Joyetech Vapes

Joyetech at a glance: the brand and what it makes

Joyetech is a Shenzhen-based vaping hardware manufacturer that has been part of the industry since the early years of the modern e-cigarette market. Most UK vapers first meet the name through the eGo family, a long-running line of batteries, tanks and all-in-one kits that helped popularise the slim, pen-style starter format many people still picture when they think of a vape. Since then the catalogue has widened to include box mods, sub-ohm tanks, mouth-to-lung (MTL) tanks, compact refillable pod systems and a large range of replacement coils.

What sets Joyetech apart from many newer names is breadth and staying power. Rather than building the brand around one or two headline products, Joyetech has kept several platforms running side by side: simple low-wattage kits for people moving away from cigarettes, adjustable-wattage and temperature control devices for hobbyists, and tanks that use the standard 510 thread so they can be paired with other manufacturers' batteries. That longevity matters in everyday use, because coils and spares for a Joyetech device tend to stay on shelves for years after the device itself first launched.

This collection groups the Joyetech hardware, kits and spare parts we list. Ranges rotate and some lines are phased out, so the individual product pages are the reliable guide to what is currently available, which colours are in stock and which coil sizes fit. Treat this page as a map. It explains the main families, how they differ and how to choose between them without paying for parts that turn out not to fit.

In broad terms, the Joyetech shelf breaks down into four groups:

• All-in-one starter kits with a built-in battery and tank, designed for simplicity.
• Adjustable devices such as box mods and variable-wattage batteries, aimed at people who like to tune their vape.
• Tanks and atomisers in MTL and sub-ohm styles.
• Coils and spares, including replacement coil heads, glass, seals and drip tips.

Flagship Joyetech lines worth knowing

Joyetech names can be confusing because the same brand sells kits, batteries, tanks and coils with overlapping model names. These are the families UK vapers come across most often. Treat the descriptions as a guide to the format rather than a spec sheet, since details change between versions and not every model is in stock at all times.

• eGo AIO family. An all-in-one, pen-style kit with an integrated battery and a small refillable tank, usually fitted with a BF-series coil around the 1.0 ohm mark for an MTL-style draw. It is built for people who want to fill it and use it, with no menus or wattage settings to learn. The original AIO has a battery in the region of 1,500mAh, and later versions adjust capacity, charging and airflow in small ways.
• Exceed family. Slim, pocketable kits built around EX-series coils, offered in resistances suited to a tight, cigarette-like draw as well as lower resistances for a warmer, airier pull.
• Cubis tanks. A compact refillable tank that shares BF-series coils with the eGo AIO, often paired with an eGo battery or any other 510 battery. It suits people who want to step up from an all-in-one without learning a new coil system.
• eVic and Delta devices. Box-style and mod-style batteries with adjustable wattage and, on some models, temperature control. The eVic line was among the first mainstream devices to offer temperature control, a feature that appeals to people who like fine-tuning.
• ProCore tanks and kits. Larger-format tanks that use ProC-series coil heads, offered in styles for both MTL and direct-lung vaping. They suit people who have outgrown a basic starter kit.
• Compact pod systems. Smaller refillable pod devices, such as the eRoll range, aimed at discreet carry and nicotine salt liquids at lower power.

Because the same name can appear on a kit, a tank and a coil box, read the product title carefully. A listing for a Cubis coil is a consumable part, not a device, while a listing described as a kit includes the battery and tank together. If you are not sure which item you need, contact us before ordering and we can check it against the model you already own.

Flavour, strength and puff considerations

A Joyetech device has no flavour of its own. Taste comes from the e-liquid and from how the coil heats it. Stainless steel SS316 coils, common in the eGo AIO and Cubis systems, give a fairly neutral and clean flavour. Clapton-style and mesh coils have more surface area, which generally means warmer vapour and stronger flavour, but they also use more power and more liquid.

