IVG Pro 12 Starter Kit Banana Ice: what you are buying

IVG Pro 12 Starter Kit Banana Ice is a prefilled pod kit built for adults who want a proper reusable device without the setup work that usually comes with one, and it lists at £7.99 with a BUY 3 FOR £23 offer attached. It is rated at 10,000 puffs, uses nicotine salt liquid, and is available in 10mg and 20mg.

The word starter in the name is the clue to who this is for. A starter kit bundles the device and the prefilled pod together so that the thing you unbox is the thing you use. There is no bottle to buy, no coil to prime, no wattage to set and no wick to soak. You take it out, you vape it, and when the pod is finished you fit another one instead of throwing the hardware away.

• Flavour: Banana Ice
• Format: prefilled pod starter kit, nicotine salt
• Rated puffs: 10,000
• Strengths: 10mg and 20mg
• Price: £7.99, or BUY 3 FOR £23

IVG is by some distance our largest single brand, with 540 products listed on the IVG collection page, and the Pro 12 line alone runs to 24 flavours. Sold to adults aged 18+ only.

Why a starter kit beats picking parts

Anyone who has tried to move from disposables to a reusable setup knows the failure point. You buy a device, then discover you also need liquid, then discover the liquid you bought is the wrong nicotine type for that device, then discover the coil needs replacing and nobody told you. A meaningful number of people give up at that stage and go back to bars, not because the reusable option was worse but because the entry path was badly designed.

A prefilled starter kit removes every one of those decision points. The pod arrives sealed and filled, matched to the device by the manufacturer, at a nicotine strength you chose at checkout. The only ongoing decision is which flavour to fit next. That is roughly the same cognitive load as buying a disposable, with the difference that you keep the battery.

The trade-off, and it is worth stating plainly, is flexibility. Prefilled pods mean you are choosing from the flavours IVG makes rather than from every liquid on the market. For most people that is a fair swap, especially when the range runs to two dozen options. If you would rather have total flavour freedom and do not mind refilling, that is a different product category entirely. Our starter vape kits section carries both approaches so you can see the two side by side before committing.

Banana Ice as IVG blend it

IVG built its reputation on flavour work, and Banana Ice is a useful test of that because banana is unforgiving. Push the sweetness and it turns into foam sweets. Push the ripeness and it goes sour and medicinal. The target is the short window in between where it reads as fresh fruit with a soft, rounded body.

The IVG interpretation leans smooth rather than sugary. The banana is present from the first fraction of the draw and holds a consistent weight through the middle, and then the menthol layer arrives late and lifts everything. That late arrival is deliberate. If the cooling came in early it would numb the fruit before you tasted it. Coming in at the end, it clears the palate so the next draw starts fresh instead of building up.

In terms of daily use, this is one of the more forgiving profiles to live with. It does not clash with coffee the way sharp citrus can, it holds up after food when heavier dessert flavours become unappealing, and it stays pleasant in hot weather because of the cold finish. Those are unglamorous qualities and they are exactly what matters in a flavour you are going to use for days rather than minutes.

If banana is the note you keep returning to, it is worth seeing how other houses handle it across our banana flavour range, which spans banana ice, banana split and strawberry banana blends.

Picking your nicotine level

The kit comes in 10mg and 20mg and the flavour is identical in both, so this is a nicotine decision alone. 20mg is the maximum permitted in the UK and is what disposables and most prefilled pods use as standard. If you are arriving here from bars, 20mg keeps everything consistent and you are unlikely to notice any change beyond the hardware.

10mg exists for two reasons. Some adults simply find full strength too sharp against the throat, particularly on a menthol blend where the cooling and the nicotine bite reinforce one another. Others are consciously reducing, and half strength in the same device with the same flavour is the least disruptive way to do that, because the only variable you have changed is the number.

A word of caution that applies to every iced flavour. Menthol masks harshness, so a strong iced pod can feel gentler than it is. Judging your intake by how rough it feels is unreliable here. A better measure is simply how often you are picking the device up compared with last week.

