Melo’s lineup kept popping up in the same buyer conversations. People wanted a familiar draw. They also wanted 0% nicotine options. That mix pushed me to test the main Melo-family devices in a strict, repeatable way.
I ran the devices as daily carries, not desk toys. Each one went through commute pulls, short work-break sessions, and longer evening sessions. I tracked heat, consistency, and the way flavor holds up. Then I wrote down what changed after the first day.
Our fixed team stayed the same. Marcus pushed long sessions and higher frequency. Jamal treated each device like a pocket tool. Dr. Adrian Walker reviewed the safety framing and stripped any language that drifted into health promises.

Product Overview
| Device | Pros | Cons | Ideal For | Price | Overall Score |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| MELO Air Melatonin Diffuser | Clean draw feel, simple size, broad flavor set | Lower puff count, short runway for heavy users | Light daily use, quick evening pulls | ~30 | 4.0 |
| MELO Plus Melatonin Diffuser | Longer lifespan, steadier output, good dessert profiles | Bulkier carry, flavor can fade late-life | Regular users who still want simple carry | ~$19.99 | 4.2 |
| ZERO Plant Powered 2000 | Stronger “vape-like” volume, more life than MELO Air | Can feel dry on long chains, limited premium feel | Moderate users wanting more vapor | ~20 | 4.1 |
| ARRØ Max 5000 Plant Powered | Rechargeable, good longevity, stable mid-life flavor | Bigger body, flavor can vary by batch | All-day carry, fewer replacements | ~25 | 4.3 |
| ARRØ Ultra 15000 Plant Powered | Screen, modes, long life, strong output headroom | Size, weight, easy to overuse in turbo | Heavy patterns, “one device for weeks” | ~30 | 4.4 |
Testing Team Takeaways
I kept circling back to the same idea. Melo’s core strength is frictionless use. No settings. No parts. The weak point shows up when someone expects a long, high-output run without changing anything. I felt that gap the most on smaller bodies, especially MELO Air. On the bigger ARRØ devices, the draw stayed more consistent, yet the form factor changed the whole vibe. “This one makes me forget it’s in my hand, then I look down and realize I’ve been pulling too much,” I wrote after a long stretch on the Ultra.
Marcus treated the lineup like a stress test. He chained pulls. He pushed heat. He watched for that sharp edge where vapor gets thin and taste turns papery. The smaller units hit that edge sooner. The high-capacity ARRØ bodies stayed steadier, though he still flagged turbo habits. “It stays stable longer than I expected, but turbo makes it easy to chase the next pull,” he said after a late-night session with the Ultra.
Jamal focused on carry behavior. He checked mouthpiece comfort. He watched for pocket lint issues. He also cared about whether the device felt “finished” as a daily tool. MELO Air won his pocket ranking. ARRØ Max stayed acceptable, mostly due to recharge. ARRØ Ultra felt like a commitment. “If I’m commuting, I want it gone in my pocket. Ultra feels like I’m packing gear,” he said after two days rotating it.

What We Tested and How We Tested It
Flavor testing started with short pulls. Then we ran longer sessions. Each flavor got a first-impression pass, then a “day two” pass. I watched whether sweetness turns flat. Marcus watched whether the finish turns dry. Jamal tracked aftertaste between short sessions.
Throat hit stayed in the subjective lane. We wrote down sharpness, smoothness, and where the sensation sits. Nobody framed it as a health effect.
Vapor production got measured in real use. We did quick pulls in a calm room. We did outdoor pulls in moving air. The goal stayed simple. A device should match its own promise.
Airflow and draw smoothness got judged by consistency. We listened for whistle. We also checked whether the draw “breaks” under repeated pulls. A stable draw matters more than a flashy first puff.
Battery and charging behavior relied on daily patterns. For rechargeable units, we logged charge habits and whether heat showed up around the port. For non-rechargeable units, we tracked when performance dipped.
Leak and condensation control got checked with pocket carry. Jamal did the harshest test here. He moved with the device all day. He also checked mouthpiece moisture at random times.
Build quality and durability came from handling. Drops stayed light, from pocket height onto safe surfaces. We looked for cracks, rattle, loose mouthpieces, and button issues on screen units.
Ease of use covered setup friction, draw reliability, and end-of-life behavior. Portability covered pocket comfort, weight, and whether the shape creates accidental mess in a bag.
Melo Vapes Our Testing Experience
MELO Air Melatonin Diffuser — The Pocket Reset Stick

