Why Flavour variety packs suits Liverpool users (RELX Pro) (v2)
Flavour variety packs advice for Liverpool, covering mesh coil guide, what to look for and where the trade-offs actually sit.
There is no single best flavour variety packs for everyone in Liverpool, and anyone telling you otherwise is selling something. Charging over USB-C takes about 70 from empty, and the pass-through means the device can be used while plugged in on the smaller batteries.
The gap between a mid-range and a premium flavour variety packs narrows once you know which components you actually use. Airflow control on the Hcigar Akso is adjustable enough to move from a warm, restrained draw to something far more open without removing the tank.
Battery behaviour is where the Hcigar Akso earns its keep: the 5000 mAh cell holds a usable charge for most of a day at 40 and recharges over USB-C. We would pair the Hcigar Akso with a 65:35 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.
What surprised us most was how little the 1.2 Ω mesh coil changes the draw character compared with the 65:35 PG/VG liquid sitting in the chamber. The Graphite finish hides fingerprints far better than the gloss options, which matters more than it sounds on a device handled daily. Worth noting that the magnetic contact takes a small amount of care to keep clean, which we cover in the maintenance section below.
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. The instruction booklet is thin, but the diagrams are clear enough that most people set the device up without further help.
Build quality is the quiet differentiator here, with tight seams and a connector that has not loosened after repeated removal. Charging over USB-C takes about 70 from empty, and the pass-through means the device can be used while plugged in on the smaller batteries. Worth noting that the magnetic contact takes a small amount of care to keep clean, which we cover in the maintenance section below.

Flavour and performance notes
A representative profile is Kiwi Lime: tangy, green, described as tart kiwi balanced by lime. On a 65:35 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 USB-C are both in stock before committing, and check that the magnetic contact 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.
