Tanks and clearomizers maintenance guide (Wismec Reuleaux)
Tanks and clearomizers advice for Liverpool, covering side-by-side test, what to look for and where the trade-offs actually sit.
Budget matters in Liverpool, but with tanks and clearomizers the cheapest option is rarely the one that lasts. Pricing in Liverpool shifts with import duty, so the figures here reflect current GBP rates rather than a fixed list price.
Local availability in Liverpool shapes the practical answer more than the marketing does. Delivery across Liverpool is typically two to four working days with tracked dispatch, and returns are straightforward within the standard window.
What surprised us most was how little the 0.2 Ω dual mesh coil changes the draw character compared with the 80:20 PG/VG liquid sitting in the chamber. The Stealth Grey finish hides fingerprints far better than the gloss options, which matters more than it sounds on a device handled daily. Worth noting that the 510 bottom pin takes a small amount of care to keep clean, which we cover in the maintenance section below.
Pricing in Liverpool shifts with import duty, so the figures here reflect current GBP rates rather than a fixed list price. Airflow control on the Kanger K2 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 120, and pushing beyond that adds heat rather than anything worth carrying.
Build quality is the quiet differentiator here, with tight seams and a connector that has not loosened after repeated removal. Charging over Micro-USB takes about 64 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 0.2 Ω dual mesh coil is the newer generation.
The silicone tip mouthpiece is comfortable over long sessions and resists the condensation that gathers on narrower tips. Comparing this against a 80:20 PG/VG setup shows the difference clearly: one favours flavour, the other favours volume. The 6.5 ml capacity is a genuinely useful middle ground: enough liquid for a long session without turning the device into a pocket problem.
The included spare coils are useful for the first fortnight, after which you will be ordering your own. In Liverpool, availability of the 0.2 Ω dual mesh coil is the practical bottleneck, not the device itself. For pod fans, the learning curve is shorter than the specification list suggests, and daily use is straightforward from the first charge.
The throat hit is noticeably firmer than a 80:20 PG/VG blend, so if you prefer a smoother draw, mix accordingly. The build quality on Kanger K2 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. Expect roughly 1768 full puffs from a charge at 0 mg/ml, based on average session length in our testing.

Flavour and performance notes
A representative profile is Peach Blossom: sweet, delicate, described as soft white peach with a floral edge. On a 80:20 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 510 bottom pin matches your existing device if you already own hardware. Duty and GBP rates move, so treat prices as current rather than fixed.