Our Testing Experience
MELO Air is the one I kept grabbing without thinking. The body feels small enough to disappear in a pocket. That matters when a device is supposed to be a background tool. I carried it during errands and short work breaks. The first day went smoothly. Draw activation stayed consistent. No surprise misfires showed up. The mouthpiece stayed clean enough, though I still wiped it, since pocket carry always adds grime.
Marcus approached it differently. He treated it like a short-capacity stress unit. He took longer chains to see where it falls apart. The device stayed calm early, then it started thinning out sooner than he wanted. Heat stayed mild, but the output drifted faster than the bigger devices. “It’s fine when you respect what it is, but it does not want marathon sessions,” he said while handing it back.
Jamal liked the size and the simple feel. He kept it in a jacket pocket, then in a jeans pocket, then in a gym bag side pocket. The finish resisted scuffs better than I expected. The bigger issue was lifespan. The lower puff count forced replacement sooner. Jamal’s quote stuck with me. “This is the one I actually carry, then I get annoyed when it’s done,” he said.
Draw Experience & Flavors
The draw on MELO Air feels tight-to-mid. It lands closer to a gentle MTL pull than a wide open cloud pull. The vapor shows up soft, not dense. That shape changes how flavors read. Sweet notes pop first. Then, if you chain it, the sweetness can start feeling thinner.
Cotton Candy was the easiest baseline. On inhale, it feels airy, with a spun-sugar vibe that stays light. The throat feel stays mild. That makes it comfortable for short, frequent pulls. After a longer chain, the flavor starts drifting toward “plain sweet,” with less detail. Jamal liked it for quick hits. “It’s like the idea of cotton candy, not a syrup bomb,” he said.
Gummy Bear came in brighter. The inhale has a mixed-fruit snap. The mid-note leans toward candy pineapple and a soft berry edge. I noticed a slightly sharper finish than Cotton Candy, still mild overall. Marcus pushed it harder and caught a dry note late in the chain. “This one shows the limit fast if you keep pulling,” he said, and he was right.
Peach Cream felt smoother. The inhale has a round peach note, then a softer creamy finish. The cream is more like whipped vanilla than heavy custard. That makes the draw feel calmer. I kept returning to it when I wanted something mellow. The flavor stayed more stable than the brighter candies.
Rainbow Road tasted like a candy blend rather than a single fruit. On inhale, it lands as sweet and slightly tart, with a faint “cereal candy” vibe. The vapor texture still stays light. That lightness helps, since the flavor could feel heavy on denser devices. Jamal called it “weird in a good way,” then he kept using it anyway.
Midnight Mint delivered the cleanest “reset” sensation. It is not an icy menthol punch. It is more like a cool mint leaf note. The inhale feels sharper than the dessert flavors. The exhale feels cleaner. Marcus liked the way it kept the mouthpiece feeling fresher. “Mint hides the fade better,” he said, after the device got closer to end-of-life.
Lavender Dream is the most polarizing. The inhale gives a floral edge, then a sweet backing note. It can feel perfumey if you expect candy. When I kept pulls short, it stayed pleasant. When I chained pulls, the floral note got louder. Jamal backed off fast. “I can do it once, then I need a break,” he said.
Banana sits in the middle. It tastes like a ripe banana candy note, not a green banana. It has a soft sweetness. It also fades a bit faster than Peach Cream in my notes.
Best draw experience flavors, based on our use: Peach Cream for steady mellow pulls, Midnight Mint for a clean-feeling finish. Flavor list and positioning come from maker materials.

