JNR P4 Stellarc 100K Prefilled Pod Kit overview

The JNR P4 Stellarc 100K is a rechargeable pod vape kit built around prefilled, replaceable pods. This listing is the Black Dragon Ice and Passionfruit Kiwi pairing: two fruit-led flavours, one with a cooling finish and one without, aimed at adult smokers and existing vapers who want a low-maintenance device with no bottles to fill, no coils to change and no settings to learn.

Unlike a single-use disposable, the Stellarc is a system. The battery lives in the reusable body, the e-liquid and coil live in the pod, and when a pod runs dry you swap in a fresh one and keep the device. That distinction matters in the UK, because the ban on single-use vapes that came into force on 1 June 2025 removed non-rechargeable, non-refillable products from legal sale. A device designed to be recharged and to take replacement pods sits in a different category from a throwaway stick, which is why kits like this one have become a common landing place for people who used to buy disposables.

JNR sells into the pod-system and disposable-style market, and the P4 Stellarc is its prefilled pod platform. Here is the kit at a glance:

• Format: prefilled pod kit with a reusable rechargeable body and replaceable sealed pods
• Flavours in this listing: Black Dragon Ice and Passionfruit Kiwi
• Headline rating: 100K, which is the brand's puff-count label (the next section explains how to read it)
• Pod capacity: UK-market pods are limited to 2ml of e-liquid
• Nicotine: UK-market e-liquid is capped at 20mg/ml (2%), so check the strength printed on the pod
• Coil: built into each pod, with mesh construction being the norm in this class
• Charging: rechargeable body, with USB-C being the usual connector for current pod kits
• Age restriction: adults aged 18 and over only

A note on how we write specifications. Where a figure is printed in the product name, such as the 100K rating, we quote it and explain what it does and does not mean. Where a figure is not printed on the listing, such as exact battery capacity or coil resistance, we describe what is typical for this class of device rather than inventing a number. Your instruction card and pod label carry the authoritative details for the unit in your box, so check them when it arrives.

Performance and puff delivery: how to read the 100K rating

The number in the product name is the first thing most shoppers notice, so it deserves a straight explanation. A puff rating is a manufacturer's estimate, usually produced on a machine using a fixed puff length and strength. It is a marketing yardstick rather than a promise about your own experience, and each brand calculates it differently.

Under UK rules, the e-liquid in a single pod or tank cannot exceed 2ml. A 2ml pod cannot physically supply 100,000 puffs, because that would mean a tiny fraction of a hundred-thousandth of a litre per draw. So on a UK-market unit the 100K label cannot be a per-pod figure. We have not independently verified how JNR arrives at it, and we would rather say that plainly than repeat it as established fact. Treat it as a platform label and judge the kit by things you can actually measure: pod volume, the number of pods supplied and how you vape.

As a rule of thumb, a 2ml pod gives most adult vapers somewhere in the region of 400 to 800 puffs, depending on draw length, how often they vape and how warm the coil runs. Short, light draws stretch a pod further, while long, hard draws burn through it faster. A former pack-a-day smoker who reaches for the device constantly should expect to change a pod every day or two. A lighter user taking occasional breaks may get most of a week from a single pod.

What the delivery is like in practice:

• Draw style: mouth-to-lung, with a snug draw closer to pulling on a cigarette than to a loose, airy cloud-chasing device, which is what prefilled pod systems are built around
• Vapour production: moderate and controlled rather than cloud-heavy, which suits indoor and public use where a smaller cloud is more considerate
• Consistency: output is not adjustable, so each draw is much the same from the first puff of a pod until the liquid runs low
• Throat feel: depends mainly on nicotine strength, with 20mg/ml giving a noticeable throat hit and lower strengths feeling gentler
• Warm-up: there is no ramp-up time to wait for, as the coil heats as you draw

The practical conclusion is simple: count in pods, not in puffs. When comparing the Stellarc with other kits, divide the price by the number of 2ml pods you receive and compare that figure rather than the number printed on the front of the pack.

Flavour profile: Black Dragon Ice and Passionfruit Kiwi

This listing covers two flavours, and they are deliberately different from one another, which is one of the better reasons to buy a kit with two pods rather than one.

Black Dragon Ice. Dragon fruit is a gentle flavour. In real life it tastes closer to a mild pear or lightly sweet melon with a hint of berry than to anything sharp, which is why vape makers usually pair it with other notes or with cooling. The Black Dragon name points to a darker, more berry-leaning take on the fruit, and the Ice suffix means a menthol-style cooling agent has been added. Expect a soft, sweet fruit on the inhale, with the chill arriving on the exhale and lingering at the back of the throat. Cooling in an Ice flavour is usually clearly present but sits below the intensity of a full menthol or mint pod. If you find the chill too strong, shorter draws soften it.

