Nice clean hit
Really pleased with the order overall. Everything arrived as expected, well packed, fast dispatch.
UwellThe Uwell Viscore 8000 Puffs Pod Kit Fruit Mix 40K Puffs by Uwell delivers up to 8,000 puffs in Fruit Mix - 40K Puffs at 10mg and 20mg. Free UK delivery over £20, same-day dispatch on weekday orders before 4pm.
The Uwell Viscore 8000 Puffs Pod Kit in Fruit Mix is a rechargeable, prefilled pod device priced at £9.49. It arrives ready to use. The e-liquid is already sealed inside the pod, the pod is built to sit on the battery section, and there is no bottle, funnel or fill port anywhere in the process. You pick a strength, either 10mg or 20mg nicotine salt, add it to your basket, and that is the only decision this listing asks of you.
Uwell is a name most UK adult vapers know from its refillable hardware, particularly the Caliburn family of pod systems. The Viscore line takes a different route. Instead of asking you to fill a pod and swap coils, it hands you a sealed unit where the liquid and the coil have been matched at the factory. If you have ever fumbled a bottle on a train, or ended up with sticky fingers after a leaky refill, you can see the appeal. The rest of the maker's catalogue, 52 products at the time of writing, sits on our Uwell collection.
This kit belongs to the big-puff category, which simply means the manufacturer rates it at 8,000 puffs. That rating is picked apart in the next section, but the short version is that it is a comparison figure rather than a promise. If you want to see how the kit sits against similar products, the big-puff vape kits page lists them with prices and strengths side by side.
One piece of context matters for anyone who has not bought a vape for a while. Single-use vapes became illegal to sell in the UK on 1 June 2025. This product is not one of them. It is a reusable, rechargeable device, which is the format that replaced the throwaway bars, and that is why it has a charging port instead of a sealed battery that dies and goes in the bin.
The rest of this guide works through what the numbers mean, how the pod operates, what Fruit Mix is likely to taste like, who the kit suits, how to choose a strength, the specification, first use, charging, the good and bad points, troubleshooting, and the practical matters of value, delivery and age checks. Everything here is written for adults only, and for people who already smoke or vape nicotine, not for anyone who does not.
Numbers on vape packaging are easy to misread, and this listing carries two of them. The product name ends in "40K Puffs", yet the manufacturer rating is 8,000. That "40K" tag is part of how this flavour variant is labelled further up the supply chain. The price, the two strengths and the puff rating on this page all describe a single kit. If you ever want to confirm exactly what an order contains before you pay, message us and we will check it for you.
Now the rating itself. A puff count is produced on a testing machine that takes draws of a fixed length, at fixed intervals, until the pod or battery gives out. Human beings do not vape like machines. Short, gentle pulls stretch the total, while long, hard, frequent draws shorten it. It also helps to remember that a prefilled pod sold in the UK cannot hold more than 2ml of liquid. Spread across 8,000 puffs, that is at most a quarter of a microlitre per draw, which is a very small sip indeed. Plenty of adults find that their real-world figure lands below the headline, and that is normal rather than a fault.
The useful way to treat the number is as a yardstick. At £9.49, an 8,000 puff rating works out at roughly 0.12p per puff, or about £1.19 for every thousand. As an illustration only, someone taking 100 puffs a day would be looking at around 80 days if the kit delivered its full rating, 200 puffs a day would be around 40 days, and 400 puffs a day about 20 days. Those are sums, not measurements, and your own habits will push them either way.
It also helps to know where the rating sits in the market. Devices are grouped into puff bands, and comparing like with like is the only fair approach. If 8,000 sounds like more than you need, the 6,000 puff vapes page covers the lower band. If you want a bigger reservoir and battery, the 10,000 puff vapes page shows what the next step up looks like.
Whichever band you land in, judge a kit by price, strength options, format and how it feels in your hand, not by the largest number on the box. A higher rating is only good value if you will finish the pod before the flavour loses its charm.