The most important choice is draw style. Mouth-to-lung devices use higher-resistance coils, roughly 1.0 to 1.2 ohm, and a tighter airflow that feels close to drawing on a cigarette. Direct-lung devices use lower-resistance coils, typically 0.6 ohm and below, with open airflow and a much larger cloud. Most of the Joyetech range that suits beginners sits on the MTL side, which is why it pairs well with nicotine salt liquids and standard 50/50 blends.

For nicotine strength, the UK limit on nicotine e-liquid is 20mg/ml. Common choices in a Joyetech device are:

• Nicotine salts, 10mg to 20mg. Smoother at higher strengths, popular in low-power kits and pods. 20mg is the legal maximum.
• Freebase liquid, 3mg to 18mg. Usually a 50/50 blend in MTL tanks. Higher strengths can feel harsher on the throat.
• High-VG liquid, 0mg to 6mg. Used in sub-ohm tanks, where each puff delivers a lot more vapour and a lower strength is normally enough.

As a rough starting point rather than medical advice, people who smoked heavily often begin at the upper end of the range, while lighter smokers start lower and adjust. If you get headaches, dizziness or a harsh throat hit, the strength is probably too high for that style of device.

Puff counts are an estimate at best. A standard 2ml tank holds the same volume of liquid that a 600-puff single-use vape used to contain, so a full tank is a fair comparison point. In real life the number of puffs from one fill depends on the coil, the power setting and how long each draw lasts. A fresh coil also needs priming: let it soak in liquid for five to ten minutes before the first draw, and keep sweet, thick liquids in mind because they tend to shorten coil life.

Which Joyetech suits a new vaper and which suits an experienced one

The sensible way to choose is to start with what you want from the device rather than the model name. Joyetech covers a wider experience range than most single-format brands, so the same page can serve a first-time buyer and a long-time hobbyist.

For new vapers and people switching from cigarettes or single-use devices, simplicity usually matters most. Look at:

• All-in-one kits in the eGo AIO style, where there is no wattage to set and no separate battery to match.
• Slim Exceed-style kits with a 1.0 to 1.2 ohm coil, which give a tighter, more cigarette-like draw.
• Nicotine salt liquid at 10mg to 20mg if you smoked regularly, or lower if you were a light smoker.
• A spare coil pack from day one, so a worn coil does not leave you without a working device.

For experienced vapers, the appeal of Joyetech is usually flexibility:

• Adjustable-wattage eVic or Delta batteries that accept any 510 tank.
• Cubis or ProCore tanks, which give you a choice between restricted and more open airflow.
• Temperature control on supported models, useful if you want consistent vapour and a lower risk of burnt hits.
• The option to mix and match, for example putting a Joyetech tank on another brand's mod if that battery suits you better.

If you currently use a refillable pod kit and are curious about moving to a tank, a Cubis on an adjustable battery is an easy bridge because it uses the same sort of MTL coils and liquids you already know. If you are happy with your current setup and just need parts, the coils and spares section is likely where you should start.

How Joyetech compares with similar brands

Joyetech sits alongside several other long-established hardware names such as SMOK, Vaporesso, Aspire, Innokin, Uwell and Geek Vape. All of them make starter kits, tanks, mods and coils, and in a shop comparison they often look similar on paper. The differences show up in philosophy and in the small details of ownership.

• Proven formats over rapid refreshes. Joyetech tends to keep established designs in the range for a long time, whereas some competitors release new versions at a faster pace. That suits people who value a familiar coil system and predictable spares, and suits people less if they want the newest charging speeds or screen features.
• Simple menus. The all-in-one kits are deliberately basic. Some rivals offer more app-style features or larger screens, which can be useful or unnecessary depending on your taste.
• Coil availability. BF-, EX- and ProC-series coils are widely stocked, and many UK shops carry them. Coils are specific to each manufacturer's tank, so check this before switching brands, as a different brand's coil will not fit a Joyetech tank.
• 510 compatibility. Joyetech tanks use a standard 510 thread, so they work on many other brands' mods. This is a practical advantage if you already own a battery you like.
• Price positioning. Entry-level Joyetech kits are typically in the same broad bracket as similar kits from rival brands, with higher-end adjustable devices costing more. Differences come down more to features and coil prices than to the headline kit price.

