Overview of Major Flavor Banana Ice 10mg nic salts (5 x 10ml)

This listing is for five 10ml bottles of Major Flavor nic salt e-liquid in the Banana Ice flavour, each bottle at 10mg/ml nicotine strength. In total that is 50ml of liquid and 500mg of nicotine across the pack, because each 10ml bottle at 10mg/ml holds 100mg. It sits under accessories in our catalogue because it is a consumable you use inside a refillable vape device rather than a device in its own right. There is no battery, coil or charging port in the box, so wherever this page talks about hardware it is describing the kit the liquid is meant to be used in.

Nic salts, short for nicotine salts, pair nicotine with an acid so the liquid feels smoother on the throat than traditional freebase nicotine at the same strength. That smoothness is the reason salts became the usual choice for small pod kits and mouth-to-lung devices, and it is why many people moving off cigarettes find them easier to stick with. At 10mg/ml (1.0%) this pack sits in the middle of the UK range, which runs from 0mg up to a legal ceiling of 20mg/ml for any nicotine e-liquid sold in the UK.

Banana Ice is a fruit-and-chill flavour. You get a ripe, slightly creamy banana on the inhale and a cooling finish on the exhale. It is a familiar profile for anyone who has used fruit-and-ice disposables, only here it comes in a bottle you can refill into a reusable pod or tank again and again.

• 5 x 10ml bottles of Banana Ice nic salt e-liquid, 50ml in total
• 10mg/ml nicotine (1.0%), which is half the UK legal maximum
• Designed for refillable pod kits and mouth-to-lung tanks, not high-wattage sub-ohm setups
• For adults only: you must be 18 or over to buy and use it

The five-bottle format suits people who already know they like the flavour and would rather keep a stock in the drawer than reorder a single bottle every few days. The rest of this page covers what to expect from the flavour, how long the pack lasts, which devices suit it, how to fill and use it, what to do when something goes wrong, and how it compares on value.

Specifications and what is in the pack

The figures below come from the listing itself and from how nic salt liquids are normally made. Where a value can vary between batches, such as the VG/PG ratio, the label on the bottle in your hand is the authoritative source and you should go by that.

• Product type: nic salt e-liquid, a consumable rather than a device
• Brand: Major Flavor
• Flavour: Banana Ice, banana with a cooling finish
• Bottle size: 10ml each, the largest refill size UK rules permit for nicotine e-liquid
• Quantity: five bottles, 50ml in total
• Nicotine strength: 10mg/ml (1.0%), nicotine salt form
• Nicotine content: 100mg per bottle, 500mg per pack
• Base liquid: propylene glycol (PG) and vegetable glycerine (VG) with food-grade flavourings and a cooling agent. Many nic salt liquids are close to a 50VG/50PG split, but read the label for the exact figure.
• Intended devices: refillable pod systems and mouth-to-lung tanks, typically with coils between 0.6 and 1.2 ohm
• Age restriction: 18+

A few notes on those numbers. The 10ml limit is a UK rule for refill bottles of nicotine liquid, which is why you see multipacks of 10ml bottles rather than one large bottle. The 20mg/ml ceiling applies to every nicotine e-liquid, and it is also the strength cap that governs nicotine pods and the disposable vapes that used to be common on UK shelves. Because this is a 10mg product, it is exactly half of that cap.

It helps to translate the volumes into something practical. Most refillable pods hold around 2ml, so each 10ml bottle fills a typical pod about five times and the whole pack fills one roughly 25 times. If your pod holds 3ml or 4ml the number of fills drops accordingly, but the total liquid you are buying stays the same at 50ml.

Because the pack is sold as one flavour at one strength, every bottle inside should be identical. If you want to mix flavours or strengths, buy those as separate listings rather than expecting a mixed box.

Flavour profile: what Banana Ice tastes like

Banana Ice follows a two-part structure that is common in fruit-and-cool e-liquids. The first part is the fruit. Expect a sweet, ripe banana with a soft, slightly creamy character, closer to the confectionery side of banana than to a freshly peeled fruit. It is not tart and it does not have the sharp acidity you get from citrus or berry blends. The second part is the chill, which comes from a cooling agent added to the flavour mix. It arrives mostly on the exhale and in the back of the throat, rather than hitting you on the first draw.

Sweetness is moderate to high. That suits many people who want a dessert-leaning fruit flavour, but it is worth knowing before you buy because sweet liquids tend to build residue on a coil faster than lighter ones. We cover what that means for coil life in the coil section further down.