MELO Plus Melatonin Diffuser — The Longer Night Companion

Our Testing Experience
MELO Plus feels like the natural step up from MELO Air. It stays simple, yet it lasts longer. That “longer” part changes everything. I ran it as a main device for several days. The first thing I noticed was stability. Output stayed closer to the same level across more sessions. The device also handled longer pulls without dropping off as fast as MELO Air. The body is a bit bulkier. Pocket carry still works. It just feels more present.
Marcus liked the extra runway. He pushed it through longer chains. Heat stayed controlled. The bigger win was consistency. Flavor still fades late-life, but not as abruptly. “This one holds its shape longer,” he said after comparing the same flavor profile across two days.
Jamal judged it as a “real carry” device. It still slides into a pocket, though he preferred MELO Air when wearing fitted pants. In a jacket pocket, he had no complaints. He also liked that he did not need to replace it as quickly. “Less swapping, less thinking,” he said.
MELO Plus is widely described as an ~800 puff device.
Draw Experience & Flavors
MELO Plus draws slightly looser than MELO Air. Vapor feels thicker. That changes flavor perception. Dessert profiles read fuller. Fruit profiles feel less “airy candy,” more like a rounded inhale.
Cotton Candy on MELO Plus lands richer than on MELO Air. The inhale gives a thicker sugar note. The throat feel stays soft, yet the vapor body makes it feel more “vape-like.” I noticed less flavor drift early in life. Late in life, it can flatten, though it still stays pleasant.
Gummy Bear tastes punchier here. The mixed fruit note sits deeper. Marcus liked it for the first half of the device life. Then, after a lot of chaining, he caught a dry edge. “When it’s fresh, it’s loud. When it’s tired, it gets papery,” he said.
Heaven is the one that surprised me. It reads like a light, sweet “dessert air” profile, closer to vanilla sugar with a soft fruit accent. It is not heavy. That makes it easy for repeated pulls. Jamal kept stealing it. “This is the flavor I don’t get tired of,” he said, then asked where it sits in the lineup.
Cosmic Berry leans darker. The inhale brings a berry blend, more like mixed berry candy with a slight tart edge. The exhale feels thicker than MELO Air flavors. That thickness helps flavor presence. It also can feel cloying if you chain it too long. I used it in shorter sessions.
Georgia Peach lands closer to a bright peach. Compared with Peach Cream, it loses the creamy buffer and goes straight fruit. The inhale feels sharper. The throat feel stays mild, though the fruit acidity impression makes it seem a touch stronger.
Blue Cloud is a soft berry-cotton vibe. It’s not exactly “blue razz.” It’s more like sweet berry with a cloud-like finish. Jamal liked it for quick pulls between tasks. He said “it’s sweet, but it doesn’t stick to my mouth,” which matched my notes.
Cherry Slush is colder in impression, even without being “ice.” It tastes like cherry candy with a slush-like brightness. On MELO Plus it feels more vivid than on smaller devices. Marcus still warned about long chains. Cherry can turn sharp if you overpull.
Orange Dreamsicle is the most dessert-forward. The inhale gives orange candy. Then a vanilla cream note follows. This was my “comfort flavor” in the lineup. It stayed pleasant for repeated use.
Best draw experience flavors, based on our use: Orange Dreamsicle for the richest inhale texture, Heaven for all-day palatability. Flavor lineup comes from MELO Plus listings.
Pros & Cons
| Pros | Cons |
|---|---|
| Longer life than MELO Air | Bulkier carry |
| Dessert flavors read fuller | Flavor still fades late-life |
| Output stays steadier | Not for high-output cloud chasing |

