IVG Reload Mini Prefilled Pod Kit

IVG Reload Mini Prefilled Pod Kit

The IVG Reload Mini is the smallest device in the IVG pod range, built for adult smokers who want a prefilled pod vape that fits in a pocket without the bulk of a big-puff kit. It arrives ready to vape: a 2ml prefilled pod filled with 20mg nic salt is already in the box, so there are no bottles, no coils and no settings to work through before the first draw.

What separates it from a sealed single-use bar is the pod system. When the pod is finished, it comes out and a fresh one clicks in, and the device carries on. The draw is mouth-to-lung, close to a cigarette pull, which is why it suits smokers moving across rather than cloud chasers. At £1.99 it sits at the bottom of the UK price range for a rechargeable prefilled kit.

One detail worth knowing before buying: the Reload Mini takes IVG 2400 Reload pods, the same pods used by the larger IVG 2400. That opens up 55 flavour editions from a device that costs less than a takeaway coffee.

Key Specs Customers Check

• Puff count: Up to 600 puffs per pod. IVG rate this on short, standard MTL draws, so long pulls bring it down.
• Pod capacity: 2ml prefilled pod, sealed at the factory and not designed to be topped up by hand.
• Nicotine: 20mg (2%) nicotine salt, the UK legal maximum, giving a fast, smooth hit.
• Battery: 500mAh built in and rechargeable. Several UK listings quote 850mAh for this device, which does not match IVG's own published spec.
• Charging: USB Type-C fast charging. The cable is not included, so any standard USB-C lead is needed.
• Coil: Mesh coil inside every pod, heating the liquid evenly so flavour holds to the end.
• Activation: Inhale activated. No buttons, no screen, no menus.
• Compatibility: Only compatible with IVG 2400 Reload pods. Pods from the IVG Pro, SAVR or Smart Max ranges will not fit.
• Flavours: 20 kit flavours at Vape Online Store, plus 55 editions through the 2400 pod range.
• Compliance: Fully UK TPD and TRPR compliant.

What Is Actually In The Box

This is where most listings get it wrong. Several large UK retailers describe the Reload Mini as a two-pod kit delivering 1,200 puffs. IVG's own product page lists the contents as one device, one prefilled 2ml pod and a user manual, which is 600 puffs to start with.

• 1 x IVG Reload Mini device
• 1 x prefilled 2ml pod, 20mg nicotine salt
• 1 x user manual

The 1,200 and 2,400 puff figures come from the pod packs sold separately: a 2-pack of 2400 Reload pods gives 1,200 puffs, a 4-pack gives 2,400.

How Long One Pod Lasts

600 puffs means very different things depending on how heavily the device gets used. Based on typical MTL draw lengths:

• Light use, around 100 puffs a day: roughly 5 to 6 days per pod.
• Moderate use, around 200 puffs a day: roughly 3 days per pod.
• Heavy use, 300 puffs or more a day: under 2 days per pod.
• Battery: the 500mAh cell generally needs charging before the pod runs dry, so expect at least one charge per pod.

The 2400 Pod Compatibility Nobody Mentions

Most pages selling the Reload Mini treat it as a standalone starter kit and stop there. In practice it is the cheapest way into the entire IVG 2400 flavour library. The pods are physically identical, so any 2400 Reload pod, including the multi-flavour editions, drops straight into the Mini.

That matters for cost. Buying a fresh kit every time is wasteful when the device is reusable and pods are sold separately. Browse the full prefilled pod kits range to compare, or the wider rechargeable vape collection for devices with bigger batteries.

Flavours Available

1. Blue Raspberry Ice: Sweet blue raspberry candy with a hard icy exhale. The default choice across almost every vape range for a reason.
2. Cherry Ice: Deep, sweet dark cherry chilled with menthol rather than sugared up.
3. Classic Menthol: Clean menthol on its own. No fruit, no sweetness, closest to a menthol cigarette.
4. Fizzy Cherry: Cherry soda rather than fresh cherry, with a tangy carbonated edge.
5. Pro Blue: IVG's signature blueberry and raspberry blend with a cool finish.
6. Pink Lemonade: Soft berry over a sharp lemonade base. Lighter than the ice flavours.
7. Kiwi Passionfruit Guava: Tart kiwi, sweet guava and passionfruit together. The most tropical option in the range.
8. Red Apple Ice: Sweet red apple with a crisp cold finish rather than a sour green apple bite.
9. Strawberry Ice: Ripe strawberry with a light chill. One of the gentler flavours here.
10. Watermelon Ice: Juicy watermelon, clean and cooling, not overly sweet.
11. Lemon & Lime: Sharp double citrus, tart and slightly fizzy.
12. Grape Ice: Bold dark grape with menthol underneath.
13. Sour Raspberry: Tart raspberry with a genuine sour edge rather than a candy finish.
14. Sour Blueberry Raspberry: Blueberry base sharpened with sour raspberry.
15. Blue Razz Cherry: Blue raspberry and cherry layered together, sweeter than Pro Blue.
16. Blue Razz Soda: The same blue razz profile served fizzy.
17. Strawberry Raspberry Ice: Two red berries with a cold finish.
18. Strawberry Watermelon: Sweet and juicy with no ice, the mildest option in the range.
19. Pineapple Ice: Tangy pineapple chilled with menthol.
20. Tropical Fruits: A rounded multi-fruit blend rather than one dominant flavour.