Strip away the branding and a pod kit is three things working together: a battery, a pod and a way of switching the two on. The battery is a rechargeable cell in the body of the device. The pod is a small sealed reservoir holding e-liquid, with a wick and a heating coil built in and a mouthpiece moulded on top. Many kits in this format switch on automatically when you draw, using a sensor that detects airflow, which is why there is often no button at all. Check the leaflet in the box for the exact behaviour of your unit, since we do not want to describe features we have not been given in writing.
When you inhale, the battery sends power to the coil. The coil warms the wick, the liquid soaked into it turns to vapour, and that vapour travels up through the mouthpiece. Release the draw and the heating stops. Because the coil is part of the pod, it only ever has to cope with the liquid it was built for, and when the liquid runs out the coil's useful life is essentially over too.
This sealed approach is known as a closed pod system. The factory fills the pod, seals it, and you are not meant to open it, top it up or swap the coil. That is a deliberate trade: you give up the ability to choose your own liquid in return for a device with almost nothing to maintain. Our closed pod vape kits page gathers the other products built the same way, and it is worth a look if you want to compare approaches.
The liquid inside is nicotine salt, a form that feels smoother on the throat than the older freebase nicotine used in standard bottles. That is the reason it dominates the pod market, especially in the 10mg to 20mg range. UK rules cap nicotine at 20mg per millilitre and limit prefilled pods and tanks to 2ml, so every legal kit in this category is working within the same ceiling.
Please do not try to prise the pod open or refill it. A pod that has been tampered with can leak, behave unpredictably and is not covered by any fault policy. If you want refillable hardware, that is a different product family altogether.
Flavour names that say "mix" leave plenty to the imagination. We have not seen a note-by-note breakdown for this variant from the manufacturer, so we will not claim specific fruits that nobody has confirmed. What we can do is describe how this style of flavour typically behaves, and let you decide whether that is what you are after.
A blended fruit profile usually aims for roundness rather than sharpness. Instead of one dominant fruit, you tend to get a sweet opening on the inhale, a juicier middle, and a finish that fades quickly rather than lingering. For some people that is the whole attraction: it is a flavour you can vape all afternoon without tiring of it, because no single note shouts over the others. For others it can feel a little anonymous compared with a flavour that commits to one fruit.
Notice what the name does not say. There is no "ice" or "menthol" in it, so you should reasonably expect a warmer, fruit-led experience than the cooling variants in the same range. That is an expectation rather than a guarantee, as some blends carry a faint freshness to lift the sweetness. If you want a definite chill, other flavours in the Viscore 8000 family, such as Banana Ice, are labelled accordingly.
Strength changes the way flavour comes across. At 20mg the throat hit is firmer and can nudge the fruit into the background. At 10mg the draw is gentler and the sweetness often registers more clearly. Neither is better, they are simply different, and you may prefer one over the other once you have tried both.
Give a new pod a few minutes to bed in before judging it. The first draws can taste muted while the wick saturates, and your palate also needs a moment to adjust. If you enjoy browsing before you commit, our pod kits collection shows other flavours and brands, so you can compare with something you already know you like.
Start with the person rather than the product, because the same kit can be a great choice for one adult and a poor one for another. Here is an honest sorting of the two.
This kit tends to suit you if:
You may want to look elsewhere if:
One more thing to be aware of is the ecosystem. If you like the format and plan to carry on with it, you will eventually want replacement pods, and these are normally specific to a device family. Our prefilled vape pods collection is the place to look, but always check that a pod is listed as compatible with this kit before you buy, because opened pods cannot be returned.
If you are unsure where you fall, think about your typical day. Frequent top-ups of nicotine, long sessions and lots of draws point towards something bigger or refillable. Light, occasional or on-the-go use points towards a compact sealed kit like this one.
Strength is printed as milligrams of nicotine per millilitre of liquid, so 20mg means 2 per cent nicotine by volume. That is the legal ceiling in the UK. Nothing stronger can be sold, which means the 20mg option here is already at the top of what is permitted, and 10mg is exactly half of that.
