EluxThe Watermelon Ice Elux Cyberover 6K Prefilled Pods by Elux in Watermelon Ice at 10mg and 20mg. Free UK delivery over £20, same-day dispatch on weekday orders before 4pm.
The Elux Cyberover 6K Prefilled Pods in Watermelon Ice are replacement pods for the Elux Cyberover pod system. Each pod arrives sealed and already filled with nicotine salt e-liquid, so there is no bottle to open, no tank to fill and no coil to build. You click the pod into the device, give the mesh coil a few seconds to wet, and start vaping. When the pod runs dry you swap in a fresh one and keep the same rechargeable device, which is the whole point of the format.
Elux has been a familiar name on UK counters for several years, and the Cyberover is its pod-based line. The 6K in the name is the manufacturer's puff rating for the range. It describes roughly how many inhalations the liquid and coil are designed to deliver under controlled test conditions, and later in this guide we explain how to read that number sensibly. Watermelon Ice is the flavour on this page: a ripe, juicy watermelon note with a cooling menthol layer that arrives on the exhale.
Here is a quick specification summary for this listing, based on what the format indicates. Where a manufacturer does not publish an exact figure we say so rather than guess.
In UK terms this is a rechargeable-device format. Since the ban on single-use vapes came into force on 1 June 2025, pod systems like the Cyberover are one of the ways adult smokers can still get the grab-and-go convenience of a prefilled product while reusing the battery. The nicotine ceiling is unchanged: 20mg/ml is the legal maximum for nicotine e-liquid, the same cap that applied to disposables before the ban. The rest of this page covers performance, flavour, build, battery, coil, nicotine choice, who the pods suit, how to use them, what to do when something goes wrong and how they compare on price.
This product contains nicotine, which is addictive. It is intended for adult smokers and vapers only and is sold to people aged 18 and over. Do not use it if you are pregnant or if you have never smoked.
Puff ratings are the most misunderstood number in vaping, so it is worth reading the 6K on the box with some scepticism. A puff rating is produced in a laboratory by a machine taking uniform, short draws at a fixed interval. A person does not vape like that. Longer draws, more frequent sessions, a run of puffs after a meal and a firm pull on a mesh coil all use liquid faster than a machine does. Treat the rating as a way of comparing products under identical conditions, not as a promise of how long your pod will last.
The more useful question is how much liquid you are actually getting. UK rules limit a pod or tank to 2ml, so a single prefilled pod holds at most 2ml of nicotine salt liquid. At the typical consumption of a pod-style device, a 2ml pod works out closer to a few hundred puffs than to thousands for most people. If the pack you buy contains more than one pod, the combined output is what the 6K rating is trying to describe, so check what is included on the listing before you assume how long one pod will last. We would rather you hear that from us now than feel short-changed on day two.
As a rough guide, and with the caveat that individual results vary a lot:
Several habits change how quickly a pod empties. Long, hard draws on a mesh coil pull more liquid through and produce more vapour per puff, so they empty the pod faster. Vaping straight after a pod change, before the coil has fully wicked, can cause dry hits that waste both liquid and patience. Leaving the device in a hot car or a warm pocket can thin the liquid and encourage leaking at the pod seal, which shortens usable life. On the other hand, taking shorter two to three second draws, pausing between puffs and keeping the device upright when not in use will help a pod last closer to its potential.
Flavour consistency is the other half of performance. A good pod tastes the same on the last puff as on the first, and only drops off sharply when the liquid is nearly gone. If the flavour turns thin or slightly burnt while you can still see liquid in the pod window, that is usually a wicking problem rather than an empty pod, and our troubleshooting section below walks through what to try.
Throat hit and vapour production sit in the middle of the range. Nicotine salt at 20mg/ml gives a smooth but noticeable hit that suits a mouth-to-lung draw, the style most smokers find familiar. If you are used to large cloud-chasing devices, this is not that. The Cyberover is built for discreet, frequent, low-effort vaping.
