Overview: what Yeti Original 100ml Citrus Freeze is

Yeti Original 100ml Citrus Freeze is a shortfill e-liquid from the Yeti range, built around a citrus fruit profile with a cooling finish. It is sold as 100ml of nicotine-free liquid, which means you decide on your own nicotine strength by adding nicotine shots, or you can vape it at 0mg if you prefer no nicotine at all. This guide covers what the liquid is, how it behaves in different devices, how to mix it to a strength that suits you, and how it compares with other options open to UK vapers.

Here are the core specifications, with a note on where a figure should be checked against the label on your own bottle:

• Product: Yeti Original 100ml Citrus Freeze, e-liquid in shortfill format.
• Liquid volume: 100ml.
• Bottle size: shortfills in this format normally ship in a 120ml bottle, which leaves headroom for two 10ml nicotine shots. Confirm on the packaging.
• Nicotine as supplied: 0mg/ml.
• VG/PG balance: 70VG/30PG is the usual shortfill ratio and suits sub-ohm devices. Check the label for the exact split.
• Flavour: citrus fruit with a cooling exhale.
• Device type: sub-ohm tanks, mesh coils and direct-to-lung (DTL) setups are the natural match.
• Age restriction: 18+ only, and intended for adult smokers and existing vapers.

Why does a 100ml bottle exist at all? UK rules limit refill bottles that contain nicotine to 10ml, cap nicotine strength at 20mg/ml, and cap tank capacity at 2ml. A shortfill gets around the bottle-size limit by being sold with no nicotine in it. The nicotine arrives separately in 10ml shots, usually at 18mg/ml, which sits under the 20mg/ml ceiling. That same 20mg/ml cap applied to disposable vapes before single-use devices were prohibited for sale in Great Britain in June 2025, and it still governs every nicotine e-liquid, pod and shot sold at retail today.

One honest framing point: this is a liquid, not a device. It has no battery and no puff counter, so figures like mAh and puff count only mean something once the liquid is in your own kit. Where those numbers matter in the sections below, they are worked out from typical sub-ohm use and labelled as estimates rather than measurements. If you are a smoker coming from disposables, a refillable setup takes a little more learning than a pre-filled device, but the running cost per millilitre is lower, which is the main reason many adult vapers make the switch.

Flavour profile: citrus fruit with a cooling finish

Flavour is subjective, so treat this section as a description of how citrus-and-cooling blends of this type usually present, rather than a promise about every palate. Citrus Freeze sits in the fruit-and-ice family. The name points to two layers: a bright citrus fruit character on the inhale, and a cool, fresh finish as you breathe out.

Here is how the profile typically unfolds across a single puff:

• Inhale: a sharp, juicy citrus top note, in the territory of lemon, lime or orange peel rather than a sweet squash. Citrus flavourings tend to read as clean and slightly tart.
• Middle: a rounded, lightly sweet fruit body that takes the edge off the tartness. The sweetness level in liquids like this is usually moderate, so it should not feel syrupy.
• Exhale: a cooling sensation across the tongue and the back of the throat. This comes from cooling agents rather than from the fruit itself, and it is what the word freeze refers to.

Several things change how that profile reaches you. Power is the first. At lower wattage the citrus tends to taste crisper and the cooling effect is gentler. Pushing the wattage up makes vapour warmer and thicker, which can mute the sharper top notes and make the sweetness more obvious. Nicotine is the second. Adding shots dilutes the flavour concentrate slightly: two 10ml shots in a 100ml bottle add 20% more volume, so the flavour is roughly one sixth weaker than in the unmixed bottle. Most people find this unnoticeable, but if you like a strong flavour you can run the liquid with one shot instead of two or drop to 0mg.

Coil condition matters more than most people expect. A fresh coil shows off the citrus clearly. As a coil ages, sweeteners and cooling agents build up on the cotton, the fruit dulls, and the liquid can start to taste flat or slightly burnt. If a bottle that tasted bright on day one seems muted by day ten, a new coil is usually the fix rather than a problem with the liquid.

Cooling blends can also cause what vapers call flavour fatigue. After a few days on a single profile your taste buds adapt and the flavour seems to fade. Keeping a second, different bottle for a change of pace, or rinsing your mouth with water between sessions, helps. If you have not tried a cooling profile before, bear in mind that the freeze element can feel intense on a dry throat, and that it is a matter of taste rather than quality. Anyone who dislikes menthol-style coolness should consider a non-cooled citrus instead.