Passionfruit Kiwi. This is the livelier of the two. Passionfruit brings a tropical, slightly tart and aromatic note, while kiwi adds a green, juicy acidity and a little sweetness. Together they make a bright, tangy profile. The name does not mention ice, so expect little or no cooling, leaving the exhale warm and fruity rather than chilled. Check the pod description on your pack if cooling matters to you.

Why the pairing works as a kit:

• Contrast: one cool and soft, one tangy and bright, so you can switch depending on mood or time of day
• Palate rest: alternating flavours helps avoid vaper's tongue, where a flavour seems to fade after days of using the same one
• Fruit-led: both flavours stay in the fruit family, so there are no dessert, tobacco or heavy menthol notes to put off someone who prefers a clean, fruity taste
• Day and night split: many users keep the cooling pod for outdoors or after meals and the tangy pod for the rest of the day

An honest caveat: flavour is subjective, and our descriptions are based on the flavour names and the conventions of the category rather than laboratory analysis. Intensity also tends to dip slightly as a pod empties, and a fresh pod after a break can taste stronger than you remember. If you are moving across from tobacco flavours, give each fruit pod a few days before judging it, as your palate takes time to adjust.

Design and build quality

The Stellarc follows the layout common to prefilled pod kits: a compact reusable body that houses the battery and electronics, and a pod that clicks into the top. Kits in this category are designed to be pocketable and light enough to carry all day. The mouthpiece is moulded into the pod, so the part that touches your lips is replaced every time you change pods, which is a small hygiene advantage over a device with a permanent mouthpiece.

Because the body is the long-term part of the kit, it is worth knowing what good build looks like when the parcel arrives. Run through this short checklist:

• Pod fit: the pod should seat with a firm click or snug push and sit flush with the body. A pod that rocks or sits proud may not be making full contact with the connectors.
• Pod condition: the liquid should be at or near full, with no large air gaps and no liquid pooled around the base or the electrical contacts.
• Finish: look for clean seams, no cracked plastic and no rattling when you shake the body gently.
• Charging port: it should be clean, undamaged and free of lint before the first charge.
• Indicator light: it should respond when you draw or when you plug in the cable, depending on the design.

If any of these checks fail, stop and contact us before using the device. Photographs taken straight away make a claim much quicker to resolve.

Everyday handling matters as much as first impressions. A pocket is fine, but keep the device away from keys and coins, which can scratch the finish and, in the worst case, bridge the contacts. Prefilled pods can weep if they are squeezed hard or left mouthpiece-down for long periods, especially somewhere warm such as a car dashboard or a bag next to a radiator. Store the kit upright, keep a cap on the mouthpiece if one is supplied, and wipe the pod connectors with a dry cloth if condensation builds up.

Air travel adds one more consideration. Falling cabin pressure can push liquid out of a pod, so carry the device with a nearly empty pod or a spare in a bag, and always pack vapes in hand luggage rather than the hold, as airlines do not accept lithium batteries in checked baggage.

Battery life and charging

The battery sits in the reusable body. Pod kits in this class commonly carry cells somewhere between 500mAh and 1,000mAh. We do not want to print a more exact figure than we can verify, so check the specification on the product listing for the capacity of your unit. What matters more than the headline number is how the battery behaves against a 2ml pod.

A simple energy calculation gives a useful guide. A 1,000mAh lithium cell stores about 3.7Wh. A mouth-to-lung pod typically draws somewhere around 8 to 12 watts for two to three seconds a puff, so each puff costs well under a hundredth of a watt-hour once conversion losses are counted. That works out to roughly 400 to 600 puffs from a 1,000mAh battery, which is about one pod's worth of vaping on a full charge. A smaller battery will do proportionally less. Heavier users should plan to charge once a day, and lighter users may stretch it to two or three days.

Charging habits that keep the battery healthy:

• Use a reputable cable and charger: avoid frayed cables and uncertified chargers, which are a common cause of battery faults.
• Charge on a hard surface: never charge on a bed, sofa or pile of clothes, and do not leave the device charging overnight unattended.
• Top up before it is flat: lithium cells prefer not to be run completely empty, so charge when the indicator warns you rather than waiting for it to die.
• Avoid vaping while plugged in: unless your instruction card says pass-through use is supported, let it charge first.
• Mind the temperature: do not charge or store the device in direct sun, in a hot car or in freezing conditions.
• Unplug when full: follow the indicator on your unit and remove the cable once charging has finished.

