Does the job perfectly
Battery lasts me a full day easily. Charging is quick. Overall very pleased with the purchase.
IVGThe IVG Smart Max 10K Prefilled Pod Kit Pack of 10 Cherry Peach Lemonade by IVG in Cherry Peach Lemonade at 0mg. Free UK delivery over £20, same-day dispatch on weekday orders before 4pm.
The IVG Smart Max 10K Prefilled Pod Kit is a compact, rechargeable pod vape from IVG, a UK brand with a long track record in e-liquids and hardware. This listing is for a pack of ten kits, which suits several kinds of buyer: heavy daily vapers who would rather order once than reorder every few weeks, households or friends who share a flavour, and small retailers or vape lounges that need dependable counter stock without ordering one unit at a time. Each kit is a self-contained unit with a battery section and a prefilled pod, so there is nothing to fill, no coils to buy and no settings to learn before the first puff.
The range covers 25 flavours, and the product name carries a 10K headline, meaning a nominal figure of up to 10,000 puffs. We will be straightforward about that number later in this guide, because puff counts on vape packaging are manufacturer estimates rather than guarantees, and UK pod size limits affect how you should read them. What you can rely on is the format: draw-activated operation, a mesh coil, a nicotine salt e-liquid and a rechargeable battery built to be used across more than one charge.
The sections below cover performance, flavour, build quality, battery and charging, coil technology, nicotine strength, who the kit suits, how to use it, troubleshooting, value for money and fair comparisons with other products. Specifications for vape hardware can shift slightly between batches, so treat the figures here as guidance based on this category of device and use the values printed on your box as the final reference.
Quick facts at a glance:
This product contains nicotine, which is a highly addictive substance. It is intended for adult smokers and existing vapers only and must not be sold to or used by anyone under 18.
A pack of ten changes how you should think about this purchase. You are not choosing a single trial device, you are committing to ten sealed kits, usually in the flavour you select on the product page. Check the flavour option and the product title before you order, because multipack listings can be single-flavour or mixed depending on the variant. If you are unsure whether you will enjoy a flavour for weeks at a time, consider buying one kit first and coming back for the pack once you know.
Practical points for personal buyers:
Practical points for retailers and vape lounges:
Buying in tens also makes it easier to keep a spare. A vape that fails when you are away from home or out of stock of your usual brand is a frequent reason people return to cigarettes, so having a sealed spare in a drawer is a sensible habit for adult smokers who are switching.
The 10K in the name is a nominal puff count, the figure the manufacturer uses to place this kit in the high-capacity tier. It is worth understanding what that number can and cannot tell you. Puff counts are calculated under controlled conditions with a set puff length and rhythm, and they vary widely in real use. In the UK, a nicotine pod or tank is limited to 2ml of e-liquid, and 2ml of nicotine salt liquid in a mesh pod typically gives somewhere between 500 and 800 puffs depending on draw length and power. That means a single 2ml pod cannot realistically deliver 10,000 puffs on its own, so read 10K as a category label rather than a per-pod promise, and use the pack insert to see exactly what pods and battery capacity are supplied with each kit.
Where the numbers do matter is in how consistently the kit performs through its life. A mesh coil heats a wide area of cotton quickly, so the first puff after a pause is close in strength to the fiftieth, and flavour holds steady until the pod runs low. As the liquid nears empty you may notice thinner vapour, a slightly toasted note, or a gurgle as the wick struggles to keep up. That is your cue to replace the pod or kit rather than keep pulling.
What to expect in the hand:
Several things change how long a kit lasts. Longer pulls use more liquid, chain vaping heats the coil faster than the wick can resupply it, cold weather thickens the e-liquid, and very sweet flavours can build residue on the coil. Pacing yourself with pulls of two to three seconds and a pause of 20 to 30 seconds between them gives you steady flavour and a longer pod life. If you are curious about your own numbers, note the date you start a new kit and the date it fades, and you will have a personal figure that means more than any printed headline.