As a daily vape, a citrus-and-ice profile is lighter than a dessert or tobacco flavour, and many people pair it with water or black coffee because it does not clash. It will not taste like fresh fruit juice, and it is not meant to. Think of it as a fruit-forward, refreshing flavour built to be vaped in volume.

Performance and puff delivery

The performance of any shortfill comes down to three variables: the VG/PG balance, your coil and wattage, and your nicotine strength. At 70VG/30PG, Citrus Freeze is aimed at devices that make dense vapour at moderate to high power. A higher VG share produces thicker, cooler, larger clouds and a smoother feel in the throat. The 30% PG keeps the liquid thin enough to wick through a mesh coil and carries the flavour.

In practice you can expect the following:

• Vapour production: generous in a sub-ohm tank at 40 to 70W, with a soft, full-bodied vapour rather than a sharp one.
• Throat hit: light at 0 to 3mg and moderate at 6mg. The cooling agents add a sensation of freshness that some people mistake for throat hit, so do not raise nicotine just because the first puff feels cool rather than strong.
• Flavour delivery: easiest to judge at the middle of your coil's wattage range, where it is warm enough to bring out the fruit but not so hot that it dulls the top notes.
• Consistency: wicking is generally reliable in a sub-ohm mesh coil. It can struggle in a tight, high-resistance pod coil, which is covered in the coil section.

How many puffs is 100ml? There is no official figure, because it depends entirely on your device and your puffing style. As a planning estimate, direct-to-lung vapers at 50 to 70W commonly use somewhere around 30 to 60 puffs per millilitre. That would put a 100ml bottle in the range of roughly 3,000 to 6,000 puffs, falling at the lower end if you run high wattage and long draws, and rising at the upper end if you vape gently. Compare that with a typical 2ml pre-filled device marketed at around 600 puffs: the numbers are not directly comparable because those devices run at far lower power, but they show why the per-puff cost of shortfills is lower.

You can cross-check the estimate against consumption. A moderate sub-ohm vaper commonly gets through 3 to 5ml a day. At that rate, 100ml lasts about 20 to 33 days, and the 120ml you have once shots are added lasts about 24 to 40 days. Heavier or lighter use moves those numbers in the obvious direction.

It is also worth being clear about what performance cannot do. A 70VG liquid will not turn a small low-power pod into a cloud machine, and it will not deliver the immediate nicotine hit of a 20mg nicotine-salt liquid. The nicotine delivery from a 3mg freebase mix in a sub-ohm tank comes from taking larger, longer draws, which is a different style of vaping from the quick, tight draws many smokers are used to. If that is a big change for you, take a few days to adjust your puffing before you decide whether the strength is right.

Design and build quality: bottle, label and packaging

Because this is an e-liquid, design and build quality means the bottle, the nozzle, the cap and the label. Shortfill bottles in this size are typically soft plastic with a fine nozzle, in the style often called a chubby gorilla or squeezy bottle. The soft sides let you squeeze liquid out steadily, and the narrow tip is made to fit into the fill port of most modern tanks without spilling.

Here is what to look at when your bottle arrives:

• Tamper seal: the cap should have an intact tamper-evident ring. If the ring is broken or missing, contact the retailer before using the liquid.
• Child-resistant cap: many bottles also include a child-resistant mechanism. Even where a shortfill contains no nicotine, it will contain nicotine after you add shots, so treat it as a nicotine product from the moment you mix it.
• Nozzle: the tip should be clean and straight. Do not cut or trim it, as a wider hole makes it much easier to overfill a tank and makes leaks more likely.
• Label: look for the product name, volume, VG/PG ratio, batch number, best-before date, ingredients, and the required health warning. The batch code is useful if you ever need to report a problem.
• Headroom: the unfilled space in the bottle is deliberate. It is the room for your nicotine shots, so do not top it up with other liquid.

Storage and shelf life. E-liquid keeps well in a cool, dark place, away from direct sunlight and radiators. Heat and UV can darken the liquid and dull the flavour over time. Sealed bottles commonly stay in good condition for 12 to 24 months, but check the best-before date on your batch. After you have mixed in nicotine, keep the bottle upright, capped, and out of reach of children and pets. Wipe the nozzle after each fill to stop sticky residue gathering on the cap and the threads.

