Hayati Pro Max Plus 4000 Replacement Pods Blackberry Raspberry: what you are buying

Hayati Pro Max Plus 4000 Replacement Pods Blackberry Raspberry are prefilled nicotine salt pods for the Hayati Pro Max Plus 4000 device, sold at £6.99 and available in 10mg or 20mg strength. They are the consumable half of a closed-pod system. The battery section of your device stays with you, and when a pod runs dry you pull it out and click a fresh one in. There is nothing to fill, no coil to prime and no cotton to wick, which is the whole point of the closed-pod format and the reason it has become the usual route for adults who want a tidy, pocketable vape.

The flavour is Blackberry Raspberry, a two-fruit berry blend that leans on dark, jammy blackberry with a tart raspberry lift over the top. It sits in a line of more than two dozen Hayati Pro Max Plus 4000 pod flavours, all at the same price, so choosing between them is a matter of taste and not of budget.

A little context helps. Since 1 June 2025 the sale of single-use vapes has been banned across England, Scotland and Wales, which pushed the market firmly towards rechargeable devices with swappable pods. A replacement pod like this one is what that shift looks like in practice: the part that wears out is small and inexpensive, the part with a battery is kept and reused, and fewer whole devices end up in the bin.

Here is a quick summary of what the listing tells us:

• Product type: prefilled replacement pod with nicotine salt e-liquid
• Flavour: Blackberry Raspberry
• Strengths: 10mg and 20mg, chosen on the product page
• Price: £6.99 per pod
• Rating: 4000 puffs, as named by the brand
• Pod size: inside the UK legal ceiling of 2ml for a nicotine pod
• Delivery: free UK delivery over £20, with dispatch before 4pm

We do not quote a battery capacity, a coil resistance or an exact fill volume here. Those figures either belong to the device or are not stated by the maker for this pod, and we would rather leave a gap than print a guess. Everything below sticks to what can be reasoned from the product name, the UK rules and how closed-pod systems work in general. This page is written for adults only. If you are under 18, or you do not already use nicotine, these pods are not for you.

What the 4000 puff rating means and how long a pod really lasts

The 4000 in the name is a puff rating, and it is worth being straight about what that figure is. Brands arrive at ratings by running a device on a machine that takes identical, evenly spaced draws until the liquid or the battery gives out. People do not draw like machines. A long, slow pull uses far more liquid than a short sip, and someone taking a few puffs an hour will see a very different lifespan from someone taking twenty in a row. Read 4000 as a way to compare one product against another, and as a ceiling that describes the system rather than a promise about one pod.

There is also a legal point. UK rules cap a nicotine pod at 2ml of liquid, so every pod sold legitimately here sits inside that limit whatever is printed on the box. A figure in the thousands next to a pod that small tells you the maker is quoting a theoretical number. Our own rule of thumb, which is not a manufacturer specification, is that a 2ml pod lasts somewhere between a couple of days for a heavy user and around a week for a light one. If a pod lasts a good deal longer than that, you are a light user or you are on the lower strength. If it lasts much less, run through the checks later on this page before blaming the pod.

The things that move pod life most are these:

• Draw length. Long pulls vaporise more liquid per puff. Short, gentle draws stretch a pod.
• Frequency. Constant back to back puffing heats the coil and drains the pod faster than spaced use.
• Nicotine strength. At 20mg many people are satisfied by fewer puffs, while at 10mg they often take more.
• Flavour sweetness. Fruit blends contain sweetening agents that can build up on a coil and mute flavour towards the end of a pod.
• Temperature. A pod left in a hot car or a coat pocket on a radiator can seep, and warm thin liquid behaves differently from cool liquid.

On delivery, a prefilled pod should give a steady, draw-activated hit from the first puff, with no button to hold down. Vapour volume should stay consistent for most of the pod, then begin to thin, taste flatter or turn faintly toasted as the last of the liquid is used. That change is your cue to swap the pod, not to keep pushing it. Dry pulling a nearly empty pod is unpleasant and wears the coil out for no benefit.

