Hyola Pro Max 8000 Refill Pack Blue Raz Gummy Bear: overview and what is in the pack

The Hyola Pro Max 8000 Refill Pack in Blue Raz Gummy Bear is a pack of replacement pods for the Hyola Pro Max pod device. It pairs a blue raspberry and gummy bear candy flavour with a pre-filled, plug-in pod format, so there is no bottle to open, no coil to prime by hand and no tank to rinse. You pull out the spent pod, press in a fresh one and carry on. For adults who want a simple vape with less waste than a throwaway device, that quick swap is the main appeal.

This page is written for UK buyers. It covers what the refill pack is, what you need to use it, how the flavour behaves, how long a pod realistically lasts and where it sits against other pod systems. We have tried to stay practical and honest, including about the puff count printed on the box, because the headline number tells you less than the pod size, the nicotine strength and your own habits do.

Here is the short version of what you are buying:

• Product type: pre-filled replacement pods. This is a refill pack, not a complete device.
• Brand and range: Hyola, Pro Max 8000 series.
• Flavour: Blue Raz Gummy Bear, a sweet blue raspberry candy profile.
• Headline claim: 8000 puffs, which is the manufacturer's marketing figure for the range.
• Pod capacity: pods sold in the UK are limited to 2ml of e-liquid, so expect a 2ml fill per pod.
• Nicotine: the UK maximum is 20mg/ml (2%). Pick the strength variant shown on the listing.
• Power: the pods contain no battery. Power comes from your rechargeable Hyola Pro Max device.

A refill pack contains pods only. Before you order, check the listing and the packaging for the exact number of pods in the pack, because that number, together with the 2ml fill, is a far better guide to how much vaping you are getting than the puff figure alone. The pods need a compatible Hyola Pro Max device to work. They are not interchangeable with other brands' pods, and you should never force a pod into a device that does not accept it with light pressure.

You must be 18 or over to buy or use nicotine vapes in the UK. Vaping products are intended for adult smokers and existing vapers. If you do not smoke or vape already, they are not for you. Nicotine is addictive, and the pack carries the legally required health warning. Each pod is factory sealed, and you should check the seal on arrival. If a pod looks damaged or has liquid on the outside of the packaging, contact us before you use it.

Blue Raz Gummy Bear flavour profile

Blue raspberry is a confectionery flavour rather than a literal fruit. It is the tangy, sweet, slightly sharp taste you find in fizzy sweets, slush drinks and ice lollies. Gummy bear is the other half of the name, and it brings a chewy, sugary, lightly fruity sweetness that rounds the sharpness off. Put together, Blue Raz Gummy Bear is a sweet-shop style flavour. It is aimed at vapers who like candy and fruit profiles and who found tobacco or menthol flavours dull.

On the inhale, expect the blue raspberry to lead. It tends to arrive as a bright, tangy sweetness near the front of the tongue, with a faint tartness that stops it feeling flat. On the exhale, the gummy character takes over. The aftertaste is soft, sugary and a little syrupy, closer to a bag of mixed sweets than to a fresh raspberry. Nothing about the name suggests added menthol or icy cooling, so this reads as a warm, sweet fruit flavour rather than a cold one. If you want that icy finish, look at the ice variants elsewhere in the range instead.

A few practical points about how a sweet flavour like this behaves over the life of a pod:

• First few puffs: the cotton is still saturating, so the flavour can seem muted. Give it a minute and a few gentle draws before judging it.
• Middle of the pod: this is where the flavour is at its most consistent, with a clear raspberry front and a candy finish.
• Last third: as the liquid level drops, flavour can thin out. If you notice a toasted or burnt note, the wick is running low and it is time to swap the pod.

Sweet profiles are heavier on sweeteners than fruit or tobacco styles, and sweeteners can build up on a coil as they heat. That is one reason pod systems suit sweet flavours well: the coil is thrown away with the pod, so you do not live with the residue for weeks the way you would with a refillable tank.

Vapers often notice flavour fatigue, sometimes called vaper's tongue, after several days on the same sweet flavour. If everything starts to taste a bit bland, switch to a different flavour for a day or two, drink some water and come back. It is a sensory effect rather than a fault with the pod.

Performance and puff delivery

The 8000 in the name is a puff count, and it deserves a careful read. Puff counts on vape packaging are manufacturer estimates, not measured guarantees, and there is no standard test that every brand follows. The number is also hard to reconcile with UK rules. Because pods sold in the UK may hold no more than 2ml of e-liquid, a single pod cannot realistically deliver thousands of puffs. A typical puff uses somewhere between 0.002ml and 0.004ml of liquid, which puts a 2ml pod in the region of 500 to 1,000 puffs in real use, depending on how you draw.