Disposal. Empty bottles should be thoroughly drained and, where your local council accepts that type of plastic, rinsed and placed in household plastic recycling. Rules vary by council area, so check before you recycle. Empty nicotine shot bottles should be treated the same way once empty and rinsed. Anything with nicotine liquid still in it should not be poured down the sink or put in a recycling bin, so use up the contents or ask your local household waste recycling centre what they accept.

In terms of quality, what matters most is consistency from one bottle to the next: the same flavour, the same colour, and a nozzle that fits your tank. If the liquid arrives noticeably thicker, thinner, or a different colour from your previous bottle, check the batch number and talk to the retailer.

Coil and mesh technology: matching the liquid to your tank

The coil is the part of your device that heats the liquid, and it is the single biggest factor in how Citrus Freeze performs. A 70VG liquid is thick, so it needs a coil with a wide wicking surface and enough power to vaporise it efficiently. That is why this style of shortfill and a sub-ohm mesh coil are normally paired.

These are the coil types and how they work with this liquid:

• Sub-ohm mesh coils (0.15 to 0.3 ohm): the natural match. A mesh sheet has a large surface area in contact with the cotton, which draws thick liquid in quickly and heats it evenly. Typical power ranges are 40 to 70W, and the range is printed on the side of the coil.
• Sub-ohm round-wire coils (0.3 to 0.6 ohm): work well at lower power, with a somewhat warmer vape and slightly less vapour than mesh.
• High-resistance pod coils (0.8 to 1.2 ohm): usually not suitable. A tight pod coil can struggle to wick 70VG and may produce dry, burnt hits. A small number of pod kits are designed for high-VG liquid at 0.6 to 0.8 ohm and 15 to 30W, so check your manufacturer's guidance.

Priming is not optional. A new coil needs to be saturated before you fire it. Put a few drops of liquid directly onto the cotton through the coil's fill holes, fill the tank, and let it sit for five to ten minutes. Then take a couple of draws without pressing the fire button, and start at the lowest wattage in the coil's range. Skipping this step is the most common cause of a burnt first coil.

Wattage. Begin at the bottom of the range printed on the coil and work upwards in small steps until the flavour and vapour feel right. For a 0.2 ohm mesh coil with a 40 to 70W range, many users settle in the middle of that range. If the vapour feels hot or harsh, drop 5W. If the flavour feels thin, add 5W. Citrus and cooling blends often taste cleaner at the lower half of the range.

Coil life. Sweeteners and cooling agents can leave residue on cotton, and coil life varies a great deal with power and habits. A typical sub-ohm mesh coil lasts somewhere between one and three weeks for a daily vaper. Signs that a coil has reached the end are a muted or burnt taste, reduced vapour, and gurgling or spitting. Changing the coil is cheaper than abandoning a bottle that is actually fine.

Finally, airflow counts. Direct-to-lung vaping uses an open airflow setting that cools the vapour and carries the flavour. Closing the airflow concentrates both warmth and strength, which suits some people but can make cooling blends feel sharper.

Battery and charging: powering the setup

E-liquid does not have a battery of its own, so this section is about the battery in the device you vape it from. The power source affects both the number of puffs per charge and how much of the liquid you get through between charges.

Here is how the common battery formats compare:

• Removable 18650 cells: typically 2,500 to 3,500mAh. Used in many mods, and the cells can be swapped and charged in an external charger.
• Removable 21700 cells: typically 4,000 to 5,000mAh. Longer runtime for the same power draw.
• Built-in batteries in all-in-one and pod kits: usually 800 to 3,000mAh, charged through USB-C.

What does 3,000mAh give you? As a rough calculation, a 3,000mAh cell at 3.7V stores about 11Wh of energy. At 50W, and allowing for some conversion loss, that is a little over 11 minutes of firing time. With 4-second puffs, that is somewhere around 170 puffs per charge. At 60W the figure falls to roughly 140 puffs. At 25W it roughly doubles. A single 100ml bottle, at 3,000 to 6,000 puffs, therefore represents somewhere between 18 and 35 full charges of a 3,000mAh cell at 50W, so battery life matters for daily vapers.

Charging safely:

• Use the charger supplied with the device, or one with the correct rating. Avoid cheap unbranded chargers.
• Charge on a hard, flat, non-flammable surface and never under a pillow or on a bed.
• Do not leave batteries charging unattended overnight if you can avoid it.
• Check wraps on removable cells. If a wrap is torn, stop using the cell and replace it.
• Do not carry loose cells in a pocket with coins or keys. Use a plastic case.
• Keep devices out of a hot car or direct sunlight.

