What Are The Most Eco-Friendly Vape Kits?

If you’re looking for a more eco-friendly alternative to disposable vapes that’s just as convenient and low-maintenance, you’ll find your answer in our prefilled pod vapes. Of these, the Elfa Pro kit is a customer favourite. It uses pods which come ready-filled with nic salt e-liquid, and all you have to do to get started is break the seal on the pod, insert it into your device and inhale on the mouthpiece to vape.

Elfa Pro pods come in a wide variety of blends, including ones inspired by the best-selling Elf Bar disposables such as Strawberry Raspberry, Cherry Cola and Watermelon. When one pod is empty, it can simply be replaced. Unlike with disposables, you won’t need to replace your entire device – just a small pod. If this kit sounds like the vape for you, check out our Elfa Pro bundle, which includes 7 pods in your choice of flavour at a more budget-friendly price. It’s an ideal way to get started with a pod kit.

The Vaporesso Luxe XR Max pod vape makes our list because it’s so versatile, it’s like having two vape kits in one. The large built-in battery can deliver up to 80W, and the device will automatically detect which coil you’ve chosen and output the best wattage to match. If you’re looking for a little more control, you can also adjust the power level yourself.

What sets this kit apart is its refillable pod which pairs with the massive Vaporesso GTX coil range. Within the series, you’ll find DTL, RDTL and MTL coils, so you don’t need to buy a second kit if you want to try another vaping style. This leads to less waste and means you can use any e-liquid you’d like. Plus, some of our customers tell us that they just keep a second pod with a different coil to hand to use when they want to change their vaping style, so they don’t need to carry another kit.

The Innokin Trine kit is one of the most sustainable refillable kits around. It uses a rechargeable 1000mAh battery that can be easily replaced and recycled when it declines due to wear and tear. This minimises waste and allows you to keep using your device. This kit has been designed for MTL vaping, and you can tailor how each puff feels by adjusting the 5-25W power output at the click of a button.

The VCap pods are top-filling and can be topped up with 2ml of e-liquid without needing to remove the pod from your kit. These pods house built-in coils, so you can swap the whole pod with a new one once your coil begins to taste burnt. You’ll find these pods in 0.6 Ohm, 0.8 Ohm and 1.2 Ohm resistances, so whether you’re after a tighter or looser vape, there’s something for you.

Designed to be an eco-friendly alternative to disposables, the Vaporesso Eco Nano is a compact and pocket-friendly refillable kit. Its built-in 1000mAh battery will provide plenty of use between charges and it’s quick to recharge, too. Featuring a 16W max power output, this device will deliver a discreet amount of vapour with each puff – just inhale on the mouthpiece to get started.

The Eco Nano pods are what land this vape in our best eco-friendly vapes guide. Each pod houses a built-in Corex morph mesh coil that more efficiently vaporises e-liquid. This means the coil lasts longer, which means fewer pod replacements! You’ll find these pods in 0.6 Ohm, 0.8 Ohm and 1.2 Ohm resistances, so you can experiment with a tighter or looser draw and find an inhale that suits you.

If you’re looking for a more eco-friendly yet simple vape, look no further than the Innokin Endura Apex. Designed to be easy to use for vapers of all experience levels – even those who’ve never used a refillable kit before – it features a mess-free top-filling design and a convenient single-button design. Despite its simplicity, it still boasts features like adjustable airflow and variable power levels.

As the Endura Apex features replaceable coils, it produces less waste when compared to disposable vapes or built-in coil kits. Compatible with the Innokin Prism S coil series, which features several resistance choices, two of them are included so you can try them out and find your favourite.

The Uwell Caliburn GZ2 is just one of the popular kits in the Caliburn range. Even though it’s been designed to be pocket-friendly and compact, it houses a built-in 850mAh battery that’s big enough to last most vapers all day. The GZ2 combines inhale activation with a discreet, MTL vape that feels more like a cigarette.

Caliburn G2 pods are compatible with the Caliburn G coils. As the coils aren’t built into the pods and can be replaced, there’s less waste – instead of disposing of the whole pod, you only need to throw away the coil inside. There are several coil resistances to pick from, with each delivering an MTL inhale alongside differing levels of vapour.

The Innokin Adept Zlide kit is designed to be durable and long-wearing. This makes it an ideal choice if you’re looking for a greener vape, since it can more easily withstand the knocks and drops that might break other devices, causing you to need a replacement. Boasting an IP67 protection rating, it’s waterproof, dustproof, and the rubber body means it’s shockproof too.

The Zlide tank utilises replaceable coils, so there are no pods to dispose of – the only part that needs to be thrown away is the coil, and even they can be recycled. Within the Zenith and Plexus-Z coil ranges, you’ll find a variety of different MTL resistances on offer, so you can easily find one that suits your preferred inhale style.

If you’re on the market for a vape that’s more eco-friendly, even at the end of its lifespan, there’s the Smok Novo Eco. The battery is removable, making it easy to recycle. This pocket-friendly kit has a huge range of built-in coil pods in a choice of side and top-filling designs. You can also pick from standard, mesh or quartz coils, starting at 0.4 Ohm and going all the way up to 1.4 Ohm, so finding one that suits you is simple.

With its 5 - 30W wattage range it’s capable of delivering either an MTL or RDTL inhale. The single button design keeps things easy, just press it twice to switch between Soft and Hard mode. To cut down on waste, there is no charging cable included with this kit – as you may have one already.

Riot pride themselves on being a carbon negative company. Their Riot Connex devices and prefilled pods are made from recycled plastic. This kit features a buttonless design that makes it simple to use, even if you’re a new vaper. Just attach a pod to the 500mAh battery and inhale on the mouthpiece.

Connex pods are filled with your choice of either 10mg or 20mg nic salt e-liquid, which delivers a smooth throat hit and satisfies your cravings quickly. Once the pod runs out of liquid it can be replaced with a new one. Thanks to the magnetic connection, pod changes are quick and simple.

Our last entry is a great option if you are looking for a prefilled kit that will last for longer. The Dojo Blast 6000 is a big puff vape that features a 10ml refill container and a 2ml prefilled pod to deliver up to 6000 puffs right out of the box. To put that into context, that’s roughly the same as ten standard prefilled pods! Dojo Blast 6000 prefilled pods feature fruit, soda and ice flavours, and unlike many prefilled pods, they are available in both 10mg and 20mg nicotine strengths.

Talking of prefilled pods, it's these that have earned the Dojo Blast 6000 a place on this list. Featuring more e-liquid than your average refill pack, these cut down on the amount of pod changes you need to do – which is friendlier on the environment and your wallet!