• Inhale: rounded banana, a little candy-like, with a mild creamy undertone
• Exhale: noticeable cooling, light menthol-style freshness, banana lingering on the tongue
• Aftertaste: sweet and slightly cool, fading within a minute or two
• Intensity: medium to full, depending on wattage and how long you draw

Device settings change how the flavour comes across. At lower wattage the vapour is cooler and the banana stands forward, while the cooling effect feels gentler. Push the wattage up and the vapour warms, the sweetness thickens and the cooling agent can seem less pronounced. If you find the chill too sharp, a slightly higher wattage within the coil's printed range will take the edge off. If you want more cooling, drop the power a notch and draw slowly.

Anyone who vapes one flavour all day will eventually notice it fading, a common effect often called vaper's tongue. It is not a fault with the liquid. Switching to a different flavour for a day, drinking water, and avoiding vaping straight after coffee or a meal usually brings the taste back. Because this listing is a pack of five of the same flavour, you may want a second, different flavour on hand if you know you get bored easily.

We describe the flavour from the manufacturer's naming and from the general characteristics of this style of liquid. Taste is personal, so treat this as a guide to what to expect rather than a promise of an exact match to your preferences.

Performance and puff delivery

A bottle of liquid has no puff rating of its own the way a disposable does, so the useful question is how many puffs 50ml will give you in a real device. As a working estimate, a refillable pod kit running at about 10 to 15 watts uses roughly 1ml of liquid for every 200 to 300 puffs. That puts a 10ml bottle at around 2,000 to 3,000 puffs and the whole 50ml pack at roughly 10,000 to 15,000 puffs. As a sanity check, a 2ml disposable rated at around 600 puffs works out at about 300 puffs per millilitre, which sits at the top of that range. Your own figure will depend on puff length, wattage, airflow and coil age, so treat these as planning numbers rather than guarantees.

• Light use, about 1ml a day: a bottle lasts roughly 10 days and the pack about 50 days
• Moderate use, about 2ml a day: a bottle lasts about 5 days and the pack about 25 days
• Heavy use, about 3ml a day: a bottle lasts 3 to 4 days and the pack about 17 days

On nicotine delivery, each millilitre of this liquid contains 10mg of nicotine. Spread across 200 to 300 puffs, that is roughly 0.03 to 0.05mg of nicotine in the vapour per puff. How much you actually absorb depends on how you inhale, how long you hold the vapour and the device you use, so the figure is a ceiling for what is drawn through the coil, not what reaches your bloodstream.

Throat hit is low to moderate. Nic salts are designed to be smooth, and at 10mg/ml most people find the draw gentle compared with a freebase liquid of similar strength. The cooling agent adds a fresh sensation that some people read as throat hit, but it is a different feeling from the scratch of nicotine. Vapour production is moderate. A roughly balanced PG and VG base gives more cloud than a high-PG liquid, though nowhere near the volume of a sub-ohm setup, and that is by design for a mouth-to-lung product.

Consistency from the first fill to the last should be good as long as the coil is healthy. If flavour starts to dip while the bottle is still half full, the coil is nearly always the cause, not the liquid. A fresh coil usually restores the taste immediately. Also keep in mind that chain vaping at high power drains a pod faster and can leave the wick short of liquid, so pace yourself and let the wick refill between puffs.

Bottle design, build quality and storage

With a consumable, build quality comes down to the closure, the nozzle and the label. Nicotine e-liquid sold in the UK has to come in packaging that is child-resistant and tamper-evident, and the labelling has to carry a nicotine health warning, ingredient information and a batch reference. Expect each 10ml bottle to be soft plastic with a long, narrow nozzle that fits the small fill ports on pod devices, topped with a child-resistant cap and a tamper-evident ring that breaks the first time you open it. Check that the ring is intact when you open a new bottle. If it is already broken, or the outer packaging looks damaged, contact us before using it.

The narrow nozzle is useful, but it rewards a gentle hand. Squeeze slowly and release slowly. A hard squeeze sends a surge of liquid into the pod and is the most common cause of overfilling, which leads to leaking and gurgling later.

• Store bottles upright in a cool, dry, dark place, because heat and sunlight degrade both nicotine and flavour
• Do not leave bottles in a car, on a radiator or on a sunny windowsill
• Keep them out of reach of children and pets, since nicotine liquid is toxic if swallowed and can be absorbed through the skin
• Wash skin straight away with soap and water if liquid gets on it, and seek medical advice if it is swallowed or gets in the eyes
• Write the date you open each bottle on the label so you use the oldest first

Sealed bottles normally keep well for a year or more, but go by the best-before date printed on the label. Over time nicotine oxidises and the liquid darkens towards amber. A slightly deeper colour is normal and does not on its own mean the liquid has gone off. If it smells sour, has separated, or tastes sharper or more peppery than it did when new, do not use it.

