I have one of these. I only bought it relatively recently so I'm not going to pretend to know how well it holds out but so far it's been running pretty well. That said, it's not my favourite. I also have a Vinci E120 (Voopoo) that's my best direct comparison, and I prefer the E120 by a mile. Coils, size (okay the E120 isn't exactly tiny), how it fits in the hand.
But that's subjective. And like I said, nothing wrong with the Luxe, just not a favourite.
PortableEyes
Okay, but the OP isn't and that's who my comment was directed towards. I can't help you with buying things in the USA, someone else *might* but you'd be better off asking in your own post rather than hijacking this one with something unrelated.
Edit - forgot a word.

I've used 40VG/60PG, as well as 50/50 juice, in both the 0.6 & 0.8 GPP pods, and the top fill pods would hide the juice level better than the side fill, but not by much. The G5 has a cut out on one side, letterbox style, that shows you the coil in the pod, for you to keep an eye on the juice level, but it's pretty inconspicuous.
PortableEyes
Then yup, that'd probably do it.
I have the Honeydew and I like it but I don't know the rest and have no idea how well the mixes would turn out, sorry.
PortableEyes
You must really like your ice, huh? I mean I like ice (not menthol, just the ice) but 2% of that stuff is more than even I'd like.
PortableEyes
Fair, I was going on a height/width ratio in my head, sorry.
Then, again if you can find one, a Crown V. Shorter than the Falcon Legend, Z Force, Uforce-X Nano (I've checked). Out of production for a while but they can still occasionally be found and while they'll take Crown V coils they'll also take Vaporesso GTi coils (and I've found they taste far better in the Crown, lol).
PortableEyes
Uforce-X Nano, if you can find it. Little brother to the Uforce-X and uses a 510 tip instead of an 810, takes all the PnP-X coils.
PortableEyes
I know I'd toss it but I've got more than enough pods to make that usable (and I've never used the Xros devices). Wrap it in something, tissue or an unscented baby wipe, and mime throwing it overarm. If the coil inside is flooded the juice will flick through to the tissue or wipe when it's thrown, and that should get all the excess juice out.
PortableEyes
Basically without a screen there's no adjustments to be made by you. You fill your pod, pop it into the device, and the device does the rest for you. The only choice you need to make is what pod resistance you want (I have no idea about the Xros pods, but I'd recommend the 0.9 GPP pods for the Caliburn, because I've used those).
PortableEyes
Don't order off Amazon. Plenty of decent vape sites out there that'll sell what you need, bundles included.
Vape Club (as an example) has the Caliburn G5 Mini plus a 10ml juice for £9.99 with free delivery over £20. The Mini has no screen, you just pick your pod, fill it and go. They have an Xros 6 Mini with 3x10ml juices for £16.99. They're also not the only vape site out there, they just have one of the lowest free delivery requirements in the UK.
That said I'm making an assumption (based on Cutters Choice) that you're in the UK so apologies if I've misread that.
PortableEyes
No, they won't fit. PnP and PnP-X coils are different coil families with different casings, all they share is part of the name.
PortableEyes
You can switch the majority of the screen off by pressing the fire button 4 times. It'll still show you your wattage and what mode you've got it in, so it doesn't restrict the useful info.
I have no problem with how the Koko actually works. It's the plastic body thing that gets me.
PortableEyes
I have a G5 Koko and a G5. I love the Koko and the form factor but it feels like plastic in the hand, like one strong squeeze and it would disintegrate in the hand, and that screen is bright, flashy, painful to look at, and I had to switch all the light shows off because on top of disliking how it looks it drains the battery like nothing else.
PortableEyes
Got one the same colour and, while I'm not a pink kinda guy, I've no plans to source an alternative colour lol.
PortableEyes
Ouch, yeah. I'm definitely getting more than that out of them. No ideas to fix that though, sorry. That'd drive me batshit.
PortableEyes
Which ones specifically? I've been getting decent time out of mine, but I've been using the .8 MTL coils and the .6 coils. The 1.2 MTL were awful, though.
PortableEyes
Never had a problem with the original Z 0.15 coils but they're harder to find now. The Z coils in general aren't the greatest though - not terrible, but not the greatest. Might be worth switching off Smart Mode and dropping down to 70w and see if keeping it at the lower end of the range helps.
PortableEyes
Which Z coils, Geekvape or Innokin?
PortableEyes
I feel like I should've mentioned this about Riot btw, don't be put off that a good chunk (if not all) of their bar juice stuff is 40/60 and not 50/50, I've never had a 40/60 juice give me trouble in an MTL device despite it being thinner. Granted it's stuff I've mixed myself too, not just commercial juice, but don't let it put you off. I doubt Riot are the only ones.
PortableEyes
My experience with dispo-style juice is limited, sorry, not generally my thing. I've had some from Riot, Zeus Juice (back with the Zodiac line), tried a couple bottles of Elfliq. Just Juice and Doozy have bar juice lines I've had people recommend, they're just not my thing but might be worth checking out too.
PortableEyes
Pretty much anything Riot.
You go for dispo style juice?
PortableEyes
Not that I know most of them but I love Slow Blow. It's one of my favourite commercial juices and I'm really not a fan of most of Nasty's stuff, it's only Slow Blow for me lol.
PortableEyes
I don't mind how it looks but the internal battery is a straight no from me.
PortableEyes
The recommended range for the 0.6 coils is 20-26w. There's nothing wrong with the juice or the nicotine level there, it's just the coil, and using a higher ohm coil would be worth trying. Even the .8 at 12-16w would be worth trying, especially at the lower end of the range.
I don't have much personal experience with the higher ohm GTX coils though.
There's a Lemon Peach Passion by Elux Legend, if that's of any use. Edit: Lemon Peach Passionfruit from Hayati Pro Max and a Passionfruit Peach & Lemon from Bar Salts, too.