All lithium batteries lose capacity gradually, with noticeable decline after a few hundred charge cycles. Because the pods are replaceable, the body is the part that eventually wears out. When it does, do not bin it. Swollen, hot or damaged devices should be taken out of use and recycled properly, as the final section explains. Putting lithium cells in household waste has caused fires in bin lorries and recycling plants across the UK.

Pod, coil and mesh technology

Each prefilled pod is a sealed unit: a reservoir of e-liquid, a wicking system and a heating coil, all in one cartridge. You cannot open it or service it, and you do not need to. Because the coil is built in and matched to the liquid in that pod, you get a fresh coil every time you change pods. That is why prefilled systems avoid the burnt-coil taste that can creep into refillable tanks as the coil ages.

Most current pod systems in this class use a mesh coil. Instead of a single wire wrapped around cotton, a mesh coil is a thin sheet of fine metal with a pattern of tiny holes, pressed against the wick. The advantages are well documented across the category:

• Larger heating surface: liquid is heated over a broader area, which usually gives a rounder, fuller flavour.
• More even heating: fewer hot spots means a lower chance of a harsh or scorched draw on a healthy pod.
• Quick response: the coil reaches working temperature almost as soon as you start drawing.
• Consistent output: flavour tends to stay stable across the life of the pod rather than fading in the first few days.

There is a trade-off. A mesh coil heats more liquid per draw than a small wire coil at the same power, so it can empty a pod somewhat faster. Mouth-to-lung pod coils usually sit at a resistance of roughly 0.8 to 1.4 ohms, which pairs with the modest battery output typical of these kits. We describe mesh as the usual construction in this category rather than confirming the exact coil specification of your pod, so check the pack for the details.

Good coil habits extend the life of every pod:

• Let a new pod rest: after fitting, wait a couple of minutes before the first draw so the wick can saturate fully.
• Space out long draws: chain vaping in rapid succession heats the wick faster than it can refill, which causes dry hits.
• Keep it upright: store the kit with the mouthpiece at the top so liquid stays near the coil rather than pooling in the airflow.
• Replace at the first sign of burning: a scorched taste means the wick is dry, and carrying on only wastes the remaining flavour.
• Do not try to refill: prefilled pods are not designed for it, and forcing one open can damage the seal, cause leaks and void any warranty.

Nicotine strength guidance and UK limits

UK law caps nicotine in e-liquid at 20mg/ml (2%) for any product sold, and that cap applies equally to disposables, prefilled pods and refill bottles. Pods are limited to 2ml and refill bottles to 10ml. You cannot legally buy a stronger nicotine vape in a UK shop, so any product claiming otherwise should be avoided. The cap sets a ceiling rather than a recommendation, and many people do better at a lower figure.

Prefilled pod kits are normally sold at a fixed strength, and many in this category are at or close to the UK maximum, often using nicotine salts that feel smoother at higher strengths than traditional freebase nicotine. Check the strength printed on the product listing and on the pod itself before you buy. As general guidance:

• 18 to 20mg/ml: typically chosen by heavier smokers, roughly ten or more cigarettes a day, or anyone who smokes within half an hour of waking. It gives a cigarette-like throat hit and satisfies cravings quickly.
• 10 to 17mg/ml: a middle ground for lighter smokers, social smokers and people part way through switching.
• Below 10mg/ml: suited to people who are cutting down, long-term vapers who find higher strengths harsh, and anyone who vapes very frequently.

Signs that your strength is too high include dizziness, nausea, headache, sweating, a racing heartbeat or hiccups. If any of these happen, stop vaping, sit down, drink some water and take a break. A strength that is too low shows up differently: persistent cravings, taking many more puffs than expected and drifting back to cigarettes. If you are switching from smoking, getting the strength right in the first week matters, because an under-powered device is the commonest reason people go back to tobacco.

Nicotine is addictive, and this product is intended for adult smokers and existing vapers only. If you do not smoke or vape, do not start. Nicotine is not recommended during pregnancy or breastfeeding, and anyone with a heart condition, high blood pressure or other health concern should speak to a GP or pharmacist first. Keep pods and devices well out of reach of children and pets, as liquid that is swallowed or absorbed through skin can cause nicotine poisoning. If liquid touches your skin, wash it off with soap and water straight away.

Who the JNR P4 Stellarc kit suits and who should skip it

A prefilled pod kit trades flexibility for simplicity. Whether that trade is worthwhile depends entirely on what you want from a vape, so here is a candid view of who this kit works for.

