JNR Falcon X – Raspberry and Blackberry

JNR Falcon X 28000 Raspberry Blackberry: the long-run rechargeable puff

Blackberry is the only fruit you harvest at the cost of blood. Nobody has ever picked blackberries without coming home with three scratches, a stained shirt and a nagging sense there was a better way to spend a Sunday. The JNR Falcon X 28000 Raspberry Blackberry offers the result without the bramble.

JNR is known for devices that circulate at parties and are expected to take a beating. With the Falcon X the brand pushed the endurance slider: up to 28,000 puffs, a rechargeable battery, a tank you fill, and a printed falcon in a posture specific to each flavour.

19.90 €, and the matter is settled for a while.

The Raspberry Blackberry flavour in detail

Raspberry, nervy and tart

Raspberry leads. It is bright, tart, slightly prickly, carrying that unmistakable scent that reads as fresh fruit rather than confectionery. It wakes the palate on the inhale and gives the whole thing relief.

It is a hard fruit to reproduce in vaping: too light and it vanishes, too heavy and it turns chemical. The dose here holds the ridgeline.

Blackberry, dark and sweet

Blackberry picks up behind and does the exact opposite. Darker, rounder, sweeter, with that faint skin astringency you get from the real thing, it brings depth and stretches the finish.

The result is properly fruity without excessive sugar, with real length. It is probably the most grown-up flavour in the range, the one you pick when candy profiles have started to genuinely tire you out.

28,000 puffs against disposables

The maths is brutal. A standard disposable manages 600 to 900 puffs. Here the claim climbs to 28,000. A completely different order of magnitude, for 19.90 € and a single purchase.

An honest caveat: that figure is a maximum obtained under optimal conditions, with short regular draws. Nobody vapes like that on a Friday night. Treat it as a ceiling rather than a commitment and you will never be disappointed.

What remains beyond argument: one device instead of several dozen. Less discarded electronics, fewer lithium cells in a recycling bin where they do not belong, and fewer trips to the corner shop.

950 mAh battery, USB-C charging and screen

The 950 mAh battery charges over USB-C. The cable is not included, which is only a problem if you are still running a flip phone. When in doubt, check before ordering rather than after.

The small percentage screen is the detail separating a rechargeable puff from a slightly improved disposable. You watch the number fall, you anticipate, you plug in. End of anxiety.

Heating comes from a 1.2 ohm dual mesh, a double grid spreading heat across a wider surface. Translation: more vapour, sharper flavour reproduction and steadier heating across the tank. Auto-draw fires on the inhale, no button, no settings.

Filling it and what is in the box

Filling is done from the top: lift the lid, pour the liquid, put it back. Three movements, no instructions. The kind of simplicity you only notice the day you use a complicated system.

The box holds 2 ml pre-filled to start immediately and two 10 ml bottles of Raspberry Blackberry for afterwards, which is 22 ml in total. Nothing to choose, nothing extra to order.

The coil is fixed and cannot be swapped. That is what makes this price possible, and it is the product's only real constraint: never draw on an empty tank, or you will permanently ruin the flavour.

20 mg nicotine salts: the right audience

Single strength: 20 mg/ml in nicotine salts. Salts give fast absorption and a soft hit even at high strength, unlike freebase nicotine which turns harsh above 12 mg.

It is calibrated for a smoker or ex-smoker looking for an alternative that holds up. For a non-smoker it is simply too strong, and there is no reason to start.

Regulatory notices: not for sale to under-18s, contains nicotine, a highly addictive substance. Not recommended for pregnant or breastfeeding women.

Other dark fruits in the Falcon X 28K range

In the same family, the Falcon X Raspberry Blueberry swaps blackberry for a softer blueberry. The Falcon X Blueberry Pomegranate pushes towards acidity, and the Falcon X Forest Fruits Peach softens everything with stone fruit.

To leave red fruit entirely, the Falcon X Iced Watermelon offers something fresh and light. Full catalogue on the rechargeable puffs page.