Watermelon Ice sits in the fruit-and-cooling category, which is one of the most popular groupings in UK vaping. The flavour is built in three layers, and understanding them helps you decide whether it will suit your palate.
This balance is the reason Watermelon Ice tends to appeal to people stepping away from cigarettes who do not want tobacco flavours. The coolness gives a sensation that replaces some of the throat feedback of smoke, while the fruit makes the experience pleasant enough to keep you away from cigarettes at moments when you would normally light up. For many switchers, a sweet fruit profile is the difference between sticking with vaping and drifting back.
How sweet is it? It is a sweet flavour, and if you prefer dry, bitter or tobacco-leaning profiles you will probably find it too sugary after an hour or two. Fruit-and-ice liquids can also cause what vapers call flavour fatigue, where your palate stops registering the taste after a long session. If that happens, changing to a mint or a tobacco flavour for a day, or simply drinking some water, usually resets your tastebuds.
How strong is the ice? On a scale where a plain fruit liquid is zero and a menthol-heavy mint is ten, Watermelon Ice sits around the middle. It will feel noticeably cooler than a standard fruit flavour, yet it is not an arctic blast. People who dislike menthol may still find it too cool, and people who want a freezing hit may find it mild. If you are unsure, read it as a refreshing flavour rather than an intense one.
One practical note: lighter fruit flavours show their character best when the coil is fresh. Over the life of a pod you may notice the sweetness softening slightly as the liquid level drops. This is normal behaviour for a prefilled mesh pod and is not a defect.
Watermelon Ice is one entry in a wider Elux flavour catalogue. Elux builds its range around a familiar set of UK favourites, and the pods for each device generally follow the same pattern: sweet fruit, fruit with ice, a couple of soft drinks and a straight mint. The lineup changes between releases and not every flavour is stocked at all times, so use the flavour selector on the product page as the final word on what is available today.
Flavours that Elux commonly offers across its pod and kit ranges, and which sit alongside Watermelon Ice, include:
Treat the list above as an indication of the Elux style rather than a stock sheet, since availability varies by batch and by shop. What matters for you is the difference between three groups. Fruit-only flavours such as Mixed Berries keep a warm, sweet profile. Fruit-and-ice flavours such as Watermelon Ice add a cooling layer on the exhale. Drink-style flavours such as Cherry Cola lean on spice and fizz rather than fruit alone.
If you have never used an Elux pod before, a sensible way to choose is to start with the flavour family you already like in sweets or soft drinks. Watermelon Ice suits people who like summer fruit sweets and fruit lollies. If you drink fizzy cola or energy drinks, the drink-style flavours may suit you better. If you like fresh breath mints, go for the mint.
Flavour swapping is simple with a pod system. Because each pod is a sealed unit, you can run Watermelon Ice today and a different flavour tomorrow without cleaning anything. The trade-off is that you should finish or remove a pod before changing, since a half-used pod left in the device and then stored can leak. If you plan to swap often, keep each unused pod in its original packaging until you need it. Ghosting of flavour is rarely a problem with sealed pods, which is one of the genuine advantages of this format over a refillable tank.
A prefilled pod is a small piece of engineering, and its construction affects both taste and leak resistance. The Elux Cyberover pod is a clear or lightly tinted plastic housing that holds the e-liquid, with a mesh coil section at the base and a mouthpiece at the top. The pod seats onto the device through a plug-in connection, with a snug fit intended to prevent liquid creeping out around the join.
The points to check when you receive your pods are straightforward:
The mouthpiece shape is designed for a mouth-to-lung draw, so the airflow is tight and controlled rather than open. That produces a more cigarette-like resistance, which is what many switchers want, and it also means the pod suits the nicotine salt liquid inside. If you try to use the pod like a cloud-chasing device with a big, fast inhale, you can pull too much liquid through the coil and cause gurgling or spitting.
