Choosing Nicotine liquids: nic salt users edition (v2)
Nicotine liquids advice for Liverpool, covering storage, what to look for and where the trade-offs actually sit.
Local availability in Liverpool shapes the practical answer more than the marketing does. Replacement coils are widely available, and the 0.2 Ω dual mesh coil is the sensible default to keep in stock.
Local availability in Liverpool shapes the practical answer more than the marketing does. Vapour production is more than adequate at 40, and pushing beyond that adds heat rather than anything worth carrying.
Worth noting that the Q-Plus takes a small amount of care to keep clean, which we cover in the maintenance section below. For nic salt users, the learning curve is shorter than the specification list suggests, and daily use is straightforward from the first charge. If you take one thing from this page, make it the coil compatibility check. A device that needs a coil you cannot source locally becomes an expensive ornament within a month.
What surprised us most was how little the 0.2 Ω dual mesh coil changes the draw character compared with the 35:65 PG/VG liquid sitting in the chamber. The Deep Purple finish hides fingerprints far better than the gloss options, which matters more than it sounds on a device handled daily.

Materials are unremarkable on paper and feel reassuringly solid in the hand, with no flex in the body at all. The instruction booklet is thin, but the diagrams are clear enough that most people set the device up without further help. Flavour tracking stays consistent from the first day to roughly the 0.2 Ω dual mesh mark before the profile flattens and a swap makes sense.
Two things to check before ordering: the Micro-USB socket on the base and whether the 0.2 Ω dual mesh coil is the newer generation. Battery behaviour is where the Wismec Reuleaux earns its keep: the 1200 mAh cell holds a usable charge for most of a day at 40 and recharges over Micro-USB.

Comparing this against a 35:65 PG/VG setup shows the difference clearly: one favours flavour, the other favours volume. The 2.5 ml capacity is a genuinely useful middle ground: enough liquid for a long session without turning the device into a pocket problem. Expect roughly 1376 full puffs from a charge at 12 mg/ml, based on average session length in our testing.

Flavour and performance notes
A representative profile is Kiwi Lime: tangy, green, described as tart kiwi balanced by lime. On a 35:65 PG/VG ratio this reads clearly on the first day and holds its character to roughly the 0.2 Ω dual mesh mark before the coil begins to mute it.
Practical considerations in Liverpool
Availability in Liverpool is the factor that decides most outcomes here. Confirm the 0.2 Ω dual mesh and the Micro-USB are both in stock before committing, and check that the Q-Plus matches your existing device if you already own hardware. Duty and GBP rates move, so treat prices as current rather than fixed.