Which Flavour To Start With

Adult smokers coming off menthol cigarettes tend to settle fastest on Classic Menthol or Watermelon Ice, since both keep the cold hit without a strong sweet note. Anyone moving from a fruity disposable usually finds Blue Raspberry Ice or Pro Blue the closest match. Vapers who dislike menthol altogether should start with Strawberry Watermelon or Pink Lemonade, which are the only two that leave out the ice entirely.

Setting It Up

1. Take the device and pod out of the packaging and remove any stickers and rubber stoppers from the pod.
2. Pull the mouthpiece off the device and slide the pod into it.
3. Click the mouthpiece back into place, checking the flavour name sits above the IVG logo.
4. Charge the device fully with a USB-C cable before the first session.
5. Wait two minutes after fitting a new pod, then inhale. No button is needed.

Making The Pod Last Longer

• Take shorter draws. Puff ratings are measured on two-second pulls, and a four-second pull halves the count.
• Leave a few seconds between puffs so the mesh coil rewicks properly and avoids a dry, burnt taste.
• Keep the battery topped up. Running a pod on a flat battery produces weak vapour and wastes liquid.
• Store the device upright and out of direct heat to stop the pod weeping through the airflow.

Price Comparison

Vapour Deal list the same kit at £3.99 as of August 2026, with a 4 for £12 multibuy that works out at £3.00 each. Most UK stockists sit in the £3.99 to £4.99 band for a single kit. At £1.99 the Vape Online Store price is roughly half the typical UK figure, which works out at about £0.0033 per puff across the included pod. For comparison, a 600-puff bar at £5.00 costs £0.0083 per puff.

What Vapers Report

The recurring point raised across UK vape forums and retailer review sections about small prefilled pod devices like this one is the missing charging cable, which catches people out on the first evening. Ordering a USB-C lead alongside the kit, or checking one is already to hand, avoids a flat device on day one. The second common comment is burnt taste from vaping immediately after fitting a pod, which the two minute wait in the setup steps above prevents.

Buying From Vape Online Store

Vape Online Store holds a 4.6 out of 5 rating across more than 7,000 Trustpilot reviews, with same-day dispatch on orders placed before 3:30pm Monday to Friday. Smaller devices in this class can also be compared against the 600 puff vape range.

Frequently Asked Questions

How many puffs does the IVG Reload Mini give?

Up to 600 puffs from the single 2ml pod included in the kit. Buying a 2-pack of 2400 Reload pods adds another 1,200 puffs, and a 4-pack adds 2,400.

Does the kit come with one pod or two?

One. IVG list the box contents as a device, a single prefilled 2ml pod and a user manual. Listings claiming two pods and 1,200 puffs are describing the separately sold pod packs, not the kit.

What size is the battery?

500mAh, charged over USB Type-C. Some UK retailers state 850mAh, which does not match the figure IVG publish for this device.

Is a charging cable included?

No. Any standard USB-C cable works. A low-output plug such as a laptop port or a 5V 1A adapter is kinder to a battery this size than a fast wall charger.

Which pods fit the IVG Reload Mini?

Only IVG 2400 Reload pods, sold in 2-packs and 4-packs across 55 flavour editions. Pods from the IVG Pro, Smart Max, NEXiO and SAVR ranges use different formats and will not seat correctly.

Can the pods be refilled with e-liquid?

No. They are sealed prefilled pods. Forcing them open normally causes leaking, poor wicking or a ruined coil, and a fresh pod costs less than the mess.

Why does it taste burnt?

Usually one of three things: vaping too soon after fitting a fresh pod, chain puffing without a pause, or a pod that has simply run out. Waiting two minutes after fitting and leaving a few seconds between draws solves the first two.

Is it a good first vape for a smoker?

Yes. The mouth-to-lung draw is close to a cigarette, the 20mg nic salt handles cravings quickly, and there is nothing to set up beyond fitting the pod and charging the device.

How does it compare to the IVG 2400?

Both use identical pods and the same 20mg nic salt. The 2400 holds four pods at once in a rotating carousel for up to 2,400 puffs and a larger battery, while the Reload Mini takes one pod at a time in a much smaller body.
