Hexus Go Pod Kit Overview: A Refillable Starter Kit at £8

Hexus Go Pod Kit is a rechargeable, refillable pod device from Hexus, listed here at £8. It belongs to the entry level of our pod kits: a compact battery body that takes a small pod you fill yourself, instead of a sealed unit that gets binned when the liquid runs out. The listing carries a strength of 0mg, which simply tells you the hardware has no nicotine of its own. Whatever strength and flavour you end up vaping is decided by the e-liquid you pour in, which puts the choice firmly in your hands.

Timing matters for this kind of product. Single-use vapes have been banned for sale across Great Britain since 1 June 2025, and plenty of adults who were used to picking up a disposable at the counter have had to rethink what they buy. A kit like this is reusable by design: the battery recharges, the pod is refilled, and the whole thing lasts for as long as you look after it. That is a different habit from the disposable cycle, with a little more setup at the start and a lot less waste afterwards.

This guide goes through what a buyer is likely to ask before spending £8, and it is deliberately candid about what we can and cannot tell you. Hexus has not given us a verified battery capacity, coil resistance or pod volume for this model, so you will not find invented numbers here. What you will find is the practical detail that applies to any refillable starter kit sold in the UK, plus the facts we can stand behind.

• Price: £8 per kit, in any colour
• Type: refillable starter pod kit with a rechargeable battery
• Colours: Black, Blue Gradient, Pink and Purple Blue
• Nicotine listing: 0mg, meaning the hardware carries no strength and you choose your own liquid
• Pod capacity: limited to 2ml by UK rules on refillable pods and tanks
• Delivery: free standard UK delivery over £20, with same-day dispatch when you order before 4pm
• Age: strictly 18+, with age verification at checkout

Four Colours, Design and Build Quality

The Hexus Go is sold in four finishes, and each has its own listing: Black, Blue Gradient, Pink and Purple Blue. All four sit at the same £8 price, and nothing in our catalogue suggests the internals change from one colour to the next. Colour is a cosmetic decision rather than a performance one, so choose the one you will want to pick up each morning. If you are buying two, one for home and one for work or the car, different colours make it easy to see which is which.

A quick note on naming. Our product family shows five entries, but that is the main listing plus four colours, not five tastes. If you landed here looking for flavour options, the flavour is whatever e-liquid you fill the pod with. That is the central appeal of a refillable system, and also the one thing a first-time buyer has to get used to: the device is a blank canvas, and the liquid does the talking.

On build, an honest read is that £8 buys a practical device rather than a luxury object. Kits in this bracket are normally a moulded shell around a small battery, a pod that seats into the top, and either a button or a draw sensor to fire it. We do not publish dimensions or materials for the Hexus Go because the supplier data does not give them, so judge the finish when the parcel arrives. Gradient and glossy colours tend to show fingerprints, which is a looks issue rather than a fault.

When your kit arrives, spend a minute on these checks:

• The pod should click or press into the seat firmly, with no wobble or rattle
• The metal contacts under the pod should look clean and undamaged
• The charging port should be free of debris and the shell free of cracks or gaps
• The mouthpiece should feel smooth, with no sharp moulding edges
• Check the box for a cable, a leaflet and any spare parts, and keep the leaflet for the indicator light meanings

If anything is wrong out of the box, contact us within 30 days and we will arrange a replacement or refund for a faulty item.

How to Fill, Prime and Start Using the Pod

If you have only ever used sealed pods or disposables, filling is the one new skill, and it takes about a minute once you have done it twice. The most important rule is the legal one: under UK rules, refillable pods and tanks cannot hold more than 2ml, and nicotine e-liquid cannot be sold in bottles larger than 10ml. Whatever the exact volume of the Hexus Go pod, it cannot exceed 2ml. That small reservoir is the reason a refill habit becomes second nature quickly.

