6 Best Prefilled Pod Kits for 2025 (UK)
With their compact, convenient design and huge variety of flavours, prefilled pod kits have proved a huge hit in the UK.
Ideal for beginner and experienced vapers alike, you’ll find prefilled vape kits in both disposable and reusable options. While not a new invention, we’ve personally noticed a surging number of reusable options since the announcement of the UK disposables ban - as they make the best option for those transitioning from single-use to reusable vapes.
With so many options to choose from, our in-house testing team has reviewed and selected 7 of the very best prefilled pod kits to help you find the best option for you.

Best prefilled pod kits in depth
IVG 2400: Multi-pod, multi-flavour design
Reviewed by: Corey, ECD Team
What sets the IVG 2400 apart from other other prefilled pod ranges is its multi-pod, multi-flavour design - with 4 x 2ml pods filled with individual flavours (although there are single-flavour options too!).
Trying the Pink Edition version, I found all of the flavours very refreshing with fruity notes and not-too-heavy ice or menthol. I’d definitely recommend a multi-flavour edition to vapers who don’t like being restricted to a single flavour and like to mix it up throughout the day.
In terms of usage, as a moderate to heavy vaper, the device lasted me around 3 days. This is a little less than 4 standard 2ml disposables would last me (typically a day each) - probably due to the 1750mAh battery being a little less than the combined capacity of 4 individuals. However, this is a small trade off for the multi-flavour options you get from this device.
What we like:
- Multi-flavour design
- 8ml e-liquid capacity

SKE Crystal CL6000: Beginner-friendly, disposable-style flavour
Reviewed by: Corey, ECD Team
The SKE Crystal CL6000 would make a perfect option for new vapers or those looking for an easy-to-use, cost-effective, reusable alternative to disposable devices.
While I initially found setting up the kit a little confusing, once I’d consulted the instructions it wasn’t too difficult and using the device is very easy. Being plastic, the build quality isn’t fantastic but is as I’d expect for a kit of this price.
The best thing about the CL6000 kit is the flavour. Using the Sour Pineapple pod, the taste was excellent - even better than you’d get from a disposable device. While I found the airflow a little restricted for my preference, It would be perfect for disposable users, especially fans of SKE Crystal Bar.
The 800mAh battery lasted me most of the day before needing to be recharged. I think if this was increased to 1000mAh it could comfortably last me over 24 hours’ use.
Overall, at less than £20 for the initial kit and pack of replacement pods, this is a great option for those looking for a cost-effective, reusable disposable alternative and a perfect starter kit.
What we like:
- Great flavour
- Easy to use & convenient
- Rechargeable battery
- Perfect starter kit and disposable alternative
Uwell Viscore 8000: Fantastic battery life
Reviewed by: Corey, ECD Team
The Uwell Viscore 8000 is the best ‘big puff’ prefilled pod kit I’ve used. With its premium build quality, fantastic battery life and flavour, as well as a choice of modes, it’s the perfect kit to suit my preferences.
The 1900mAh battery lasted me a full two days of usage - much longer than similar devices I’ve used with smaller batteries. The battery can also be recharged so you get full use of the 12ml e-liquid capacity and the digital battery display is also a handy feature.
I like that you get the choice of both Super mode and battery-saving Eco mode, which you can easily switch between by tapping the bottom of the device 3 times. The flavour production was as I expected - strong with good airflow and was given a real boost when in Super mode. However, I did find using this mode drained the battery and e-liquid levels a lot faster than when in Eco mode.
Overall, this is a fantastic kit that would appeal to anyone looking for flavour, longevity and convenience.
What we like:
- Premium build quality
- Long-lasting battery life
- Fantastic flavour
- Choice of modes
Lost Mary BM6000: Long-lasting, strong flavour
Reviewed by: Corey, ECD Team
The BM6000 kit has everything I’d expect from a Lost Mary device - with impressive build quality and a smooth MTL vape with strong flavour.
The main benefits of this kit are the 12ml e-liquid capacity (2ml pod and 10ml refill container) and the rechargeable 650mAh battery which offers extra longevity compared to standard disposable. The clear design of the refill container was a nice plus - allowing me to easily see the remaining levels.
Trying the Strawberry Raspberry Cherry Ice option, the more restricted draw isn’t to my personal preference but it did provide the strong flavour I’d expect from Lost Mary without being overly sweet. This balance means I could easily vape this flavour all day!

Elf Bar Elfa Pro: Compact & beginner-friendly
Reviewed by: Lloyd, ECD Team
If you’re familiar with Elf Bar disposables, the Elfa Pro has all the convenience and flavour you’d expect - just in a replaceable, prefilled pod format.
The device is easy to use and similar to disposables, with the main difference being that you can replace the pod when it’s empty. The battery can also be recharged, and the clear RGB indicator light at the bottom lets you know when the battery is running low.
The inhale firing activation is ultra-convenient and I found it very responsive and easy to inhale.
The build quality of this device is excellent and, being made from metal, feels far superior to Elf Bar disposables.
Testing the device using the Blue Sour Raspberry pod, I found the flavour was great and the set airflow produced a surprising amount of vapour for such a compact device.
Using the device straight from the box, I found I had to recharge it before the end of the day (probably due to the battery not being fully charged at first). However, when I’d fully recharged the battery it comfortably lasted a full day.
There are over 30 Elfa Pro pod flavours to choose from and, as an added bonus, the device is also compatible with Elfa and Lost Mary Tappo pods - offering even more options.
What we like:
- Easy to use
- High-quality build
- Strong flavour
- Lots of flavour choice
SKE Crystal Plus: Stylish design, great flavour
Like Elf Bar and Lost Mary, SKE has replicated the look and flavour of their popular disposables to a prefilled pod kit. However, the Crystal Plus pod kit sets itself apart with some impressive extras.
At first glance, the device has the same design as Crystal Bar disposables - with SKE’s signature crystal-like finish giving it a sleek, eye-catching look.
Using the Blueberry Raspberry Crystal Plus pod, I found the flavour and draw very similar to disposables. I also really liked the pod’s transparent design, as I could easily see how much e-liquid was left. (Tip: There’s also the option of a refillable Crystal Plus pod that can be used with any 50:50 e-liquid of your choice.)
I was very impressed with the device’s adjustable airflow. This not only gives you additional control over your vape but is something I haven’t seen in similar kits such as the Elfa Pro or Lost Mary Tappo.
As a heavier vaper, the 400mAh battery lasted me around half a day. This is similar to what a standard single-use vape would last but the benefit here is being able to recharge rather than throw away the device.
Overall, this is a great device for new users or single-use vapers looking for an easy-to-use, rechargeable alternative with strong, disposable-style flavour.
What we like:
- Stylish crystal-like design
- Strong flavour - just like Crystal Bar disposables
- Adjustable airflow
- Choice of prefilled and refillable pods
