Marsilen vs Vapsolo丨Multi-Flavor Vapes Compared

Quick Comparison

The current Marsilen NOVA 4in1 page shows 21 flavors, 10 arrangements, up to 80,000 puffs, a 1Ω mesh coil, Type-C charging and a 650mAh battery.

The updated manufacturer-supplied specifications state 20 mg/mL for NOVA 4in1. The previously reviewed online selector showed 2% and 5%, but the supplied specifications do not establish a 5% version. The nicotine concentration must be checked against the exact model, packaging and supporting documentation.

Vapsolo lists QUADS with up to 80,000 puffs, a 650mAh battery, Type-C charging, a 1.0Ω mesh coil and nicotine options of 20mg/ml or 50mg/ml.

Flavor Options Buyers Can Actually Sell

Marsilen lists 21 flavor names for NOVA 4in1, spread across 10 arrangements. This does not mean one device contains all 21 flavors. Each SKU comes with one preset group of four flavors.

The published flavors include Mixed Berries, Kiwi Passion Fruit Guava, Peach Ice, Grape Ice, Love 66, Strawberry Ice, Watermelon Ice, Lush Ice, Blueberry Raspberry, Cherry, Peach Mango, Banana Ice, Blue Sour Raspberry, Ice Tea Lemon Ice, Ice Tea Peach Ice, Mango On Ice, Vanilla, Strawberry Vanilla Cola, Blueberry Kiwi, Blueberry Ice and Vimto.

One combination is:

Mixed Berries + Watermelon Ice + Blueberry Raspberry + Strawberry Ice

This group stays mostly around fruit, berry and cooling flavors.

Another option is:

Vanilla + Peach Ice + Banana Ice + Blue Sour Raspberry

Here, the four flavors are more different from each other.

Vapsolo QUADS also uses preset groups. Its combinations cover many of the same general flavor types, including berry, watermelon, strawberry, mango, tropical fruit, ice, beverage and sweeter flavors.

When planning stock, compare the actual four-flavor combinations. “21 flavors” and “10 combinations” are not the same kind of number, so comparing them directly can be misleading.

Track Sales by Combination

With a multi-flavor vape, sales should be tracked by the full combination, not by one flavor inside the device.

If a single-flavor Watermelon SKU sells slowly, the problem is easy to spot. But if one device contains Watermelon, Vanilla, Mango and Berry, you cannot tell from sales alone which flavor helped or hurt the result.

For example:

Sell-through rate = units sold ÷ units received × 100

If 75 out of 100 units sell within 30 days, the 30-day sell-through rate is 75%.

Use the same time period when comparing different SKUs. If one combination needs a reorder after 14 days while another still has 60 of its original 100 units after 45 days, the first SKU clearly needs more stock on the next order.

The numbers above are only examples. They are not Marsilen or Vapsolo sales figures.

Test the Flavor Selector

Both products rely on a moving selector to change flavors, so this is one part worth testing properly before buying in volume.

Marsilen uses a rotating selector at the top of NOVA 4in1. Instructions on the Marsilen product range tell users to lift the mouthpiece and rotate it between flavor positions.

Vapsolo QUADS uses a rotating mouthpiece. Vapsolo has published one version with four separate 7ml liquid tanks and four separate 1.0Ω mesh coils, for 28ml in total.

The updated manufacturer-supplied specifications describe NOVA 4in1 as four independent 10 mL pre-filled chambers, totaling 40 mL, with a 1.0 Ω mesh-coil specification. This is not the same liquid-capacity specification as the 4 × 7 mL QUADS configuration described above; identical internal construction should not be assumed.

Before a bulk order, check:

• whether every flavor position locks firmly;
• whether the correct flavor activates each time;
• whether the selector can stop between two positions;
• how much of the previous flavor remains after switching;
• whether all four positions give similar output;
• whether the selector becomes loose after repeated use.

One simple test is to switch flavors 100 to 200 times on several samples. This is not an official industry test, but it is much more useful than turning the selector only a few times and assuming it will stay tight.