• Step 1, prepare. Switch the kit off if it has a lock, wash and dry your hands, and take the pod out of the battery body.
• Step 2, open the fill port. Most pods have a small silicone bung or sliding cover on the side or base. Lift or slide it open without forcing it.
• Step 3, fill carefully. Tip the bottle so the nozzle rests against the inside wall of the pod, and squeeze gently. Avoid pouring onto the central airflow tube, because liquid that lands there floods the coil.
• Step 4, stop below the top. Leave a small air gap under the fill port rather than filling to the brim. Overfilling is the most common cause of leaks and gurgling.
• Step 5, seal and wipe. Press the bung fully home, wipe any drips from the outside of the pod and from the contacts, then seat the pod back in the body.
• Step 6, prime. Leave the kit upright for five to ten minutes so the wick soaks through. This is the step people skip, and skipping it is the usual cause of a burnt first taste.
• Step 7, start gently. Take two or three short, soft draws before your first proper pull, so liquid reaches the coil gradually.

For the first week, keep the pod about half to two-thirds full rather than topping it right up. That gives you a feel for how quickly you use liquid and lowers the odds of a leak while you learn. A single 10ml bottle fills a 2ml pod at most five times, so one bottle gives you a useful run of practice fills before you need another.

Coil, Wicking and Airflow in a Pod Kit

Every refillable pod contains a coil, a small heating element that vaporises the liquid, wrapped or surrounded by a wick that feeds it. In entry kits the coil is usually either mesh, a flat woven screen that heats across a wider area, or a more traditional wire wrapped in cotton, and some systems use ceramic. The Hexus listing does not name the coil material or resistance for the Go, and we are not going to guess. What matters is what that choice means in use, because it explains most of the differences you notice between kits.

Resistance is measured in ohms. Higher resistance, roughly above one ohm, generally suits mouth to lung (MTL) vaping, the tight, cigarette-like draw where you hold vapour in your mouth before inhaling. That style pairs naturally with nicotine salts. Lower resistance coils suit looser, airier inhaling and heavier vapour, and they usually want a higher-powered device than a small pod kit. A kit priced at £8 almost certainly aims at the tighter end of the range, which is where most adults moving from smoking feel at home.

Mesh coils, where fitted, are valued for even heating and quick ramp-up, which shows in steadier flavour across a fill. Cotton-wick designs can taste slightly warmer and softer. Neither is automatically better, and quality of manufacture matters more than the label on the box.

Coil life is where expectations need managing. A pod coil is a consumable. Used steadily, it often lasts somewhere around one to two weeks, though sweet, thick or dessert-style liquids tend to shorten that by caramelising on the heating element. Signs that a coil is finished include a burnt or flat taste even with a fresh fill, a muted flavour, and gurgling that does not clear.

Replacement is worth thinking about before you buy. At the time of writing, the Hexus collection on this site lists only this kit, so there is no separate Hexus pod pack on the shelf. Pods are specific to each system, so another brand's pod will not fit. You can browse our refillable vape pods to see what is available, but if the Go pod wears out, a second £8 kit is the straightforward fallback.

Choosing a Nicotine Strength for the Hexus Go

The 0mg tag on this listing is the starting point for strength guidance. The kit itself contains no nicotine, so the strength you vape is the strength of the e-liquid. UK rules cap nicotine e-liquid at 20mg per ml, which is 2 percent, and bottles at 10ml, so nothing sold legally here goes beyond that. If you vape nicotine at all, this is the number you will be choosing every time you buy a bottle.

Small pod kits pair naturally with nicotine salt e-liquids. Nic salts feel smoother on the throat at a given strength than traditional freebase nicotine, and they deliver nicotine quickly, which is why they dominate the pod market. As a rough guide, many adults who vape lightly start around 5mg to 10mg, regular vapers who previously smoked a moderate amount often settle near 10mg to 12mg, and those who smoked heavily and want a firm hit commonly start at 18mg or 20mg. These are everyday rules of thumb, not medical advice, and we cannot advise on your health.

• Start lower than you think. Nic salts absorb fast, and 20mg in a small coil can feel harsh if you are not used to it.
• Match strength to flavour. Menthol and ice liquids add throat sensation, so many people step the strength down slightly with those.
• Adjust over time. If you find yourself vaping constantly and still unsatisfied, move up one step. If you feel lightheaded or queasy, move down.
• Nicotine-free is an option. A 0mg e-liquid gives you flavour and the hand-to-mouth habit with no nicotine at all.