So how should you read 8000? The sensible approach is to treat it as a headline for the range, or for the pack as a whole, and to judge value by the following:

• Millilitres in total: multiply the number of pods in the pack by 2ml.
• Your own puff length: long, slow draws use more liquid than short ones.
• Nicotine strength: lower strengths tend to be vaped more often, so a pod can empty sooner.
• Device settings: if your Hyola Pro Max has a power or mode option, a higher setting heats the liquid faster and uses it faster.

As a rough guide, a light vaper may take two or three days to finish a 2ml pod. A moderate vaper, someone replacing a pack of cigarettes a day, is more likely to use a pod in a day or less. We say this so your expectations match reality. Anyone who tells you that one small pod will last a month is not being straight with you.

On delivery, pod devices of this kind are built around a restrictive, mouth-to-lung draw. That means a fairly tight pull that feels closer to drawing on a cigarette than to the open, airy draw of a sub-ohm tank. Vapour production is moderate rather than cloud-heavy, and throat hit depends mostly on the nicotine strength you choose. Higher strengths give a firmer hit at the back of the throat, while lower strengths feel smoother.

Consistency matters more than peak output with a pod. A good pod gives you the same flavour and vapour on puff fifty as on puff five. With a mesh coil and a sealed pod, that is generally what you can expect until the liquid runs low. Chain vaping, meaning taking puff after puff with no gap, can overheat the coil and shorten the pod's life, so a short pause between draws gives a better result and a longer-lasting pod.

Mesh coil technology inside the pod

Each pod has its own built-in coil, and in this class of product that coil is normally a mesh coil. A traditional coil is a thin wire wound into a spiral. A mesh coil is a small flat sheet of fine metal gauze, usually a stainless steel alloy, rolled or folded against the cotton wick. The difference matters because the mesh has a much larger surface area in contact with the cotton.

That larger contact area brings a few real benefits:

• Even heating: the liquid is vaporised over a wider area, so there are fewer hot spots and less chance of a harsh or scorched hit.
• Faster response: mesh reaches working temperature quickly, so the vapour appears soon after you start to draw.
• Better flavour definition: because the temperature stays steadier, layered flavours such as a tangy raspberry over a gummy sweetness come through more clearly.
• Good wicking: the broad surface pulls liquid through the cotton evenly, which reduces dry hits when you are drawing normally.

Coils in mouth-to-lung pods usually sit at a fairly low-to-moderate resistance, often somewhere around 0.8 to 1.2 ohms, paired with a battery output in the low-power range. We have not been given a published resistance figure for this exact pod, so check the packaging or the manufacturer's leaflet if you need it. For most buyers the number does not change how you use the product.

There are limits to be honest about. A mesh coil does not last forever, and its life is tied to the pod. Sweet e-liquids leave more residue on the coil, so the flavour of the last stretch of a pod can be less crisp than the first. If you vape continuously, the coil can dry out faster than the cotton can refill it, which causes a burnt taste. The fix is simple: slow down, take shorter draws and give the wick a moment between puffs.

Since the coil is sealed inside a single-use pod, you do not need to prime coils, change heads or learn about wicking. That is a major reason people choose pod refills over refillable tanks. You trade away control and some cost efficiency, and you gain simplicity and consistency in return.

Pod design and build quality

The pod is the part you handle most, so its build matters. Pods in this category are moulded from a durable plastic, usually a clear or lightly tinted polymer, with a window or transparent section so you can see how much liquid is left. A sealed fill port, silicone gaskets and a small mouthpiece complete the assembly. When the pod is in good condition, nothing should wobble, rattle or feel loose.

Here is what to look for when your pack arrives:

• Seal and packaging: the pods should be sealed, with no liquid on the outside of the pack or the pod.
• Mouthpiece: it should sit flush and feel firmly attached, with no cracks around the edge.
• Contacts: the connecting points at the base should be clean and free of residue. Wipe them lightly with a dry cloth if needed.
• Liquid level: a fresh pod should look full or very nearly full through the window.

Fit is another point to check. A pod should push into the device with light, even pressure and seat firmly, often with a gentle click or magnetic pull. If you feel resistance, stop, check you have it the right way round and try again. Forcing a pod can crack the connection or squeeze liquid into the airflow channel, which causes gurgling and leaks.