Honest summary: there is no single brand that suits everyone. If you want a straightforward kit with well-known spares, Joyetech is a reasonable choice. If you want the very latest feature set, a newer product from another brand may fit better, and if you already own a particular battery, the tank-only options from Joyetech may be the more economical route.

Coils, tanks and compatibility

Most compatibility mistakes happen with coils, not devices. Joyetech uses several coil families, and they are not interchangeable. As a general rule, the coil series is printed on the coil pack and in the product title. Match it to your tank, not to your battery.

• BF-series coils are generally used by the eGo AIO and Cubis systems.
• EX-series coils are generally used by Exceed-style kits and tanks.
• ProC-series coils belong to the ProCore range.

Before you order, check the following:

• Coil code. Look at the code on your current coil or in the manual, and compare it with the code in the listing.
• Resistance. Use the ohm value as a guide to draw style. Do not put a very low-resistance coil on a battery that cannot supply the power it needs.
• Thread and diameter. A tank with a 510 thread will screw onto most batteries, but a tank wider than the battery will overhang. This is a cosmetic issue only, though some people prefer a flush fit.
• Power range. Each coil has a recommended wattage range. Running a coil far above it tends to burn the wick and spoil the flavour.
• All-in-one limits. An integrated battery cannot be swapped, so when the battery wears out the whole device is at the end of its life, even if the tank is fine.

Coil life varies. Heavy use, high power and sweet liquids all shorten it, and many vapers replace a coil every one to three weeks. Signs a coil is finished include a muted or burnt taste, gurgling, leaking or noticeably weaker vapour. Replacing the coil when this happens is cheaper than replacing a tank that has been damaged by a burnt wick.

If you are unsure whether a part fits, send the model name and the coil code from your current setup before ordering. Opened coil packs and used coils generally cannot be returned for hygiene reasons, so checking first saves hassle.

UK legal context for Joyetech buyers

Vaping products sold in the UK must meet the Tobacco and Related Products Regulations, which are the UK's version of the older EU Tobacco Products Directive (TPD). These rules shape what Joyetech devices and liquids you will see on sale here.

• Nicotine cap. Nicotine e-liquid is limited to 20mg/ml, which is why you will not see higher strengths on UK shelves. This applies to every nicotine liquid, including salts.
• Tank size. Refillable tanks are limited to 2ml. Many Joyetech tanks are sold as a UK edition with a 2ml glass or pod. A larger tank sold elsewhere is not legal to sell here as a standard UK product, so look for the 2ml UK edition on the listing.
• Bottle size. Nicotine e-liquid bottles are limited to 10ml, and bottles must be child-resistant and tamper-evident with a health warning and ingredient information.
• Age. You must be 18 or over to buy, and we may ask for age confirmation when you order.
• Single-use vapes. Single-use disposable vapes have been banned from sale in the UK since 1 June 2025. Before the ban, disposables had to follow the same 20mg limit and 2ml size rules, which is where the old 600-puff figure came from. Reusable kits, like the ones in this collection, are the route most UK vapers now take, and they also tend to cost less over time.

Regulations change, and guidance from the government and the MHRA is the place to check current requirements. If you are travelling, remember that rules differ abroad, and that you should not take a lithium battery device in hold luggage. Always keep it in your carry-on bag, switched off or locked, and check airline guidance for your journey.

Spotting genuine Joyetech stock

Because Joyetech is a widely recognised name, counterfeit coils and devices circulate, mostly through online marketplaces and low-price listings. A fake coil is more than an annoyance: it may wick badly, run hot and give off a burnt taste, and a fake battery device raises real safety concerns. A few checks help.