ZERO Plant Powered 2000 — The “More Vapor” Middleweight

Our Testing Experience
ZERO 2000 sits in a different lane than the MELO diffusers. The vapor feels more like a traditional disposable vape. That is the first thing Marcus noticed. He took one pull, then he took a second pull right away. He looked up and said, “Okay, this one actually shows up.” He pushed it through longer sessions and watched for heat. Heat stayed manageable. The bigger change was dryness. On long chains, the vapor started feeling drier than MELO Plus.
I treated it as a daily carry for errands and work breaks. It stayed consistent over several days. The draw was easy. The throat feel stayed mid, depending on flavor. I still kept pulls shorter than I would on an ultra-capacity device, since the device feels like it prefers a calmer cadence.
Jamal used it on the move. The size stayed reasonable. It did not feel as “tiny” as MELO Air. It did feel more vape-like in hand. He liked the more confident vapor presence, especially outdoors. “Outside, this one doesn’t disappear,” he said after a windy walk.
The listed specs on retailer pages describe a 0% nicotine device, around 2000 puffs, with a 5.4 ml tank and an 850 mAh battery. Those details helped frame our expectations.
Draw Experience & Flavors
ZERO 2000 draw sits mid. It is not as tight as MELO Air. It still is not a wide open DL tool. That middle draw changes the way flavors hit the mouth. The inhale feels thicker. The finish sits longer.
Arctic Peach came across as peach first, then cold brightness. The “arctic” feel is not the same as menthol burn, yet it gives a clean edge. Marcus liked it as a fatigue fighter. “Cold flavors hide the dry note,” he said, which matched our pattern.
Green Punch felt like a green fruit blend. The inhale tastes like sweet-tart punch, with an apple-leaning vibe. The exhale stays candy-like. On longer pulls, the sweetness can feel sticky. I used it in short sessions. Jamal liked it, then he got tired of it quicker.
Heaven on ZERO 2000 felt similar in name to MELO Plus Heaven, yet the vibe differed. It tasted more like sweet vanilla candy with less airy softness. The vapor thickness makes it feel heavier. I found it satisfying in small doses, less so as an all-day flavor.
Jolly Berries leaned bright and playful. The inhale gives mixed berries with a slightly tangy edge. The throat feel stays moderate. Marcus noticed the taste start drifting after heavier use. “Berry loses definition when the device gets tired,” he said after a day of hard pulls.
White Gummy tasted like a gummy candy blend with a softer citrus edge. It is sweet. The flavor feels rounded. Jamal liked it for commuting. “It’s sweet, but it doesn’t fight me,” he said while taking short pulls at stoplights.
If I had to pick the best draw experience flavors here, I’d pick Arctic Peach for the cleanest finish, then White Gummy for the most flexible daily use. Flavor list and core device specs come from retailer listings.
Pros & Cons
| Pros | Cons |

| Stronger vapor than MELO Air | Can feel dry on long chains |
| Mid draw suits many users | Flavor definition can drift late-life |
| Solid “vape-like” presence outdoors | Less “tiny pocket” than MELO Air |