One practical habit is worth adopting from day one. Keep a spare pod in your bag or drawer so that the moment a pod fades you can swap it rather than waiting for the next shop run. It is the single easiest way to avoid going back to something you are trying to leave behind.

Blackberry Raspberry flavour profile in detail

Blackberry Raspberry is a straight fruit blend with no cooling agent in the name. Hayati marks its cooled flavours with an Ice tag, and this one does not carry it, so expect a warm, sweet berry vapour instead of a chilled one. Here is how it tends to unfold across a draw, described in our own words rather than lifted from the maker's tasting notes.

• Inhale: the blackberry arrives first, deep and slightly jammy, closer to cooked fruit than to a handful of fresh berries.
• Middle of the draw: the raspberry cuts across it. It is the brighter, tarter of the two fruits, and it stops the blend from tasting heavy.
• Exhale: a soft sweetness lingers on the lips and tongue with a faint berry skin note, rather than a sharp or sour finish.

Sweetness sits around the middle of the Hayati range. It is noticeable but not syrupy. Anyone who finds candy style flavours cloying will probably be comfortable with it, and anyone who wants dessert level sweetness may find it a touch restrained. Because both berries sit on the darker, richer side of the fruit spectrum, the flavour holds up across a full pod and suits steady all day use better than the loud sour or fizzy profiles, which can tire the palate after a few days.

If you are weighing it against neighbouring flavours in the same 4000 line, the names give a fair guide to where each one sits:

• Blueberry Raspberry should read rounder and sweeter, with a candied blueberry front.
• Red Sour Raspberry and Blue Sour Raspberry lean sharp and tangy, with a sour edge this pod does not have.
• Strawberry Raspberry Ice and Strawberry Raspberry Blueberry bring strawberry sweetness, and the first adds a cooling finish.
• White Peach Raspberry swaps the dark berry base for a softer stone fruit one.
• Cherry Berry and Grape Berry head towards cherry or grape sweetness rather than jam.

Flavour fatigue is real with any fruit pod. Taste buds adapt, and after a week on the same flavour many vapers say it seems to fade even though the pod is fine. Rotating between two flavours, one berry and one from a different family such as mint or citrus, tends to keep things fresh. Because a pod is a fixed price whatever flavour you choose, there is no penalty for mixing.

If you have just fitted a new pod after a different flavour, the first couple of puffs can carry a trace of the previous one from the device contacts and airway. It clears quickly and is not a fault.

Design and build quality of the pod

A replacement pod is a small, sealed component, and its build quality comes down to a handful of things you can check with your eyes and fingers. The body is a moulded plastic housing with a mouthpiece at the top, a sealed reservoir for the liquid and a pair of electrical contacts or a coil seat at the base where it meets the device. It slides or clicks into the pod bay and is held in place by a snug fit and, on most designs, a small magnet or ridge. We do not publish exact dimensions for this pod because the maker's listing does not give them, but a Pro Max Plus 4000 pod is made to sit flush with the body of the matching device, so a correctly fitted pod should not rock, wobble or leave a visible gap.

When your order arrives, a quick inspection is worthwhile:

• Seal. The pod should arrive in its own sealed wrapping. If the outer packaging is open or damp, do not use it, and contact us.
• Liquid level. The reservoir should look full or close to full. Large bubbles are normal, but liquid pooled around the contacts is not.
• Mouthpiece. It should be clean and free of cracks or sharp edges.
• Contacts. The metal connections should be dry, clean and not bent.

A well made pod keeps its liquid where it should be, which is inside. Leaks usually trace back to a poor seal at the factory, damage in transit or storing the pod on its side in the warm. Reputable stock moved through a proper supply chain, as ours is, goes a long way towards avoiding the first two. The third is down to you, and the advice is simple: keep pods upright and cool.

The shell is designed to be handled. It is light, it does not need a tool, and a fresh pod should seat in a second or two. The pod itself is not designed to be opened, refilled or tampered with. Doing so voids any claim on the product and can damage the coil. If you want a vape you can fill from a bottle, a refillable pod system is the right format, and we cover how the two compare later on.

