Really satisfied
Honestly, I was unsure at first but this has been great. Flavour is strong and lasts the full session. No complaints at all.
EluxThe Menthol Elux Cyberover 6K Prefilled Pods by Elux in Menthol at 10mg and 20mg. Free UK delivery over £20, same-day dispatch on weekday orders before 4pm.
The Elux Cyberover 6K Prefilled Pods in Menthol are replacement pods for the Elux Cyberover rechargeable pod device. Instead of throwing away a complete vape once the liquid runs out, you keep the battery unit and click in a fresh, factory-filled pod. There is nothing to pour, no bottles to carry and no coil to prime from scratch, which is why prefilled pod refills have become the usual route for people who want disposable-style convenience without the waste.
This listing is for the Menthol pod only. It is a single-flavour product: a straight, cooling menthol without a fruit or dessert layer on top. If you prefer sweeter or fruitier profiles, those are separate listings in the same pod format, and the Cyberover device accepts them in exactly the same way.
The timing matters for UK buyers. Since 1 June 2025 it has been illegal to sell or supply single-use disposable vapes in the UK, so the market has moved towards rechargeable devices with replaceable pods. A pod system like the Cyberover fits that rule because the device is reusable and only the pod is consumed. The nicotine cap that applied to disposables still applies to pods: a maximum of 20mg/ml (2%) nicotine strength, with a maximum of 2ml of e-liquid in a single pod.
Here is the short version of what this product is:
You must be 18 or over to buy and use this product. Nicotine is addictive, and vaping is not risk-free. It is intended for adults who currently smoke or vape, not for non-smokers or anyone under 18. The sections below go through how the pod performs, how it tastes, how it is built, what to expect from battery and coil, which strength to pick, and how it stacks up on price against the other ways of buying nicotine.
The 6K in the name is the manufacturer's puff estimate: roughly six thousand puffs per pod, measured by a machine under controlled conditions. Puff counts across the whole vaping category are estimates, because the real number depends on how long you draw, how often you draw, how hard you pull and how well the liquid wicks to the coil. Short, light draws will land closer to the headline number than long, hard pulls.
It is worth being straight about one point. UK rules limit a pod to 2ml of e-liquid, and 2ml is a small reservoir. That means the 6K figure should be read as a ceiling reached under ideal lab conditions, not as a promise of six thousand real-world puffs. We would rather you plan around a realistic expectation than feel short-changed on day four. Treat the pack's stated volume and nicotine strength as the facts, and the 6K label as the manufacturer's marketing shorthand for the pod's capacity class.
In practical terms, most people judge a pod by days rather than puffs. As a rough guide based on how pods of this size behave, and not a lab figure:
Pod systems like this are normally draw-activated, so you inhale and the coil fires without any button press. Check the instructions that came with your Cyberover device for any extra modes or indicators it may have. Draw resistance on pod systems of this type is generally in the tight, mouth-to-lung range, closer to a cigarette than to the open airflow of a sub-ohm tank. That suits nicotine-salt strengths and means you do not need a large cloud to get a satisfying hit.
Vapour production is moderate. You will see a clear, visible exhale, but this is not a cloud-chasing product. Throat hit is noticeable at 20mg/ml, though nicotine salts make it smoother than the same strength in a traditional freebase liquid. Consistency across the life of the pod is generally steady: flavour and vapour should stay broadly the same until the final stretch, when the liquid level drops and the coil is working with less supply. When you notice warm, thin or slightly harsh puffs, that is the signal to swap in a fresh pod rather than keep pushing through the last drops.
Menthol is a flavour that people either want in its plainest form or avoid entirely, so it helps to describe it properly. The Elux Cyberover Menthol pod delivers a cold, crisp mint-leaning cooling sensation on the inhale that lingers briefly at the back of the throat and on the tongue. It is a menthol profile rather than a sweet spearmint or a chewing-gum mint. There is no obvious fruit, vanilla or sugar note competing with the cooling effect, so the first impression is cold air and a faint herbal edge.
On the exhale the cooling fades quickly and leaves a clean aftertaste rather than a coating. People who come from menthol cigarettes usually find the profile familiar, because the cooling sits on the inhale and the throat rather than being tied to a sweet flavour. If you are used to heavily sweetened ice flavours, menthol will taste drier and more austere by comparison.
A few practical notes on how the flavour behaves:
Elux makes a wide spread of flavour families across its pods and devices, and availability changes from batch to batch. The families you are most likely to see around this range include:
Check the relevant product listings for what is actually in stock today. If menthol is your daily flavour, it is easy to keep a second flavour in the drawer for variety, since pods swap in and out of the same device in seconds. Just give the device a minute between flavours, and avoid mixing flavours mid-pod: a pod is sealed, so you swap the whole thing rather than topping up.
