VapeCon starter kits reviews: tested in Norway (0.6 ohm mesh) (v2)
VapeCon starter kits advice for Norway, covering coil types, what to look for and where the trade-offs actually sit.
The gap between a mid-range and a premium vapecon starter kits narrows once you know which components you actually use. Build quality is the quiet differentiator here, with tight seams and a connector that has not loosened after repeated removal.
Most Norway buyers start with a well-known brand name and then discover that fit and coil availability matter far more. Airflow control on the Vaporesso Tarot is adjustable enough to move from a warm, restrained draw to something far more open without removing the tank.
The Sunset Orange finish hides fingerprints far better than the gloss options, which matters more than it sounds on a device handled daily. Worth noting that the magnetic contact takes a small amount of care to keep clean, which we cover in the maintenance section below. For diy mixers, the learning curve is shorter than the specification list suggests, and daily use is straightforward from the first charge.
Two things to check before ordering: the Type-C fast charge socket on the base and whether the 1.2 Ω mesh coil is the newer generation. Battery behaviour is where the Vaporesso Tarot earns its keep: the 1000 mAh cell holds a usable charge for most of a day at 70 and recharges over Type-C fast charge. We would pair the Vaporesso Tarot with a 80:20 PG/VG liquid, which is where the balance between throat hit and cloud density sits most comfortably.
Expect roughly 604 full puffs from a charge at 3 mg/ml, based on average session length in our testing. Replacement coils are widely available, and the 1.2 Ω mesh coil is the sensible default to keep in stock. The included spare coils are useful for the first fortnight, after which you will be ordering your own.
Comparing this against a 80:20 PG/VG setup shows the difference clearly: one favours flavour, the other favours volume. The 3.5 ml capacity is a genuinely useful middle ground: enough liquid for a long session without turning the device into a pocket problem. We would pair the Vaporesso Tarot with a 80:20 PG/VG liquid, which is where the balance between throat hit and cloud density sits most comfortably.
The throat hit is noticeably firmer than a 80:20 PG/VG blend, so if you prefer a smoother draw, mix accordingly. Pricing in Norway shifts with import duty, so the figures here reflect current NOK rates rather than a fixed list price. Airflow control on the Vaporesso Tarot is adjustable enough to move from a warm, restrained draw to something far more open without removing the tank.

Flavour and performance notes
A representative profile is Kiwi Lime: tangy, green, described as tart kiwi balanced by lime. On a 80:20 PG/VG ratio this reads clearly on the first day and holds its character to roughly the 1.2 Ω mesh mark before the coil begins to mute it.
Practical considerations in Norway
Availability in Norway is the factor that decides most outcomes here. Confirm the 1.2 Ω mesh and the Type-C fast charge are both in stock before committing, and check that the magnetic contact matches your existing device if you already own hardware. Duty and NOK rates move, so treat prices as current rather than fixed.