Finally, there is the matter of the device. These are replacement pods, which means a Hayati Pro Max Plus 4000 device has to be on hand to use them. The Pro Max Plus 6000 pods are listed as separate products, so do not assume a 4000 pod fits a 6000 device, or the other way round. Match the pod to the device name on your battery unit, and if you are unsure, send us a message before ordering and we will check it with you.

Battery and charging: what the pod needs from the device

The pod does not contain a battery. All the power comes from the Hayati Pro Max Plus 4000 device it clips into, which is why this page does not quote a milliamp hour figure. That number belongs to the battery section, and putting one here would be a guess. What matters from the pod's point of view is that the device delivers a steady, appropriate level of power to the coil each time you draw, and that the battery is charged enough to do so.

This is where many apparent pod problems actually start. A battery running low gives thin, cool, flat vapour, which looks exactly like a pod that has run out of liquid. Before you throw away a pod that has weak flavour, put the device on charge for a while and try again. If the vapour returns to normal, it was the battery all along.

Sensible charging habits keep the device healthy for longer:

• Use the cable that came with your device, or a decent quality replacement, plugged into a standard USB power source. Most current pod devices charge over USB-C, but check the connector on yours.
• Avoid fast chargers rated far above what a small device expects. A basic 5V phone charger or a computer USB port is plenty.
• Do not leave it charging unattended overnight, and do not charge it on a bed, sofa or any soft surface.
• Charge it before it is completely flat. Letting it hit zero repeatedly is hard on any lithium battery.
• Keep it away from heat. A car dashboard in summer is the classic way to ruin a battery and a pod in a single afternoon.
• Stop using any device that is swollen, hot to the touch while idle or damaged, and take it to a recycling point.

The device indicator light will usually show a low battery with a change in colour or a flash when you draw. Patterns differ from model to model, so check the leaflet or the manufacturer's notes for your particular unit. Because charge time varies with the battery and the charger, we will not give a minute figure. As a general guide, allow long enough for the indicator to confirm a full charge, and avoid vaping from the device while it charges, as it puts extra heat and strain on both the battery and the pod.

One more habit that helps: when you change a pod, it is a sensible moment to glance at the battery as well. Pairing the two in your routine means you rarely end up with a full pod and a dead device, or the reverse.

Coil technology inside a prefilled pod

Inside every prefilled pod is a coil, a small heating element wrapped in or backed by an absorbent wick. When you draw on the mouthpiece, the device senses the airflow and sends power to the coil, which heats the liquid held in the wick and turns it into vapour. The liquid is replenished from the reservoir by capillary action as you go. Because the coil is permanently part of the pod, a new pod always means a new coil, and that is the main practical advantage of the format: you never have to diagnose a worn coil, because you swap it out with every pod.

We do not state a coil resistance or name a specific mesh or round wire design for this pod, because the maker's listing does not give one, and we prefer to say so plainly rather than invent an ohm value. What we can say is how the main designs differ in general, so that you know what to expect from any prefilled pod:

• Mesh coils spread the heat across a wide, flat surface. They usually produce a quicker, more even vapour and a flavour that stays consistent through the pod.
• Round wire coils in a cotton or ceramic wick are simpler and often a bit crisper on flavour, but they can be more sensitive to how hard you draw.
• Higher resistance coils tend to suit nicotine salts at modest wattage and give a tight, mouth to lung style draw.

Since this is a nicotine salt pod, it is built for that style of use: a small, tight draw that you take into the mouth and then inhale, closer to the feel of a cigarette than to the large, airy clouds of a sub ohm tank. Salts use a gentler form of nicotine that goes down smoothly at higher strengths, which is why a 20mg salt can feel much less harsh than a freebase liquid of the same number.

Why do pods get replaced rather than topped up? Over time, sugars and sweeteners in fruit liquids caramelise slightly on the coil, and the wick can clog. Pods are made to be thrown away precisely so that you never meet that problem. If a flavour starts to taste muted or burnt before the liquid is gone, that is the coil telling you it has finished its job.

