A big puff vape works the same way a refillable or disposable vape works. Inside of a vape is the coil, tank/pod, and e-liquid. The tank/pod holds the e-liquid allowing for the cotton of the coil to soak it up. When you fire or puff your vape the coil heats up the e-liquid and creates a vapour you can inhale.
The battery inside of a pre-filled big puff vape is built-in. It's rechargeable via a USB-C port, meaning it's easy to recharge, you won't be without a vape for long.
The simple way to describe how a big puff vape works:
- Inhaling on the device
- Battery sends power to the vape coil.
- Coil heats up the e-liquid
- E-liquid vaporises
- You Inhale the vapour.
Big puff pre-filled pod kits are legal to vape and sell in the UK. All of the big puff vapes we stock on our website meet every law set out by the UK Government including the TPD regulations and the disposable vape ban. If you're purchasing from us or another reputable UK retailer you'll only have a choice between legal big puff vapes.
Single-use big puff vapes are however illegal. If the device is non-rechargeable and/or the pod cannot be changed, it is illegal to use in the UK. 20mg (2%) is the maximum nicotine strength legally allowed in the UK so if you see any vapes with a higher strength than this, pre-filled or disposable, it's illegal in the UK. There are some 5mg (0.5%) vapes available, not to be confused with the 50mg (5%) illegal vapes.
There are generally 2 different types of legal, pre-filled big puff vapes. The two common designs are:
- 4 x 2ml pods (4-in-1 devices) that can be rotated in the device. These pods can be the same flavour or different flavours. The most popular vapes that feature this design are the IVG 2400 Twist and the Crystal Bar 4-in-1 vape.
- A 2ml pod and a 10ml refill container that connects inside in the device allowing for a bigger puff count. The 10ml container refills the 2ml container allowing for a legal way to vape with lots of puffs. Some of the most popular vapes that feature this design are the Lost Mary BM6000 and the PIXL 8000.
Both of these designs are used in the UK, however the latter is more popular. The 4-in-1 style only offers around 2,400 puffs, whereas the 2ml + 10ml offer a much easier experience as well as more puffs.
Big puff vapes are designed to be efficient and last as long as possible. With average puffs, a 30,000 puff vape like the Hyola Ultra can easily last a few weeks with moderate vaping, and around a week and a half to 2 weeks for heavy vapers. As each big puff vape contains around 12ml-24ml of e-liquid, they'll last you a lot longer than regular 600 puff vapes.
Yes, big puff vapes are completely reusable and rechargeable. You won't have to worry about refilling the pod or changing the coil, big puff vapes feature a pre-filled pod that can be simply swapped out when empty. All legal, big-puff vapes are rechargeable via a USB-C port located on the device. Some big kits feature a charging port on the Botton, some on the side, and some on the front. Most new big puff vapes can handle fast charging which means your vape will be fully charged in no time. Keep in mind that many big puff vapes don't come packaged with a USB-C cable, so ensure you have one on hand when purchasing a big puff vape.
The most common and popular big puff flavours are fruity flavours like Strawberry Ice and Blueberry Sour Raspberry, and cooling flavours like Classic Menthol or Fresh Mint. Everyone's taste is different, however these are the most popular flavours which are loved by the majority.
Big puff, pre-filled pod kits are not the same as disposables as they can be reused ones the e-liquid runs out. They're better for the environment and are legal in the UK unlike disposable vapes. Pre-filled big puff vapes operate the same way and appear similar to disposable vapes. They work the same way, both include a built-in coils and require little to no maintenance.
Yes, big puff vapes feature pre-filled vape pods. The pods are closed, meaning you cannot remove the coil or open the pod. You don't need to refill the e-liquid onside the pod, you simply swap out the vape pod for a fresh one and you're ready to go. Big puff vapes do require a bit of set up, however once they're set they require no maintenance, only recharging every now and again.