Some arithmetic worth knowing for safety: a 2ml fill at 20mg per ml holds 40mg of nicotine, and a full 10ml bottle at that strength holds 200mg. Nicotine is addictive and should only ever be used by adults who already use nicotine. Keep bottles, pods and the kit out of reach of children and pets, and never leave liquid in an open container.

Flavour: Choosing What to Fill Your Hexus Go With

Because the Go is refillable, the flavour profile is something you assemble rather than receive. That is a real advantage for anyone who gets bored easily, since a bottle costs very little and you can switch on the next fill. It also means the "flavour" on this page is a matter of coil and wick doing a clean job, rather than a specific recipe. A tidy pod with a fresh coil gives a clear, sharp read of whatever you put in.

Here is how popular liquid styles tend to behave in a compact pod kit:

• Menthol and ice: crisp and cooling, and forgiving of a coil that is getting tired. A forgiving place to start.
• Fruit and berry: bright and juicy, and the most popular choice among UK pod users. Blue raspberry, strawberry and watermelon blends read especially clearly.
• Fruit with ice: the dominant style in nic salt ranges, sweet up front and cooling on the exhale.
• Tobacco and nutty blends: softer and warmer, often chosen by people who want the closest match to what they smoked.
• Dessert and sweet cream: rich but heavy. These sugar-laden recipes coat coils faster, so expect to change pods more often.

Thickness matters in a small pod. Liquids are a mix of vegetable glycerine (VG) and propylene glycol (PG). A balanced blend such as 50/50 flows through a small wick easily, which is why nic salts sold for pods are usually thin. Very high VG shortfills are thicker, can starve a small coil of liquid, and are better saved for larger tank devices. If a liquid is labelled high VG and the dry hits start, that is the likely reason.

The easiest way to explore is a multibuy. Our 5 for £10 e-liquid deal lets you mix and match 10ml nic salts at £2 a bottle, so five different flavours cost the same as one premium bottle elsewhere. Rinsing the pod with warm water and drying it fully before switching flavour avoids ghosting, where the old taste lingers into the new one.

Performance and Puff Delivery in Everyday Use

Many UK shoppers still arrive with a puff count in mind because that was how disposables were sold. A refillable kit does not have a puff rating, and any figure printed on one would be an estimate rather than a measurement. What you have instead is a pod capped at 2ml and a battery that recharges, so longevity depends on how often you vape and how much liquid each draw uses. Sensible expectations are more useful than a headline number.

As a rule of thumb, a light user may find a single 2ml fill lasts a good part of a day, while a heavy daily vaper will refill several times a day. A 10ml bottle fills a 2ml pod at most five times, so the five bottles in a 5 for £10 deal give up to twenty five fills. If you need a rough sense of use, note how long your first fill lasts and plan from there.

The character of the draw is the other half of performance. Kits in this class give a compact, focused hit with concentrated flavour rather than big clouds. If you are expecting the dense, warm vapour of a larger sub-ohm device, this is not that, and it is not meant to be. If you are used to cigarettes or to mouth-to-lung disposables, the draw is the familiar part and the flavour the pleasant surprise.

A few habits keep performance consistent across a fill:

• Pause for twenty to thirty seconds between long strings of puffs, so the wick can re-soak
• Keep the pod above the minimum level, because a near-empty pod runs the wick dry quickly
• Use short, steady draws of two to three seconds rather than long, hard pulls
• Store the kit upright with the mouthpiece pointing up, so liquid does not pool near the airflow
• Swap the pod when taste starts to flatten, not once it turns burnt

Throat hit scales with strength and with the liquid type. At 20mg you will feel a firmer hit, at 10mg a gentler one, and at 0mg none beyond whatever cooling agent the flavour contains. Treat the first couple of days as calibration, and adjust strength and flavour before deciding the device itself is the issue.

Battery Life, Charging and Safe Handling

The Hexus Go is a rechargeable kit, which is the main reason it counts as a long-term device and not a throwaway. We have no verified battery capacity from Hexus for this model, so we will not quote a milliamp-hour figure. What we can say is that a small pod battery paired with a 2ml reservoir is generally sized so the two run down at broadly the same pace, and that real life will vary with how often you vape and at what strength.