Treat a new pod gently. Let it sit upright for a few minutes after fitting so the wick can saturate, take two or three short, easy draws and then settle into your normal rhythm. Skipping that step is the usual cause of an early burnt taste, which is covered in the troubleshooting section below.

Choosing between 10mg and 20mg nicotine salt

Both strengths are offered on this product page, and choosing the right one matters more than any other decision you make about it. The figures describe milligrams of nicotine per millilitre of liquid. In plain terms, 10mg is 1 per cent and 20mg is 2 per cent. UK rules set the legal maximum at 20mg per millilitre, so 20mg is the top strength you can buy anywhere in the country, and it is the one that gives the strongest hit.

Nicotine salt is the form used here. It is absorbed in a way that feels smoother on the throat than traditional freebase nicotine, which is why salts are the norm in compact pod devices and why even the higher strength can feel gentle in the mouth. Do not mistake a soft throat feel for a low dose. A 20mg salt delivers a lot of nicotine very efficiently.

As a rough guide for adults who already use nicotine:

• 10mg suits lighter smokers, people who vape frequently throughout the day in small amounts, and anyone who has found 20mg too strong, headache inducing or too fast to finish a pod.
• 20mg suits heavier smokers and people coming from a full pack habit, who tend to find lower strengths leave them unsatisfied and reaching for the device constantly.

There is a trade off with pod life. A stronger salt satisfies you in fewer puffs, so a 20mg pod often lasts longer in practice than a 10mg one used by the same person, because you do not need to keep going back to it. A weaker one invites more frequent puffing. Which is cheaper per day depends on your habit, and it is worth paying attention to over your first week.

Signs that you have chosen too high a strength include dizziness, nausea, a racing heart, a harsh feeling at the back of the throat or a sense that you need to put the device down after a couple of puffs. If that happens, stop, drink some water and move to the lower strength next time. Signs it may be too low include constant puffing, cravings that return within minutes and chasing the pod harder than you wish to.

If you are unsure, begin with 10mg and move up only if it genuinely does not hold you. It is easier to step up than to recover from an unpleasant first experience. If you are pregnant, have a heart condition or any medical concern, talk to a doctor or pharmacist before using any nicotine product. Nicotine is addictive, and these pods are intended only for adults who already use it.

Who these pods suit, and who should look elsewhere

The Blackberry Raspberry pod is a sensible fit for a fairly specific group of adults, and it is better for everyone if we are clear about who they are.

A good match for:

• Adults who smoke and want a pocket sized vape in place of cigarettes, and who like a fruit flavour rather than tobacco or menthol.
• Owners of a Hayati Pro Max Plus 4000 device who have run through the pod that came with it and need a straightforward refill.
• People who prefer a sealed pod with no bottles, no spills and no coil changes.
• Anyone who values a flavour that is sweet but not sticky and that they will still enjoy by the end of the pod.
• Vapers who like to keep a small rotation of two or three flavours on the go.

Probably not the right choice for:

• Anyone under 18. It is illegal to sell nicotine products to under 18s in the UK, and this page is not written for them.
• Anyone who does not already use nicotine. These pods are not a casual novelty and should not be used by non-smokers.
• People who want cooling or menthol. Look at the Ice flavours in the same line instead.
• Those who want a refillable system with their own choice of liquid. A closed pod cannot be refilled.
• Owners of a different Hayati model or another brand. Check the device name before you order.
• Adults who are pregnant, breastfeeding or who have a heart condition, unless a medical professional has said otherwise.

It is also worth being clear about who the product is not aimed at in terms of expectations. If you expect a thick, dense cloud, this format will not give it to you. These are tight draw salt pods, and the intention is a discreet, convenient vape rather than a showpiece device. Equally, if you are looking for a cheap one off try to see whether you like vaping, remember that the pod needs a compatible device, so the true cost of entry includes the battery section.

