The IVG nic salts range at Local Supplies covers IVG's Intense line-up – 10ml TPD-compliant nicotine salt bottles designed for standard MTL pod kits, available in both 10mg and 20mg strengths at £2.99 per bottle. IVG has been one of the most-searched UK vape brands for years, mainly on the back of their bar-vape flavour library, and the Intense nic salt range brings a big chunk of that flavour catalogue into a bottle you can pour into any refillable pod kit.
There are 30–31 flavour variants across both strengths – fruit, ice, menthol, dessert and drink profiles. If you've moved from a bar vape (SKE Crystal Bar, Lost Mary, Elf Bar, or an IVG bar itself) onto a refillable device and want to keep flavours close to what you're used to, IVG Intense is one of the closest matches on the market.
The IVG Intense Nic Salt Range Explained
"Intense" isn't marketing fluff – it's IVG's word for their bolder-flavour nic salt line, distinguishing it from their older, milder e-liquid ranges. The Intense salts are 50/50 PG/VG (standard for pod kits), 10ml bottles (UK TPD-compliant), and both strengths use the same flavour library. The 20mg version has 31 flavour variants; the 10mg has 30.
Shop the range directly: IVG Intense Nic Salts 20mg for the standard strength that matches most bar-vape users' nicotine level, or IVG Intense Nic Salts 10mg for a lighter throat hit. Both at £2.99 per 10ml bottle – the strength you pick comes down to how much nicotine you're used to, not budget.
10mg or 20mg? Picking the Right IVG Nic Salt Strength
Same flavours, same bottle, same price – just a different nicotine hit. Rough guide from what most UK vapers land on:
Go with 20mg if: you smoked a pack a day, vaped an old 20mg disposable (basically all of them), or you're using a low-wattage pod kit like an Aspire Gotek, Vaporesso XROS or Hayati Moxy Pro. This is the standard bar-vape nicotine level and it's what most switching users start with.
Go with 10mg if: you're stepping down from 20mg on purpose, you find 20mg gives too harsh a throat hit, or you're using a slightly higher-wattage device where 20mg feels overwhelming. Also fine as a starting point if you're a light smoker.
If you're genuinely unsure, most people find 20mg feels most familiar coming from a disposable, and can drop to 10mg later if it's too much. Both are the same £2.99, so switching bottles later isn't expensive.
Popular IVG Intense Nic Salt Flavours
A sample of what's currently on the site across both strengths – note that not every flavour is in stock in every strength at all times:

- Blue Raspberry
- Watermelon Ice
- Tropical Ice
- Triple Mango
- Blue Sour Raspberry

The full 30+ flavour variants are shown on each individual product page. Some of the ice and menthol flavours sell through quickly and rotate back into stock rather than sitting permanently – if a flavour you want is temporarily out, the page stays live and stock updates when it lands.
What Devices Work With IVG Nic Salts?
IVG Intense salts are standard 10ml 50/50 PG/VG nic salt bottles – they'll work in essentially any MTL (mouth-to-lung) pod kit. That includes almost every popular UK pod device: Vaporesso XROS 4/5/Mini/Pro, Aspire Gotek X/X3/Pro, Aspire Loomix, Hayati Moxy Pro, and refillable Vaporesso Vibe SE kits. If you're using a Uwell Caliburn, Oxva Xlim, or any similar low-wattage pod, IVG salts work there too.
What they're not designed for: high-wattage sub-ohm setups (bigger tanks, sub-ohm coils, direct-lung inhale). For those, look at 100ml shortfill e-liquids instead – the nic salt formulation is too strong for sub-ohm use.
A Quick Guide to Using Nic Salts
If you're new to bottled nic salts after switching from bar vapes, the basics:
- Fill your pod (or pod tank) with the nic salt, following the max fill line on your device.
- Screw the pod back into the device but leave it for 5–10 minutes before your first puff. This lets the e-liquid soak into the coil and prevents burnt-taste dry hits.
- Take gentle puffs at first – nic salts hit smoother than freebase nicotine but the throat hit is still real, especially at 20mg.
- Store bottles upright in a cool, dark place. Nic salts keep for around 2 years if stored properly.
The most common mistake with any new bottle is skipping the soak time. Five minutes seems long but it's the difference between smooth vaping and a burnt coil on day one.

FAQs: IVG Nic Salts
Nic salts use nicotine salt (nicotine bonded with an acid), which delivers a smoother throat hit at higher strengths than traditional freebase nicotine. That makes 20mg salt actually vapeable in a small pod kit – 20mg freebase would burn your throat. IVG's regular e-liquid ranges use freebase nicotine at lower strengths and are usually designed for sub-ohm devices; the Intense salt range here is for low-wattage MTL pod kits.
Any standard MTL pod kit, yes – Aspire Gotek, Vaporesso XROS, Uwell Caliburn, Oxva Xlim, Hayati Moxy Pro, and similar. Not for high-wattage sub-ohm devices – the nicotine level is too strong for that style of vaping. Match strength to your habit: 20mg if you're moving from a disposable, 10mg if you want something lighter.
For a moderate vaper using a standard 2ml pod kit, roughly 4–7 days per 10ml bottle. Heavier vapers get 2–3 days, lighter vapers can stretch it to 10–14 days. For comparison, one 10ml bottle roughly equals five 600-puff bar vapes' worth of e-liquid, so if a Crystal Bar used to last you 2 days, one IVG bottle should last around 10.
IVG is a UK-registered brand and their nic salts are TPD-compliant for UK sale. Manufacturing location varies by product line – the packaging on each bottle carries the specific origin and batch information. Every bottle sold on Local Supplies goes through IVG's approved UK distribution.
Yes – every bottle has a best-before date printed on it, typically 2 years from manufacture. Stored upright in a cool, dark place, salts stay fresh right up to that date. Signs a bottle is past it: darker colour than when new, weaker flavour, or an off smell. If you're stocking up on multiple bottles, rotate them so the oldest gets used first.
Almost always because the coil wasn't primed. When you fill a fresh pod, leave it for 5–10 minutes before your first puff so the e-liquid can soak into the coil wick. Vaping too soon burns the dry wick and you get that harsh, blackened taste that pods rarely recover from. Same rule applies to any nic salt in any pod device.
Any UK vape retailer sourcing through IVG's approved distributors – Local Supplies included. Genuine bottles have a UK TPD warning label, a proper batch code, and IVG's holographic branding. If you're buying elsewhere and can't verify the batch, be careful – IVG is popular enough in the UK that counterfeits exist.