With five bottles in the pack, open one at a time and keep the rest sealed in their original packaging. That limits exposure to air and light and keeps the later bottles tasting like the first. When a bottle is empty, do not pour any residue down the sink. Let the last drops dry on a paper towel, then check your local council's guidance on whether small plastic bottles go in household plastic recycling in your area.

Coil and mesh compatibility

Coil technology belongs to the device rather than the liquid, but the pairing decides how Banana Ice tastes and how long a coil lasts. This liquid is suited to low-wattage systems: refillable pods and mouth-to-lung tanks that use coils between about 0.6 and 1.2 ohm. Devices in that class include the Vaporesso XROS series, the SMOK Novo range, the OXVA Xlim family and the Uwell Caliburn line. We name them as examples of the type of hardware that suits the liquid, not as a recommendation of one model over another.

• Ceramic or cotton pod coils, about 0.8 to 1.2 ohm: run at roughly 8 to 12 watts, give a tight mouth-to-lung draw and make the most economical use of the liquid
• Mesh coils, about 0.6 to 0.8 ohm: run at around 12 to 18 watts, with more heating surface, so flavour and vapour are fuller and liquid use is higher
• Sub-ohm coils, under 0.5 ohm: not recommended, because at 30 watts and above a 10mg salt delivers a large volume of vapour and nicotine at once and tends to feel harsh

Always stay inside the wattage range printed on the coil. Running a coil above its range burns the cotton, shortens its life and spoils the flavour, and no liquid can fix that. Most nic salt liquids are thin enough to wick well through the small holes in a pod coil, which is one reason the format works so well in compact kits. If the label on your bottle shows a noticeably VG-heavy ratio, favour a mesh coil or a lower wattage, because thick liquid can struggle to refill a small-hole coil fast enough and that is a common cause of dry hits.

Sweet liquids leave more residue on a coil than thin, light ones, and banana flavours are towards the sweeter end. As a rough guide, expect a coil to give around one to two weeks of moderate use before the flavour flattens or a slightly burnt note appears, though ceramic coils often last longer. Replace the coil when the taste fades, not when it fails completely. A fresh coil should be left to soak for five to ten minutes before the first puff, with two or three gentle priming draws without pressing the fire button.

One firm warning: this liquid is for devices designed to be refilled. Do not try to open or modify a sealed single-use device to put bottled liquid into it. It is unsafe, it can damage the battery and it is not what those devices are built for.

Battery and charging for the device you pair it with

The liquid itself has no battery and nothing to charge, so this section is about the device you pair it with. Pod kits that suit a 10mg nic salt typically carry built-in batteries between 400mAh and 1,000mAh, and some larger pod mods go up to 1,500mAh or more. As a rough rule, a 1,000mAh battery running at about 12 watts delivers somewhere between 250 and 350 puffs per charge, which is around one millilitre of liquid. On that basis, working through the whole 50ml pack would take roughly 40 to 50 charges of a 1,000mAh device. A 500mAh battery needs charging about twice as often for the same amount of liquid, which is worth bearing in mind if you are choosing a slim kit.

• Charge with the cable supplied with the device, from a standard 5V USB adapter or computer port. Most pod kits charge over USB-C in 30 to 60 minutes.
• Do not charge on a bed, sofa or other soft surface, and do not leave a device charging unattended overnight.
• Stop using any device that is swollen, hot to the touch or has a damaged casing, and recycle it rather than carrying on.
• Do not carry a device loose in a pocket with keys or coins, and lock or switch it off when it is in a bag.
• If the battery drains faster than usual, check for liquid in the charging port or the pod connector and wipe it with a dry cotton bud.

A refillable system also makes sense from a waste point of view. Single-use vapes have not been allowed to be sold in the UK since 1 June 2025, and refilling a reusable pod from a bottle avoids throwing away a battery with every few hundred puffs.

Even so, devices, built-in batteries and pods with electrical contacts count as waste electrical and electronic equipment. They should never go in the household bin or the ordinary recycling collection, because a damaged lithium battery can start a fire in a bin lorry or sorting plant. Use a vape recycling drop-off point instead. Retailers that sell vapes have take-back responsibilities under the waste electrical rules, many household waste recycling centres have a small electricals container that accepts them, and some supermarkets have small electricals bins near the entrance. Empty any remaining liquid into a paper towel first, and check with your local council for the nearest drop-off.

