SKE Nic Salts
SKE nic salts are 10ml nicotine salt e-liquids that put familiar bar style flavours into a refillable device. This collection holds 33 listings and the range showing in stock is drawn entirely from SKE Crystal V2 at £3.00 a bottle. Every one is a salt based liquid at roughly 50/50 VG to PG, which is the formulation that low wattage pod kits and mouth to lung hardware are built around.
The context matters here. Single use vapes were banned from sale across the UK on 1 June 2025. The flavour profiles people had grown used to did not disappear along with the hardware. Bottled nic salts like these are how those profiles carried over. You buy a refillable pod kit once then run 10ml bottles through it, which works out considerably cheaper per millilitre than swapping sealed pods.
What Crystal V2 is
Crystal V2 is the bottled nicotine salt line from SKE and it is the range that fills this collection. The flavour list leans hard into fruit, ice and soft drink territory. Bottles available at the time of writing include Banana Ice, Berry, Blue Razz Lemonade, Blueberry Cherry Cranberry, Blueberry Peach Ice, Blueberry Raspberry, Blueberry Sour Raspberry, Cherry Ice, Cola Ice, Hubbla Bubbla, Kiwi Passion Fruit Guava, Lemon and Lime, Menthol, Pineapple Ice, Pineapple Peach Mango, Pink Lemonade, Watermelon Cherry and Watermelon Ice. All sit at £3.00.
Nic salt basics
A nicotine salt is nicotine blended with a food grade acid, usually benzoic acid, which lowers the pH of the finished liquid. The nicotine molecule itself is not altered. What changes is how it feels going down. The result is that 20mg per ml is comfortable in a small device where the same strength as a freebase liquid would be rough enough to put most people off.
Strengths and UK limits
Nicotine containing e-liquid sold in the UK is capped at 20mg per ml and at 10ml a bottle. SKE Crystal V2 is generally offered at 10mg and 20mg. Twenty is where most adults switching from a heavier cigarette habit begin. Ten suits lighter former smokers or anyone reducing gradually. Each bottle must be notified to the Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency and must carry child resistant, tamper evident packaging along with the prescribed warning.
The hardware these belong in
A 50/50 salt wants a coil above 1.0 ohm in a device running under about 20W. That means refillable pod kits, all in one devices and mouth to lung vape pens. Pre filled pod kits use a comparable liquid inside the pod but a sealed pod cannot be refilled, so a refillable device is what makes a bottled range usable in the first place.
Flavour groups in the range
Three groups cover most of the Crystal V2 list. The iced fruits, including Banana Ice, Cherry Ice, Pineapple Ice and Watermelon Ice, pair a fruit base with a cooling agent. The layered fruit blends, such as Blueberry Cherry Cranberry, Kiwi Passion Fruit Guava and Pineapple Peach Mango, stack two or three fruits without the ice. The soft drink and sweet shop end covers Blue Razz Lemonade, Pink Lemonade, Cola Ice and Hubbla Bubbla. Straight Menthol sits on its own for anyone who wants cooling without fruit behind it.
Coil life and priming
Sweetened blends are harder on coils than plain fruit. Lemonades, cola and bubblegum profiles all carry sucralose, which caramelises onto the wire and dulls the flavour within days rather than weeks. Menthol and simple fruits are far kinder. Whatever you fill with, prime the coil first. Wet the cotton directly through the ports, fill the pod then leave it standing five minutes before the first draw. That one habit prevents most burnt coil complaints.
Storage, delivery and support
Nic salts are ready to use immediately and gain nothing from steeping. Keep bottles upright and capped, away from sunlight and heat. Gradual darkening over several months is oxidation of the nicotine and is not a fault. Store all bottles well out of reach of children and pets.
UK delivery is free once an order passes £20, which is seven bottles at £3.00. Working day orders are picked and sent promptly. If you are choosing between 10mg and 20mg or you want to check that a bottle suits the pod kit you already own, the team is on 07827 210361 between 8.30am and 4.00pm.
SKE nic salts: your questions
What is SKE Crystal V2 e-liquid?
Crystal V2 is the bottled nicotine salt range from SKE. It comes in 10ml bottles at roughly 50/50 VG to PG and is intended for refillable pod kits and other low wattage mouth to lung devices. The flavour list is built around fruits, iced fruits and soft drink profiles. Every bottle in this collection is £3.00.
Are SKE Crystal products single use vapes?
No. Single use vapes were banned from sale in the UK on 1 June 2025 and nothing sold here is a single use device. This collection contains 10ml bottles of nicotine salt e-liquid only, which you use by refilling a rechargeable pod kit. Pre-filled pod kits, where the pod is swapped rather than refilled, are the closest legal equivalent to the old bar-style devices.
Should I choose 10mg or 20mg?
Twenty milligrams per ml is the maximum UK law permits and it is where most adults switching from a heavier daily cigarette habit begin. Ten milligrams suits lighter former smokers and anyone stepping down over time. If a strength makes your throat feel dry or scratchy, move down rather than pushing through it.
Which SKE flavours are in stock?
At the time this page was written the available bottles included Banana Ice, Berry, Blue Razz Lemonade, Blueberry Cherry Cranberry, Blueberry Peach Ice, Blueberry Raspberry, Cherry Ice, Cola Ice, Hubbla Bubbla, Kiwi Passion Fruit Guava, Lemon and Lime, Menthol, Pineapple Ice, Pineapple Peach Mango, Pink Lemonade, Watermelon Cherry and Watermelon Ice. The collection page shows live availability.
What kind of device do I need for these?
A refillable pod kit, an all in one device or a mouth to lung vape pen. Look for a coil rated above 1.0 ohm and a device that runs under roughly 20W. Nic salts are too thin for sub ohm tanks and can leak through them. A 20mg salt in a high wattage mesh coil also delivers far more nicotine per puff than most people find comfortable.
How long does a 10ml bottle of SKE nic salt last?
Two to four days is typical for a pod kit user, though the spread is wide. The main variable is power. A device sipping at 12W makes a bottle last considerably longer than one running at 25W. How often you reach for it matters just as much. Buying several bottles at a time is usually the cheaper approach.
Do nic salts need to be steeped?
No. Steeping applies to thick high VG shortfills with dessert, custard or bakery notes, where the flavour compounds take time to blend properly. A 50/50 nic salt is thin and stable and is ready to vape the moment you open it. If a bottle tastes muted, the coil is far more likely to be the cause than the liquid.