Good fit:

• Adult smokers switching to vaping who want a draw similar to a cigarette and have no wish to learn about coils, wattage or liquid ratios.
• Former disposable users looking for a rechargeable, pod-based alternative now that single-use vapes can no longer be sold in the UK.
• Flavour-variety fans who like having two different profiles to hand rather than committing to one.
• People who value convenience, such as commuters, shift workers and frequent travellers who want a device they can pocket without carrying bottles.
• Fruit and ice lovers who prefer light, sweet-and-fresh flavours over tobacco or dessert profiles.

Less suitable:

• Anyone under 18. It is illegal to sell nicotine vapes to under-18s in the UK, and illegal for an adult to buy them on a young person's behalf.
• Non-smokers. Vaping is much less harmful than smoking according to UK health bodies, but it is not risk-free, and there is no benefit to starting nicotine.
• Pregnant or breastfeeding women and people with heart conditions, who should seek medical advice first.
• Hobbyists who want adjustable airflow, variable wattage or the ability to mix their own e-liquid. A refillable kit is a better match.
• Cloud chasers. Output on a mouth-to-lung pod kit is deliberately modest.
• Cost-minimisers. Refillable systems with bottled e-liquid generally cost less per millilitre than prefilled pods.
• Anyone who dislikes cooling flavours across the board. Only one of the two flavours here is an Ice variant, but it is worth knowing before you buy.

If you are trying to stop smoking, remember that you are not on your own. NHS stop smoking services offer free behavioural support, and some local services in England provide vape starter kits through the Swap to Stop scheme. Combining a vape with support makes a successful quit considerably more likely than going it alone.

How to use the Stellarc pod kit

Prefilled pod kits are designed to be simple, and most people are vaping within a couple of minutes of opening the box. Your instruction card is the final authority for your unit, but the general routine is as follows.

• Step 1, unpack and inspect: remove any protective film or seals from the pod and the device, and run through the build-quality checks described earlier.
• Step 2, charge if needed: if the battery is low on arrival, give it a short charge first using a reputable cable and charger.
• Step 3, choose a pod: pick Black Dragon Ice or Passionfruit Kiwi and push it into the top of the body until it clicks into place.
• Step 4, wait briefly: leave the device upright for a minute or two so the wick saturates before the first draw.
• Step 5, take a gentle first draw: prefilled pod systems are generally draw-activated, so simply inhale. If your unit has a button, follow the instruction card for the correct press sequence.
• Step 6, vape at a relaxed pace: draw slowly for two to four seconds into your mouth, pause briefly, then inhale to the lungs. This mouth-to-lung style is what the device is tuned for.
• Step 7, swap pods when needed: pull the used pod straight out, fit the new one, and store the spare pod upright somewhere cool and out of reach of children.

Knowing when a pod is finished saves frustration. Signs include a thin or scorched taste, noticeably less vapour, a weak throat hit and an empty-looking reservoir. When you see them, change the pod rather than pushing on. Continuing to draw on a dry wick tastes unpleasant and wears out the device's contacts faster.

A few points of etiquette and law are worth remembering. There is no blanket UK ban on vaping indoors, but individual venues, employers, public transport operators and many train stations set their own rules, and a polite default is to ask first and to keep your cloud away from others. Keep your kit out of children's reach, and do not leave it in a hot vehicle. Finally, never let someone under 18 use it, even briefly, as handing a nicotine product to a young person is an offence in its own right.

Troubleshooting common problems

Most faults with pod kits come down to a handful of causes, and many can be fixed in under a minute. Work through the list below before assuming the device is faulty.

• Nothing happens when you draw: remove the pod and reseat it firmly, then wipe the pod and body contacts with a dry cloth. Check the battery is charged and that the device is not in a locked mode, which some units use and which your instruction card will describe.
• Weak flavour or thin vapour: the likeliest causes are an almost-empty pod, a low battery or a brand-new pod that has not saturated. Rest the device for a couple of minutes, charge it, or swap in a fresh pod.
• Burnt or dry taste: stop vaping straight away. This usually means the pod is empty or you have been drawing too rapidly. Change the pod and space out your draws.
• Leaking: wipe the pod and contacts, reseat it, and store the kit upright. Leaks often follow heat, pressure changes or squeezing. If a fresh pod leaks repeatedly, keep it for evidence and contact us.
• Gurgling sound: condensation has gathered in the airflow channel. Wipe the mouthpiece and, with the device pointing away from you, blow gently through it to clear the moisture.
• Will not charge: try a different cable and port, and check the charging socket for lint. Clear debris gently with a wooden toothpick, never metal, and never force the plug.
• Indicator light flashing: flashing patterns commonly signal a low battery, a pod that is not detected or a short-circuit protection. The instruction card lists the meanings for your model.
• Pod runs out quickly: heavy use, long draws and chain vaping all shorten pod life, as does a high nicotine strength that encourages more frequent puffing.