For adults who smoke and are weighing up a change, many people find it easiest to switch completely rather than to use both side by side. We make no health claims about any product here. If you want proper support, your local stop smoking service or pharmacist can talk through the options available.

How to fit, use, store and recycle your pods

Using a closed pod takes seconds, but a few small habits make the difference between a pod that behaves well and one that leaks or tastes burnt.

• Step 1, check the device. Make sure the battery has some charge and that the pod bay is clean and dry.
• Step 2, unwrap the pod. Remove any film or cap from the mouthpiece and from the base contacts, as the packaging directs.
• Step 3, seat it fully. Push the pod straight into the bay until it clicks or sits flush. Do not twist it or force it at an angle.
• Step 4, let it settle. Wait two or three minutes with the device upright so the wick can take up liquid.
• Step 5, take gentle first draws. Two or three short puffs, then carry on as normal.
• Step 6, swap when it fades. When flavour thins or the taste turns toasted, remove the pod and fit a fresh one.

Storage matters more than most people realise. Keep spare pods upright, in their packaging, somewhere cool and out of direct sunlight, away from children and pets. Do not leave a loaded device loose in a bag where the mouthpiece can be pressed, as that is a common source of leaks. A pod that has been through a very hot or very cold spell should be left to return to room temperature before use.

Do not mix and match. Pods are designed for their own device. Forcing one into a model it was not made for can damage the contacts and, in the worst case, the battery.

When a pod is finished, it still contains a coil and a trace of liquid, so it should be treated as electrical waste and not dropped into the household bin. In the UK you have several options:

• Take used pods and old devices back to a shop that sells vapes. Retailers are expected to accept used vaping products for recycling.
• Use the electrical recycling bins at many supermarkets and household waste recycling centres.
• Check your local council website for collection points near you.

Never put a device or battery into general waste or ordinary recycling, because lithium batteries can start fires in bin lorries and sorting plants. If a device is damaged or swollen, tell the recycling site staff so that they can handle it safely.

Troubleshooting: when a pod is not behaving

Most pod problems have a simple cause. Work through these in order before deciding the pod is faulty.

• No vapour at all. Check the battery first. Then remove the pod and refit it, making sure it is pushed fully home. Wipe the contacts on the pod and in the bay with a dry cloth or cotton bud. If the pod is brand new and still dead, contact us with your order number.
• Weak or flat flavour. This is usually either a low battery or flavour fatigue. Charge the device, take a day off the flavour, and try again. If the pod has been in use for several days, it may simply be nearly finished.
• Burnt or toasted taste. Common causes are chain vaping, long hard draws, a pod that is nearly empty, or a new pod that was not given time to saturate. Rest the device, take shorter puffs, and swap the pod if the taste persists.
• Leaking. Wipe the pod and bay clean. Make sure the pod is fitted straight and fully seated. Keep the device upright, avoid heat, and do not squeeze the pod. If liquid keeps escaping from a fresh pod, stop using it and get in touch.
• Gurgling or crackling. A little liquid in the airway can cause this. Blow gently through the mouthpiece away from your face, or wipe the bay, and it should clear.
• Spitting hot liquid. That points to a flooded coil. Let the pod rest, take gentler draws and clear the airway.
• Device flashing without producing vapour. This can be a low battery, a poor contact or a protection feature. Charge it, clean the contacts and refit the pod. If the light pattern continues, consult the device guidance.
• Pod will not seat. Check you have the right model. A pod meant for another device will not sit properly, and forcing it risks damage.
• Strange smell. Stop using the pod and device immediately and contact us.

A final point on expectations. A sweet berry pod will leave a little residue on the mouthpiece and in the airway, which is normal, and a quick wipe each time you swap pods keeps things clean. A pod that behaves badly from the very first draw is more likely to be a manufacturing issue and should be reported. A pod that was fine for a few days and then fades is almost always just finished.

Keep the packaging, a note of the batch details if printed, and your order number if you need to raise a problem. Photos of the pod and the contacts speed things up considerably.

