IVG Pre-Filled Kits & Pods
IVG Pre-Filled Kits & Pods brings together the IVG devices that run on a ready filled pod along with the replacement pods that go in them. The collection holds 11 products, though availability is unusually thin at present. Two lines are in stock at the time of writing: the IVG Smart Max pre-filled pod kit at £10.99 and IVG Air replacement pods at £5.50.
A pre-filled pod kit is the format that took over from single use vapes in the UK. Sale of single use vapes ended on 1 June 2025, so any device sold today needs a rechargeable battery plus a pod or coil that can be replaced. The IVG pre-filled range does exactly that. The body recharges and the pod is swapped once it runs dry.
What changed on 1 June 2025
Regulations across all four UK nations banned the sale of single use vapes from that date. The test turns on two things: whether the device can be recharged and whether the coil or pod can be replaced. A device failing either test cannot legally be sold. Pre-filled pod kits pass both, which is why they became the mainstream option for anyone who previously bought bar style devices. The experience is close to the old format. The difference is that the battery stays with you instead of going in the bin every few days.
How pre-filled pods work
The pod arrives sealed with e-liquid already inside plus its own coil. You take it out of the wrapper, push it into the device and vape. When the flavour fades the whole pod comes out and a fresh one goes in, which means you get a new coil every time you change pod. That is the main practical advantage over a refillable kit, where the coil ages separately from the liquid and has to be swapped on its own schedule.
Capacity, strength and puff counts
UK rules cap a nicotine e-liquid pod at 2ml and cap nicotine strength at 20mg per ml. Both IVG lines listed here are 20mg nicotine salt. Manufacturers commonly quote around 600 puffs from a 2ml pod, which is roughly what a bar style device used to deliver before the ban. Treat any puff count as an estimate rather than a guarantee. Draw length, device power and how hard you pull all move the real figure considerably.
Pre-filled against refillable
Pre-filled wins on convenience. There is nothing to measure, nothing to spill and no coil to prime. Refillable wins on cost. A 10ml bottle of nic salt holds five times the liquid of a 2ml pod for a lower outlay, so the cost per millilitre is significantly better over time. At £5.50 the IVG Air replacement pods are competitive within the pre-filled category. Plenty of people start here then move across to a refillable pod kit once they have settled on a flavour they like.
Getting the best from your kit
Charge the device fully before first use even if it arrives with some charge in it. Fit a new pod then let it sit for a couple of minutes before the first draw so the wick saturates properly, which is the best way to avoid a burnt first puff. Store spare pods upright and away from heat. Keep the contacts on both the pod and the device clean, because most connection faults turn out to be condensation or a smear of liquid.

IVG pre-filled questions answered
Are these disposable vapes?
No. Single use vapes were banned from sale in the UK on 1 June 2025. Everything in this collection is a pre-filled pod kit, which means the body has a rechargeable battery and the pod is a replaceable part. The experience is similar to the old bar style devices. The difference is that the device itself is kept and recharged rather than thrown away.
How long does an IVG pre-filled pod last?
A 2ml pod is commonly quoted at around 600 puffs, which is comparable to the bar style devices sold before the ban. That figure is an estimate rather than a promise. Longer draws and heavier use will get through a pod noticeably faster. The reliable signal is flavour: when it fades or turns harsh, the pod is spent.
What nicotine strength are IVG pods?
The IVG pre-filled lines stocked here are 20mg nicotine salt, which is the maximum strength permitted under UK law. Nicotine salt is smoother in the throat than freebase nicotine at the same strength, which is why it is used throughout the pre-filled category. Pods are also capped at 2ml.
Is pre-filled cheaper than refilling my own pod kit?
No. Refilling from a 10ml bottle of nic salt works out cheaper per millilitre, because a 10ml bottle holds five times as much liquid as a 2ml pod. What you pay extra for with pre-filled is sealed convenience plus a fresh coil in every pod. Many people start pre-filled then move to refillable later.
Do I need to prime a pre-filled pod?
Not in the way you prime a bare coil, since the pod arrives already filled. It is still worth fitting the pod then leaving it a couple of minutes before your first draw so the wick fully saturates. Drawing immediately on a fresh pod is the most common cause of a burnt taste on the first puff.
Why is my device not firing with a new pod in?
Most often it is the contacts. Take the pod out and wipe both the pod base and the device contacts with a dry tissue, since condensation or a trace of liquid will interrupt the connection. Check the battery has charge as well. If it still will not fire, call the team on 07827 210361 between 8.30am and 4.00pm.
