Saline nicotine liquids for nic salt users: what works (v2)
Saline nicotine liquids advice for Liverpool, covering complete guide, what to look for and where the trade-offs actually sit.
The gap between a mid-range and a premium saline nicotine liquids narrows once you know which components you actually use. Two things to check before ordering: the Type-C fast charge socket on the base and whether the 1.5 Ω regular coil is the newer generation.
Local availability in Liverpool shapes the practical answer more than the marketing does. Charging over Type-C fast charge takes about 57 from empty, and the pass-through means the device can be used while plugged in on the smaller batteries.
Vapour production is more than adequate at 90, and pushing beyond that adds heat rather than anything worth carrying. 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.
Replacement coils are widely available, and the 1.5 Ω regular coil is the sensible default to keep in stock. The included spare coils are useful for the first fortnight, after which you will be ordering your own. What surprised us most was how little the 1.5 Ω regular coil changes the draw character compared with the 20:80 PG/VG liquid sitting in the chamber.
Worth noting that the 510-X 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. Flavour tracking stays consistent from the first day to roughly the 1.5 Ω regular mark before the profile flattens and a swap makes sense.
Two things to check before ordering: the Type-C fast charge socket on the base and whether the 1.5 Ω regular 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 90 and recharges over Type-C fast 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.
Expect roughly 650 full puffs from a charge at 0 mg/ml, based on average session length in our testing. Delivery across Liverpool is typically two to four working days with tracked dispatch, and returns are straightforward within the standard window. The build quality on RELX Pro is a step above most of what sits in the same price bracket, and the finish resists the chipping that usually shows after a few months of pocket carry.
We would pair the RELX Pro with a 20:80 PG/VG liquid, which is where the balance between throat hit and cloud density sits most comfortably. In Liverpool, availability of the 1.5 Ω regular coil is the practical bottleneck, not the device itself. The narrow bore mouthpiece is comfortable over long sessions and resists the condensation that gathers on narrower tips.

Flavour and performance notes
A representative profile is Cinnamon Danish: sweet, spiced, described as cinnamon pastry with a light glaze. On a 20:80 PG/VG ratio this reads clearly on the first day and holds its character to roughly the 1.5 Ω regular 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 1.5 Ω regular and the Type-C fast charge are both in stock before committing, and check that the 510-X matches your existing device if you already own hardware. Duty and GBP rates move, so treat prices as current rather than fixed.
