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 1.5 Ω regular coil changes the draw character compared with the 50:50 PG/VG liquid sitting in the chamber.

Battery behaviour is where the RELX Pro earns its keep: the 3000 mAh cell holds a usable charge for most of a day at 25 and recharges over Micro-USB. 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 1.5 Ω regular coil is the sensible default to keep in stock.
For nic salt users, 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 50:50 PG/VG blend, so if you prefer a smoother draw, mix accordingly.
Pricing in Mexico shifts with import duty, so the figures here reflect current MXN rates rather than a fixed list price. 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 25, and pushing beyond that adds heat rather than anything worth carrying.

Flavour and performance notes
A representative profile is Cherry Lime Soda: sweet, tart, described as red cherry with a lime lift. On a 50:50 PG/VG ratio this reads clearly on the first day and holds its character to roughly the 1.5 Ω regular mark before the coil begins to mute it.
Practical considerations in Mexico
Availability in Mexico is the factor that decides most outcomes here. Confirm the 1.5 Ω regular and the Micro-USB are both in stock before committing, and check that the 510-X matches your existing device if you already own hardware. Duty and MXN rates move, so treat prices as current rather than fixed.
Take the time to get it right the first time; the difference shows up over months of use rather than days.