Leaks are the usual complaint with any pod system, and most are down to handling rather than manufacturing. Pressure changes, such as those in an aeroplane cabin, can push liquid out of a pod, as can heat and being stored on its side. To keep leaks down, store the device upright, avoid leaving it in a hot car or in direct sunlight, and take the pod out before long journeys or flights if you can.

Do not try to refill the pod. These are pre-filled, single-use consumables, and the fill port is sealed on purpose. Opening one voids the point of the design, risks leaks and can damage the coil. When a pod is empty, replace it and recycle the old one using the guidance later on this page.

Overall, expect a plain, functional build that does the job of holding 2ml of liquid and a coil in a pocket-sized shape. The pod is not a showpiece. Its job is to be easy to swap and unlikely to leak when it is looked after.

Battery and charging with the Hyola Pro Max device

This is a refill pack, so the pods themselves have no battery and cannot be charged. Everything electrical lives in the Hyola Pro Max device. Rechargeable pod devices in this class commonly carry a lithium-ion battery somewhere in the 500 to 900mAh range, though you should check the specification printed on your own device or its box, because we do not want to state a figure that may not match your unit.

As a rule of thumb, one full charge on a battery of that size will usually get through somewhere between one and two pods of vaping, depending on how often and how hard you draw. Heavier users should expect to charge once a day. Lighter users may go two or three days between charges.

Charging a device like this is straightforward:

• Port: most modern pod devices use USB-C. Use the cable supplied, or a good quality replacement.
• Power source: a standard 5V phone charger, a laptop USB port or a power bank all work. Avoid unbranded, very high-output chargers.
• Indicator light: the LED usually changes colour or turns off when charging is complete. Check your device's guide for its exact signals.
• Time: a full charge typically takes under an hour or two for a battery of this size.

Good battery habits protect both the device and you. Do not charge on a bed, sofa or any soft surface where heat can build up. Do not leave a device charging unattended overnight. Unplug it once it is full, and do not vape while it is plugged in, because that puts strain on the battery and cable. Keep the device out of heat and away from keys and coins in a pocket, which can cause short circuits.

If the battery swells, becomes unusually hot, smells strange or the casing is damaged, stop using the device immediately. Do not charge it. Take it to a household waste recycling point or a retailer that accepts electrical waste, and do not put it in the household bin, since lithium-ion batteries can start fires in bin lorries and recycling plants.

If the device does not respond at all, check the pod is seated properly and the device is charged before assuming either part is faulty. A pod that is not making contact is the most common reason for a device that appears dead.

Nicotine strength guidance

The most important choice on this page is the nicotine strength. In the UK, nicotine-containing vaping liquid is capped at 20mg/ml, which is the same as 2%. That limit applies across the legal market, including pods and the single-use devices that used to dominate it. Choose the strength variant listed on the product page, and do not assume that every flavour is available in every strength.

Nicotine strength is easier to understand if you think in terms of your current habit:

• 20mg/ml (2%): usually the choice for adults who smoke around ten or more cigarettes a day, or who light their first cigarette soon after waking. It delivers a firm throat hit and quickly satisfies cravings.
• 10 to 12mg/ml (1 to 1.2%): a middle option for lighter smokers, or for people who find 20mg harsh. It is smoother, but you may find you vape more often.
• 3 to 6mg/ml: aimed at people who have already reduced their nicotine intake and want to step down further.
• 0mg/ml: nicotine-free. Some people use it as a final step before stopping vaping.

Most pre-filled pod liquids use nicotine salts. Nicotine salts feel smoother at higher strengths than the freebase nicotine in older style e-liquids, which is why a 20mg pod can feel gentler than you would expect. It is still a strong nicotine product, so if you have never smoked or have a low tolerance, 20mg is not the place to start.

A few warning signs suggest your strength is too high: dizziness, nausea, a racing heart, headaches or a harsh cough on every puff. If that happens, stop, drink some water and move to a lower strength next time. If you find you are chaining pods or constantly craving, the strength may be too low and you may be vaping more than you need to.

Many people use vaping to quit smoking, and stepping down gradually works for some. The NHS and local stop smoking services offer free support and can combine vaping with other aids. This page is general information, not medical advice. If you are pregnant, have a heart condition or take regular medication, speak to your GP or pharmacist before using any nicotine product. If you do not smoke, do not start.

Who the Hyola Pro Max refill pack is for

Every product suits some people and not others. This section is meant to help you decide quickly whether this refill pack fits your situation, instead of finding out after you have paid.