Value for money: the cost per pod and per day

At £6.99 per pod, with the same price across every flavour in the Pro Max Plus 4000 line, the maths is simple enough to do on the back of an envelope. We have already said that the 4000 puff rating describes the system and not a single 2ml pod, so the fairest way to judge cost is per day of use rather than per puff.

Using our rule of thumb of a couple of days for a heavy user and about a week for a light one, the cost works out as follows:

• Light use, about seven days per pod: roughly £1 a day.
• Moderate use, about four or five days per pod: roughly £1.40 to £1.75 a day.
• Heavy use, about three days per pod: roughly £2.33 a day.
• Very heavy use, about two days per pod: roughly £3.50 a day.

Those are estimates, not guarantees, and your own figure will depend on strength, draw style and how often you puff. They are a useful baseline, though, and for most adults they compare favourably with what a daily smoking habit costs in the UK, where a pack of twenty cigarettes now costs well over £10.

Where does the money go? Delivery is free over £20, and three pods come to £20.97, so a basket of three clears the threshold. That lets you try two berry flavours and one from a different family, or stock up on a single favourite. Ordering a few at once also protects you from running out at an awkward moment, which is a cost of its own.

Value is not only about the sticker price. A closed pod saves you the cost of bottles, spare coils and any wastage that comes with refilling. It saves time, too, and it avoids the spills that come with filling a small tank. Against that, you pay a premium per millilitre for the convenience, and the pod is a fixed size and cannot be topped up.

The surest way to protect your money is to buy the right strength and flavour the first time. A pod you dislike or cannot finish is wasted. If you are uncertain about strength, start lower. If you are uncertain about flavour, pair two different styles in the same order so that you learn quickly what works for you, and then buy more of that one.

And because this is a genuine product from a proper supply chain, you are not paying for the risk that comes with unknown stock. Every pod we sell is genuine.

How these pods compare with the alternatives, fairly

No format wins on every count, so here is a straightforward comparison with the other ways adults in the UK vape. Where something else does a job better, we say so.

Against refillable pod kits. Refillable systems, such as the Aspire Gotek X pods we also stock, let you fill the pod from a 10ml bottle of your choice. The per millilitre cost is usually lower and the choice of flavours is far wider. The trade off is effort: you fill, you manage spills, and you have to look after coils. Prefilled pods like this one are quicker, cleaner and more predictable. If you vape a lot and enjoy tinkering, refillable will save money. If you want the least fuss, prefilled wins.

Against other closed pod systems. Several other brands, including Vuse and Elf Bar's pod kits, work on the same principle: a rechargeable device and a swappable sealed pod. The experience is broadly similar, and the real differences lie in the device, the available flavours and the price of pods. Hayati's strength is its range, with more than two dozen flavours in this line alone, all at one price. Where a rival may have the edge is in a particular device's draw feel or battery size, which you would need to judge for yourself. Pods from different systems do not interchange, so the decision is really about which system you commit to.

Against the Pro Max Plus 6000 pods. The 6000 line carries a higher puff rating and a different price. It is a separate product line, so choose the one that matches your device. Do not assume a higher number means a bigger pod, since UK law caps every nicotine pod at 2ml.

Against old style single use vapes. Those are no longer legal to sell in Great Britain. Compared with them, a pod system is more cost effective over time, produces less waste per puff and lets you keep the battery. A single use device was easier on day one, but that is a poor reason to want a banned format back.

Against nicotine pouches, gum or patches. These deliver nicotine with no inhalation at all. They suit people who cannot vape in a given setting, and they never need charging. What they do not offer is the hand to mouth ritual or the flavour variety of a vape. Many adults use both, depending on where they are.

In short, this pod is a convenient, mid range choice for an existing Pro Max Plus 4000 owner and a solid way to enjoy a berry flavour without maintenance. It is not the cheapest way to vape, nor the most customisable, and it is honest to say so.

Delivery across the UK is free over £20, with dispatch before 4pm, and everything we sell is 100% genuine stock.
