How to pick Tanks and clearomizers in Liverpool (40 W) (v3)
Tanks and clearomizers advice for Liverpool, covering explained, what to look for and where the trade-offs actually sit.
We spent weeks putting tanks and clearomizers options through their paces so the recommendations here reflect real use. In Liverpool, availability of the 1.2 Ω mesh coil is the practical bottleneck, not the device itself.
Local availability in Liverpool shapes the practical answer more than the marketing does. Flavour tracking stays consistent from the first day to roughly the 1.2 Ω mesh mark before the profile flattens and a swap makes sense.
Battery behaviour is where the RELX Pro earns its keep: the 800 mAh cell holds a usable charge for most of a day at 40 and recharges over Type-C fast charge. We would pair the RELX Pro with a 50:50 PG/VG liquid, which is where the balance between throat hit and cloud density sits most comfortably. Replacement coils are widely available, and the 1.2 Ω mesh coil is the sensible default to keep in stock.
Expect roughly 1242 full puffs from a charge at 12 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.
What surprised us most was how little the 1.2 Ω mesh coil changes the draw character compared with the 50:50 PG/VG liquid sitting in the chamber. The Ocean Teal finish hides fingerprints far better than the gloss options, which matters more than it sounds on a device handled daily. Worth noting that the Q-Plus takes a small amount of care to keep clean, which we cover in the maintenance section below.
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 40, 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.

Flavour and performance notes
A representative profile is Mango Tango Ice: sweet, tropical, described as ripe mango warmed by a light menthol coolness. On a 50:50 PG/VG ratio this reads clearly on the first day and holds its character to roughly the 1.2 Ω 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 1.2 Ω mesh and the Type-C fast charge 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.