The pack is likely to suit you if:

• You are an adult smoker moving to vaping: a draw that resembles a cigarette and a straightforward routine make switching easier.
• You are moving on from disposables: since the sale of single-use vapes was banned in the UK on 1 June 2025, many people have needed a rechargeable alternative that still feels simple. Swapping a pod is close to that experience, with less waste.
• You like sweet fruit and candy flavours: Blue Raz Gummy Bear is firmly in that camp.
• You want low maintenance: no bottles, no coil changes and no spills.
• You already own a Hyola Pro Max device: this is the straightforward way to keep it running.

It may not suit you if:

• You do not smoke or vape: nicotine products are for adult smokers and existing vapers only. They are not for young people or for anyone who has never used nicotine.
• You want big clouds or adjustable power: a restrictive mouth-to-lung pod device is not built for that. A sub-ohm kit would suit you better.
• Cost per millilitre is your priority: bottled e-liquid in a refillable kit is almost always cheaper per ml than pre-filled pods. You pay extra for convenience.
• You prefer tobacco or menthol flavours: this is a sweet profile, and you would be happier with a different variant.
• You do not own the matching device: without the Hyola Pro Max device the pods do nothing, so buy that first or alongside.

Anyone under 18 must not buy or use these products, and an adult should never buy them on behalf of a minor. It is an offence to supply nicotine vapes to under-18s. We are required to carry out age checks, and delivery couriers may ask for proof of age.

If you are on the fence, the simplest test is to ask whether you want maximum simplicity and sweet flavour, or lowest cost and most control. This pack serves the first group well.

How to use the pods: fitting, priming and vaping

Using a pod device is simple, but a few habits make a real difference to flavour, leaks and pod life. Follow these steps with your first pod and the routine will soon become automatic.

• 1. Charge the device: start with a reasonably charged battery so you are not troubleshooting a low-power device and a new pod at the same time.
• 2. Open the pack: take out one pod and check that it is intact and the seal is unbroken. Remove any protective cap or film covering the mouthpiece or base, as described on the packaging.
• 3. Fit the pod: line it up with the device and press it in gently until it seats firmly. Do not twist or force it.
• 4. Let it rest: wait a minute or two so the cotton wick can absorb liquid. This single step prevents most dry hits on a new pod.
• 5. Take gentle first draws: use slow, light pulls of two to three seconds for the first few puffs. Pause between them.
• 6. Settle into your pattern: draw for two to four seconds at a steady pace. Leave twenty to thirty seconds between puffs if you can.
• 7. Check the level: look through the window from time to time. When the liquid is low or the flavour turns harsh, replace the pod.
• 8. Swap and dispose: pull out the empty pod, fit a fresh one and recycle the old pod. See the recycling notes further down.

Some devices are draw-activated, which means they fire when you inhale. Others have a button. Check your device's guide, because holding a button down for too long on a button-activated model overheats the coil. Draw-activated models are less prone to this.

Store the device upright when you are not using it. Keep spare pods in their packaging, somewhere cool and dry, out of direct sunlight and away from children and pets. Nicotine liquid is hazardous if swallowed or if it gets on the skin or in the eyes. If a pod leaks onto your hands, wash them with soap and water. If liquid gets in your eyes or is swallowed, seek medical advice straight away.

Finally, remember that you can change flavours between pods as often as you like. If you want to try a different flavour from the same range, finish or remove the current pod, fit the new one and give it the same one-to-two-minute rest.

Troubleshooting common problems

Most pod issues have a simple cause and a simple fix. Work through the checks below before deciding that something is faulty.

• No vapour, device does not respond: remove the pod and refit it, making sure it clicks into place. Check the contacts at the base are clean. Charge the device if the battery might be flat.
• Flashing LED: a flashing light usually signals low battery or a connection problem. The exact pattern varies, so check the leaflet. Charge the device and reseat the pod.
• Dry or weak hit on a new pod: the wick has probably not absorbed enough liquid. Wait two minutes and take a few slow, gentle draws without long pulls.
• Burnt taste: this almost always means the wick is running dry, either because the pod is nearly empty or because you are vaping too quickly. Replace the pod. If a new pod tastes burnt, rest it longer and slow your draw.
• Gurgling or spitting: there may be condensation or excess liquid in the airflow channel. Remove the pod, tap the mouthpiece gently on a tissue and blow lightly through the mouthpiece to clear it.
• Leaking: check the pod is seated properly and is not cracked. Wipe it clean, store the device upright and keep it away from heat. If a pod leaks repeatedly out of the box, stop using it and contact us.
• Fading flavour: this often comes from flavour fatigue or from coil residue near the end of a pod. Try another flavour for a day, or swap in a fresh pod.
• Device not charging: try another cable and another power source, and check the charging port for lint or debris. Avoid using sharp metal objects to clean it.
• Device feels hot: stop vaping and unplug it. Let it cool completely in a safe place. If it overheats again, do not use it and contact us or the manufacturer.
• Harsh throat hit or cough: your nicotine strength may be too high, or your draw too long. Try shorter, gentler pulls, and consider a lower strength next time.