Charge with the cable in the box, or any decent USB cable, from a standard phone charger or a computer port. Stick to reputable chargers rather than unbranded ones from a drawer, because poor-quality chargers are the usual source of battery problems in small devices. Charging takes a modest time for a battery this size, and the indicator light normally changes colour or stops flashing when finished. Your leaflet will confirm the exact behaviour of this model.

• Charge on a hard, clear surface, never under a pillow or on a sofa
• Do not leave the kit charging unattended overnight if you can avoid it
• Unplug when the indicator shows full rather than leaving it connected for hours
• Keep it away from direct heat, such as a car dashboard in summer or a radiator
• Do not carry it loose in a pocket with keys or coins, which can short the contacts
• Stop using any kit that has a swollen, hot or damaged body, and do not charge it again

Looking after the battery also means looking after the pod seat. Wipe the contacts occasionally with a dry cotton bud, because liquid residue between pod and body can cause weak firing or an intermittent connection.

When the kit finally reaches the end of its life, do not put it in the general bin or your household recycling. Vapes contain lithium batteries that can start fires in waste vehicles and sorting plants. Take old devices to a UK recycling point that accepts small electricals, such as a household waste recycling centre or a retailer take-back scheme, and drop the pod and any empty bottles in the appropriate bin once rinsed.

Who the Hexus Go Suits, and Who Should Look Elsewhere

A device is only good value if it fits the person using it, so it helps to be direct about who this kit is for. The Hexus Go is a low-cost, low-commitment way to try a refillable pod system. It works well for adults who currently smoke or use nicotine and want a rechargeable alternative, for anyone who used disposables and now wants a reusable option, and for people who like to choose their own flavour and strength.

It is a particularly sensible buy in these situations:

• First refillable kit: at £8 the cost of trying the refill routine is low, with little to lose if it turns out not to suit you
• Backup or travel device: an inexpensive spare to keep in a bag, a desk drawer or the car
• Flavour explorers: anyone who wants to work through different liquids rather than commit to a single one
• Moving from disposables: the draw and size are comparable, and the running cost per fill is lower over time
• Colour-conscious buyers: four finishes make it easy to find one you like

There are also buyers who should think twice, and we would rather say so than make a sale that disappoints:

• Anyone under 18. Vaping products are for adults only, and every order is age-verified.
• People who have never smoked or used nicotine. Nicotine is addictive, and a device like this is not for people who do not already use it. A 0mg liquid is the only sensible route if you simply like the flavour.
• Chasing big clouds. A compact pod kit will not produce the dense vapour of a sub-ohm device. Look through our wider pod kits range for other styles.
• Wanting zero maintenance. If you do not want to fill, prime and clean, a sealed kit from our prefilled pod kits collection is simpler.
• Heavy all-day vaping. The 2ml pod means regular refills, which can feel like a chore if you vape constantly.

How the Hexus Go Compares With Other Starter Pod Kits

Fair comparisons start with what we actually know. In our catalogue, the Hexus Go sits among the refillable starter kits listed at 0mg, and the cheapest alternatives in that same group come from Aspire, a long-established name in refillable pod hardware. The Aspire Gotek Nano Pod Kit is £11.99, the Aspire Gotek Pro 2 Pod Kit is £17.99, and the Aspire BP Stik Pod Kit is £19.99. That makes the Hexus £3.99, £9.99 and £11.99 cheaper respectively.

What does the extra money buy? In general, in this segment, a higher price tends to go towards some combination of larger battery capacity, more adjustable airflow or power, a wider pod range, and a longer track record of replacement parts being easy to find. We do not hold verified specifications for the Hexus Go to compare line by line, so we would rather not pretend to a table of numbers. Check the individual listings, and treat the Aspire kits as the upgrade path if you outgrow the Go.

