All About Prefilled Pod Vape Kits

Prefilled pod kits are an excellent place to start your vaping journey. However, with the UK government banning  disposable vapes in June 2025, these will be your only option if you aren't ready to take on a refillable pod kit.

Prefilled pod kits are a middle ground between disposable vapes and refillable pod kits. They have the rechargeable battery of a refillable pod kit, but swap out the refillable pods with ones prefilled with e-liquid, making the whole affair far more manageable and with much less hassle. Beginner vapers who are just starting their vaping journey will find these kits very simple and easy to use.

A prefilled pod kit consists of the device with a battery and the pod. Let's examine how these parts work individually.

The rechargeable battery provides power to your prefilled pod kit. Using its power to heat the coil in your pod, it vaporises the e-liquid and turns it into vapour. Typically, most prefilled pod kits have a 400-1000mAh battery, which is powerful enough to give you a full day of vaping.

The prefilled pods are where the magic happens. The heated-up coil vaporises the e-liquid contained within and turns it into vapour. Prefilled pod kit pods are just that - prefilled. The device will often have an internal pod with 2 ml of e-liquid, usually at 20 mg nicotine strength, and will come with a 10 ml prefilled refill pod inserted into the device. When you have finished e-liquid, you simply throw the pod away and pop in a new one. This makes prefilled pod kits more straightforward and less intimidating for new vapers.

Setting up a prefilled pod kit is relatively simple. The box contains everything you need for vaping, including the battery device and a prefilled pod. The battery device has a Type-C USB port for charging and a space to insert the pod.

To insert the pre-filled pod, look for stickers to remove and check if your pod has a push or pull activation. Pod activation simply means letting the e-liquid come into contact with the coil, as they're usually kept separate to maintain freshness. Once activated, prime your coil by letting the pod sit for 5-10 minutes.

Then, insert the pod into the device (most times, you'll have to push until you hear a click), and your prefilled pod kit is ready to vape!

As you can probably already tell, prefilled pod kits have plenty of advantages and benefits regarding vaping devices. So, let's take a closer look at those benefits:

• Rechargeable Battery— Unlike disposable vapes, prefilled pod kits have rechargeable batteries that use the standard Type-C USB port. Vapers will find this highly convenient, as it significantly reduces the amount of electronic waste produced and helps protect the environment.

• Simple to use and Hassle-Free - With no coils to change, no e-liquid to fill, and no settings to fiddle about with, prefilled pod kits are a pick-up-and-go type of device, allowing vapers of all skill levels to enjoy a seamless vaping experience, with very minimal maintenance involved.

• Replaceable Prefilled Pods— Unlike disposable vapes, which you throw away when finished with a prefilled pod kit pod, you just have to throw away the pod, not the whole device. This offers the same experience as disposable vapes for less money. Being very cost-effective, you can usually get the same flavours and nicotine strength that you're used to from your favourite disposable vape brands.

• Brands You Can Trust—Many prefilled pod kits are manufactured by well-known and reputable brands such as Elf Bar and IVG "I Vape Great, which make popular disposable vape devices. Having these big names behind the products guarantees excellent quality and safety standards. They also provide the identical e-liquids you love in prefilled pod form, so you can always find a flavour you love.
