Vuse: A Leading Name in UK Vaping
Vuse, formerly known as Vype, is a flagship electronic cigarette brand from British American Tobacco and one of the most recognised names in the UK vape market. Known for sleek pod systems, science-backed e-liquid development and smooth nicotine salt formulations, Vuse sits at the forefront of smoke-free alternatives—offering adult smokers a modern, user-friendly way to move away from traditional tobacco smoking.
Brand Values & Mission
Vuse is driven by a commitment to quality, safety and responsible vaping. Devices and e-liquids are developed using advanced vapour science, strict testing and clearly labelled nicotine strengths so users know what they are buying. As a global brand with a strong UK presence, Vuse supports age-verification checks, clear safety information and compliant packaging to help keep products away from children while offering adult smokers access to regulated alternatives.
Best Vuse Vape Kits UK
With the phase-out of single-use disposable vapes in 2025, Vuse has shifted focus to long-term, reusable vape kits and sealed pod systems. These compact e-cigarettes deliver the convenience of a disposable in a rechargeable format, using prefilled cartridges, built-in batteries and fast USB charging. Whether you prefer a slim pen-style device or a boxy pod kit with extra battery life, there’s a Vuse option designed for everyday UK use.
Pod Kits & Pods
Vuse currently offers three pod vape kits in the UK: the Vuse ePen 3, Vuse ePod 2, and the upgraded Vuse Pro. The Vuse Pro is now the flagship device, designed as the next evolution of the ePod 2, with improved charging, battery life, and pod compatibility. It works seamlessly with both original ePod cartridges and new Pro Pods. The ePen 3 remains available for now but is being phased out.
Disposable Vapes
As of June 2025, Vuse disposable vapes are no longer available in the UK due to the national ban on single-use vape devices. Previously popular models such as the Vuse GO, GO 700, and Edition 01 are now discontinued. If you're looking for a simple, compliant alternative, check out our latest Vuse Reusable Vape Kits. Vuse pod systems provide the same flavour satisfaction in a reusable format.
Vuse Pro Pod Kit
The Vuse Pro is a compact, draw-activated pod system designed for mouth-to-lung vaping. It’s compatible with both legacy ePod cartridges and the latest Pro pods, letting existing users upgrade hardware without changing their favourite flavours. A built-in battery, USB-C charger and clear LED indicator make it easy to monitor battery level, while the ergonomic, pocket-friendly design is ideal for beginners and regular vapers alike.
Each Pro pod holds up to 1.9 ml of nic salt e-liquid. Depending on puff length and frequency, a full charge and fresh pod can deliver several hundred puffs before either needs replacing or recharging.
Vuse Reload 1000 (Pen & Box Kit)
The Vuse Go Reload 1000 series is designed for ex-disposable users who want the same straightforward experience in a more sustainable format. Instead of discarding the entire device, you keep the rechargeable battery section and replace only the prefilled pods.
- Reload Pen Kit: a classic tube-shaped e-cigarette that feels familiar in the hand, with up to 1000 puffs per pod under lab conditions.
- Reload Box Kit: a compact, square-bodied pod vape with tactile grip, bigger battery capacity and the same sealed prefilled pods.
Both Reload devices use ceramic or optimised coil technology for consistent flavour and vapour production, backed by Vuse’s quality-control standards and UK-legal 2 ml pod capacity.
Vuse Ultra Smart Device Vape Kit
The Vuse Ultra Smart Device is the latest evolution in the Vuse range. It features a premium metal body, re-engineered airflow and an upgraded battery designed to support a full day of typical use for many vapers. Ultra is compatible with the MYVUSE app via Bluetooth, letting you check battery level, track puff count and access advanced features designed to tailor your vaping experience.
Ultra works with its own Ultra Smart pods as well as standard Vuse Pro and legacy ePod cartridges, giving you flexibility over flavours and nicotine strengths. If you’re already using Pro pods, you can keep your preferred flavours and simply upgrade the device to unlock additional smart features and improved battery life.
Vuse Pro & ePod Flavour Pods
Vuse pods are prefilled cartridges using smooth nicotine salt e-liquid. Available in popular 10 mg and 18 mg strengths (with some variants offering other options), these pods provide rapid nicotine delivery with a softer throat hit than many traditional e-liquids—ideal for adults switching from cigarettes.
Flavours cover tobacco, menthol, fruit and dessert profiles. Fan favourites include Creamy Tobacco, Chilled Mint, Strawberry Ice, Very Berry and Tropical Mango, plus a range of rich berry and citrus blends. Many pods feature clear sections or embossed markings so consumers can easily see remaining e-liquid and confirm they’re using the right cartridge for their device.
Vuse Ultra Pods & Post-Ban Vaping
UK law now prevents the sale of disposable vapes, including earlier Vuse GO ranges, but reusable pod systems and sealed cartridges remain legal as long as they follow TPD rules. Ultra Smart pods and the wider Vuse pod family are all capped at a maximum 2 ml capacity per cartridge, with clearly labelled nicotine content and safety warnings on every pack.
For many ex-disposable users, Vuse Ultra, Pro and Reload 1000 provide a familiar combination of flavour and convenience with less packaging waste and a rechargeable battery that can be used again and again.

Vuse products are priced to suit both budget-conscious users and those seeking a premium device. Entry-level hardware such as the Vuse Pro kit typically starts around £9.99, while pod refill packs generally fall in the £5.99–£6.99 range.

