Nicotine liquids test report in Scotland (4000 mAh)
Nicotine liquids advice for Scotland, covering test report, what to look for and where the trade-offs actually sit.
There is no single best nicotine liquids for everyone in Scotland, and anyone telling you otherwise is selling something. Worth noting that the Q-Plus takes a small amount of care to keep clean, which we cover in the maintenance section below.
There is no single best nicotine liquids for everyone in Scotland, and anyone telling you otherwise is selling something. What surprised us most was how little the 0.8 Ω regular coil changes the draw character compared with the 80:20 PG/VG liquid sitting in the chamber.
Two things to check before ordering: the Type-C fast charge socket on the base and whether the 0.8 Ω regular coil is the newer generation. Battery behaviour is where the Innokin X earns its keep: the 1500 mAh cell holds a usable charge for most of a day at 40 and recharges over Type-C fast charge. We would pair the Innokin X with a 80:20 PG/VG liquid, which is where the balance between throat hit and cloud density sits most comfortably.
Comparing this against a 80:20 PG/VG setup shows the difference clearly: one favours flavour, the other favours volume. The 2.5 ml capacity is a genuinely useful middle ground: enough liquid for a long session without turning the device into a pocket problem. Expect roughly 1446 full puffs from a charge at 6 mg/ml, based on average session length in our testing.
Replacement coils are widely available, and the 0.8 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 0.8 Ω regular coil changes the draw character compared with the 80:20 PG/VG liquid sitting in the chamber.
The build quality on Innokin X 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. Build quality is the quiet differentiator here, with tight seams and a connector that has not loosened after repeated removal. The Midnight Black finish hides fingerprints far better than the gloss options, which matters more than it sounds on a device handled daily.
For disposable buyers, the learning curve is shorter than the specification list suggests, and daily use is straightforward from the first 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. The throat hit is noticeably firmer than a 80:20 PG/VG blend, so if you prefer a smoother draw, mix accordingly.

Flavour and performance notes
A representative profile is Blueberry Muffin: creamy, sweet, described as baked blueberry with a soft crumb. On a 80:20 PG/VG ratio this reads clearly on the first day and holds its character to roughly the 0.8 Ω regular 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 0.8 Ω regular 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.
