yes, but because the MPT3 is dual coil, the wick channels in the side are bigger than in the single coil heads so you will need to add a second piece of wick above the coil to fill the channels so they don't leak.  Don't throw your old used heads away

OK, here goes, I'll try to make this as simple as I can (only so I don't confuse myself!).
The stock (shop-bought) dual-coil heads that you buy have 'open' coils, where the wraps of wire don't actually touch. Two coils are better than one, as it spreads the load of the power from the battery, meaning that they last longer.
A microcoil is constructed so that the wraps all touch (by heating the coil and squeezing the wraps together using tweezers) and they are virtually indestructible. A good microcoil will last at least 6 weeks, if not a whole lot longer, and just requires a dry burn (where you remove the old wick and pulse the power to the coil until it glows red). Then you can rewick with a choice of materials (I prefer rayon, some prefer cotton). These wicks will last the best part of a week, and once you know the procedure take only a couple of minutes to rewick.
If you can, get along to a vapemeet so someone can show you how easy it is, and the techniques for rewicking too.