On the build side, pods in this class are made from lightweight plastic and are not built for rough treatment. Dropping a pod can crack the housing or break the seal, and squeezing the pod body can force liquid into the airflow channel. Keep spare pods in a pocket of a bag rather than loose with keys and coins, and store them upright where possible. Avoid leaving them in direct sunlight or a hot car because heat expands the liquid and encourages leaks.
The device itself is a compact, pocketable body with a rechargeable battery inside and a simple draw-activated or button-activated firing system depending on the model in your hands. It is worth noting that the design emphasis is on portability rather than longevity. A pod system like this is not meant to be repaired, rebuilt or modified, and any attempt to open the pod or the device is both unsafe and likely to void any warranty.
Overall, expect solid everyday build quality for the price bracket, a sensible airflow design for smokers switching to vaping and a pod that behaves best when it is handled gently and kept upright.
The pod holds the liquid and the coil, but the battery lives in the Cyberover device. That distinction matters because the pods on this page contain no battery of their own. You need a compatible Elux Cyberover device to use them, and you should confirm compatibility before buying if you are not sure which device you own.
Devices in this class usually carry an internal lithium-ion battery in roughly the 500 to 650 mAh range. Elux does not always publish a precise figure for each model, so treat that as a typical range rather than a specification printed on your pack. A battery of that size is a good match for a 2ml pod: it is large enough to empty a pod or two between charges for a moderate user, and small enough to keep the device slim and pocketable.
Charging is done over USB-C, which is the connector most UK households already have on a phone charger or laptop. Practical points that will keep the battery healthy:
Lithium-ion cells prefer to be topped up regularly instead of being run flat, so recharging when the light flashes is better than draining the battery to nothing. If you do not plan to use the device for a few weeks, store it at partial charge in a cool, dry place and remove the pod.
Battery life in practice depends on how you vape. Short draws at a lower effective power use less battery per puff than long draws, and a device that fires on every light touch in a pocket can waste charge, so lock or remove the pod if your model allows. As a guide, one full charge should cover roughly the liquid in one pod, though this is not a promise. If your device dies well before the pod is empty, the battery may be ageing or the charging cable may be faulty, and it is worth trying a different cable before contacting the retailer.
At the end of its life the battery cannot be removed safely by the user. Do not put the device in household waste or general recycling. See the recycling guidance in the how-to-use section below.
The coil is the part of the pod that turns liquid into vapour, and the mesh coil in the Cyberover pod is the reason this format has become so common. A traditional round-wire coil has a small contact area with the cotton wick. A mesh coil uses a thin, flat sheet of metal with thousands of tiny perforations, rolled or folded against the wick. The much larger surface area heats the liquid more evenly and more quickly.
What does that mean in daily use?
Coils in pods of this type typically sit at a resistance of around 0.8 to 1.2 ohms and run at modest power, in the region of ten to fifteen watts. That is a mouth-to-lung range, producing a warm vapour rather than a hot one. Again, the maker does not always state exact numbers for each pod, so treat these as the typical class values.
Mesh also changes how the pod ages. A prefilled coil is designed to last for the life of the pod, not to be reused. The cotton behind the mesh gradually darkens as it is used, and residue slowly builds on the metal. In a 2ml pod this is rarely an issue, because the pod empties before the coil degrades badly. If you refill pods yourself, which is neither recommended nor supported for sealed prefilled units, the coil would degrade much faster and the taste would suffer.
Priming is the one place where users can help the coil. After fitting a new pod, wait for around three to five minutes before taking your first full draw. That wait lets the liquid soak into the cotton on either side of the mesh. If you skip it, the first few draws may taste harsh or burnt, because the coil is firing against a dry wick, and you can shorten the life of the coil. A couple of gentle, short puffs without firing for a moment can also help draw liquid through.
In short, the mesh coil is a real technical advantage over entry-level coils, and it is the main reason a 2ml pod can deliver the flavour intensity people expect from a much larger device.
Choosing the right nicotine strength is the most important decision you will make with a pod, and it is easy to get wrong in either direction. In the UK, nicotine e-liquid is capped at 20mg/ml (2%), and this applies to prefilled pods as much as to bottles. The cap is the same one that applied to disposable vapes before they were banned. Most prefilled pods are sold in either 20mg/ml or a lower strength such as 10mg/ml, and you should select the one that matches your needs on the product page.
