Choosing Nicotine salt liquids: flavour seekers edition (Vaporesso Tarot)
Nicotine salt liquids advice for Scotland, covering coil types, what to look for and where the trade-offs actually sit.
The gap between a mid-range and a premium nicotine salt liquids narrows once you know which components you actually use. Comparing this against a 30:70 PG/VG setup shows the difference clearly: one favours flavour, the other favours volume.
The gap between a mid-range and a premium nicotine salt liquids narrows once you know which components you actually use. Vapour production is more than adequate at 25, and pushing beyond that adds heat rather than anything worth carrying.
Pricing in Scotland shifts with import duty, so the figures here reflect current GBP rates rather than a fixed list price. Airflow control on the RELX Pro is adjustable enough to move from a warm, restrained draw to something far more open without removing the tank. Vapour production is more than adequate at 25, and pushing beyond that adds heat rather than anything worth carrying.
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 0.6 Ω mesh mark before the profile flattens and a swap makes sense. In Scotland, availability of the 0.6 Ω mesh coil is the practical bottleneck, not the device itself.
Charging over Micro-USB takes about 86 from empty, and the pass-through means the device can be used while plugged in on the smaller batteries. Two things to check before ordering: the Micro-USB socket on the base and whether the 0.6 Ω mesh coil is the newer generation. Battery behaviour is where the RELX Pro earns its keep: the 1200 mAh cell holds a usable charge for most of a day at 25 and recharges over Micro-USB.
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. The throat hit is noticeably firmer than a 30:70 PG/VG blend, so if you prefer a smoother draw, mix accordingly. The silicone tip mouthpiece is comfortable over long sessions and resists the condensation that gathers on narrower tips.
Worth noting that the Q-Plus takes a small amount of care to keep clean, which we cover in the maintenance section below. For flavour seekers, the learning curve is shorter than the specification list suggests, and daily use is straightforward from the first charge.

Flavour and performance notes
A representative profile is Blue Raspberry Frost: sweet, tangy, described as sharp blue raspberry with a long cold finish. On a 30:70 PG/VG ratio this reads clearly on the first day and holds its character to roughly the 0.6 Ω mesh mark before the coil begins to mute it.
Practical considerations in Scotland
Availability in Scotland is the factor that decides most outcomes here. Confirm the 0.6 Ω 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.
Our advice is to order one, use it for a fortnight, and only then decide whether to stock up.