A prefilled pod is a small, simple object, and most of its quality shows up in three places: the pod body, the mouthpiece and the contact points with the device. The Cyberover pod is a sealed plastic cartridge with an integrated mouthpiece, a liquid reservoir, an air channel and the coil assembly at the base. The walls are rigid enough to resist cracking in a bag, and the mouthpiece is moulded as part of the pod rather than pushed on, which keeps the number of potential leak points down.
When you hold one next to the device, you should notice a few things about the fit:
Pods are designed to be single-use cartridges for the life of the e-liquid, and you should not try to refill or modify them. The seal is there for leak resistance and safety, and opening it can affect both the coil and your own safety. If you want a refillable setup, a separate refillable pod device and nicotine-salt bottles are the better route.
Build quality in this category comes down to tolerances: do the pod and device fit tightly, is the seal intact, is the plastic free from flashing or rough edges. These are things you can check in the first thirty seconds of unboxing. Our general advice is to inspect each pod when it arrives. If the seal looks damaged, if there is liquid pooling inside the packaging, or if the pod looks visibly cracked, do not use it. Contact us with photos so we can sort a replacement.
For storage, keep pods upright and at room temperature, out of direct sunlight and away from heat sources such as radiators and car dashboards. Heat thins the liquid, raises internal pressure and is a common cause of leaks. In a bag or pocket, keep pods away from loose keys and coins that can scratch the contacts or short something in the wrong place.
One thing worth clearing up first: the pod has no battery. The battery lives in the Cyberover device, and the prefilled pod simply clips on and draws power from it. That is the main reason this format is lower-waste than a disposable: the lithium cell is reused across many pods instead of being thrown away with the first one.
We do not quote a specific milliamp-hour figure for the Cyberover battery here because the exact capacity depends on the device version you own, and printing a number we cannot verify for your unit would not help you. Compact pod devices in this class normally use a built-in lithium-polymer cell somewhere in the region of 500 to 900mAh, charged through a USB-C port. Check your device's box or manual for its exact rating.
As a working guide, a full charge of a battery in that range typically gets a moderate user through roughly a day to a couple of days. The battery is usually not the limiting factor; for many users the pod runs out of liquid at around the same time the battery needs a charge, which makes it easy to adopt a simple routine: fit a fresh pod, give the device a top-up charge, and carry on.
Some sensible charging habits:
Cold also affects battery performance: if a device has been in a cold car or outdoors in winter, it may feel weak or drop out faster. Let it come back to room temperature before charging or heavy use.
When the device itself reaches the end of its life, or if you stop vaping and have unused pods, do not put them in household bins. Lithium batteries and electronics cause fires in refuse lorries and recycling plants. In the UK, shops that sell vaping products are required to take back waste vapes and batteries, and many local council recycling centres have dedicated drop-off points for small electricals. Use those, and keep used pods and the device out of general waste and kerbside recycling.
The heating element in a modern pod is the single biggest influence on flavour and vapour, and this is where mesh designs earn their place. Rather than a round wire wrapped around a cotton wick, a mesh coil uses a flat, perforated metal sheet lying against the cotton. The mesh has a far larger heated surface area, which means the liquid is warmed more evenly and more of it reaches vaporising temperature at once.
The practical benefits of a mesh coil in a pod like this one are:
Resistance in pod systems of this style typically sits around the 0.7 to 1.2 ohm range. That is a mouth-to-lung setup, designed to be drawn gently like a cigarette. This suits 20mg/ml nicotine salt, since a nicotine salt delivers its hit at lower wattage and lower vapour volume than a freebase liquid would need.
Mesh coils are not without downsides, and it is fair to name them:
The coil is built into the pod, so there is no separate maintenance. When the pod is finished, the coil goes with it. That is a feature if you value simplicity and a drawback if you like tinkering. It is also why each new pod resets flavour quality to its starting point instead of drifting as a single coil ages.
The UK sets a legal ceiling of 20mg/ml (2%) nicotine for e-liquids, and this applied to disposables before the ban and applies to prefilled pods today. At that top strength, pods use nicotine salts rather than freebase nicotine. Nicotine salts are a different form of nicotine that is absorbed more quickly and feels smoother on the throat, which is why a 20mg/ml salt is workable in a way that 20mg/ml freebase would be harsh.
Picking the right strength is mostly about matching what you smoke or vape now:
Not every strength will be offered for every flavour, so check the listing's options. If this Menthol pod is only offered at the maximum 20mg/ml, make sure that is right for you before you buy.