• Buy from a UK retailer that lists its sources. A named UK business with clear contact details, returns terms and a VAT-registered address is a safer starting point than an anonymous marketplace seller.
• Check the packaging. Genuine packs usually have sharp printing, consistent fonts, correct spelling, a batch or lot code and a security label. Many Joyetech boxes carry a scratch-off or QR verification code. The manufacturer's own site is the right place to confirm how to verify a code, as the method can change.
• Look at UK labelling. Look for the UK-specific warning text, the 2ml tank markings and the company address required by the regulations.
• Inspect the coil. A genuine coil head has clean crimping, consistent cotton and the series code stamped or printed clearly. Loose cotton, uneven finish or a vague code are warning signs.
• Be wary of a price that looks too low. A price far below typical retail for the same item usually has a reason behind it.
• Test with care. If a device overheats, charges oddly or smells of burning, stop using it and contact the seller straight away.

If you think you have been sold counterfeit goods, keep the packaging and any batch information, take clear photographs and contact the seller first. You can also report suspected counterfeit products to Trading Standards.

Honest value guidance, warranty and returns

Joyetech hardware is usually sold on the strength of reliability and available spares rather than novelty. The most useful way to think about value is running cost, not just the price on the box.

• Entry-level kits. Typically in the budget to mid-range bracket. They include a battery, tank and often a spare coil, so the buying decision is simple.
• Adjustable devices. Cost noticeably more up front, and the value depends on whether you will use the features. If you only want a simple draw, an all-in-one is the more sensible spend.
• Coils. A pack of replacement coils is a regular expense. Multipacks usually cost less per coil, which makes sense if you are certain of the series you need.
• E-liquid. Over a few months, liquid is often the largest part of the cost. Compared with buying single-use vapes, refillable kits tend to cost less per millilitre.

Warranty. Devices usually carry a manufacturer or retailer warranty against electrical faults, but the length differs between products, so read the individual listing. Consumable parts such as coils, pods, glass, O-rings and drip tips are normally excluded because they wear out or break through normal use. Damage from misuse, water, dropping or using the wrong charger is also typically excluded.

Your statutory rights. Under the Consumer Rights Act 2015, goods must be of satisfactory quality, as described and fit for purpose. If a device is faulty, you generally have a short window of 30 days to reject it for a refund, and you may be entitled to a repair or replacement after that. These rights sit alongside any warranty and do not replace it.

Returns. Because of hygiene concerns, opened e-liquid and used or opened coils generally cannot be returned unless faulty. Keep your order confirmation and packaging for a faulty-goods claim, and photograph any fault before contacting support.

Care, charging and recycling

A Joyetech device will last longer and perform more consistently with a few simple habits. Most problems that people put down to a faulty kit are down to dirt, low liquid or a worn coil.

• Never run the tank dry. Firing a coil with no liquid burns the wick and ruins the flavour permanently. Refill when the level drops to a third.
• Prime every new coil. Soak it for five to ten minutes, take a couple of unpowered draws, then start at a low power.
• Keep the 510 connection clean. Wipe the contacts with a dry cotton bud now and then, since liquid residue causes poor connections and no-fire errors.
• Check seals. Worn O-rings cause leaks. If liquid is gathering at the base, check the seals and that the tank is fully tightened before blaming the coil.
• Rinse and dry. Every few weeks, strip the tank, rinse the metal and glass parts in warm water and let them air dry fully before reassembling.
• Store sensibly. Keep the device upright where possible, out of heat and away from children and pets.

Charging safety. Use the cable that came with the device or a reputable replacement, charge on a hard surface, and do not leave it charging overnight or unattended. Do not carry loose lithium batteries in a pocket with keys or coins. If a battery is damaged, swollen or hot, stop using it.

Recycling. Vape devices contain lithium batteries and electronics, so they should never go in household bins or kerbside recycling, because they can start fires in collection vehicles and waste facilities. Take an old device, a spent battery or an empty pod to a recycling point instead. Many local household waste recycling centres accept small electricals, and many vape shops and some larger retailers offer a free take-back. The Recycle Your Electricals website helps you find a drop-off point close to home. Empty e-liquid bottles can usually go in plastic recycling once rinsed, but check your local council's rules.