Treat 80,000 Puffs as a Claim

Both NOVA 4in1 and QUADS are advertised at up to 80,000 puffs. Buyers should treat this as a manufacturer claim, not a promise that every customer will get exactly 80,000 draws.

Research on e-cigarette use has found that puff duration, puff volume and flow rate can vary from one user to another.^[1]

Controlled tests have also found that coil resistance, power and puffing conditions can change how much e-liquid is used.^[2]

If you simply divide the advertised number by four:

80,000 advertised puffs ÷ 4 flavor positions = 20,000 advertised puffs per position

That is only a calculation. It does not mean each flavor position will actually give 20,000 puffs. A user may use one flavor much more than the others, and normal puff length may be very different from the manufacturer’s test conditions.

For a wholesale comparison, look at:

• total e-liquid capacity;
• liquid per chamber;
• coil structure;
• coil resistance;
• device output;
• airflow;
• sample liquid consumption;
• performance when the liquid is nearly finished.

Vapsolo has published one QUADS version with four 7ml tanks:

4 × 7ml = 28ml total

The updated manufacturer-supplied NOVA 4in1 specifications state 4 × 10 mL = 40 mL total. This replaces the earlier statement that total e-liquid volume was unclear.

A ratio calculated from stated liquid capacity and advertised puffs remains arithmetic based on manufacturer claims. It does not establish real-world efficiency or lifespan without comparable testing.

Battery, Coil and Charging Checks

On these three specifications, there is very little difference between the two products.

They also do not tell you which device has better battery reliability, flavor output or coil life.

Both products are rechargeable, so the 650mAh battery is not expected to power all 80,000 advertised puffs from a single charge.

When checking samples, record:

• charging time;
• charging-port strength;
• unexpected shutdowns;
• heat during charging;
• output when the battery is low;
• performance after repeated charging.

For example, if five sample units are each charged three times, you get 15 charging cycles to observe. That still does not prove long-term battery life, but it can help catch obvious problems before you place a bigger order.

The same goes for the coil. Two products can both use a 1.0Ω mesh coil and still feel different because of coil construction, airflow, power control, liquid formula and wicking.

SKU Count and Inventory Cost

Marsilen currently keeps its built-in multi-flavor range fairly small. The main lineup includes NOVA 3in1 and NOVA 4in1.

NOVA 3in1 is listed with an 850mAh rechargeable battery and up to 60,000 puffs. NOVA 4in1 moves to four selectable flavors, up to 80,000 puffs and a 650mAh battery.

Vapsolo gives buyers more product levels:

A wider range gives retailers more choice, but it also means more SKUs to buy, store and reorder.

If a distributor wants to keep 100 units of every active SKU:

10 SKUs × 100 units = 1,000 units

20 SKUs × 100 units = 2,000 units

30 SKUs × 100 units = 3,000 units

The stock level per SKU has not changed, but a 30-SKU range needs three times as many units as a 10-SKU range.

Nicotine options can increase the number again.

If 10 flavor combinations are available in two nicotine strengths:

10 combinations × 2 strengths = 20 stock choices

If you keep 100 units of each:

20 × 100 = 2,000 units

At a hypothetical landed cost of $10 per unit:

2,000 × $10 = $20,000 of inventory

These figures are only examples. They are not Marsilen or Vapsolo order recommendations.

A wider catalog can mean:

• more cash tied up in stock;
• more slow-moving SKUs;
• more warehouse space;
• more stock counting;
• more replenishment work.

A distributor with strong sales may be able to handle Vapsolo’s wider range without much trouble. A smaller retailer may get clearer sales data by starting with fewer combinations.

Calculate MOQ by SKU

When a supplier gives an MOQ, make sure you know what that number applies to.

For example:

MOQ: 100 units

This could still lead to very different order sizes.

At a hypothetical landed cost of $10 per unit:

• 100 units = $1,000
• 1,000 units = $10,000
• 2,000 units = $20,000

So do not stop at asking, “What is the MOQ?” Ask exactly how the supplier applies it.