Some symptoms mean you should stop using the device completely. If the body becomes hot to the touch, swells, emits a burning smell, makes hissing noises or is visibly damaged, unplug it if it is charging, move it somewhere safe away from anything flammable, and do not use it again. Contact us with photographs and your order number, and arrange safe disposal through a proper recycling point rather than the household bin.

If liquid gets on your skin, wash with soap and water. If it gets in your eyes, rinse with clean water and seek medical advice. If a child or pet swallows liquid, call NHS 111 or a vet immediately, or 999 in an emergency.

Value for money and fair comparisons

The most useful way to judge value on any prefilled system is cost per pod and cost per day, not cost per advertised puff. A kit like this includes the reusable body plus the pods shown in the pairing, so the upfront price covers hardware and a first supply of liquid. After that, your running cost is the price of replacement pods divided by how many days each one lasts you. If a pod lasts you three days, divide the pod price by three to find your daily cost, then compare that against what you currently spend on cigarettes or disposables.

Here is how the Stellarc sits against the alternatives, in plain terms:

• Against single-use disposables: disposables are no longer legal to sell in the UK, so the realistic comparison is with rechargeable systems. The Stellarc keeps the same grab-and-go feel but lets you keep the body and replace only the pod, which produces less waste and usually costs less over time.
• Against refillable pod kits such as the Vaporesso XROS and Uwell Caliburn families: refillable kits cost less per millilitre, let you choose from thousands of bottled flavours and strengths, and often have a replaceable coil head. In exchange you must handle liquid, fill pods and accept a learning curve. The Stellarc suits people who value convenience over the lowest running cost.
• Against other prefilled systems such as Elf Bar Elfa, Lost Mary Tappo and SKE Crystal pods: these compete directly, with broadly similar mouth-to-lung delivery and sealed mesh pods. The differences lie in the flavour range, the price of each pod and the availability of replacements, so compare those three things rather than the puff rating on the box.

One question deserves special attention before you commit: how easy is it to buy replacement pods? Pods are not interchangeable between brands, so a kit is only as useful as the supply of pods that fit it. A slightly more expensive system with plentiful pods is a better buy than a cheaper one you cannot restock.

Strengths worth weighing: no maintenance, two contrasting fruit flavours, a fresh coil with every pod, a rechargeable body that cuts waste, and a draw that suits former smokers. Weaknesses worth weighing: fixed output with no adjustment, higher running costs than a refillable kit, pods tied to one platform, a puff rating that is hard to interpret and a nicotine strength you cannot change. If those weaknesses do not trouble you, the kit offers reasonable value for convenience-focused buyers. If they do, a refillable alternative will likely suit you better.

Recycling, safe storage and responsible use

Vapes contain lithium batteries and electronic components, which means they are classed as waste electrical equipment in the UK. They must not go in household bins, kerbside recycling or street litter bins. Batteries that are crushed in a refuse lorry are a recognised cause of fires, and the problem has grown as more vapes enter the waste stream.

Where to take used devices and pods:

• Retailer take-back: shops that sell vapes are required to accept old vaping equipment for recycling, so you can usually return a used device and its empty pods to a vape shop when you buy replacements.
• Household waste recycling centres: most council sites have a small electricals or battery container where vapes can be left.
• Supermarket and high street drop-off points: many large stores have small electrical recycling bins near the entrance.
• Finding a point near you: the Recycle Your Electricals website has a postcode search for local drop-off locations that accept small electricals and vapes.

Before you recycle, switch the device off if it has a switch, do not pierce, crush or dismantle it, and keep pods upright where you can so any remaining liquid stays contained. Check the instructions at your chosen drop-off point, as some schemes ask for the body and the pod to go in together and others separate them.

Safe storage and use come down to a few habits:

• Keep the kit and spare pods out of reach of children and pets at all times.
• Store at room temperature, away from direct sun, radiators and vehicle dashboards.
• Carry vapes in hand luggage on flights, never in the hold.
• Do not modify the device, attempt to refill pods or use chargers that were not designed for it.
• Dispose of damaged or swollen batteries through a recycling point and never leave them charging.

Vaping regulation in the UK continues to develop, so it is worth checking current rules on sales, flavours and packaging from time to time. Using the product responsibly, recycling it properly and keeping it away from young people helps protect the people around you and keeps vaping accessible for the adult smokers it is intended to help.