The effects of being on the wrong strength are easy to spot. Too high: dizziness, nausea, a racing heart, a heavy head, or a harsh throat hit that makes you cough. If you notice these, stop, drink some water and consider a lower strength next time. Too low: you vape more than you want to, you still crave cigarettes, or you are chain-vaping to chase a hit. In that case, a higher strength is often better than simply using more of a low one.
Menthol adds a wrinkle. Cooling agents mask part of the throat hit, so a menthol pod can feel gentler than a fruit pod at the same strength. That sensation can tempt people to draw harder or more often than they otherwise would. Pay attention to how much nicotine you are actually taking in, rather than relying on the throat hit as a guide.
If your goal is to stop smoking, a stop smoking service combined with vaping is statistically more effective than either alone. The NHS and local authority stop smoking services can offer free behavioural support and advice on stepping down your nicotine over time. This product is not a medicine and we make no claim that it will help you quit. Non-smokers, pregnant or breastfeeding women, and anyone with a heart condition should speak to a health professional before using nicotine products.
No product suits everyone. Being clear about who this pod is for and who should look elsewhere saves you money and disappointment.
This pod is a good fit if you:
You should probably skip it if you:
There is also a middle group: people who like menthol but find straight menthol too sharp. If that sounds like you, a mint profile with a touch of sweetness may be more comfortable, and pods in a lower nicotine strength reduce the harshness further. Our other Elux pod listings cover those options.
Finally, if you have a medical condition, are taking medication that could interact with nicotine, or have any doubt about whether vaping is appropriate for you, speak to a GP or pharmacist first. This content is general product information, not medical advice.
Setting up a prefilled pod takes under a minute. These steps apply to the Elux Cyberover and to most pod systems of its type; if your device manual says otherwise, follow the manual.
Tips for getting the most from each pod:
To change a pod, simply pull the old one out and push the new one in. Do not try to refill the old pod or re-use it after it has run dry. Used pods contain a small amount of residual liquid and a coil, and they should go for recycling, not in a household bin.
For disposal, take used pods, along with any old or damaged devices, to a recycling point for waste electrical items. Shops that sell vapes in the UK are required to accept waste vapes and batteries back, and local council household waste and recycling centres typically have a small-electricals drop-off. Do not put them in general waste, kerbside recycling or ordinary battery bins that are not intended for vapes, because a punctured battery can ignite.
Finally, keep pods and devices out of reach of children and pets. Even a sealed pod contains nicotine, and a spilled or chewed pod is a poisoning risk. If a child or pet swallows a pod or its contents, seek medical help immediately.
Most problems with pod vapes are simple and can be fixed in a minute. Run through these before assuming a pod is faulty.
If none of this helps, keep the pod, the packaging and your order number and get in touch. A pod that arrives faulty, leaking or damaged is covered by your rights under the Consumer Rights Act 2015, which covers goods that are not as described or not fit for purpose. Sending clear photos and a short description makes the process quicker for everyone.
Value in pod vaping is worth working out properly, because the sticker price of a pod is only part of the picture. A useful way to look at it is cost per day of use, set against the cost of the alternatives.
Here is a straightforward way to calculate it. Take the price of the pod (check the current price on this page), divide it by the number of days a pod lasts you, and you have your daily pod cost. If a pod costs a few pounds and lasts you three to five days at moderate use, you are spending somewhere in the region of one pound or less per day on pods. Add the cost of the device spread over its lifetime and the small cost of electricity for charging, which is negligible, and you have a realistic running cost.
Against that, a pack of twenty cigarettes now costs upwards of fifteen pounds in the UK, so a daily smoker is spending well over a hundred pounds a week. Even allowing for heavier vaping than the example above, most smokers who switch find pods considerably cheaper. Costs vary by individual, so work it out with your own habits.
Where does this pod sit on value more broadly?
A few ways to stretch each pod further without spoiling the experience:
The one caveat on value is the headline puff count. If you buy purely on the 6K label and expect six thousand real puffs per pod, you will be disappointed given the 2ml UK volume limit. Judge value by days of use per pod and your own daily cost, and the maths is straightforward and fair.
Fair comparisons mean admitting where other options do something better. The comparisons below are general, based on the type of product rather than precise specifications for every model, since specs change between batches and listings.