ARRØ Max 5000 — The Rechargeable Workday Brick

Our Testing Experience
ARRØ Max 5000 changed my routine. Rechargeability removes the “dead device” problem. That matters for daily carry. I ran it as my main pocket device for multiple days. The body is larger than MELO Air. It feels closer to a small tool than a slim pen. Still, the trade felt worth it. I could top it up. Then I could keep using the same flavor without swapping devices.
Marcus focused on stability. He ran long sessions at home and outdoors. He watched for heat, especially while charging. He also watched the way output holds after repeated use. The device stayed consistent longer than the smaller units. “This one doesn’t fall over when you lean on it,” he said after pushing it hard.
Jamal liked the idea, then he argued with the size. In loose pockets it worked. In tighter pants it felt bulky. He still admitted the practical value. “If I’m out all day, I’d rather carry one chunky thing than two dead sticks,” he said.
Retail listings describe ARRØ Max as a rechargeable, 0% nicotine device, often stated at about 5000 puffs, with a 650 mAh battery and USB-C charging. Some listings also state a mesh coil and a 13 ml capacity.
Draw Experience & Flavors
The draw on ARRØ Max is mid. Vapor volume feels stronger than MELO Plus. It feels comparable or slightly stronger than ZERO 2000. The bigger reservoir helps output stability. Flavor feels more consistent through a longer middle stretch.
Icey Peach Rings tasted like peach candy with a cool finish. On inhale, it hits sweet peach ring sugar. Then the cooling sensation brightens the exhale. Marcus liked the way it kept the mouth feel fresh. “Cooling flavors keep this device honest,” he said after a long chain.
Peach Berry blended fruit notes without turning muddy. The inhale gave peach first. Then a berry note showed up in the back half. The blend stayed smooth. I wrote “balanced” in my notes more than once.
Strawberry Pomegranate Ice leaned sharper. The pomegranate brings a tart edge. Strawberry keeps it sweet. The cooling note adds lift. On long chains, tartness can start feeling a bit scratchier. Jamal used it outdoors and liked it more there. “Windy air makes this one feel cleaner,” he said.
Magic Mint is the “reset” flavor in this class. It feels colder than MELO Midnight Mint. The mint sits stronger. It also holds up over time, since mint doesn’t rely on delicate fruit top notes. I used it after heavier dessert pulls.
Hawaiian Ice is fruit-forward and sweet. It reads like a tropical blend. The cooling effect makes it feel brighter. It can start tasting repetitive if you overuse it. Marcus tagged it as “fun, not all-day.”
Strawberry Kiwi stayed classic. The inhale brings sweet strawberry, then kiwi tang. The exhale is bright. It stays easy to use in short sessions. It also holds definition reasonably well through mid-life.
Best draw experience flavors, based on our use: Icey Peach Rings for the clean candy-cool balance, Magic Mint for endurance and reset. Flavor names vary by seller, yet these are commonly listed for ARRØ Max-class devices.
Pros & Cons

ARRØ Ultra 15000 — The Weeks-Long Heavy Hitter

Our Testing Experience
ARRØ Ultra is the first device in this lineup that feels like “gear.” The screen changes behavior. Modes change behavior. The big capacity changes behavior. I carried it for several days and felt the temptation. It is easy to take more pulls, since the device does not feel like it’s running out. That becomes a usage habit issue, not a device failure.
Marcus immediately tested turbo behavior. He pushed long sessions and watched for heat. The device stayed stable. The vapor got thicker in turbo. The mouth feel got stronger too. “Turbo makes it easy to chase the next pull,” he said, and he kept repeating it.
Jamal judged it from a mobility lens. It can carry, yet it is not subtle. In loose pockets it works. In smaller pockets it feels heavy. He liked the screen for quick checks. He disliked the bulk. “It solves the battery anxiety, then it creates pocket annoyance,” he said during a commute test.
The official ARRØ Ultra listing describes an LED screen, a 650 mAh battery, USB-C charging, about 15,000 puffs in regular mode, about 10,000 in turbo, and a dual mesh coil.
Draw Experience & Flavors
ARRØ Ultra draw feels mid-to-open compared with the MELO devices. Vapor output also lands highest here. Flavor perception changes as a result. Sweet notes feel heavier. Cooling notes feel more intense. This device can make a flavor feel “too much” if you chain it.
Rowdy Rancher hit as a hard candy blend. The inhale feels sweet and bright. The finish tastes like mixed fruit candy. On regular mode, it stays enjoyable. On turbo, it can feel almost syrupy. Marcus liked it for short blasts. “It’s loud, but it can get sticky fast,” he said.
Jolly Blue Razz leans classic blue candy. The inhale has that sharp blue note. The exhale carries a sweet finish. It stays bold. It also can fatigue your palate. Jamal used it while walking and said “it feels louder than I want indoors.”
Lush Ice is watermelon with cooling. On this device, the cooling hits harder. The inhale gives sweet watermelon. Then the cold note lands and cleans up the finish. This was my “outdoor flavor.” Wind and movement made it feel cleaner.
Magic Mint felt like the most stable daily option. The inhale is mint-forward. The cooling sensation stays steady. It also stays consistent through long use, at least in our sample. When I needed a reset, I reached for mint.
Strawberry Ice gave a sweet strawberry inhale, then cold brightness. It reads clean. It also stays easy for repeated use, more than blue candy profiles.
Georgia Peach tasted softer than the candy flavors. The peach note feels round. The exhale stays sweet. In turbo mode, the peach can feel heavy, almost like peach syrup. In regular mode, it stayed balanced.
Heaven on the Ultra felt creamy-sweet. It carried that soft dessert vibe. The bigger output makes it feel richer than on MELO Plus. It is satisfying, yet it can get cloying if overused.
Best draw experience flavors, based on our use: Magic Mint for long-term stability, Lush Ice for the best “big output” balance without syrup fatigue. Flavor availability appears widely listed across ARRØ Ultra collections and retailer pages.