• What is the MOQ for the model?
• What is the MOQ per flavor combination?
• Can different combinations be mixed?
• Does each nicotine strength have a separate MOQ?
• Does the MOQ change on repeat orders?

Marsilen provides purchasing information through its wholesale program. The actual order terms still need to be confirmed instead of using a small-quantity website price as the wholesale price.

Compare Landed Cost, Not Unit Price

The cheapest product quote is not always the cheapest order after shipping and import costs are added.

A simple landed-cost calculation is:

product cost + freight + import costs + handling + expected defect loss

For example:

Another supplier might quote $8.50 for the product but only $0.60 in freight per unit. In that case, the higher factory price may still give you a lower delivered cost.

For a real comparison, use the actual order quantity, carton size, shipping route, Incoterm, duties and defect terms from each quotation.

Packing size can make a noticeable difference too.

If 500 units from Supplier A use 0.20m³ and the same 500 units from Supplier B use 0.30m³:

0.30m³ ÷ 0.20m³ = 1.5

Supplier B needs 50% more shipping space for the same number of units. That does not mean freight will automatically be 50% higher, but the extra volume should be included when comparing the two offers.

Get Complete Packing Data

Vapsolo currently shows 44 × 44 × 124mm on the QUADS product page under “Carton Size.” In Vapsolo’s own QUADS article, the same number is used as device dimensions.

Because the same figure is being used under different labels, confirm what it actually refers to before using it for freight or shelf planning.

Marsilen’s NOVA 4in1 public product page does not currently show enough master-carton information for a proper logistics comparison.

Ask both suppliers for:

• device dimensions;
• unit net weight;
• retail-box dimensions;
• units per inner box;
• units per master carton;
• master-carton dimensions;
• gross weight;
• net weight.

For example, a master carton measuring 50 × 40 × 30cm has a physical volume of:

0.50 × 0.40 × 0.30 = 0.06m³

If that carton holds 100 units:

0.06m³ ÷ 100 = 0.0006m³ per unit

This makes it much easier to compare how much shipping space each product uses.

Set Reorder Levels by Sales Speed

A product showing as available on a website does not mean every flavor combination is sitting in a warehouse in wholesale quantities.

For the SKUs you plan to sell, confirm:

• current available quantity;
• warehouse location;
• normal dispatch time;
• production lead time if stock runs out;
• normal replenishment cycle;
• whether the same combination will still be available on the next order.

Suppose a retailer sells 20 units per week and wants four weeks of stock:

20 units × 4 weeks = 80 units

If the supplier also needs around four weeks to replenish the stock, getting close to 80 units already means it may be time to reorder.

Now take a slower SKU selling only five units per week:

5 × 4 = 20 units

If you are holding 100 units of that SKU, you have about 20 weeks of stock at the same sales rate.

This is why fast and slow combinations should not automatically get the same reorder quantity.

Inspect Samples Before Bulk Ordering

Neither brand publishes independent batch-level defect data that proves one has a lower defect rate than the other.

For a buyer, testing actual samples gives you more useful information.

If 2 out of 50 inspected units show the same selector problem:

2 ÷ 50 × 100 = 4% observed defect rate in that sample

This does not mean the whole production batch has a 4% defect rate. It only tells you that the same issue appeared more than once in the sample, which may be enough reason to inspect more units.

Keep the defects separated by type:

• dead on arrival;
• visible leakage;
• selector failure;
• charging failure;
• one flavor position not working;
• weak output;
• display error;
• damaged packaging.

For a small first check, you could take 20 units from four different cartons, with five units from each carton. This is not a formal inspection standard, but it gives you a better spread across the shipment than taking all 20 samples from one box.

Marsilen also provides product-use and troubleshooting information through its Help Center. For wholesale orders, it is still better to keep your own incoming inspection and defect records.

Check the Exact EU Version

For EU buyers, the exact nicotine strength and liquid setup matter more than the puff number on the box.