The range covers 25 flavours. The exact line-up shifts between releases, so the variant options on the product page are the reference for what is in stock today. The profiles below describe the kind of flavours that appear in ranges like this and how they tend to taste, so you can choose with a clearer idea of what is in the pod.
If you are coming from cigarettes, many people find menthol or a lightly sweet fruit easier to stay with than a tobacco-style flavour, because fruit and mint flavours feel distinct enough from smoking that the pull back to cigarettes weakens. Cooling flavours suit warm weather and longer sessions, while sweeter dessert profiles tend to work better in the evening or after a meal.
Sweetness is a trade-off. Sweeteners improve how a flavour tastes but can leave residue on a mesh coil, which is one reason sweet flavours sometimes taste muted late in a pod's life. Ice and menthol flavours use cooling agents that give a crisp finish but can feel harsh if you are sensitive to them, particularly in cold weather or first thing in the morning. If you find the chill distracting, look for a flavour listed without the word ice.
A pack of ten of the same flavour carries one risk: palate fatigue. After a few weeks on a single flavour many vapers find it tastes duller, not because the liquid has changed but because the tongue has adapted. If you suspect that will happen to you, order two different flavours in alternating packs, or buy a single kit of each candidate before committing to a full pack of one. Keep in mind too that flavour descriptions are subjective. A mango that tastes ripe to one person can taste candied to another, so reviews and a trial kit are better guides than the name on the box.
The kit follows the compact, pocketable layout used across the prefilled pod category: a slim body that houses the battery, a pod that seats into the top, and a mouthpiece moulded into the pod. The shell is typically a hard plastic or coated finish that resists scuffs from keys and coins, with rounded edges that feel comfortable in the hand and sit flat in a jacket or trouser pocket.
Quality in this type of product shows in the details. These are the points we suggest checking when your pack arrives:
On durability, a plastic pod kit is not built for drops onto hard floors or for being crushed in a bag beneath heavy items. Treat it like a phone: it will cope with everyday pocket life but not abuse. Leak resistance depends partly on how you carry it, so keep the kit upright where you can and avoid sudden pressure changes such as take-off on a flight, where trapped air can push liquid towards the airflow channel.
If you notice a small amount of residue around the base of the pod, wipe it away with a dry cloth rather than a damp one so that moisture does not reach the electrical contacts. A kit that leaks heavily from new, or that has a cracked shell or loose pod, should not be used. Contact us with photos and your order number and we will deal with it under our returns process.
Rechargeable pod kits in this category are powered by a built-in lithium-polymer or lithium-ion cell, commonly in the range of 500 to 800mAh, and charged via USB-C. Check the capacity printed on your box, because that is the reference figure for your unit. As a rough illustration, a 600mAh cell at 3.7V stores about 2.2 watt-hours. At a typical 8 to 10 watts and a 2.5 to 3 second puff, each puff uses roughly 20 to 30 joules, so a full charge delivers somewhere in the region of 250 to 400 puffs once losses are counted. That fits the experience of most pod users, who expect to recharge more than once while working through a single pod.
Charging habits that protect both the battery and your home:
Lithium cells wear gradually. After a few hundred charge cycles the capacity falls, which shows up as shorter use between charges. The practical life of the whole unit depends on how well the battery ages and whether the shell and pod seating stay in good condition. If you vape heavily, expect to notice the effect earlier than a light user would.
When a kit reaches the end of its life, do not put it in household rubbish or recycling bins. Lithium batteries cause fires in refuse lorries and at sorting plants, and the UK fire service has repeatedly warned about vape batteries in general waste. Retailers that sell electrical goods have take-back responsibilities, and your local council recycling centre will also accept used vapes. You can find a nearby drop-off point through the Recycle Your Electricals website or look for in-store vape recycling bins at participating shops and supermarkets. If a unit is swollen or damaged, keep it away from heat and ask the drop-off point how to hand it in safely.
