E-Cigarettes (Refillable Vapes)

There’s virtually an endless amount of pod vapes on the market. Frankly, it’s a blessing and a curse. It’s great for you to have options, but how are you to know which are the best pod vapes when there are so many to choose from? The simplest way is to learn from other’s experiences! Because our team has either purchased, tested, or reviewed the most popular pods vapes, we can help you significantly narrow your search.

This list features the best pod vapes for refilling with your own e-juice, which make for great alternatives to the JUUL.

A pod vape is a mini vape based on a two-part system: a pod filled with vape juice that snaps into a small battery. They’re available in pre-filled or refillable designs. Some will have power buttons but often they’re automatic—meaning you just take a drag on them to produce vapor.

Most pod vapes, also referred to as vape pods, mini vapes or pod systems, are designed for smokers transitioning into vaping. Although the ultimate in ease of use is something like a disposable JUUL, refillable pod vapes are most a close second. They’re often compact and lightweight, with a focus on simplicity and flexibility—made possible by being refillable.

Disposable e-Pods are also considered the best nic salt vapes, as their lower power output is a perfect fit for the higher strength of nicotine salts.

TYPES OF POD SYSTEMS

Pods have come a long way since first introduced with the JUUL back in 2015. While still fitting the general definition of what a pod vape is, today’s devices have pushed things forward in regards to features and capabilities.

A pod vape in 2021 will belong in one or more of these categories:

STANDARD POD SYSTEM:
A small button or draw-activated vape that takes replaceable pods.

POD AIO: a compact all-in-one device that takes pods with replaceable coils.

POD ICON:
A usually larger pod-based vape with a fully-suited chipset and screen. Most pod mods are also AIOs, as they take replaceable coils.
A standard pod system can be further sorted into two categories: refillable and pre-filled. Each style comes with its own pros and cons. When purchasing a pod system, it ultimately comes down to personal preference.

REFILLABLE POD SYSTEM:
Gives you more freedom in terms of flavor. Also known as open-system vapes, these devices utilize empty pods that are manually filled by the user. The main advantage to them is that you have a wider range of flavors at your disposal.

PRE-FILLED POD SYSTEM:  also referred to as or closed system vapes, these vapes use pods that come pre-filled with e-liquid—think of them as JUUL alternatives. Their main advantage is not having the complications of choosing the right e-liquid and having to fill them yourself.