Both options use nicotine salt, and a wider choice of it in bottle form sits on our nicotine salt e-liquids page if you ever move to refillable gear. Salts are designed to feel smooth at higher strengths, which is why 20mg in a pod is far less harsh than 20mg would be in a traditional freebase bottle. Smooth does not mean mild, however. The nicotine delivery is real, and it is the reason these products are only for adults who already use nicotine.
As a rough, non-medical guide, many adults who smoke around ten or more cigarettes a day, or who light up soon after waking, start with 20mg. It tends to settle cravings with fewer draws. Adults who smoke less, or who are stepping down from a higher strength, often find 10mg more comfortable and easier to enjoy for flavour. If you are coming from a different vape and you already know your preferred strength in nicotine salt, match it.
Think about how you vape as well as how you used to smoke. A device rated at thousands of puffs invites long, relaxed sessions, and a lot of draws at 20mg adds up to a lot of nicotine. If you notice lightheadedness, nausea, a racing pulse or a sore throat, put the kit down and choose the lower strength next time. If you find yourself reaching for it constantly yet feeling unsatisfied, the higher strength may be a better fit.
Neither choice is a commitment. Buy the strength you think suits you, and if it turns out wrong, change it on the next order. Please keep all nicotine products away from children and pets.
When you are comparing kits, a clean list of the confirmed facts is more useful than a page of adjectives. Here is what we can state about this listing.
Equally useful is what is not on that list. We have not been supplied a verified battery capacity, coil resistance, coil material or exact liquid volume for this kit, so we have left them out. Guessing at a figure is how spec sheets end up wrong, and we would rather be upfront than invent a number you might base a purchase on. The packaging and Uwell's own product information remain the authority for anything beyond the facts above.
There are some category-level limits that do apply, because they apply to every legal product of this type sold in the UK. Prefilled pods and tanks are capped at 2ml. Nicotine is capped at 20mg per millilitre. Products must carry a health warning and be notified to the regulator before sale. These are rules of the market, not features of this kit, but they help explain why the range of specifications across rival products is narrower than you might expect.
Use the list as a checklist when you compare. Line up the price, the strengths, the puff rating and the format against two or three alternatives, and you will quickly see whether this kit is competitive for your needs. A fair comparison always sets like against like, rating against rating and pod against pod.
Open the box on a flat surface and lay out everything before you touch the pod. A calm start prevents most of the early problems people report. Here is a sensible order of events.
For your first few draws, go slow. Take gentle, steady pulls of a couple of seconds rather than hard drags. Pod kits like this are designed for a mouth-to-lung draw, similar to sipping through a narrow straw, and you will find the vapour smoother that way. Pause between draws instead of chain vaping, since constant use can overheat the coil and flatten the flavour.
Keep the leaflet that comes in the box. It is the document that tells you precisely how your unit switches on, how it signals a low battery, and what the indicator light means. Our guide cannot override the manufacturer's instructions, so where the two differ, follow the box.
Over your first day, notice how many draws you take and how satisfied you feel. That gives you a quick read on whether the strength you chose is right. If you find yourself needing far more or far fewer draws than expected, you will know what to change on your next order. Treat the first pod as a learning exercise as much as a purchase.
We have not been given a battery capacity for this kit, and we would rather say so than guess. In practice the useful question is not the number but the behaviour. How often will you need to plug it in, and how do you do that safely? The answer depends on how many draws you take, so keep an eye on the indicator and top up when it signals low rather than waiting for it to die completely.
Charge through the port on the body using a standard 5V USB charger, such as an ordinary phone plug, or a computer USB socket. Use a proper cable that is not frayed or bent at the ends. Avoid unbranded fast chargers, damaged plugs and anything that looks modified. Disconnect once the indicator shows it is full, and do not leave the device charging unattended for long stretches or overnight. Never charge it under a pillow, on a bed or on a sofa cushion, where heat cannot escape.
