What Nicotine Strengths Do Imp Jar Nic Salts Come In?
A simple guide to the 10mg and 20mg strengths in the Imp Jar Nic Salts range and how to pick the right one for your background.
The short answer
Imp Jar Nic Salts are available in two standard strengths, 10mg and 20mg, with some lines also offering a milder 5mg option. The right strength depends on your previous smoking habits and how much nicotine you are used to.

Choosing between the strengths
10mg is a popular middle ground, often suiting light to moderate former smokers or vapers stepping down from a higher strength. 20mg is the maximum permitted strength in the UK under TRPR 2016 and suits former heavy smokers or anyone switching directly from a high strength disposable vape.
Why the smooth feel matters here
Because nic salts feel gentler than freebase at the same mg level, a 20mg Imp Jar nic salt is comfortable for most pod kit users, where an equivalent freebase strength would feel far too harsh. This is what allows the range to offer strengths this high in a small, simple bottle.
Strength guide
| Strength | Best suited to |
|---|---|
| 5mg (where available) | Vapers reducing nicotine intake gradually |
| 10mg | Light to moderate former smokers |
| 20mg | Former heavy smokers or those used to high strength disposables |
20mg is the legal maximum nicotine strength in the UK under current regulation, so it is not possible to buy a stronger pre-mixed e-liquid than this from a compliant UK retailer.
Common questions about strength
Can I move between strengths over time?
Yes, many vapers gradually reduce their strength as their nicotine needs change, moving from 20mg down to 10mg and lower over time.
Is 10mg enough if I smoked heavily?
It depends on the individual, some heavy former smokers find 10mg sufficient due to the smooth, fast absorbing nature of nic salts, while others prefer to start at 20mg.
Why is 20mg the maximum strength available?
UK regulation under TRPR 2016 caps nicotine containing e-liquid at 20mg per ml, so this is the highest strength legally available pre-mixed.
