Refillable Vapes

What Are Refillable Vapes?

A refillable vape is a device that is designed to be used for long-term vaping. Unlike disposables, these devices can be manually refilled by the user through a replaceable cartridge known as a “pod”, which connects to the main device.

A refillable pod vape differs from vape pens, which are often refilled via a built-in tank. You can also purchase reusable devices that use refillable pods.

A pod vape is quick and easy to refill, making it brilliant for beginners switching from cigarettes or disposables. Simply open the port and fill the pod with any e-liquid flavour you fancy.

Depending on your chosen device and model, you will either dispose of the whole pod or the coil inside the pod. You’ll know when it’s time for a replacement when you notice reduced vapour production and a muted burnt taste.

These refillable devices are often rechargeable vapes, too, and include a built-in battery powered by a USB-C cable to keep you vaping all day.

What E-Liquids Can You Use with Refillable Pod Vapes?

If you’re using refillable pods, we’d recommend using nicotine salts for the best vaping experience. This is because pod vapes have low wattage and high-resistance coils designed to enhance flavour and nicotine hit. Nic salts paired with a pod vape will result in less vapour production and a more mellow throat hit.

Why Choose a Reusable Vape?

Making the switch to a refillable vape is not only a brilliant investment for you as a vaper, but this choice can help you invest in the environment.

More Eco-Friendly Alternative to Disposables

Single-use vape devices create a huge amount of waste because they’re only built to last around 600 puffs. When you purchase a refillable vape, you’ll be using the equivalent of several disposables in a single device. This helps to greatly reduce the amount of plastic and batteries we see in landfills and recycling plants.

Cost-Effective for Vapers

When you buy a refillable vape kit, the savings you make compared to purchasing disposables are huge. You won’t be buying a new device each time you run out, and instead you’ll only need to occasionally purchase new coils, pods or e-liquid. A single bottle of e-liquid can last weeks, whereas a disposable only offers 2ml of vape juice, which typically lasts a few days. If you want an affordable vaping option, purchasing replacement coils or pods is far better for your bank than continuously buying single-use vapes.

Vast Flavour Options

Refillable devices are compatible with a wide range of e-liquids, meaning you won’t be stuck with just one brand or flavour. You can mix and match anything you want and even use multiple pods to switch out flavours throughout the day. Whether you’ve got a sweet tooth and love dessert e-liquid flavours or are more into classics like menthol or tobacco, you have a wide variety of options to choose from.

Varied Nicotine Options

When you purchase a disposable, you’re restricted to the nicotine strength of that device, which is usually 20mg. With refillable devices, you’re able to control how much as well as the type of nicotine you vape. You can choose to add freebase nicotine or nic salts to your pods or tank and choose anywhere between 0mg and 20mg of nicotine.

Refillable Vape FAQs

What’s the Difference Between Refillable and Disposable Vapes?

Refillable vapes are designed to be used long term and can be refilled manually with your desired e-liquids. Disposables are defined as single-use vapes and come prefilled with a single flavour. Once the e-liquid runs out or the battery dies, the entire device needs to be disposed of.

Are Reusable Vapes Suitable for Beginner Vapers?

Pod vapes are designed to be user-friendly and easy to refill, making them perfect for first-time vapers switching from smoking. There is little maintenance involved with these devices, simple one-button operation and auto draw technology. Refilling your e-liquid is also hassle-free and doesn’t create any mess.

How Often Do I Need to Change the Coil in a Refillable Vape?

It’s usually recommended to change your coil every week or every other week. How regularly you change the coil can vary depending on how frequently you vape, with regular vapers needing fresh coils more often than more casual vapers. You should also change your coil if you notice a burnt taste, hear gurgling sounds as you inhale, or if there is a reduction in taste and vapour production.

What E-liquids Are Best for Refillable Pod Vapes?

To ensure you have the best vaping experience, it’s recommended that 50/50 liquids or nicotine salt vape liquids be used in pod vapes. Higher VG liquids like 70/30 produce more vapour and require a higher heat and wattage, which lower-powered devices like pod vapes struggle to produce.

How Do You Maintain a Pod Device?

There is very minimal maintenance involved in looking after your pod device. Every so often, you should rinse and clean your pod and wipe down the mouthpiece with an antibacterial wipe. You’ll also need to prime your coil with vape liquid before you use it. This will prevent the burning taste and dry hits.