Nicotine strength guidance for 10mg/ml

Nicotine strength is the most important choice with a nic salt, and 10mg/ml is a mid-range option. The guide below is general information, not medical advice.

• 3 to 6mg: light vapers, people who have already stepped down from higher strengths, and those who vape mainly out of habit
• 10mg: moderate users, people who used to smoke around 10 to 15 cigarettes a day, and anyone stepping down from 20mg
• 18 to 20mg: heavier smokers, or people who smoke within half an hour of waking. 20mg/ml is the legal maximum in the UK.

Salts feel different from freebase. They are absorbed faster and are smoother going down, so the same number of milligrams usually feels stronger and more satisfying than a freebase liquid, without the harsh throat hit. That means a 10mg salt can be enough for people who were used to a higher freebase strength. If you are coming from a 20mg disposable, which is the strength cap that applied to disposables and pods in the UK, 10mg is half the nicotine per millilitre. Some people find they take a few more puffs at first and then settle. If you are deliberately cutting down on nicotine, 10mg is a sensible half-step.

Signs the strength is not right for you:

• Too high: dizziness, nausea, headache, sweating, a racing heart or a harsh throat. Stop, sit down, drink some water and choose a lower strength or slower puffs next time.
• Too low: constant puffing, cravings that return within minutes, or drifting back to cigarettes. Consider a higher strength rather than very frequent vaping.

If you buy another nic salt in the same flavour at 20mg, mixing it with this one in equal parts gives about 15mg. Only mix nic salt with nic salt, and never add nicotine shots to a ready-made liquid.

The NHS position is that vaping is far less harmful than smoking but is not risk-free, and that it is aimed at adults who smoke and want to stop. If you do not smoke, do not start. A local stop smoking service can combine vaping with behavioural support, which improves the odds of quitting for good. If you are pregnant, have a heart condition or take regular medication, speak to your GP or pharmacist before using any nicotine product.

Who this pack is for, and who should skip it

Banana Ice at 10mg suits a fairly specific group of people. If you recognise yourself in the first list below, it is a sensible buy. If you recognise yourself in the second, a different product will serve you better.

Good fit:

• Adult smokers who are switching to vaping and want a smooth, moderate-strength salt
• Vapers moving from disposables to a refillable pod kit to cut running costs and waste
• People stepping down from 20mg who want a lower nicotine hit without losing the satisfaction of a salt
• Anyone who already likes fruit-and-cool flavours and wants a stock of one reliable bottle
• Owners of pod systems and mouth-to-lung tanks with coils from about 0.6 to 1.2 ohm

Better to skip:

• Anyone under 18. It is illegal to sell nicotine vapes to under-18s in the UK, and we will not knowingly do so.
• Non-smokers. Nicotine is addictive and there is no benefit to starting.
• Anyone who is pregnant, has a heart condition or takes regular medication, until they have spoken to a healthcare professional.
• Sub-ohm and high-wattage vapers, who will find a 10mg salt too harsh at that power and should look at lower-strength freebase liquids instead.
• Anyone who dislikes cooling agents. If you do not enjoy menthol or ice flavours, choose a non-ice banana or another fruit flavour.
• Heavy smokers who need 20mg to stay off cigarettes. This listing is 10mg only, so look at the 20mg options instead.
• People who want variety in one order, because all five bottles in this pack are the same flavour.

On the legal side, the sale and use rules are the same wherever you buy. Nicotine e-liquid in the UK is capped at 20mg/ml and 10ml per refill bottle, and you must be 18 or over. We may ask for age verification at checkout or on delivery, and a courier can refuse to hand over an order if the person receiving it cannot show they are an adult.

How to fill, prime and use the liquid

Using bottled liquid is simple, but a few habits make a big difference to flavour, leaks and coil life. Follow the steps below the first time and they will quickly become routine.

• Check the bottle. Make sure the tamper-evident ring is intact and look at the best-before date on the label.
• Prepare the device. Wash and dry your hands, switch the device off or lock it, and remove the pod if it is detachable.
• Open the fill port. Pull out the silicone plug or slide back the cover, depending on the model.
• Fill slowly. Press the child-resistant cap as the label directs and twist it off. Rest the nozzle against the side of the fill port and squeeze gently so the liquid runs down the wall rather than splashing into the centre chimney. Stop at or just below the maximum fill line.
• Close up and wipe. Re-seat the plug, wipe off any drips from the pod and the bottle nozzle, then refit the cap firmly.
• Let it soak. Wait five to ten minutes so the cotton wick saturates, which avoids a dry first puff.
• Prime. Refit the pod, take two or three gentle draws without pressing the button, then start at the lower end of the recommended wattage.