Recycling. Vape devices and batteries should never go in the household bin or kerbside recycling. Lithium cells can cause fires in bin lorries and recycling plants. UK retailers that sell vaping products are expected to accept old devices and batteries back, and you can also use vape-recycling drop-off points listed through the Recycle Your Electricals locator, or take them to your local household waste recycling centre. Many vape shops have a collection bin by the counter. Tape over the terminals of any loose cell before you drop it off.

If you are moving from a small pod to a larger sub-ohm device to use this liquid, bear in mind that the bigger power draw means more frequent charging. A spare cell or a device with a 21700 battery is a sensible choice for heavier users.

Nicotine strength guidance

Choosing a nicotine strength is the most important decision you make with a shortfill, and it is worth taking slowly. Citrus Freeze is supplied at 0mg/ml. Everything else comes from the shots you add. Nicotine is addictive. If you do not smoke or vape, do not start. This product is for adult smokers and vapers only.

The UK cap on retail e-liquid is 20mg/ml, which is why nicotine shots are normally sold at 18mg/ml in 10ml bottles. Here is what you get when you mix 18mg/ml shots into a 100ml shortfill in a 120ml bottle:

• No shots: 0mg/ml. For nicotine-free vaping or for experienced ex-smokers who no longer want nicotine.
• One 10ml shot: about 1.6mg/ml (180mg of nicotine in 110ml). A light strength for occasional vapers or people stepping down.
• Two 10ml shots: 3mg/ml (360mg in 120ml). The usual starting point for sub-ohm vaping and the strength most shortfill bottles are designed around.
• Three shots or more: there is no room for them in the standard bottle, and you would need a larger empty bottle. At three shots the strength is about 4.2mg/ml. Higher strengths are usually unnecessary in a sub-ohm tank.

Matching strength to your habits:

• Light to moderate smokers moving to vaping usually start at 3mg/ml.
• Heavier smokers sometimes need 6mg/ml, but at that level a high-power sub-ohm vape can feel harsh. Raise strength gradually rather than all at once.
• If you previously used 10 to 20mg/ml nicotine salts in a small pod, expect to take bigger and more frequent puffs on a sub-ohm device to get the same nicotine, and expect the first week to feel different.
• Higher wattage delivers more liquid per puff, so more nicotine per puff. If your device runs at 60W, you may find 3mg is plenty.

Freebase versus salt shots. Most shots are freebase nicotine. Nicotine salt shots are smoother at high strengths but, at the low overall strength you get when you dilute a shot into 100ml, they offer little advantage. For this reason, freebase shots are the usual choice.

Signs the strength is wrong. If you feel dizzy, sweaty, nauseous or lightheaded, stop and take a break: the strength is probably too high. If you keep taking more puffs than you want to, and cravings return quickly, the strength may be too low. Adjust by one step at a time. Anyone who is pregnant, who has a medical condition, or who takes regular medication should speak to a healthcare professional before using nicotine products.

Who Citrus Freeze is for, and who should look elsewhere

Every flavour and format suits some people and not others. Here is an honest description of who is likely to get on with Yeti Original 100ml Citrus Freeze, and who is not.

It is likely to suit:

• Adult smokers who are switching to refillable vaping and are comfortable with a little set-up in return for lower running costs.
• Existing sub-ohm vapers who go through a lot of liquid and want a large bottle at a lower cost per millilitre.
• People who like cool, fruity flavours and do not mind a noticeable freeze on the exhale.
• Vapers who want control over nicotine strength, and who would like to step down gradually by using fewer shots over time.
• People tired of disposable-style devices who want to use a refillable kit.

It may not suit:

• Non-smokers and under-18s. Nicotine vapes are not for them, and it is illegal to sell to anyone under 18.
• People who use small, low-power pod kits with 1.0 ohm coils. A 70VG liquid is the wrong tool for that hardware. A 10ml nicotine salt liquid with a higher PG share will perform better.
• Anyone who dislikes menthol-style coolness. The freeze element is part of the identity of this flavour. A non-cooled citrus would be a safer choice.
• Vapers who want a ready-to-use product. A shortfill needs mixing, and a 10ml pre-mixed bottle is simpler for beginners who are nervous about adding shots.
• Heavy smokers who need high-strength nicotine salts in a compact device. Diluting shots to 3 or 6mg is a different experience, and some people stay with salts.
• People who are sensitive to cooling agents or who find that they irritate the throat or cause coughing.