The heart of the kit is the prefilled pod, which combines a sealed e-liquid reservoir with a coil assembly. In this class of product the coil is a mesh design: a thin sheet of metal, folded or rolled into a cylinder, with a pattern of tiny openings. Compared with a traditional round-wire coil wound around a cotton wick, mesh has a much larger surface area in contact with the cotton, so it heats faster and more evenly. The practical results are a quicker response, steadier flavour and fewer hot spots that scorch the wick.
Typical characteristics of the pod and coil system:
Because the pod is sealed, priming matters. After you insert a new pod, wait around five to ten minutes before the first puff so the cotton can absorb liquid from the reservoir. Puffing on an unprimed coil can burn the dry cotton, leaving a scorched taste that does not fully go away. If you ever get a burnt flavour, stop, let the pod rest upright for a few minutes and take a gentle puff; if the taste remains, replace the pod.
Do not try to refill or open a prefilled pod. The seals are not made for repeated opening, the wick can be damaged, and adding liquid of unknown strength could take the contents over the UK nicotine limit and change how the device behaves. If you like the idea of filling your own, look at a refillable pod system instead, which we discuss in the comparison section below.
Mesh coils are also more forgiving of the thicker, sweeter liquids used in dessert and candy flavours, because the larger wicking area keeps pace with demand. The downside is that no mesh coil lasts forever. Sweeteners caramelise on the surface over time, and once that happens flavour fades even if there is liquid left in the pod. That is part of the reason pod life is better judged by flavour than by a puff counter.
In the UK, nicotine-containing vape liquids are capped at 20mg/ml, which is 2% by volume. The same cap applied to the single-use vapes sold before the ban on disposables that came into force in June 2025, alongside a 2ml limit on pod and tank size. Prefilled pod kits are sold within the same nicotine cap, so you will not find a legal UK product above 20mg/ml. Many ranges also offer 10mg/ml or lower for people who prefer a milder hit, and some include nicotine-free options, so look at the nicotine option on the product page before ordering and again on the box when it arrives.
Choosing a strength depends on your smoking or vaping history rather than on the puff count:
Signs that your strength is too high include dizziness, nausea, headaches, a racing heart and lightheadedness after a few puffs. If you notice them, stop, sit down, drink some water and choose a lower strength next time. Signs that it is too low include chain vaping, constant cravings and still reaching for cigarettes. Because nicotine salts are absorbed quickly, you may need fewer puffs than you expect, so start with slow, spaced puffs rather than a long session.
One detail that catches people out is the difference between how a strength feels and how much nicotine you take in. Salt-based liquids feel gentler at 20mg/ml, which can lead new users to puff more often than they would on a harsher liquid. The nicotine delivered is still at the higher level, so the smooth feel is not a reason to vape continuously.
Nicotine is addictive. These products are intended for adult smokers who want an alternative to cigarettes, not for non-smokers or anyone under 18. If you are pregnant, have a heart condition or take medication that may interact with nicotine, speak to a pharmacist or GP first. Local NHS stop smoking services offer free support if you want to give up nicotine altogether. Buying ten kits is a larger commitment than most trial purchases, so if you are unsure of your strength, start with a single kit at a lower strength before ordering the pack.
This kit is built for convenience, and it suits some people far better than others. Being clear about that saves you money and avoids disappointment.
Who it suits
Who should skip it
If you are not sure which side of the line you fall on, ask yourself three questions. Do you currently smoke or vape nicotine daily? Do you want a device you never have to fill or adjust? Are you happy with fixed settings in exchange for simplicity? If the answer to all three is yes, the kit is a reasonable fit. If you answered no to any of them, a refillable system or a smaller trial purchase will probably serve you better.
Using the kit is straightforward, and setting it up takes around ten minutes the first time, most of which is waiting for the coil to prime.
If your model includes a lock or safety function, the leaflet explains how to engage it. This is useful in bags and pockets, where the draw sensor could be triggered by accident and drain the battery.
Where you vape matters as well as how. Many train stations, workplaces, shops and public transport services in the UK prohibit vaping, so follow posted signs and ask if you are unsure. Do not vape in a car with children, and keep kits, pods and spare packs out of reach of children and pets. Nicotine e-liquid is harmful if swallowed or if it gets onto skin or into eyes, and the pods should never be opened.
