AEKU disposable range reviews: tested in Cambodia (Beipu B2) (v2)
AEKU disposable range advice for Cambodia, covering shortfills, what to look for and where the trade-offs actually sit.
Most Cambodia buyers start with a well-known brand name and then discover that fit and coil availability matter far more. The build quality on RELX Pro is a step above most of what sits in the same price bracket, and the finish resists the chipping that usually shows after a few months of pocket carry.
Budget matters in Cambodia, but with aeku disposable range the cheapest option is rarely the one that lasts. Delivery across Cambodia is typically two to four working days with tracked dispatch, and returns are straightforward within the standard window.
What surprised us most was how little the 1.5 Ω regular coil changes the draw character compared with the 35:65 PG/VG liquid sitting in the chamber. The Crimson Red finish hides fingerprints far better than the gloss options, which matters more than it sounds on a device handled daily. Worth noting that the 510 thread takes a small amount of care to keep clean, which we cover in the maintenance section below.
The throat hit is noticeably firmer than a 35:65 PG/VG blend, so if you prefer a smoother draw, mix accordingly. Pricing in Cambodia shifts with import duty, so the figures here reflect current KHR rates rather than a fixed list price. Airflow control on the RELX Pro is adjustable enough to move from a warm, restrained draw to something far more open without removing the tank.
Charging over USB-C takes about 33 from empty, and the pass-through means the device can be used while plugged in on the smaller batteries. Two things to check before ordering: the USB-C socket on the base and whether the 1.5 Ω regular coil is the newer generation. Battery behaviour is where the RELX Pro earns its keep: the 2000 mAh cell holds a usable charge for most of a day at 30 and recharges over USB-C.
The instruction booklet is thin, but the diagrams are clear enough that most people set the device up without further help. Flavour tracking stays consistent from the first day to roughly the 1.5 Ω regular mark before the profile flattens and a swap makes sense. In Cambodia, availability of the 1.5 Ω regular coil is the practical bottleneck, not the device itself.
Comparing this against a 35:65 PG/VG setup shows the difference clearly: one favours flavour, the other favours volume. For cloud chasers, the learning curve is shorter than the specification list suggests, and daily use is straightforward from the first charge. If you take one thing from this page, make it the coil compatibility check. A device that needs a coil you cannot source locally becomes an expensive ornament within a month.
Replacement coils are widely available, and the 1.5 Ω regular 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. What surprised us most was how little the 1.5 Ω regular coil changes the draw character compared with the 35:65 PG/VG liquid sitting in the chamber.

Flavour and performance notes
A representative profile is Grape Frost Breeze: sweet, fruity, described as dark grape with a cool, brisk finish. On a 35:65 PG/VG ratio this reads clearly on the first day and holds its character to roughly the 1.5 Ω regular mark before the coil begins to mute it.
Practical considerations in Cambodia
Availability in Cambodia is the factor that decides most outcomes here. Confirm the 1.5 Ω regular and the USB-C are both in stock before committing, and check that the 510 thread matches your existing device if you already own hardware. Duty and KHR rates move, so treat prices as current rather than fixed.
If any of the above addresses what you were trying to solve, the rest of the pages in this section cover it in more detail.