There is no way to mix or dilute a prefilled pod, so whichever strength you order is what you get for the life of that pod. If you are genuinely unsure, ordering one of each within the multibuy costs nothing extra and answers the question in a few days of real use.

Living with a 10,000 puff rating

A 10,000 puff rating puts this kit in the big puff tier, which is now where most of the UK market sits. It is worth knowing how that number is produced. Manufacturers measure puff counts using machines taking short, uniform draws under fixed conditions. Humans are far less consistent. Long, hard pulls consume liquid and battery faster, so a heavy vaper will land well under the rating and a light one will get closer to it.

Under UK law no single prefilled pod may hold more than 2ml of liquid, so a five figure rating is never one enormous reservoir. It is the total across the pods that come with the kit, which is why the ratings and the pod format have to be read together rather than separately.

What the number is genuinely good for is relative comparison. Against the 2,400 and 4,000 rated products that dominated a couple of years ago, a 10,000 rating means fewer changeovers and fewer trips to restock. Against the very largest systems now on sale it is mid-table. If you want to browse purely by that tier, the 10,000 puff vapes collection filters the catalogue down to products in this bracket, and the broader big puff vape kits page covers the whole high capacity end.

One habit worth adopting: note roughly when you fit a pod. After two or three you will know your own real world figure, which is far more useful than any number printed on a box.

The buy 3 for £23 offer, honestly assessed

Three kits at the single price of £7.99 would come to £23.97. The multibuy brings that to £23 flat, so the saving is 97p and the effective price is £7.67 each. We would rather tell you that plainly than dress it up: the headline value here is not the discount, it is the format.

Where the offer does earn its place is in encouraging you to buy a flavour spread rather than three of the same. The Pro 12 line runs to 24 flavours, and the difference between having one flavour and having three is significant if you use a device all day. Palate fatigue is real. The same taste for eight hours stops registering, and the usual response is to vape more rather than to notice the flavour has faded. Rotating between something creamy like Banana Ice, something sharp such as Fizzy Cherry or Lemon Lime, and something cold like Classic Menthol keeps each one distinct.

The other reason to take three is simple continuity. Running out at ten in the evening is how people end up buying whatever the nearest shop has on the shelf, which is usually more expensive and rarely the flavour they wanted. Three in the house removes that scenario for a few weeks at a time. Three units also clears the £20 threshold for free UK delivery on its own, which is worth more than the 97p in most baskets.

Where the rest of the IVG range fits

With 540 products, IVG covers almost every format in the shop, and knowing what sits either side of this kit helps you decide whether you have chosen the right rung of the ladder.

Below it, the IVG 2400 rechargeable kits at £6.99 are the smaller, cheaper entry point. They use the same prefilled principle with a lower capacity, which suits lighter vapers or anyone who wants to test the brand before committing. The 2400 Banana Edition is the closest match to what you are looking at here, and if you want to sample the brand's flavour work more broadly, Blue Raspberry Ice and the Cherry Edition represent two very different corners of the catalogue.

Above it, IVG runs higher capacity pod systems for people who want longer between pod changes and are willing to pay more per unit for it. Those are worth a look if you find yourself changing pods more often than you would like.

Alongside all of that, IVG produces bottled e-liquid, which is the route to take if you eventually decide you want to refill rather than replace. Many long-term customers end up running a prefilled kit for convenience and a refillable device at home for cost, and there is no reason to treat those as competing choices.

Care, common problems and getting it delivered

These kits are close to maintenance free, but a handful of things account for almost every complaint we hear.