Lithium batteries dislike extremes. A hot car dashboard in July or a freezing windowsill in January will both shorten the life of the cell and, in the worst cases, create a hazard. Keep the kit at room temperature and out of direct sun. Do not carry it loose in a pocket with keys or coins, which can bridge the contacts and cause a short circuit. A small case or a separate pocket solves the problem.
For storage, keep the kit upright with the mouthpiece facing up. That helps stop liquid pooling in the airflow channel, which is the commonest cause of gurgling and leaks. Keep it somewhere cool and dry, well out of reach of children and pets, because nicotine liquid is hazardous if swallowed or touched in quantity.
If you are travelling by air, most airlines require lithium battery devices to go in cabin baggage, not the hold, and a change in cabin pressure can make a full pod leak a little, so carry it upright and check the airline's own rules. When the kit reaches the end of its life, do not put it in a household bin or kerbside recycling. Take it to a household waste recycling centre or a retailer running a battery or vape recycling scheme, so the battery is handled properly.
No product is perfect, and a page that lists only strengths is a sales pitch rather than a guide. Here is a plain account of where the Viscore 8000 in Fruit Mix earns its place and where it falls short.
What it does well
Where it falls short
Weigh those points against how you actually vape. For a light to moderate adult user wanting ease, the pros win comfortably. For a heavy daily user who likes to tinker, the cons start to outweigh them.
Most problems with pod kits are small and fixable. Work through the likely causes in order before assuming the unit is faulty, because the simple explanation is usually the right one.
Nothing happens when you draw. Check that the battery has charge, then remove the pod and seat it again firmly. Look for a protective tab or film that was left on during unboxing. If the device uses an airflow sensor, make sure your fingers are not covering an air inlet. A short charge often wakes a battery that has been sitting for weeks.
Weak or flat flavour. The common causes are a pod that is nearly empty, a battery running low, or flavour fatigue, which is when your palate simply stops registering a taste you have been vaping all day. Switch to something different for an hour, or take a break from the kit entirely, and then try again. A nearly empty pod can also taste muted before it finally dries out.
Burnt or harsh taste. This nearly always means the wick is running dry. It can be caused by chain vaping, very long draws, or using the pod right to the end. Stop using the pod when the taste turns acrid and replace it, since pushing on only damages the experience further.
Leaking or gurgling. Condensation builds up in the airflow path, especially if the kit is stored on its side or carried in a warm pocket. Wipe the mouthpiece with a dry tissue, keep the device upright, and give it a gentle blow-through away from your face to clear the channel. Do not squeeze the pod.
Warm or hot device. Some warmth during charging is normal. Anything that is too hot to hold should be unplugged and left to cool in a safe place, and then not used again until you have contacted us.
If none of this helps, or the device arrives damaged, use our contact page and include your order number, the flavour and strength, and a photograph of the problem. Please do not try to open the pod or the battery section.
Let us start with the money. One kit is £9.49, two come to £18.98 and three to £28.47. Delivery on orders over £20 is free across the UK, so a single kit sits below the threshold and a pair also falls just short at £18.98, whilst a third item tips you over. If you plan to buy more than one thing, it is worth checking our vape deals page first, since multibuy offers and bundles can change the sums quite a bit.
Orders placed before 4pm on a weekday are dispatched the same working day. Standard delivery takes two to three working days and costs £2.99 on orders under £20, and next-day delivery is available for £4.99 when you order before the 4pm cut-off on a weekday. Parcels go out in plain, discreet packaging. The full detail, including how to start a return, is set out on our shipping and returns page.
All stock is genuine, supplied through authorised channels, and we would urge caution with any seller offering nicotine products at prices that look too good to be true. In terms of returns, for hygiene and safety reasons we cannot accept opened e-liquids, pods or similar products, and once this prefilled kit has been used you should treat it in the same way. Faulty or damaged goods can be reported within 30 days for a replacement or refund.
