IVG Nexio Prefilled Pod Kit

What Is the IVG Nexio Prefilled Pod Kit?

The IVG Nexio Prefilled Pod Kit is a pod-based vaping system from IVG, one of the UK's more established vape brands. It's built around a compact pod device paired with replaceable pods, and as a complete kit it's rated for approximately 10,000 puffs across its working life when you keep swapping in fresh pods as they run dry. That figure isn't about squeezing 10,000 draws from a single fill, it's what the device and its pod system are designed to deliver over time, which is the whole point of buying a kit instead of a disposable.

If you've been going through disposable vapes and are tired of binning a plastic device every couple of days, the Nexio is aimed squarely at you. It keeps the simplicity people like about disposables, no buttons, no menus, just inhale and go, but swaps the "use once and throw away" model for one where you only replace the part that actually wears out: the pod.

Who It's Best Suited To

• Disposable vape switchers who want the same grab-and-go feel without the ongoing waste and cost of buying a new device every few days.
• Beginner to intermediate vapers who want something straightforward, with no wattage settings or airflow rings to fiddle with.
• People who liked a specific disposable flavour range and want that same instant, no-setup experience in a more permanent device.
• Anyone trying to cut down on single-use vape waste without jumping straight into a full open-system mod and separate tank.

It's less suited to vapers who specifically want to adjust wattage, airflow, or coil type, the Nexio is a closed, simple system by design, not a tinkerer's device.

How to Use the IVG Nexio Pod Kit

Getting started

Unbox the device and check the pod is seated firmly, most pod systems like this click or slot into place, and you should feel a small resistance when it's properly connected. There's no button to press on most devices in this category; the Nexio is designed to fire automatically when you draw on the mouthpiece, so once the pod is in, you're ready to vape.

Filling or fitting a pod

Depending on which pod you're using, you'll either be fitting a new prefilled pod or topping up a refillable one with your own e-liquid. If you're filling a pod yourself, open the fill port (usually a small bung or plug on the side or base of the pod), add your e-liquid slowly to avoid air bubbles, and let it sit for a few minutes before vaping. This gives the coil inside time to properly soak up the liquid, which matters more than people think, vaping on a dry coil, even briefly, is the single most common reason a pod tastes burnt from the first puff.

First few puffs

Take a few slow, gentle draws to start rather than long deep pulls. This helps you gauge how the flavour and throat hit feel and gives the coil a chance to settle in properly before you vape normally.

Nicotine Strength Guidance

Nicotine strength is a personal choice and should reflect how much you were smoking or vaping before, not a guess. As a rough general guide:

• 0mg, contains no nicotine at all. Suitable for anyone who wants the vaping experience and flavour without any nicotine content.
• 3mg, 6mg, a lighter strength, often chosen by people who smoked occasionally or are already used to vaping and finding their level.
• 10mg, 12mg, a mid strength, commonly picked by moderate smokers moving across to vaping.
• 20mg (2%), the maximum nicotine strength permitted for e-liquids in the UK under current regulations, typically as nicotine salt formulations. This is generally aimed at heavier smokers who need a stronger, faster hit to feel satisfied.

If you're unsure, it's usually better to start slightly lower than you think you need, you can always move up, whereas starting too strong can just make vaping unpleasant. Nicotine-containing products are intended strictly for existing adult smokers and vapers aged 18 and over.

How It Compares to Other Pod Kits

Vs disposable vapes

A disposable gives you one device, one battery charge, and one fill of liquid, then it's finished. The Nexio flips that: you keep one device and just replace the pod (and recharge the battery) as needed. Over time that generally works out cheaper per puff than buying disposables back to back, and it means far less plastic and battery waste going into general rubbish, which disposables are notorious for.

Vs fully open pod systems

Some pod kits on the market are built around adjustable wattage, replaceable coil heads in various resistances, and manual airflow control. The Nexio sits a step below that in complexity, it's closer to a "fill it and forget it" experience, prioritising ease of use over customisation. That's an advantage if you want something that just works without reading a manual, and a limitation if you specifically want to fine-tune your vape.

Vs pen-style refillable kits

Compared with older-style pen kits and separate tanks, pod systems like the Nexio tend to be smaller, more discreet, and quicker to swap between flavours, you're changing a small pod rather than draining and refilling a tank. The trade-off is generally a smaller liquid capacity per pod, meaning more frequent (but faster) top-ups.

Getting the Best Performance and Puff Life

• Prime new pods before use. A short soak after filling avoids that harsh, burnt first-draw taste.
• Don't let a pod run bone dry. Vaping on an empty or near-empty pod is the fastest way to damage the coil and shorten its life.
• Take steady draws, not rapid chain-vaping. Giving the coil a moment to re-saturate between puffs helps flavour stay consistent for longer.
• Keep the device charged. Running the battery right down to empty repeatedly can affect performance and long-term battery health more than topping it up regularly.
• Wipe the contacts occasionally. A small amount of e-liquid residue can build up where the pod meets the device; a dry wipe with a tissue or cloth keeps the connection solid.

Care, Storage and Safety

Store the Nexio upright where possible to reduce the chance of e-liquid pooling around the airflow or mouthpiece. Keep it out of direct sunlight and away from extreme heat or cold, both temperature extremes can affect battery performance and e-liquid consistency.

As with any vape device, keep it and any spare pods or e-liquid well out of reach of children and pets; nicotine e-liquid is harmful if swallowed. If you're not using the device for an extended period, it's worth removing the pod and giving both the pod and device a quick wipe down before storing them somewhere dry.

Only use pods and e-liquids that are compatible with the Nexio system, and check that any e-liquid you use is UK TPD-compliant, meaning it's been through the required notification process, is sold in bottles no larger than 10ml if it contains nicotine, and any pod or tank holding nicotine liquid doesn't exceed the 2ml capacity limit set by UK regulations.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is the IVG Nexio refillable?

Yes, it's designed as a pod-based kit where pods can be topped up or replaced rather than the whole device being thrown away, which is the main difference between it and a standard disposable vape.

How many puffs will I get out of it?

As a complete kit, it's rated for approximately 10,000 puffs over its lifetime, spread across the device and however many pods you go through, not from a single pod or single charge.

What nicotine strength should I pick?

It depends on your current smoking or vaping habits. Lighter smokers or existing vapers often do well on 3, 6mg, moderate smokers tend to suit 10, 12mg, and heavier smokers may prefer the maximum UK-legal strength of 20mg (2%). If in doubt, start a little lower and adjust.

Can I use 0mg e-liquid in it?

Yes. 0mg pods and e-liquids contain no nicotine at all and work in the same device, they're a good option if you want the sensation and flavour of vaping without any nicotine content.

Is the IVG Nexio TPD compliant?

Any nicotine-containing pods or e-liquid sold for use with the Nexio in the UK are required to meet TPD regulations, including the 2ml capacity limit on nicotine-containing pods/tanks and the 20mg (2%) nicotine strength cap. Always check individual product listings for confirmation.

How do I know when to replace a pod?

A drop in flavour quality, a burnt or harsh taste that doesn't improve, gurgling sounds, or visibly empty liquid inside the pod are all signs it's time to swap it out rather than trying to squeeze out a few more puffs.

Who is this kit best for?

It suits vapers who liked the simplicity of disposables, no settings, no adjustment, just inhale and vape, but want a more sustainable, generally cheaper long-term setup that doesn't mean binning a full device every couple of days.
