Pre-Filled Pod Kits
A pre-filled pod kit is a rechargeable device that takes sealed pods filled with e-liquid at the factory. You vape a pod, then click in a fresh one instead of refilling from a bottle. This collection holds 70 pre-filled pod kits from names including Elf Bar, Lost Mary, IVG, Hayati, Innokin, Uwell, Vaporesso, Oxva, Mevol and Vapes Bars, spanning compact single pod devices through to multi flavour units that carry several pods in one body.
These kits exist because single use vapes were prohibited from sale across the UK on 1 June 2025. The convenience that made bar style devices popular did not disappear with them. It moved into a format where the battery recharges over USB-C and the pod is the only part you replace. Every device on this page is rechargeable, takes a replaceable pod and is sold to adults aged 18 and over only.
How the format works
The device body holds the battery, the charging port and usually a screen or an indicator light. The pod holds the e-liquid and the coil together in one sealed unit. When the flavour fades or the pod runs dry you pull it out and push a new one in, which resets the coil at the same time. That is the quiet advantage over a refillable tank, where the coil ages independently of the liquid.
Pods are proprietary. A Hayati pod will not fit an Elf Bar device and an IVG pod will not fit an Oxva. Before you commit to a kit it is worth checking that replacement pods for it are widely stocked in flavours you actually want, because the pod range is what you live with day to day.
Puff counts and what they really mean
Devices in this collection carry figures such as 6000, 10K, 20K and higher. Those numbers describe the total puffs available across the full set of pods supplied or across the pod capacity, not the life of the battery on one charge. They are manufacturer estimates measured under laboratory draw conditions, so a long slow inhale will reach the figure sooner than the test does.
Recharging and battery care
Nearly all current kits charge over USB-C, with many supporting fast charge. Batteries in this format typically sit between 400mAh and 800mAh, which covers a day for most users. Avoid running the cell completely flat before every charge, unplug once it reads full and keep the device out of a hot car or direct sun. If a device charges yet produces no vapour, the usual cause is a dirty contact between the pod and the board.
Multi flavour and swappable pod devices
Several kits here hold more than one pod at a time. Two in one and four in one designs let you switch between flavours from a single body, which suits anyone who wants a menthol in the morning and a dessert in the evening without carrying two devices. The trade off is bulk, so single pod devices remain the most pocketable option.
Cost per pod against refilling
Pre-filled is the convenient route rather than the cheapest one. A pod costs more per millilitre than a 10ml bottle of nic salt because you are paying for the sealed coil and the packaging alongside the liquid. Refillable pod kits invert that. The device costs a little more, the coils or pods cost less over time and the whole e-liquid market opens up to you. Many vapers start on pre-filled while they settle on a flavour direction, then move to a refillable device once they know what they like.
Nicotine strengths and UK limits
Pre-filled pods are commonly sold at 10mg or 20mg per ml in nicotine salt form, which is why they feel smooth at strengths that would be harsh in freebase. UK regulations cap nicotine e-liquid at 20mg per ml and limit a pre-filled tank or pod to 2ml of nicotine containing liquid, which is why a high puff count device ships with several pods rather than one large one. Every nicotine product must be notified to the Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency before it goes on sale.
Recycling and disposal
The pod and the device both contain electronics, so neither belongs in household waste. Pods should go to a vape recycling point or a WEEE collection. The same applies to the body once it reaches the end of its life. Most local authority recycling centres accept small electricals and many vape retailers operate a takeback point in store.
Delivery and support
UK delivery is free on orders over £20 and orders placed on working days are picked promptly. If you want to check which pods fit a device you already own or need a recommendation before ordering, the team is on 07827 210361 between 8.30am and 4.00pm.
Pre-filled pod kit questions answered
What is a pre-filled pod kit?
It is a rechargeable vape device that takes sealed pods already filled with e-liquid. The battery charges over USB and the pod contains both the liquid and the coil, so replacing a pod gives you a fresh coil at the same time. It is the closest legal equivalent to the bar style devices that were withdrawn from UK sale on 1 June 2025.
Are single use vapes still available in the UK?
No. The sale of single use vapes ended across the UK on 1 June 2025. Any device sold now has to have a rechargeable battery and a replaceable coil or pod. Pre-filled pod kits meet both requirements because the body recharges and the pod is swapped rather than the whole unit being thrown away.
How many puffs does a pre-filled pod kit give?
Kits in this collection quote figures from around 1000 up to 50K. Those numbers cover the total across all the pods supplied or the pod capacity rather than a single battery charge. They are laboratory estimates, so a longer or harder draw will reach the total sooner. Use them as a guide to how much liquid you are buying.
Can I refill a pre-filled pod?
Pods in this format are sealed at the factory and are designed to be replaced rather than topped up. Some manufacturers do offer a refillable version of the same device, which lets you use your own 10ml nic salt. Check the product description for the word refillable before assuming a pod can be opened, because forcing a sealed pod usually breaks the seal and causes leaking.
Do pods from one brand fit another brand of device?
No. Pod fitment is proprietary to each device family. A Hayati pod will not seat in an Elf Bar body and an IVG pod will not work in an Oxva kit. Before buying a kit it is worth checking that replacement pods for it are widely stocked in the flavours you like, since the pod range determines your day to day experience.
What nicotine strength do pre-filled pods come in?
Most are sold at 10mg or 20mg per ml as nicotine salt. UK law caps nicotine e-liquid at 20mg per ml and limits a nicotine containing pod to 2ml, which is why devices quoting very high puff counts ship with several pods instead of one large reservoir. Nicotine free versions are also available in some ranges.
Is a pre-filled kit cheaper than a refillable one?
Usually not over time. You pay more per millilitre for a pre-filled pod because the sealed coil and the packaging are built into the price. A refillable pod kit costs a little more upfront yet lets you buy 10ml bottles or shortfills at a much lower cost per millilitre. Pre-filled wins on convenience rather than on running cost.
How do I recycle a pod and the device?
Both contain electronics so neither should go in household waste. Take used pods to a vape recycling point or a WEEE collection. Do the same with the body once it stops holding a charge. Most local recycling centres accept small electricals and many vape shops operate a takeback bin for pods.