Best Picks
-
Best Melo Vape for All-Day Balance: ARRØ Max 5000
ARRØ Max kept the best mix of battery practicality, steady flavor, and daily reliability. The score table shows strength in battery life and vapor output. Jamal still carried it on full days, despite the size. -
Best Melo Vape for Pocket Carry: MELO Air
MELO Air earned the portability score. The small body changed daily behavior. Jamal’s carry notes stayed positive, even when he complained about lifespan. -
Best Melo Vape for Big Output Sessions: ARRØ Ultra 15000
ARRØ Ultra topped vapor production and build quality. Marcus also kept praising stability under heavier use. The trade shows up in portability and turbo temptation.
How to Choose the Melo Vape
Start with your usage pattern. Short sessions favor small bodies. All-day patterns favor recharge.
Think about draw preference. Tight-to-mid draw fits people who like gentle pulls. Mid-to-open draw fits people who want more vapor.
Flavor preference matters. Dessert flavors feel richer on bigger output devices. Cooling profiles hold up longer for many users.
Device type shapes maintenance. Disposable diffusers remove upkeep. Rechargeable disposables reduce replacements, yet they add charging habits.
Budget should be treated as “cost per week,” not sticker price. Small devices can cost more per puff. Larger devices can cost more upfront.
Matching guidance from our testing:
A light adult user who wants simple carry usually fits MELO Air. Jamal treated it like a pocket tool. It stayed easy and discreet.
A moderate adult user who wants a steadier routine fits MELO Plus or ZERO 2000. MELO Plus felt smoother and more dessert-friendly. ZERO 2000 felt more “vape-like” outdoors.
A commuter who hates dead devices fits ARRØ Max 5000. Rechargeability changed the daily friction. Output stayed consistent through long use.
A heavy pattern adult user who wants one device for weeks fits ARRØ Ultra 15000. Marcus pushed it hard and saw stability. The size penalty stays real, though.
Limitations
These Melo-family devices lean on convenience. That convenience comes with trade-offs.
Users who want precise control will not get it here. There are no wattage settings on MELO Air, MELO Plus, ZERO 2000, or ARRØ Max. ARRØ Ultra adds modes, yet it still is not a full tuning platform. A person who wants exact draw tailoring will feel boxed in.
People who hate sweet profiles will struggle. Even the mint options tend to carry a sweet base. That sweet base can build palate fatigue. We felt it most on higher output devices, where sweetness hits harder.
Ultra-light pocket users will reject the larger bodies. ARRØ Max already pushes pocket comfort. ARRØ Ultra pushes it further. Jamal tolerated them only when the day demanded endurance.
Flavor consistency can vary by batch and seller. That is common with disposable markets. It showed up as small differences in sweetness and cooling intensity. The effect is bigger when a user buys across multiple retailers.
Long, heavy chain sessions can make dryness show up. Marcus saw it on the mid-capacity devices first. A user who pulls constantly will feel the shift faster.
None of these devices remove nicotine-related risk if a user still uses nicotine elsewhere. This lineup is 0% nicotine by listing. Adults still need to treat inhaled aerosols with caution. Public health bodies keep warning that inhaled aerosols can contain substances that irritate lungs.
Is the Melo Vape Lineup Worth It?
The Melo lineup targets convenience. That statement fits the whole set. MELO Air stays small. It also stays simple. Its puff count is limited. That limitation shows up fast for frequent users. The device still works well for short sessions. Jamal carried it more than anything else.
MELO Plus adds endurance. It still feels like a simple stick. Flavor holds longer than MELO Air. Dessert profiles feel fuller. The carry size increases a bit. Jamal noticed that in tighter pockets. The value stays solid when a user wants steady daily use.