For storage between uses, keep the kit upright in a dry pocket or on a shelf at normal room temperature. Wipe the mouthpiece with a dry cloth now and then, and keep the charging port free of lint. Clean contacts help the pod and battery stay connected, which reduces misfires and weak flavour.
Most problems with prefilled pod kits are simple to sort out. Work through the likely cause before assuming the kit is faulty.
If a kit is faulty out of the box, keep the packaging, take a photo of the problem and contact us with your order number. Please do not try to open the kit or the pod, as this can damage the battery and creates a safety risk. Used and spent kits should be taken to a recycling point rather than put in a household bin.
Value in vaping is about cost per day of use, not just the headline price of the pack. To work it out, divide the price of the ten-kit pack by the number of days you expect each kit to last, based on your own habits. Then compare that with what you currently spend on cigarettes, disposables or pods. Most adult smokers who switch fully find vaping costs less than smoking, but that depends on how heavily they use the device and on which products they pick.
Where the pack of ten tends to make sense:
Where it may not:
How it compares with other options, fairly:
Taken together, the pack of ten is good value for adult smokers and regular vapers who know they like the flavour, vape daily and prefer a no-fuss device. It is less compelling for light users, tinkerers and anyone who is still choosing a flavour. Buy a single kit if you are not sure, then come back to the pack once you are.

IVG (I Vape Great) is a UK-born brand that built its name on thick, true-to-fruit e-liquid flavours and expanded into prefilled pod kits like the IVG Pro 12. Known for consistent coil quality and flavour accuracy — a go-to name if you want the shortfill taste experience inside a modern pod device.
The UK cap is 20mg/ml, and that strength suits people who smoke ten or more cigarettes a day. Lighter smokers or people who find 20mg too strong should look at 10mg/ml or lower if the range offers it. If you are unsure, buy a single kit first rather than committing to a pack of ten.
Charge it through the USB-C port with the supplied cable and a standard 5V USB charger. A depleted cell usually takes around 30 to 60 minutes, and you should unplug it once the indicator shows full. Charge on a hard surface and never leave it unattended overnight.
The range has 25 flavours, and you choose your flavour from the options on the product page. Availability changes between releases, so the variants shown are the ones in stock. A pack contains kits of the option you select, so order different packs if you want variety.
The 10K figure is a nominal manufacturer estimate, and UK pods are limited to 2ml, which typically gives hundreds of puffs per pod rather than thousands. Real life depends on puff length, how often you vape and the flavour. Track the date you start and finish one kit to get your own figure.
It usually costs less per kit than buying singles, and you pay delivery once. It makes most sense for daily vapers and trade buyers who already know they like the flavour. A refillable pod system is cheaper per millilitre over time, but it takes more effort to use.
It suits adult smokers and existing vapers who want a simple, no-fill device. It is not for anyone under 18, non-smokers, or people who want to adjust power and airflow. If you are pregnant or have a heart condition, speak to a pharmacist or GP before using nicotine.
We deliver to UK addresses, and you must be 18 or over to order. We may ask for age verification at checkout or on delivery. Check our delivery page for the current rates, cut-off times and any area restrictions.
If a kit is faulty or damaged on arrival, contact us promptly with your order number and photos, and we will arrange a replacement or refund under our returns policy. For hygiene and safety reasons, opened vape products that are not faulty cannot normally be returned. See our returns page for the exact time limits.
Never put a used kit in household rubbish or recycling bins, because the lithium battery can start fires. Take it to a retailer take-back point, a council household recycling centre or an in-store vape recycling bin, which you can find through Recycle Your Electricals. If the unit is swollen or damaged, keep it away from heat and ask the drop-off point how to hand it in.
No. The pods are sealed at the factory and are not designed to be opened or refilled, and doing so can damage the wick, cause leaks and put the nicotine strength outside UK limits. If you want to fill your own, choose a refillable pod system instead.