For mouth-to-lung vaping, draw slowly for two to four seconds, hold the vapour in your mouth for a moment, then inhale it into your lungs and exhale. Slow, unforced draws give cleaner flavour and keep the coil from overheating. Because salts deliver nicotine efficiently, take it easy for the first few sessions and see how a single bottle feels before you settle on how often you vape.

Keep a few other habits in mind. Do not top up a pod that is already full of a different flavour, as the two will muddle and you will not know which one you are tasting. Do not add nicotine shots, flavour concentrates or any other additive to the liquid. Do not fill above the max line, and do not use the liquid in a device that is not designed for refilling. Return the bottle to a cool, dark spot after each use, and keep the rest of the pack sealed until you need it.

Troubleshooting common problems

Most problems that look like a liquid fault turn out to be coil, fill level or device issues. Work through these in order before assuming the bottle is at fault.

• Leaking or gurgling: usually overfilling or a poorly seated pod. Wipe the pod and connector dry, make sure the plug is fully pushed in, store the device upright, and fill only to the line next time.
• Dry or burnt taste: the wick is not saturated or the coil is worn. Refill, wait five to ten minutes, take gentle draws and lower the wattage. If it persists, change the coil.
• Flavour seems weak: the likely causes are a tired coil, wattage that is too low, or vaper's tongue. Fit a fresh coil, nudge the power up within its range, or switch to another flavour for a day or two.
• Harsh or too strong: either the nicotine is too high for you or the wattage is too high. Lower the power, take slower draws and, if needed, move to a lower strength.
• Spitting or crackling: liquid has reached the chimney or mouthpiece. Remove the pod and blow gently through the mouthpiece to clear it, then wipe it dry. Do not inhale to clear it.
• Device not firing or flashing: check the battery, make sure the pod is seated, and clean the contacts with a dry cotton bud. Try a different charger if it will not charge.
• Sticky residue or a dark coil: normal for sweet liquids over time. Replace the coil and wipe down the pod.
• Bottle will not open: the closure is child-resistant. Follow the instructions on the cap, which usually mean pressing down while twisting.

If the liquid itself seems wrong, for example it smells sour, looks cloudy or separated, or tastes noticeably different from the other bottles in the pack, stop using that bottle. Keep it, take a photo of the label and batch number, and contact us with your order number so we can look into it.

Finally, if you feel unwell while vaping, with nausea, dizziness, headache or a racing heart, stop and rest. Those are signs you have taken in more nicotine than you are used to. If symptoms are severe or do not pass, seek medical advice.

Value for money and how it compares

The easiest way to judge value on a nic salt pack is cost per millilitre. Take the pack price and divide it by 50 to get a figure you can compare directly with other bottles. Multi-buy packs like this one usually lower the per-bottle cost compared with buying five singles, and you avoid reordering and paying for delivery as often.

The comparison with disposables is more striking. At around 250 puffs per millilitre, 50ml equates to roughly 12,500 puffs. A 600-puff disposable would need to be replaced about 21 times to match that, and each one comes with a battery, plastic casing and a short lifespan. A refillable kit costs more upfront for the device and costs a little extra for replacement coils, but the running cost per puff is much lower for most regular vapers, and there is far less waste to dispose of.

How does it stack up against other brands? Banana-and-ice nic salts are sold by plenty of UK brands, and well-known names such as Elf Liq, IVG, Pod Salt and Nasty Salt all sell fruit-and-cool 10ml salts in similar strengths. Here is a fair summary of where Major Flavor sits among them:

• Strengths: 10mg is a useful mid-point that many ranges handle only in a few flavours, the pack of five lowers the effective bottle price, and the flavour is easy to recognise for anyone used to fruit-and-ice disposables.
• Trade-offs: the pack is one flavour at one strength, so there is no variety, and the cooling agent will not appeal to everyone. Banana flavours are also sweet, which can shorten coil life.
• Where others may win: bigger brands often have wider flavour lists and more strength options, and some offer additional ratios or bottle formats. If you want to try several flavours before committing to a pack, singles from a broader range may suit you better.

We have not run lab tests against competing liquids, so differences in sweetness, creaminess and cooling are described in general terms rather than as measured results. The honest summary is that this pack is good value for someone who already knows they like banana ice at 10mg and has a compatible low-wattage device. If you are not sure about the flavour, buy a single bottle first and commit to a multi-pack once you are confident.