ZERO 2000 moves closer to a traditional disposable vape feel. Vapor volume rises. Outdoor use improves. Marcus liked that shift. Dryness can show up on long chains. That pattern matters for heavy users. The device still fits a normal pocket.
ARRØ Max changes the practical picture. Rechargeability matters. A user can treat it as a daily tool. Battery anxiety drops. Flavor also holds better through mid-life. Size increases. Jamal accepted it on long days. He rejected it on casual quick trips. That carry trade-off defines its value.
ARRØ Ultra pushes capacity and output. The screen helps track battery and juice. Turbo mode increases output. Regular mode feels more controlled. Marcus liked the stability. He still warned about turbo habits. The device feels big in a pocket. Jamal felt that every commute. The value stays high for heavy patterns. The value drops for minimal carry users.
Pricing depends on retailer. The cost-per-day can still favor the higher capacity devices. ARRØ Max and ARRØ Ultra reduce replacement frequency. MELO Air can feel pricey per puff. That is true even when the sticker price looks lower.
Safety language needs discipline. These products are marketed as nicotine-free. They still create aerosols. Public health sources warn that e-cigarette aerosols can contain chemicals and fine particles. That risk framing remains relevant, even when nicotine is absent.
Worth it depends on the adult user’s real goal. If the goal is discreet carry, MELO Air fits. If the goal is a steady routine, MELO Plus fits. If the goal is “one device for the workday,” ARRØ Max fits. If the goal is long endurance and strong vapor, ARRØ Ultra fits.
Pro Tips for Melo Vape
- Keep pulls short at first, then adjust to the device’s output.
- Wipe the mouthpiece daily, especially after pocket carry.
- Store the device upright when possible, to reduce mouthpiece moisture.
- Avoid long chain sessions on smaller devices, since dryness can build.
- For rechargeable units, use a standard USB-C cable and avoid hot charging environments.
- Rotate flavors when sweetness fatigue shows up.
- Pick mint or “ice” profiles for longer daily use when fruit gets tiring.
- Treat turbo modes as occasional use, not a default habit.
- Replace the device when flavor turns papery, not when you “can still pull.”
- Keep devices away from minors and from anyone who does not already use nicotine products.
FAQs
Are Melo vapes nicotine?
The Melo-family devices covered here are commonly listed as 0% nicotine. That includes MELO Air, MELO Plus, and ARRØ products in the tested set. Listings and maker pages describe them as nicotine-free.
How long does MELO Air last in real use?
MELO Air is often described as about 400 puffs. In our use, light patterns stretched it. Frequent patterns shortened it fast. Jamal’s short sessions helped it last longer.
How long does MELO Plus last compared with MELO Air?
MELO Plus is commonly positioned at about 800 puffs. That is roughly double the MELO Air class. In practice, the bigger difference is consistency across more sessions.

In our carry tests, ARRØ Max and ARRØ Ultra stayed clean. Minor mouthpiece moisture showed up late-life. That moisture is common in many disposables.
How often do you need to charge ARRØ Max and ARRØ Ultra?
Charge frequency depends on use pattern. Marcus needed more frequent top-ups due to heavy sessions. Jamal could go longer due to short pulls. The key is that recharge removes the “dead device” issue.
Which Melo vape is best for commuting?
MELO Air wins for pocket comfort. ARRØ Max wins for long commute days where replacements would annoy you. Jamal preferred Air for tight pockets, Max for long schedules.
Do flavors stay consistent from start to finish?
Flavor usually peaks early. It stays stable through the middle. Near end-of-life it can flatten. Marcus noticed this fastest on smaller devices. Mint and ice profiles hid fade better in our notes.
Is turbo mode worth using on ARRØ Ultra?
Turbo increases output. It also increases the chance of sweetness fatigue. Marcus used it in short bursts. Regular mode felt more consistent for long daily use.