• Where the Hexus Go wins: price, four finish options, and a very low cost of entry for someone trying refillables for the first time
• Where the pricier kits may win: a deeper range of replacement pods and coils from a long-established brand, and typically more control over the draw
• Where it is a toss-up: day-to-day flavour, since that is driven mainly by the liquid and the condition of the coil

Compared with prefilled pod kits, the trade-off is convenience against cost and choice. Sealed pods need no filling and no priming, but you are locked into the flavours on offer and each pod is a recurring cost. A refillable like the Go costs a little more effort and gives you free choice of liquid. If you value convenience above everything, browse prefilled options; if you value flexibility and a low running cost, a refillable is the better fit.

Against the disposables you may have used before, the comparison is simple. The disposable route is now closed to new buyers in Great Britain, and a reusable kit is the lawful equivalent: you pay once for the hardware, then only for the liquid.

Troubleshooting: Leaks, Dry Hits and a Dead Button

Most problems with a small refillable kit have the same handful of causes, and almost all are fixable in a couple of minutes. Work through the likely culprit before assuming the device is faulty.

• Gurgling or spitting: usually condensation or flooding. Wipe the mouthpiece, hold the kit upside down with the mouthpiece pointing down, and take a few gentle draws without firing to clear it. Overfilling is often the root cause.
• Leaking from the base: check that the fill bung is fully seated and the pod is pressed home. Overfilled pods, loose seals, and changes in air pressure on flights all cause leaks. Store the kit upright and travel with the pod nearly empty.
• Dry or burnt taste: the wick may not be primed, the pod may be nearly empty, the liquid may be too thick, or the coil may be at the end of its life. Refill, wait ten minutes, and take gentle draws. If the burnt taste returns with a fresh fill, replace the pod.
• Weak or flat flavour: often a worn coil, or leftover flavour from the previous liquid. Rinse the pod, dry it fully, and refill with a fresh liquid.
• No vapour or the kit will not fire: check the battery first and charge it for a while, then confirm the pod is seated and the contacts are clean. A blocked airflow slot can also stop a draw-activated kit from sensing your puff.
• Flashing indicator light: this normally signals a low battery or a protection cut-out, but the pattern differs between models, so confirm against the leaflet in your box.
• Cracked pod: stop using it. Cracks cause leaks that reach the electronics and can damage the battery body.

For a persistent fault, do not keep forcing it. Get in touch through contact us with your order number and a short description. Faulty items can be returned within 30 days for a replacement or refund. For hygiene reasons opened e-liquids and pods cannot be returned, so check your pod is the issue before you open a new pack.

Value for Money, Delivery and Buying Tips

On price alone, £8 for a rechargeable, refillable kit is a low entry point, and the running costs after that are modest. A 10ml nic salt bottle in our 5 for £10 deal works out at £2 a bottle, and a bottle fills a 2ml pod at most five times. That puts the cost of the liquid itself at well under £1 per fill. Compare that with buying a fresh prefilled pod each time, or replacing a disposable, and the saving builds quickly for anyone who vapes daily.

The basic starter basket looks like this: one Hexus Go at £8 plus five nic salts at £10 comes to £18, which is £2 short of the free-delivery line. You have three tidy options. Add a second kit in another colour, which takes you to £26. Add a sixth bottle outside the multibuy. Or accept the standard delivery fee on a smaller basket. A second kit is a real money saver if you wanted a spare anyway.

• Free standard delivery: on UK orders over £20, arriving in two to three working days
• Under £20: standard delivery is £2.99
• Next-day delivery: £4.99 if you order before 4pm Monday to Friday
• Dispatch: same day when ordered before 4pm on a working day
• Packaging: discreet and plain
• Age checks: verified at checkout and again on delivery, because everything here is strictly 18+

The full detail sits on our delivery and returns page. In short, faulty items can be returned within 30 days for a replacement or refund, while opened liquids and pods are excluded for hygiene reasons. Every product we sell is genuine stock sourced through authorised UK channels.

A final buying tip: if you are new to refillables, order a lighter-strength nic salt and a menthol or fruit-and-ice flavour alongside the kit. It gives you a forgiving first fill, and you can step the strength up or down from there. Once your kit has done its job, recycle it through a UK electronics drop-off point rather than the household bin.