If you are not sure, a sensible approach is to start with one bottle, mix a conservative strength, and give yourself a week. If you are replacing smoking, do not let a rushed trial push you back to cigarettes: change the strength, the wattage or the coil before you change your plan. NHS stop-smoking services and many local pharmacies offer free support for adults who want to quit, and they can advise on whether vaping suits your situation.

How to mix and use it

Mixing a shortfill is simple, but it is worth doing it carefully because you are handling nicotine. Allow ten minutes, and do it on a surface you can wipe down.

• Step 1: Wash and prepare. Wash your hands and place a paper towel or tray under the bottle. Keep children and pets out of the room.
• Step 2: Check the bottle. Confirm the label reads Yeti Original Citrus Freeze, that the tamper seal was intact, and that there is empty space in the bottle for your shots.
• Step 3: Open the bottle and the shots. Unscrew the cap on the shortfill. Open your nicotine shots, one at a time.
• Step 4: Pour in the nicotine. Add the shots slowly through the neck. Squeeze every drop out of the shot bottle. Do not add more than the space allows.
• Step 5: Cap and shake. Fit the nozzle and cap firmly, and shake the bottle for 30 to 60 seconds. Nicotine is thicker than the base liquid, so a gentle rolling motion followed by a firm shake gives an even blend.
• Step 6: Rest it. Leave the bottle upright for a few hours, or ideally overnight. This lets the liquid settle and lets any bubbles clear. The flavour often tastes a little more rounded after resting.
• Step 7: Label it. Write the date and the strength on the bottle with a marker, so that you know exactly what is in it.

Filling your tank. Switch the device off or lock the fire button. Unscrew the top cap or slide the fill port open, tilt the tank slightly, and let the liquid run down the inside wall instead of straight onto the coil. Stop when the level is just below the top of the glass. Never cover the central airflow tube, and do not overfill: if liquid floods the chimney, it will leak and gurgle. Wait five minutes before your first puff so the coil can saturate.

Vaping. Start with a slow, steady draw of three to five seconds at the bottom of your coil's power range. Draw the vapour into your mouth first, and then breathe it into your lungs if your device is designed for direct-to-lung vaping. Take it slowly at first, especially if you are used to tighter draws.

Safety. If liquid touches your skin, wash it off with soap and water straight away. If it gets in your eyes, rinse with plenty of water and seek medical advice. Wipe up spills immediately. Store the bottle upright, capped and out of reach of children. Do not mix different nicotine strengths in the same bottle without labelling it.

Troubleshooting common problems

Most problems with shortfill e-liquid come from the coil, the wattage or the fill, rather than from the liquid itself. Work through the likely causes in order before you decide a bottle is faulty.

• Burnt taste. Usually a dry or worn coil. Check the tank level, prime a new coil properly, and lower the wattage by 5 to 10W. If the coil is more than two weeks old, replace it.
• Dry hits. The wicking cannot keep up. Make sure the tank is more than a quarter full, hold the tank upright, take shorter draws, and give the coil a pause between puffs. If you are using a high-resistance pod coil, switch to a mesh coil or a lower-VG liquid.
• Gurgling or spitting. Condensation or flooded airflow. Open the airflow a little, wipe the central tube with a tissue, and avoid overfilling. A slightly loose coil or a worn O-ring can also cause it, so check that the coil is seated firmly.
• Leaking. Check the O-rings, make sure the tank is assembled firmly, and do not fill above the maximum line. Store the device upright overnight. Temperature and pressure changes can also push liquid out, particularly on flights, so travel with the tank empty.
• Weak or muted flavour. Try a new coil, raise the wattage by 5W, or clean the tank. Flavour fatigue is another cause, so try a different flavour for a day or two. Remember that nicotine shots dilute the flavour slightly.
• Harsh throat hit. Nicotine strength too high, wattage too high, or both. Lower the power, open the airflow, or use one shot fewer on the next bottle.
• Throat irritation or coughing. Often a sign of dehydration or sensitivity to cooling agents. Drink water. If it persists, try a non-cooled flavour or lower the strength.
• Bottle nozzle clogged. Wipe it with a clean tissue and leave it capped upright. Do not push a pin through the tip.
• Liquid looks cloudy or darker than expected. Some darkening over time is normal. A strong change in smell, a sour taste or visible particles is not, so stop using the bottle and contact the seller with the batch number.
• Device does not fire. This is a battery, connection or coil fault, not a liquid fault. Check the charge, clean the connection, and try a fresh coil.