Against other closed prefilled pod systems. The UK market has several closed-pod systems, including the ELFA pod range from Elf Bar and the Vuse ePod. They all work in basically the same way: a reusable battery, a sealed prefilled pod, no filling and no coil changes. Differences come down to the flavour range, the price per pod, how tightly the pod seats, and how long the device battery lasts. If you already own a device from a particular brand, it makes sense to stay in that ecosystem, because pods are not interchangeable between brands. Where the Cyberover fits is in offering a menthol option alongside a broad range of other Elux flavours, with a mesh coil that gives consistent flavour. Where some competitors may do better is in having a longer track record in a given pod format, wider retail availability, or lower per-pod prices on particular promotions.
Against refillable pod systems. Refillable pod devices and nicotine-salt bottles give you complete freedom over flavour and strength, and the running cost per millilitre is much lower. You can also buy replacement coils and refill pods many times. The compromise is effort: you need to learn how to fill a pod without flooding it, handle bottled nicotine safely, and replace coils periodically. If you want to minimise hassle, a prefilled pod such as this one is easier; if you want the lowest long-term cost and the widest choice of flavours, refillable is the stronger option.
Against sub-ohm tanks and mods. These are designed for large clouds and lower nicotine strengths, with open airflow and high wattage. They are a different kind of vaping and suit people who enjoy the hobby side of it. They are not a like-for-like replacement for a pod system, and a 20mg/ml salt would be too harsh in them. If you want a cigarette-like draw and an unfussy setup, the pod route is the more natural one.
Against other Elux products. Elux offers a range of devices and pods across different puff counts and formats. The key differences are the device, the pod capacity class and the flavour list. If you are choosing between sizes, remember that a higher puff-count label on a UK pod does not change the legal limits on volume and nicotine, so look at what is stated on the pack and judge by days of use.

Elux built an audience with the original Elux Legend 3500 and now runs an expanded pod line including Cyberover and Legend 8000 refills. The brand's signature is sweet-leaning flavour builds and iconic colour-coded packaging — easy to spot on a crowded shelf.
Match it to your smoking habit. Around ten or more cigarettes a day, or smoking first thing in the morning, usually points to 20mg/ml, which is the UK maximum. Lighter or social smokers often do better on 10mg/ml, and 5mg/ml or lower suits people stepping down. Check which strengths are offered on the listing, and if you feel dizzy or sick, move to a lower strength.
No, the pod has no battery. Power comes from the Elux Cyberover device, which charges through USB-C on a standard 5V charger. Charge it on a hard surface, never leave it charging unattended overnight, and unplug it when the indicator shows it is full. Stop using it if it gets hot or the casing swells.
Yes. Pods are changed by pulling the old one out and pushing a new one in, so you can switch between menthol and other flavours in the Cyberover range whenever you like. Pods are sealed, so you swap the whole pod rather than mixing flavours. Pods are brand and device specific, so check compatibility before ordering a different flavour.
The 6K figure is the manufacturer's estimate under ideal machine conditions. UK rules limit pods to 2ml, so real-world use will usually be lower. As a rough guide, a light user may get a week or more from a pod, while a heavy user may change it every two to three days. Judge by days of use rather than counting puffs.
For most smokers who switch, running costs are far lower than buying cigarettes, which now cost well over fifteen pounds a pack. Prefilled pods cost more per millilitre than refillable pod devices with bottled liquid, but they need no filling or coil changes. Divide the pod price by the days it lasts you to get your own daily cost.
Anyone under 18, non-smokers and people who have never used nicotine should not buy it. People who are pregnant or breastfeeding, or who have a heart condition, should speak to a health professional first. It is also the wrong buy if you do not own a compatible Elux Cyberover device, or if you dislike the cooling sensation of menthol.
We deliver to UK addresses only. Delivery options, costs and estimated times are shown at checkout and on our delivery page, so please check those for the current details. Because this is a nicotine product, age verification applies, and a parcel may be refused or returned if the recipient cannot show they are 18 or over.
Do not use it. Keep the pod and packaging and contact us with your order number and clear photos. Goods that are faulty or not as described are covered by your rights under the Consumer Rights Act 2015, and we will arrange a replacement or remedy. For hygiene and safety reasons, opened or used vape products are not normally accepted for change-of-mind returns.
Do not put them in household bins or kerbside recycling, because the battery and electronics can start fires. Take used pods and old devices to a small-electricals drop-off at your local council recycling centre, or return them to a shop that sells vapes, as UK retailers are required to accept waste vapes and batteries back.

Excellent all round. Will absolutely be ordering again. Customer service was helpful too.
Can't fault it. Quality is there, flavour is there, delivery was quick. What more could you want.
Picked this up on the multibuy deal and I'm stocked up for a while. Flavours are all on point.
Great product for the price point. Works exactly as advertised. No surprises, just a solid vape.
Not too strong, not too mild — just right. Good for all day use without being overpowering.
