SX Mini Pod Kits
SX Mini pod kits are compact refillable devices from a brand that built its reputation on chipset engineering rather than on styling. This collection holds 3 kits, all from the Puremax family, priced from £9.99 up to £25.99. Each is a self contained pod system where the pod clips into the battery, so there are no threads to line up and no glass to crack.
A pod kit is the natural first device for an adult switching from cigarettes and it remains the everyday choice for many long term vapers. It charges over USB, refills from any 10ml bottle and the pod is a replaceable part, which is what UK rules have required of every device sold since single use vapes were withdrawn on 1 June 2025.
The Puremax range
SXmini Puremax Pod Kit
At £9.99 the original Puremax is the entry point to the family and about as simple as a refillable device gets. It suits anyone who wants pod convenience without paying for output controls they will not use.
SX Mini Puremax Q Pod Kit
The Puremax Q sits in the middle of the range at £19.99. It is the sensible pick if you want a step up in battery and control while keeping the device pocketable.
SX Mini Puremax 2 Pod Kit
At £25.99 the Puremax 2 is the flagship of the three. Check its product page for the exact battery capacity, wattage range and pod resistances supplied, since these differ across the family.
Pod kits, AIO devices and box mods
A pod kit keeps the e-liquid in a small removable pod that either holds the coil or takes a replaceable one. An all in one device builds the tank into the body instead. A box mod is a powered body on its own that takes whichever 510 tank you screw onto it. The Puremax kits sit firmly in the first camp, where convenience and pocket size matter most.
Mouth to lung or direct to lung
Mouth to lung means a tight restricted draw where vapour is held in the mouth before it is inhaled. It is the closest sensation to a cigarette and it pairs with coils above 1.0 ohm and 50/50 e-liquid at up to 20mg per ml. Direct to lung means an open airy draw, which needs a sub ohm coil, more power and a high VG shortfill at 3mg or 6mg.
Coils, pods and running costs
The purchase price of the kit is the small part of the bill. Pods and e-liquid are the recurring outlay and within two months they will exceed what the device cost. Expect to change a pod every one to two weeks. Sweet dessert flavours cut that roughly in half because sucralose caramelises on the coil. Check that replacement pods for any kit are widely stocked before committing to it.
Filling and first use
Fill the pod from the side or base port, replace the bung firmly then stand it upright for five minutes so the cotton wets through before the first draw. That single pause is the difference between a pod that lasts a fortnight and one that tastes burnt on day one.

SX Mini pod kit questions answered
Are SX Mini Puremax kits refillable?
Yes. Every kit here uses a refillable pod that you top up yourself from a 10ml bottle or a shortfill. Nothing in this range is pre-filled or single use. UK rules have required rechargeable refillable devices since single use vapes were banned on 1 June 2025.
Which SX Mini pod kit should I choose?
The Puremax at £9.99 is the simplest way into the range. The Puremax Q at £19.99 adds capability for a moderate step up in price. The Puremax 2 at £25.99 is the top of the family. Battery capacity, wattage range and the pods supplied differ between them, so read the individual product pages first.
What e-liquid works in an SX Mini pod kit?
It depends on the pod resistance. A pod above 1.0 ohm is a mouth to lung pod and wants a balanced 50/50 blend, which means a 10ml nic salt at up to 20mg per ml. A pod below 1.0 ohm is sub ohm and needs a thicker high VG shortfill at 0mg to 6mg. Thin liquid in a sub ohm pod causes leaking.
How often do I need to change the pod?
One to two weeks is typical. Sweet dessert and candy e-liquids shorten it considerably because the sweetener in them caramelises onto the coil. The signs are easy to spot. Flavour goes dull or tastes burnt, vapour thins out and the draw feels hotter. Letting a new pod stand for five minutes after filling noticeably extends its life.
Can I use an SX Mini pod kit as a beginner?
Yes. Pod kits are the usual recommendation for adults switching from cigarettes because there is nothing to assemble. You fill the pod, clip it in and draw. Start with a mouth to lung pod and a nic salt between 10mg and 20mg if you were a regular smoker. Try 10mg if you smoked lightly.
Is delivery free and how long does it take?
UK delivery is free on all orders over £20 and orders placed on working days are dispatched quickly. To check pod availability before you order or for help choosing between the three Puremax models, call the team on 07827 210361 between 8.30am and 4.00pm.