Age checks are not optional. It is illegal to sell nicotine vaping products to anyone under 18, and we take that seriously. Every visitor confirms their age on entry and orders are verified electronically, with an ID request where a check is inconclusive. You can read how it works on our age verification page. Please do not order if you are under 18, and do not buy on behalf of anyone who is.
Before you pay, take a moment at the basket to confirm that you have chosen the right flavour, Fruit Mix, and the right strength, 10mg or 20mg. A quick check costs nothing and avoids the disappointment of a wrong strength arriving at your door.

Uwell makes the Caliburn pod kit — one of the most widely recommended first-pod devices in the UK — along with its newer G3 and A3S refillable platforms. Consistent coil quality and genuinely comfortable mouthfeel are the brand's trademark.
The manufacturer rating is 8,000 puffs per kit. That figure comes from machine testing with fixed draw lengths, so real results depend entirely on how you vape. Short, gentle draws stretch the total, while long and frequent pulls use it up faster. It is best used to compare this kit with others in the same price band, not as a guarantee of how long your pod will last.
The 40K tag comes from how this flavour variant is labelled in the supply chain. The £9.49 price, the two strengths and the 8,000 puff rating on this page all relate to a single kit. If you want to be sure what is in your order before paying, send us a message through the contact page and we will confirm it for you.
No. Single-use vapes have been illegal to sell in the UK since 1 June 2025. The Viscore 8000 is a reusable device with a rechargeable battery and a prefilled pod, so you charge it and eventually replace the pod. When the kit reaches the end of its life, it should be taken to a proper recycling point rather than put in a household bin.
As a rough guide, adults who smoke around ten or more cigarettes a day often start with 20mg, which is the UK legal maximum. Lighter smokers, or those stepping down, often prefer 10mg for a softer draw. This is general information and not medical advice. If a strength leaves you lightheaded or queasy, choose the lower one next time.
No. This is a closed pod system, meaning the pod is filled and sealed at the factory and is not designed to be opened or topped up. Attempting to refill it can cause leaks and poor performance, and it will not be covered under any fault claim. If you prefer to use your own liquid, you would need a refillable pod device instead.
It is a blended fruit flavour, so expect a sweet, rounded profile rather than one dominant fruit. The name does not mention ice or menthol, so it should be warmer and less cooling than the Ice variants in the range. We have not seen a note-by-note breakdown from the maker, so treat this as a typical description rather than a precise list of ingredients.
Charge through the port on the body using a standard 5V USB charger or a computer socket and a good-quality cable. We have not been given a verified charging time, so follow the leaflet in the box and unplug once the indicator shows full. Do not charge it unattended for long periods, overnight, or on soft furnishings.
Orders placed before 4pm on a weekday are dispatched the same working day. Standard delivery takes two to three working days and is free on orders over £20, or £2.99 below that. Next-day delivery is available for £4.99 when you order before 4pm on a weekday. Everything is sent in plain, discreet packaging.
Yes. It is illegal to sell nicotine vaping products to anyone under 18. Visitors confirm their age on entry, and orders are checked electronically. If a check is inconclusive, we may ask for ID before dispatch. Please do not order if you are under 18, and do not buy on behalf of anyone who is. These products are not for non-smokers.
First run through the basics: charge it, reseat the pod, and make sure any protective film has been removed. If it still does not work, or it arrives damaged, contact us with your order number, the flavour and strength, and a photograph. Faulty items can be reported within 30 days. Do not try to open the pod or the battery section.

Really pleased with the order overall. Everything arrived as expected, well packed, fast dispatch.
Ordered Wednesday evening, arrived Thursday morning. Everything sealed, genuine, exactly what I expected.
Taste is proper — no chemical aftertaste or anything. Just clean flavour throughout. Love it.
Been looking for something like this for ages. Finally found a brand that doesn't disappoint.
Switched from a well-known brand and this is actually better, especially for the price. Will reorder.
Delivery was super fast and the product is genuine. I've had fakes before so this was a relief.
