This article is aimed at adult UK vapers seeking clear, reliable information about the nicotine strength options available in the OXVA OX Passion nic salt e‑liquid range. Whether you are switching from smoking and exploring nicotine salts for the first time, or you are an experienced vaper transitioning between strengths, the goal here is to explain what strengths are offered, how they relate to UK regulation, how to choose a strength that suits your vaping style and device, and what you should consider when using nic salts responsibly.

Overview of OXVA OX Passion Nic Salts

The OXVA OX Passion range is a collection of nicotine salt e‑liquids supplied in 10 ml bottles and designed for use in refillable pod systems or other mouth‑to‑lung (MTL) style devices. They are formulated with a 50/50 VG/PG base, which helps ensure compatibility with smaller coils and provides good flavour with moderate vapour production. The design intention is to deliver smooth throat hit and rapid nicotine uptake, consistent with the characteristics of nicotine salts. The range includes a large selection of flavours, but from the standpoint of nicotine strength the key offering is consistent across the range of flavours.

Nicotine Strengths Available

According to UK retailer information and product listings, OXVA OX Passion nic salts are available in two main nicotine strength options in the UK market: 10 mg/ml and 20 mg/ml. This is stated across multiple sources. One site describes them as being “available in 10 mg and 20 mg nicotine strengths” for the 10 ml bottle format. Other sources are broadly consistent, specifying that each 10 ml bottle offers a choice of 10 mg or 20 mg nicotine strength.

It is noteworthy that while some older listings or filter fields show a “5 mg” strength in the online catalogue, the operational market availability appears to emphasise 10mg and 20mg as the standard nic salt strengths for this range. One retailer’s filtering system indicated “5, 10, 20 mg” for some flavours, but further specification and other sources affirm the consistent two‑strength offering of 10 mg and 20 mg.

How These Strengths Relate to UK Regulation

Under UK regulations for nicotine‑containing e‑liquids (namely the Tobacco and Related Products Regulations, TRPR), nicotine strength must not exceed 20 mg/ml in ready‑to‑vape liquids. The OXVA OX Passion range sits comfortably within that limit by offering a maximum of 20 mg/ml. The 10 mg strength provides a lower‑strength option within the legal limit. By offering both 10 mg and 20 mg strengths the range gives adult vapers choice while remaining compliant. The 10 ml bottle size, child‑resistant packaging, tamper‑evident cap, full ingredient labelling and 50/50 base are further indications that the product is aligned with standard UK retail requirements.

Which Strength Might Be Right for You

Choosing between 10 mg and 20 mg strength depends on several factors: your previous smoking or vaping history, your craving for nicotine, your device and coil setup, and how you prefer your draw (tight MTL or slightly more open). If you are converting from smoking and used high‑nicotine cigarettes or multiple cigarettes per hour you might find 20 mg gives stronger and quicker satisfaction. If you already vape at a lower strength or prefer less nicotine per puff, 10 mg may suffice and may offer an easier path to reduce nicotine over time. Because the OXVA OX Passion range uses a 50/50 VG/PG base and is paired with MTL style devices, the vapour volume is moderate and this tends to deliver nicotine more efficiently than high VG sub‑ohm setups; thus many users find the lower 10 mg strength gives adequate satisfaction in the right device.

If you use a higher‑powered device or draw very frequently, you may find even 10 mg gives slightly lighter nicotine delivery than you expect, which might make 20 mg more appropriate for your habits. Over time you may wish to reduce your strength, and having the option between these two allows flexibility.

Practical Considerations When Using These Strengths

When using nic salts of either 10 mg or 20 mg you should ensure that your device is suited to the 50/50 base and MTL style. Using a device designed for sub‑ohm vaping with large coils and open airflow may lead to excessive vapour and may make the nicotine strength feel lower (because you inhale more vapour and distribute the nicotine over a larger volume). For both strengths ensure coils are the correct resistance for MTL use, the wattage is within recommended range, and airflow is adjusted for a tighter draw if your preference is cigarette‑like.

Monitor how you feel shortly after vaping: if you still feel strong cravings fairly quickly then consider whether your strength is too low or your device is letting you inhale too much vapour. Conversely if you feel uncomfortably strong throat hit or light‑headedness then you may have too high strength, too many pulls, or airflow too restricted. As always ensure you store the bottles safely, keep them tightly capped, away from children and pets, and use the device and e‑liquid only as intended by adult users.

Common Questions and Misconceptions

One frequent question is: “Is 20 mg too high for nic salts?” The answer is: it depends on your previous nicotine intake and device setup. Because nic salts deliver nicotine more smoothly and efficiently than some free‑base blends, some users may find 20 mg delivers strong satisfaction in a smaller dose of vapour. For others who are light smokers or have reduced nicotine dependence already, 10 mg may be sufficient and even preferable. Another misconception is that strength alone dictates satisfaction.

In reality the device’s coil resistance, airflow, wattage and your puffing style all interact with the nicotine strength to determine how satisfying the vaping session feels. A lower strength in an optimised MTL device may deliver as much satisfaction as a higher strength in a less suited device. Some users believe that nic salts are only for high strength use; in fact many adult vapers now use nicotine salts at moderate strengths (10 mg or even lower) because the efficient nicotine delivery and smooth throat hit make that strength sufficient.

It is also worth noting that despite the “bar‑style” flavour branding of OXVA OX Passion, these liquids are designed for refillable devices and are regulated accordingly. The strength options are the same as for any nicotine salt e‑liquid under UK regulation, and the user should treat them as they would any other regulated vape liquid.

Summary and Final Thoughts

In summary, the OXVA OX Passion nic salt range offers two main nicotine strength options in the UK market: 10 mg/ml and 20 mg/ml. These strengths sit comfortably within UK regulatory limits and provide adult vapers with a choice depending on their nicotine requirement and device configuration.

The 10ml bottle format, 50/50 VG/PG base, and MTL device compatibility ensure that the liquid is well matched to pod systems rather than high‑wattage sub‑ohm setups. When choosing your strength, consider your previous smoking habits, device setup, and how you experience satisfaction after use. Use the strength that gives you the least cravings while still being comfortable. If you wish, you may start with 20 mg and move down to 10 mg when you feel ready. Always use devices responsibly, ensure proper coil matching and airflow, and store and dispose of products safely.