Health, Safety & Legal Information
Vuse vapes are designed for adult smokers and vapers aged 18+ who want a smoke-free alternative to cigarettes. They contain nicotine, which is an addictive substance. Vuse devices and pods are not licensed medicines or Nicotine Replacement Therapy and are not sold as a stop-smoking treatment.
If you are pregnant, breastfeeding, have heart disease, high blood pressure, diabetes, epilepsy or another medical condition that could be affected by nicotine, you should seek advice from a healthcare professional before using any vape or nicotine product. If you experience unwanted side-effects, stop using the product and contact a doctor or pharmacist for further guidance.
Keep all devices, pods, chargers and e-liquids out of reach of children and pets. Avoid contact of e-liquid with skin or eyes; if this happens, wash the affected area with soap and water, or rinse eyes cautiously with clean water and seek medical advice if irritation persists. If e-liquid is swallowed or you feel unwell, contact a healthcare professional or local poison centre immediately.
Vuse pod kits use rechargeable lithium-ion batteries. Always use the supplied USB cable or an appropriate charger, and follow the instructions for safe charging. Do not leave devices on charge unattended, do not charge near water or extreme heat, and never use a device that appears damaged, swollen or is overheating.
Vuse sits alongside other smoke-free alternatives—such as heated tobacco devices and tobacco-free nicotine pouches—but each option carries its own risks. If you’re unsure which alternative may be best for you, speak with a healthcare professional or stop-smoking advisor for personalised advice.

Frequently Asked Questions — Vuse Vape Kits & Pods
How many Vuse vapes are there in the UK?
In the UK there are now several main reusable Vuse vape kits: the Vuse Pro, Vuse Ultra Smart Device and the Vuse Go Reload 1000 range (pen and box-style kits). Legacy devices such as the Vuse ePod 2 and Vuse ePen 3 are still used by some customers but are being phased out in favour of the newer Pro and Ultra systems.
What is the difference between Vuse Pro, Ultra and Reload 1000?
Vuse Pro is a compact, draw-activated pod kit designed for everyday mouth-to-lung vaping with standard Pro and legacy ePod cartridges. Vuse Ultra Smart Device is a premium metal pod kit with longer battery life, Bluetooth app connectivity and support for Ultra Smart pods as well as Pro/ePod cartridges. Vuse Go Reload 1000 (pen and box) bridges the gap between disposables and pod kits, using high-puff prefilled pods on a rechargeable battery so you only replace the cartridge, not the whole device.
Which pods and cartridges work with my Vuse device?
Vuse Pro device works with Vuse Pro pods and legacy ePod pods. Vuse Ultra Smart Device works with Ultra Smart pods plus standard Vuse Pro and ePod pods. Vuse Go Reload 1000 kits use their own Reload 1000 prefilled pods. Vuse ePen 3 uses dedicated ePen pods only. Always check the product page and packaging to confirm compatibility before you buy.
How long does a Vuse battery last and when should I charge it?
Battery life depends on which Vuse device you use and how often you vape. Many users find a full charge on a Vuse Pro or Ultra lasts most of a day under normal use. If the LED starts flashing, flavour feels weak or the device stops producing vapour, it’s time to recharge using the supplied USB cable.
How do I charge a Vuse vape safely?
Use the official USB cable or a compatible USB charger and plug it into a suitable mains adaptor, computer or wall socket. Place the device on a dry, flat surface away from direct sunlight and heat. Do not leave the device on charge unattended, do not charge overnight, and never use a charger or cable that looks damaged. Vuse devices use rechargeable lithium-ion batteries, so safe charging and correct storage are important.
How do I replace a Vuse pod cartridge?
Remove the used pod from your device by pulling it gently out of the slot, then take a fresh pod from its sealed blister pack. Insert it into the device until it clicks into place. There is no need to refill, prime or change coils—once the pod is empty, simply replace it with a new one.
Are Vuse vapes legal in the UK after the disposable ban?
Yes. Vuse pod kits and prefilled cartridges sold at myCigara are fully compliant with UK TPD regulations. Each pod is limited to a maximum of 2 ml e-liquid, carries clear nicotine and safety information, and is sold only to adults aged 18+. Earlier single-use disposable vapes such as Vuse GO are no longer sold in the UK following the ban on disposable vape products.
Are Vuse products suitable for beginners and ex-smokers?
Vuse devices are designed to be user-friendly, with buttonless operation, smooth nic-salt e-liquid and sealed pods that keep things clean. They are popular with adult smokers who want a simple, familiar alternative to cigarettes. However, Vuse products are not licensed medicines or Nicotine Replacement Therapy, and they are not sold as a stop-smoking treatment. If you need medical advice on quitting, speak with a healthcare professional or local stop-smoking service.
Are Vuse vapes safer than smoking cigarettes?
Vaping is widely considered to be less harmful than smoking because it does not involve burning tobacco, but Vuse products still contain nicotine, which is addictive, and are not risk-free. They are intended only for adult smokers and vapers. If you have a medical condition, are pregnant, breastfeeding or unsure whether vaping is suitable for you, seek advice from a healthcare professional before using any vape product.
Who should not use Vuse vapes?
Vuse products are not suitable for anyone under 18, non-smokers, people who are pregnant or breastfeeding, or those with certain medical conditions that could be affected by nicotine, such as serious heart disease. If e-liquid comes into contact with skin or eyes, wash the area with plenty of water; if it is swallowed or you feel unwell, seek medical advice immediately.
How much do Vuse pods and kits cost?
Vuse pod kits such as the Vuse Pro typically start from around £9.99, with prefilled pod packs usually priced between £5.99 and £6.99 for two cartridges. Reload 1000 and Ultra Smart devices may sit slightly higher but offer extended battery performance and higher puff counts. At myCigara you’ll often find multi-buy offers, bundle deals and Free UK Delivery on qualifying orders.