If you have checked all of the above and still have a problem, note the batch number, take a photo of the bottle and the issue, and get in touch with the retailer. That gives you a good chance of a quick resolution.

Value for money

Shortfills are popular because the cost per millilitre is generally lower than with 10ml bottles. Whether Yeti Original 100ml Citrus Freeze represents good value for you depends on how much you vape and what you would otherwise buy.

A useful way to compare is to work out the total cost per millilitre of finished liquid, including shots:

• Formula: (price of the 100ml bottle + price of the shots) divided by 120ml.
• Illustration only: a £15 bottle plus two £1.50 shots comes to £18 across 120ml, which is 15p per millilitre. Please substitute the live price on the product page, since this is a worked example and not a quote.
• Comparison: 10ml nicotine salt bottles are often priced at a few pounds each, which can put them at 20p to 40p per millilitre. On those assumptions, a shortfill can cost around half as much per millilitre, although you pay for it with more set-up.

Running costs beyond the liquid. A refillable setup has costs that disposables do not. Coils need replacing every one to three weeks, a spare battery or charger may be needed, and shots are an extra purchase. Even so, at 3 to 5ml a day, the liquid is normally the biggest ongoing cost, and the saving per millilitre tends to outweigh the extras for anyone who vapes daily.

Where it offers less value. If you vape lightly, a 100ml bottle can take two months or longer to finish. Over that time the flavour can seem less fresh, and you are tying up money in stock. If you are not yet sure of the flavour, a smaller bottle or a 50ml size may be a more sensible purchase. If you only vape a few times a week, a 10ml nicotine salt liquid is simpler.

Is it worth buying more than one? Some vapers keep two bottles on the go and alternate. This limits flavour fatigue and can help the bottle last longer. It is also a sensible move if a retailer is running a multi-buy offer. Keep stock in a cool, dark cupboard and use the oldest bottle first.

Overall, the value case rests on three things: you vape enough to use a large bottle in a reasonable time, you have a sub-ohm device that suits a 70VG liquid, and you like the citrus-and-cooling profile. If all three are true, the numbers usually work in favour of a 100ml shortfill. If any one is false, the saving may not be worth the trade-offs.

Honest comparisons with other options

Fair comparisons help more than sales language, so here is how this liquid sits against the main alternatives UK vapers consider.

Against other 100ml citrus and ice shortfills. Several established UK brands, including IVG, Dr. Frost and Doozy Vape Co., sell 100ml shortfills in fruit-and-ice styles. They broadly share the same format, the same sub-ohm focus and a similar price band, so the real differences are in flavour tuning: how sharp the citrus is, how strong the cooling is, and how sweet the middle is. No brand is objectively ahead here. If you have a favourite brand, it is reasonable to stay with it. If you want to try a different take on citrus and cooling, Yeti is a reasonable choice, but a sample or a single bottle is a better test than a bulk order.

Against 10ml nicotine salt e-liquids. Salt liquids use higher nicotine strengths, typically 10 to 20mg/ml, in a higher PG ratio that suits small pod kits. They deliver nicotine faster and more discreetly, with smaller vapour clouds. The trade-off is the cost per millilitre and the need to buy several small bottles. If you want a quick, throat-satisfying hit from a compact device, salts are the better fit. If you want large vapour and a lower running cost, a shortfill is the better fit.

Against pod kits with pre-filled pods. Pre-filled pods are simple and tidy, but they limit flavour choice and cost more per millilitre. Refillable systems give you control but ask for more attention. Neither is right for everyone.

Against disposables. Single-use vapes can no longer be sold in Great Britain, so for most adults the real comparison is between refillable kits and pre-filled pod devices. Disposables were limited to 20mg/ml nicotine and around 2ml of liquid, and they typically ended up in the bin, which is both wasteful and a fire risk. A refillable device and a recyclable bottle produce far less waste, and the battery can be recycled at a drop-off point.

Limits of this liquid, stated plainly.

• It needs mixing, so it is less convenient than a ready-made bottle.
• It is designed for sub-ohm devices and is not suited to tight pod kits.
• The cooling element divides opinion.
• A 100ml bottle is a commitment, and flavour tastes change.
• Specifications such as the VG/PG ratio and bottle size should always be confirmed on your own label, since formats can change between batches.

Where it does well. It offers a large volume at a competitive cost per millilitre, a flavour that is easy to live with day to day, and flexibility on nicotine strength. If your device and habits fit that description, it is a sensible option to consider, and one that you can judge on its own merits after a week of use.