Article 20 of Directive 2014/40/EU limits nicotine-containing e-liquid covered by the rules to 20mg/ml. It also limits relevant cartridges and tanks to 2ml.^[3]

The European Commission also sets notification and packaging requirements for e-cigarettes sold on the EU market.^[4]

For a new or substantially modified e-cigarette product, the required information must be submitted to the relevant Member State authorities through EU-CEG six months before the planned market launch.^[5]

The updated manufacturer-supplied NOVA 4in1 specifications state 20 mg/mL and 4 × 10 mL pre-filled chambers. These figures identify the supplied configuration; they do not establish regulatory compliance or confirm every online selector option.

Vapsolo QUADS lists 20mg/ml and 50mg/ml.

In common product labeling:

2% ≈ 20mg/ml

5% ≈ 50mg/ml

That means:

50mg/ml ÷ 20mg/ml = 2.5

A 50mg/ml version is 2.5 times the 20mg/ml nicotine concentration limit stated in Article 20.

Vapsolo has also published a QUADS version with four 7ml tanks:

7ml ÷ 2ml = 3.5

If those are nicotine-containing tanks covered by the rule, each 7ml tank is 3.5 times the EU 2ml limit.

This does not mean every Marsilen or Vapsolo product sold around the world uses the same setup. Brands can have different versions for different markets.

For an EU order, confirm:

• exact SKU or model code;
• nicotine concentration in mg/ml;
• liquid capacity;
• tank or cartridge structure;
• EU-CEG notification information;
• ingredient information;
• warning labels;
• packaging artwork;
• batch identification;
• manufacturer and importer information;
• required local-language information.

Do not accept “EU version” as the only proof. The documents should match the exact SKU you are buying.

UK Orders Need a Different Product Check

The UK has its own rules, so it should not simply be treated the same as an EU order.

The sale and supply of single-use vapes has been banned across the UK since 1 June 2025.

UK government guidance says a reusable vape must have both a rechargeable battery and a refillable container. A rechargeable battery by itself does not make the product reusable.^[6]

Both NOVA 4in1 and QUADS are described as rechargeable. For a UK order, check the actual construction of the product instead of assuming Type-C charging is enough to make it legally reusable.

Confirm Nicotine on the Exact SKU

Nicotine labels can be confusing because some product pages use percentages while others use mg/ml.

In common product labeling:

2% ≈ 20mg/ml

5% ≈ 50mg/ml

For compliance and purchasing documents, use the actual mg/ml concentration shown for the exact SKU rather than relying only on a percentage option on the website.

Nicotine is highly addictive. The World Health Organization states that e-cigarette emissions can contain nicotine and other harmful substances and that these products should not be treated as safe.^[7]

If you need a basic explanation of nicotine salts, Marsilen also has a nic salt guide. For an actual order, the product specification and compliance documents should always take priority.

Get Shipping Documents Before Comparing Freight

Both products contain rechargeable lithium batteries, so battery shipping documents also need to be checked.

Section 38.3 of the UN Manual of Tests and Criteria covers testing procedures for lithium cells and batteries before transport.^[8]

Before confirming a wholesale shipment, ask for:

• applicable lithium-battery test documentation;
• shipping method;
• warehouse location;
• units per carton;
• carton dimensions;
• gross and net weight;
• whether duties and taxes are included;
• the Incoterm used in the quotation.

If a freight quote does not include carton dimensions and weight, it is hard to compare properly. You cannot accurately work out shipping space or delivered cost per unit.

Buyer Checklist

Which Is Better for Wholesale?

If you only compare NOVA 4in1 with QUADS on the main published specifications, there is no obvious winner.

Both have four selectable flavors, advertise up to 80,000 puffs, use a 650mAh rechargeable battery, Type-C charging and a 1.0Ω mesh coil.

Marsilen may make more sense for buyers who want a smaller multi-flavor range. Its main NOVA lineup focuses on three- and four-flavor models, so there are fewer main product families to test and manage.