If you have worked through these steps and a pod or device still does not behave, keep the packaging, note your order number and get in touch. Photographs of the problem and the batch information on the pack help us sort out replacements quickly. We would rather hear about an issue than have you put up with a poor experience.

Value for money and how it compares

Value with pods comes down to cost per millilitre, cost per day and how much convenience matters to you. Because puff counts are marketing estimates, the more reliable way to compare is to take the price of the pack, divide it by the number of pods to get a price per pod, and then divide that by two to get an approximate price per millilitre. Do the same with the alternatives and the picture becomes clear.

Here is a fair look at how the options stack up:

• Versus bottled e-liquid in a refillable kit: refilling from bottles costs much less per millilitre, often a fraction of the pod price. It also takes more effort, involves coil changes and carries more risk of spills. If you vape heavily and enjoy the process, a refillable kit saves real money. If you want to do nothing but swap and vape, pods win on convenience.
• Versus established pod systems such as Vuse ePod, Elfa or Oxva Xlim prefilled pods: longer-running names generally have wider shop availability, larger flavour ranges and more years of user feedback. Hyola is less widely recognised, so you lean more on the retailer's returns policy and on reading real reviews. On the other side, a range built around candy and fruit flavours may suit you better than a brand focused on tobacco and menthol.
• Versus the single-use vapes that used to be common: disposables are no longer legally on sale in the UK. A rechargeable device with swappable pods is closer to what you probably used before than any other option, and it produces less waste per puff.
• Versus nicotine pouches and other alternatives: pouches are smoke-free and vapour-free but are a different experience, with no inhale or hand-to-mouth habit. They work for some switchers and not for others.

The value of this pack is therefore best judged on three questions. Do you already own the device, so you are only paying for pods? Do you like the flavour enough to vape it all day? And is the convenience worth paying more per millilitre than bottled liquid? If you can answer yes to all three, it is reasonable value. If you are mainly trying to spend as little as possible, a refillable kit will serve you better.

One more thing on cost: buy only as many packs as you will realistically use. Flavours are personal, and you may find after a few days that Blue Raz Gummy Bear is not for you. Start with a pack, and then stock up once you are sure.

UK rules, safe storage and recycling

Vaping products sold in the UK must meet a set of legal requirements, and knowing them helps you spot a product that does not belong on the shelf. Nicotine strength is capped at 20mg/ml. Pods and tanks are limited to 2ml. Refill bottles are limited to 10ml. Packaging has to carry a nicotine health warning, a list of ingredients and the manufacturer's contact details. Products must also be notified to the regulator before they are sold. If a pack lacks these details or looks unusual, do not use it.

The sale of single-use disposable vapes has been prohibited in the UK since 1 June 2025. Rechargeable devices with replaceable pods, like the Hyola Pro Max system, are a different category and remain on sale. Selling to anyone under 18 is illegal, and proxy purchasing for a minor is also an offence.

Safe storage is simple and worth taking seriously:

• Keep pods, packs and devices out of reach of children and pets.
• Store them somewhere cool and dry, away from direct sunlight and heat sources.
• Keep pods in their original packaging until you are ready to use them.
• Never leave a charging device unattended and never charge it on a soft surface.

Recycling matters because a used pod contains plastic, a small coil and residual liquid, and the device contains a lithium-ion battery. None of these belongs in your household bin or recycling box. Instead:

• Empty pods: take them to a vape shop or other retailer that offers take-back, or to a household waste recycling centre with a small electricals or vape recycling point. Many UK retailers that sell vaping products are required to accept used vapes for recycling, so ask at the counter.
• Devices and batteries: use the same drop-off points or a council recycling centre that takes small electrical items (WEEE). Look for the crossed-out wheelie bin symbol.
• Damaged batteries: do not post them or put them in a bin. Take them to a household waste recycling centre and tell staff what they are.

Recycling is a small habit that keeps lithium batteries out of bin lorries and stops plastic and metal being wasted. Please make it part of your routine each time you swap a pod.