The pods on this page use nicotine salt rather than freebase nicotine. Nicotine salt is absorbed more quickly and feels smoother on the throat at a given strength, which is why it is the standard for pod systems. It also means that 20mg/ml of nicotine salt feels different from 20mg/ml freebase: it is less harsh on the throat, but it delivers nicotine to your bloodstream faster.
As a starting guide:
Signs you may be using too much nicotine include feeling light-headed, nauseous, jittery or having a racing heartbeat, as well as a headache or a very harsh throat. If you notice these, take a break, drink water, and switch to a lower strength. Signs you may be using too little include constantly reaching for the device, strong cravings between sessions and slipping back into smoking.
One more point on honesty: nicotine is addictive. Vaping is widely regarded as substantially less harmful than smoking for adults who switch completely, but it is not risk-free. It is not intended for people who have never smoked, for young people or for anyone who is pregnant. If you want to stop nicotine entirely, local stop smoking services across the UK can provide free support, and many people use a gradually reducing strength as part of that plan.
If you are unsure between two strengths, consider how you used cigarettes. If you smoked a full pack, start at 20mg/ml and step down over time. If you smoked a few a day, start at 10mg/ml. You can always change strength at your next purchase.
No product suits everyone, and being clear about fit saves you money. Here is a plain assessment of who these Elux Cyberover Watermelon Ice pods work for.
They are a good fit if you:
You should look elsewhere if you:
A final category deserves a mention: people who have already switched from smoking and want to cut costs. If you have been vaping for a few months and know your preferences, an open refillable pod device with bottled 10ml nicotine salt liquid will usually cost less over a year. Prefilled pods make sense when simplicity matters more than the last few pounds, such as when you are travelling, when you are new to vaping and want one less thing to get wrong or when you do not want to handle liquid.
If you are on the fence, ask yourself two questions. First, do you want the easiest possible route away from cigarettes? Second, are you comfortable paying a premium for that? If both answers are yes, these pods are a reasonable choice. If either answer is no, consider one of the alternatives we discuss in the comparison section.
Getting started takes under a minute, but a few details make the difference between a good first pod and a frustrating one. Follow these steps for the Elux Cyberover pods.
Everyday tips that help the pod behave well:
Storing and carrying: keep spare pods in their packaging in a cool, dry place away from children and pets. Nicotine liquid is dangerous if swallowed or if it gets on the skin, so wash any spilt liquid off straight away with soap and water and seek medical advice if a child or pet has been exposed.
Recycling in the UK: empty pods, devices and batteries must not go in household bins or in kerbside recycling, because lithium cells can start fires in collection vehicles and recycling plants. Shops that sell vapes are required to take back used vaping products, and most household waste recycling centres have a dedicated electrical or battery bin. Look for in-store collection points at vape shops and larger retailers, or use your council's recycling centre. Keep used pods away from children until you can take them. Where possible, let the pod run out completely before disposing of it, as a leaking half-full pod is harder to handle safely.
Most pod problems have simple causes. Work through the likely ones below before assuming the pod is faulty.
Safety first: if the device becomes very hot, swells, smokes or makes a hissing noise, stop using it straight away, move it somewhere non-flammable and do not charge it again. Contact the shop for help, and do not put a damaged device in a household bin.
If you have worked through the list and the problem persists on a new pod, contact the retailer with your order number and a short description of the fault. A clear photo of the pod and the device is usually the quickest way to get a resolution, and it helps to say how long the pod had been in use and whether the device charged normally.
Value in the pod category comes down to cost per day of use, not the headline price of a single pod. A prefilled pod holds up to 2ml, and 2ml of nicotine salt liquid costs far more when sold this way than when bought in a 10ml bottle for a refillable device. You are paying for convenience: no bottle, no coil changes, no spills, and a flavour that is already tuned by the manufacturer.