Vapsolo gives buyers more product levels. Twins Pro, Triple Pro, QUADS and SIXER cover two, three, four and six flavors.

The extra choice can also mean more inventory. Ten combinations sold in two nicotine strengths already become 20 different stock choices. If you keep 100 units of each, that is 2,000 units.

For a wholesale order, compare the actual MOQ, expected sales by combination, landed cost, current stock, carton data, sample results and the exact legal version for the market where you plan to sell.

FAQ

Is Marsilen better than Vapsolo?

Not in every case. NOVA 4in1 and QUADS have very similar published specifications. Marsilen keeps its main multi-flavor range smaller, while Vapsolo offers more device formats. Marsilen may be easier for retailers that want fewer SKUs. Vapsolo gives larger retailers more products to choose from.

Which has more flavors?

Marsilen NOVA 4in1 lists 21 individual flavor names across 10 four-flavor arrangements. Vapsolo QUADS publishes 10 four-flavor combinations. Vapsolo has a wider overall multi-flavor range because Twins Pro, Triple Pro and SIXER add two-, three- and six-flavor models.

Which has more puffs?

NOVA 4in1 and QUADS are both advertised at up to 80,000 puffs. Vapsolo SIXER is advertised at up to 180,000. These are manufacturer claims, not guaranteed real-world puff counts. Liquid capacity and actual sample performance should also be checked.

Which has the larger battery?

NOVA 4in1 and QUADS both list a 650mAh rechargeable battery. Marsilen NOVA 3in1 is listed with an 850mAh battery even though its advertised puff count is lower at up to 60,000. Battery size and puff count should therefore be looked at separately.

Which is easier to manage for wholesale?

Marsilen is simpler if you want fewer main multi-flavor models. Vapsolo has a wider range, but that can create more SKUs once model, flavor combination and nicotine strength are counted separately. The better choice depends on your sales volume, stock budget and how many SKUs you can manage properly.

How should a retailer calculate sell-through?

Divide the number of units sold by the number received, then multiply by 100. If 75 out of 100 units sell within 30 days, the 30-day sell-through rate is 75%. Use the same time period when comparing different combinations.

Why does MOQ per flavor matter?

A 100-unit mixed MOQ is very different from a 100-unit MOQ for every combination. With 10 combinations, the first may mean buying only 100 units in total, while the second means 1,000 units. Separate nicotine-strength MOQs can push the opening order even higher.

Is 5% nicotine allowed in the EU?

A 5% option is commonly around 50mg/ml. Article 20 of the EU Tobacco Products Directive sets a 20mg/ml nicotine concentration limit for products covered by the rule. Buyers should check the actual mg/ml figure on the exact SKU and its compliance documents.

Are 80,000 puffs guaranteed?

No. “Up to 80,000 puffs” is an advertised claim. Puff length, airflow, output and user habits all affect liquid use. Dividing 80,000 by four gives 20,000 advertised puffs per flavor position, but that is only a calculation, not a real-world guarantee.

What should be tested before a bulk order?

Check every flavor position, leakage, selector durability, charging, battery heat, flavor carryover and performance after longer use. Test several samples and record each problem by type. This makes it much easier to see whether the same fault is appearing repeatedly.

Is a 28ml QUADS automatically suitable for EU sale?

No. Vapsolo has published a QUADS version with four 7ml tanks. If those are nicotine-containing tanks covered by Article 20, each 7ml tank is above the EU 2ml limit. The exact market version and its compliance documents need to be checked before ordering.

Finally

Marsilen NOVA 4in1 and Vapsolo QUADS are very close on the main published specifications. The more useful difference for a buyer is how each product fits into the order. Marsilen keeps the multi-flavor range smaller, while Vapsolo offers more product levels. Before placing a wholesale order, work out how many SKUs you will actually need, check the MOQ for each one, compare landed cost and packing data, test real samples and make sure the exact version meets the rules in your market. Those checks tell you much more than the 80,000-puff number alone.