• Weak or faint flavour: usually a pod nearing the end of its life, or liquid residue on the contacts. Wipe both surfaces dry and reseat the pod before assuming it has failed
• Harsh first draws on a new pod: fit it, leave it a couple of minutes, then start with gentle pulls rather than a long hard one
• Device feels unresponsive: charge it fully before troubleshooting anything else, since low power affects flavour before it stops the device working
• Cooling has faded: menthol is the first element heat destroys, so check whether the pod has been stored somewhere warm

Store spare pods sealed, upright and out of direct sunlight, and never leave the device in a hot car. Charge with a good quality cable and do not leave it charging unattended overnight.

On ordering, every product we sell is 100 percent genuine and sourced through proper UK channels, which matters in a market where counterfeit hardware is the main safety risk. Free UK shipping starts at £20 of basket value, and anything ordered before 4pm on a working day goes out that same day. Age verification applies to every nicotine order. This product is strictly for adults aged 18+ and is not suitable for non-smokers, non-vapers, anyone under 18, or anyone pregnant or breastfeeding.

The rest of the line, if you want to compare before choosing.

• Blue Razz Retro

Two on the go beats one, because alternating keeps both tasting fresher.

Buying this as a first purchase

If this is your first order with us, a few things are worth knowing before you commit.

1. Format. A prefilled pod is the no-mess option. Bottled e-liquid costs less per millilitre if you do not mind refilling.
2. Strength. This comes in 10mg and 20mg. Heavier former smokers usually start high and step down.
3. Flavour. You are looking at Banana Ice. Pick a second from a different family so you have something to rotate to.

Beyond that, it is down to taste rather than technique. The deals page is the cheapest way to try more than one at a time.

Looking after it, and what goes wrong

A short list of habits prevents nearly every common problem.

• Prime before the first draw. Click the pod in and leave it a minute. Drawing on a dry wick is what causes that scorched first hit.
• Keep it cool and upright. Heat thins liquid and pushes it through seals, which is why a hot car is the usual cause of a leak.
• Muted flavour is often you, not it. Palate fatigue is common on a single flavour, and rotating to a second profile resets it.
• Store away from children and pets, and recycle spent hardware rather than binning it loose.

Do those four things and most of the usual problems never appear.

Delivery, returns and buying with confidence

Here is what happens after you order. Weekday orders placed before 4pm are dispatched the same day, and UK delivery is free once your basket reaches £20.00. Tracked options are shown at checkout.

Opened consumables are not returnable, which is standard for the category. Faults and picking errors are resolved without argument. Sales are strictly 18+ and every order is age-verified before dispatch.

Nicotine is highly addictive, and nothing here is intended for non-smokers.

Where IVG fits in the wider market

It helps to know whether a brand is a hardware house or a flavour house. We list 540 IVG products, which puts it among the largest ranges we carry. The complete list is on the IVG page.

More products does not mean more quality. What it does give you is somewhere to go when you want a change without gambling on an unfamiliar name. Brands that make both hardware and liquid tend to design them to work together, which is why pods from one family rarely fit another. Brands that only make liquid put their effort into flavour development instead, and often outperform the hardware houses on taste alone.

The takeaway is straightforward. Once you find a brand whose profiles suit your palate, its other lines are a far safer bet than a random product at the same price. That is worth more than it sounds in a category where you cannot try before you buy. The full category runs to 150 products if you would rather compare across brands than within one.

Building a rotation instead of buying one thing

Nearly everyone who vapes daily ends up running two or three flavours rather than one, and there is a reason for it. Palate fatigue sets in faster than people expect. A profile you loved on day one can taste flat by day ten, not because the product changed but because your palate stopped noticing it.

The solution is simply how you buy. Keep two profiles from genuinely different families on the go, and alternate between them. Something sweet paired with something sharp, or a fruit paired with a menthol, resets the palate each time you switch. Two flavours in rotation will each last noticeably longer than either would alone.

The same range gives you obvious partners:

• Pineapple Tropic
• Blueberry Mint
• Fizzy Cherry
• Strawberry Ice
• Cherry Ice
• Blue Sour Raspberry

The buy 3 for £23 offer exists precisely for this, and it can be mixed across flavours rather than spent on one.
