    In the common day-to-day shops, they seemed to phase out the earlier refillable/repairable/replaceable ones for “disposable” tops. Even the e-cig shops near us stopped selling the cotton wadding and pre-coiled wires for rebuildables.

    With a rebuildable one, I was using a 5x50mm strip of cotton wadding and an 8cm length of very thin wire every month or so. These pod things seem to use a coil, wadding, heating element, metal case, plastic case, spring, screw etc every few days.
