Aspire Gotek V2 Replacement Pods

Introduction

The Aspire Gotek V2 pods are the upgraded mesh refillable pods for the Gotek range, sold as a 2-pack for £5.99 (under £3 a pod). Each pod holds 2ml of e-liquid, fills from the side and comes in two resistances: 0.8ohm for mouth-to-lung and 0.6ohm for a looser, warmer restricted direct-lung draw. These are empty pods, so you add your own e-liquid. Best for Gotek owners who want cheap refills instead of pricey prefilled cartridges, and not the pod you want if you were hoping for a replaceable coil.

Key Facts

• The Aspire Gotek V2 replacement pods ship 2 per pack, each with 2ml TPD-compliant capacity.
• The mesh coil is built into the pod and cannot be replaced on its own; when flavour fades, you swap the whole pod.
• The 0.8ohm pod runs MTL (a tight, cigarette-like pull); the 0.6ohm pod runs restricted DTL (more air, more vapour).
• Both pods are designed for nic salts and 50/50 e-liquid, not thick high-VG shortfills.

The Gotek V2 pods are Aspire's revised mesh pod and the current standard across the Gotek family. They keep the familiar side-fill plug and 2ml tank but use an upgraded mesh that holds flavour longer than the first-generation Gotek pods. One pack keeps a Gotek topped up for weeks and costs a fraction of running the same device on sealed prefilled pods.

Key Specs Customers Check

• Pack: 2 x Gotek V2 pods. One in use, one spare, so you are never caught short.
• Capacity: 2ml each. The UK TPD limit for a refillable pod.
• Coil: built-in upgraded mesh, fixed. Even heating and fast wicking; you replace the pod, not the coil.
• Resistance: 0.6ohm or 0.8ohm. Pick the ohm to match your draw, not your device.
• Fill: side port with a rubber plug. Lift the plug, fill, press it back; no unscrewing.
• Best liquid: nic salt or 50/50. High-VG juice is too thick for the small mesh.

0.6ohm or 0.8ohm: Which Gotek V2 Pod to Pick

The resistance sets the style of vape, so choose by how you like to inhale.

• Aspire Gotek V2 0.8ohm pod: mouth-to-lung. A tight, cool, cigarette-style draw. The best match for ex-smokers and anyone moving over from a disposable, paired with 10mg or 20mg nic salt. This is the one most Gotek users want.
• Aspire Gotek V2 0.6ohm pod: restricted direct-lung. A warmer, airier draw with a bit more vapour and flavour. Best with 10mg salt or lower-strength 50/50, and it gets through liquid a little quicker.

Not sure? Start with the 0.8ohm if you are coming off cigarettes or a disposable; step up to the 0.6ohm once you want a fuller lung hit.

What E-Liquid to Use

Fill the Gotek V2 pods with nic salt or 50/50 (half VG, half PG) e-liquid. Nic salt is a smoother form of nicotine that absorbs quickly, which is why it suits the tight MTL pod and ex-smokers. Thick 70/30 shortfills do not wick properly through the small mesh and will dull the flavour or cause a dry hit, so avoid them. For strength, a 20-a-day smoker usually starts on 20mg salt, lighter smokers on 10mg, and the 0.6ohm pod pairs well with 10mg or a low-mg 50/50. Browse the 10ml Nic Salts and 50/50 e-liquids to pair with your pods.

Compatibility: Which Gotek Devices Fit

The Aspire Gotek V2 replacement pods fit right across the Gotek series:

• Both pods (0.6ohm and 0.8ohm) fit: Aspire Gotek Pro 2, Gotek X3, Gotek X2, Gotek Nano and Gotek Pro.
• 0.8ohm pod also fits: the Gotek X and Gotek S.
• Important: the 0.6ohm pod does NOT fit the Gotek X or Gotek S — those devices cannot supply the power the 0.6ohm mesh needs, so stick to the 0.8ohm pod on them.

Pod Life and Running Cost

• Pod life: most Gotek users get around 1-2 weeks per pod on 50/50 nic salt, less with very sweet or dark liquids that clog mesh faster.
• Cost: at £5.99 for 2 that is under £3 a pod. Refilling with a 10ml bottle costs a few pounds and lasts far longer than buying sealed prefilled pods.
• Tip: a quick refill before the pod runs bone dry keeps the mesh from scorching and makes each pod last longer.

How to Fill and Prime

1. Lift the rubber plug on the side of the pod.
2. Fill with 50/50 or nic salt e-liquid to just below the max line, then push the plug back in firmly.
3. Stand the pod upright for about 5 minutes so the mesh soaks up liquid — skipping this gives a burnt first puff.
4. Click the pod into your Gotek device and draw gently to start.