To judge whether the Elux Cyberover is worth it for you, compare these costs:
For many UK smokers, even a heavy week of pods costs less than a week of cigarettes. That comparison is the real value case. Compared with other vaping routes, the picture is more nuanced. Here is how the Cyberover pods compare fairly with the alternatives you are likely to be weighing up:
None of these is better in every respect, and the brand landscape moves quickly, so check current specifications and prices before deciding. What we can say is that the Cyberover pods are priced as a convenience product, they deliver on flavour and simplicity, and they make most sense for a smoker who wants an easy switch and is comfortable paying a modest premium for it. If you vape heavily, run the cost-per-day sums before you commit, and consider keeping one refillable device in reserve for days when you go through a lot of liquid.
As ever, the best outcome is that vaping helps you stop smoking and eventually reduce or stop nicotine altogether. If you reach that stage, the best value of all is not buying pods.

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.
Choose 20mg/ml (2%), the UK legal maximum, if you smoke about ten or more cigarettes a day or crave a cigarette first thing in the morning. Choose 10mg/ml if you smoke lightly or socially, or if 20mg feels too harsh or makes you light-headed. Always confirm the strength printed on the pack before you use it.
The pods themselves never need charging; the Cyberover device charges over USB-C from a standard phone charger or computer port. A full charge typically takes roughly 30 to 60 minutes, and the indicator light shows when it is done. Do not charge it overnight on a soft surface or use it while it is plugged in.
Yes. Because every pod is sealed, you can switch from Watermelon Ice to another Elux flavour simply by removing one pod and fitting another, with no cleaning needed. Flavours such as Blue Razz Ice, Strawberry Ice, Cherry Cola and Mint are commonly available across the range, but stock changes, so check the flavour selector for what is in stock now.
A single pod holds up to 2ml, and the 6K figure is the manufacturer's rating for the range rather than a promise for one pod. Light users may get several days from a pod, moderate users around a day or two, and heavy users less than a day. Short draws and good priming help a pod last longer.
Prefilled pods cost more per millilitre than bottled e-liquid in a refillable kit, so you are paying for convenience. For most UK smokers they still cost less per week than cigarettes. If you vape heavily and want the lowest running cost, a refillable pod kit will work out cheaper over time.
They suit adult smokers who want a simple, low-maintenance switch and who enjoy a sweet fruit flavour with a cooling finish, and who already own a compatible Cyberover device. They are not for under-18s, non-smokers, pregnant women, or anyone who dislikes menthol or wants large clouds.
These pods are designed for the Elux Cyberover device, and you should not assume they fit other Elux kits or other brands. If you are unsure which device you own, check the model name on the device or the original box before ordering. Forcing a pod into the wrong device can damage the contacts.
We ship to UK addresses only, and you must be 18 or over to buy. Age verification may be required at checkout or on delivery. Delivery options, prices and cut-off times are shown at checkout, so check them there for the most accurate information.
Because vaping products are sealed consumables, unopened items in original packaging are generally the only ones eligible for return, and opened pods usually cannot be returned for hygiene and safety reasons. If a pod or device arrives faulty or damaged, contact us with your order number and a photo and we will arrange a remedy. See our returns page for the full policy.
Do not put used pods, devices or batteries in household bins or kerbside recycling, because lithium batteries can cause fires. Retailers that sell vapes are required to take back used vaping products, and most household waste recycling centres have an electrical or battery drop-off point. Let the pod empty fully before disposal where you can.

Delivery was super fast and the product is genuine. I've had fakes before so this was a relief.
Pleasantly surprised. Was expecting it to be average but it's actually really nice. Recommended.
Really nice flavour — not too sweet, not too harsh. Perfect in the middle. Second order already placed.
Easy to use, straight out the pack and working. No fiddling about with anything. Great for beginners too.
Solid purchase. Has become part of my routine now. Will continue ordering from here.
Battery lasts me a full day easily. Charging is quick. Overall very pleased with the purchase.
