i love this device but cant use it because the battery life is so bad
By Jim from Birmingham
I've been buying from VapeClub since 2014. This is by far the best system I've used to curb the smoking in years. Maybe you was like me on and off? Go to the pub few pints then a roll up. Since this POD system and my discovery of Nic Salts I've been able to stop. Comes with two spare PODs and a pack of PODs for 4 is less than £15 and a POD will last you 2 weeks if your not a heavy user. Just make sure you get 50/50 eliquid and I guarantee you it won't let you down.

Ok so after my slightly over excited first review, I thought I'd give an update after nearly a month.
First thing is the pods, I've been getting around 5-6 refils on 70 to 80 vg juice which is insane. And only replaced when the flavour started to die off a bit. Been through about 8 pods so far, and NEVER had a single dry hit, or any skanky burning, which is mega impressive.
On 50/50 nic salts I've been getting about 8 refils which again is amazing really, and I chain vape the hell out of these things.
Super impressed with the pods! And as a tip with the tips... Pull them from.the thin side.edges.and they come off much more.easily.
The only downside on these is the battery. It's started to run out of power much more quickly after just a month then when it was new. The bonus is it recharges super quickly and you can go from blue to fully charged in about 10 mins so it's not a massive issue when you can plug it in at work.or.in the car. But on a night out you'll either need a second battery with you or a portable charger to plug it in.
Literally can't fault it except for the battery life.
Now if only they could make a device with a bigger battery and the same pods, it would be a game changer!
By Beatrecon from London
excellent service from vc as usual. I have bought 4 of these little beasts so far. don't be fooled by their size, these pods can handle pretty much whatever you throw at them.
I've been vaping 70/30 mix on them and it works just fine, excellent with nic salts too.
Amazing flavour, nice warm vape, dtl or mtl works. Hugely impressed by this incredible device.
By Andrew
This is a great mix of the one-use pods and normal refillable vape devices. It gives you something that is almost as convenient as the single-use pods but with a much lower cost and selection as you can use any liquid.
Battery life is pretty decent - it could be improved but it is good enough for me. Flavour is great and comparable to anything I've used before. Pods last for a long time with a large number of refills - I've yet to feel a need to replace mine. My only real complaint is that it switches on when recharging which led to me burning the free pod that came with it - so I'd advise people to make sure to add some liquid before charging and be careful when placing it into bags to double check it is switched off!

Love this pod device probably the best one around. Nice and small for out and about or work. The pods tend to last me for a 10ml bottle of 50/50 juice before they drop out and need replacing. Highly recommended pod kit
By Keith from London
9 stars mate, such good clouds with great eliquid flavours, helped me quit smoking. would defo reccomend
only downside battery is a bit weak. otherwise cant fault it
By WillyT from St Albs
Ok, so many (good) reviews already and I can see why, but I'm less enamoured than most.
Here's why:
Whilst it's throughput is impressive, 1.4ohms? You have to be kidding me. Battery life decent, pod life not bad (mine aren't lasting as long as many say though), versatility faultless, refill (and occasional emptying...) as easy as anything and importantly, very little leakage at all but...
Some of my favourite liquids seem to get overblown, not in terms of taste, but somehow are made unpalatably sweet.
I've always preferred sour or savoury vapes generally, with the occasional sweet hit, but now it's generally a case of a variety of liquids all being samey non-descript fruit with a sugar overdose. Even the dirtiest tobacco efforts seem unnaturally sweet.
In every other sense you can't fault this product, but, for me the search goes on for the perfect all-rounder.
By Crezo from Nottingham
So I've seen a load of reviews saying how good these were. ...
The first pod you can vape 80vg
Super easy to fill
Kids that get a good 5 to 6 refills from.
No leaks
Decent battery life
No dry hits or spitback
All sounds way too good to be true right?
Well after going through about 8 different pod systems in the last year, most of them being shockingly bad, leaky, burning dry hits or the odd one that is great but comes with high and Cr*p flavours, I was about set to give up on pods.
I've got a ton of mech mods, box mods, tanks and drippers. But they're just a faf, messy and quite frankly I can't be a*sed with them.
So I thought I'd give this a try and wasn't expecting it to live up to the hype.
But I'm on my second refil of the pod with 80 VG Jam Scone juice and this thing FULLY lives up to the hype.
Not sure about the 5 refils yet, especially on high VG, but it's been perfect so far.
Not a single dry hit, full of flavour and kicks out a surprising amount of clouds for a pod (if that's your thing).
All in I can't rate this highly enough, and great to have the button fire AND auto draw as well.
If I had to find a negative, the only thing I'd say is it's a bit airey a draw - for a pod system.
I prefer a slightly tighter draw, but compared to most proper vapes and drippers it's similar aireyness.
But if you're after a refillable pod and a system that's just super easy and no hassle that doesn't weight a ton and take hours to charge... This is ya boy!
By Wolfgang from Austria
Very happy with my purchase! If you are looking for a neat pod device this is the one, you can do the research by your self as well to see how good is this device. A lot of flavour as well for such a small device, plus you get two e liquids for free so I would say go for it!
By Mikhail from London
If you try to find anything about Caliburn in the Internet you will think that it's the best vaping device ever existed under the Sun. But I guess most people compare it to JUUL.
Cons:
- Very hard to take off the mouthpiece (you need to do it to refill the pod)
- Spits back sometimes
- You need to "break in" the coils. First ml feel harsh.
- Draw activation is almost useless (maybe it's me, I like to draw slowly)
- Draw is a bit loose for MTL. Like 3-3.5 holes on Zenith/Zlide. If you used to have first Nautilus Mini, that's exactly that.
Pros:
- Easy to fill (once you took off this mouthpiece)
- Taste is very good
- Size, weight and shape is perfect (why of why many years ago all the eGo were round?!). I really like how it feels in my hand. I now compare everything to it's size
- Mouthpiece feels nice as well
- Pod sits nice and secure
For the price it's a great device. But it's not perfect.
By S from London
The best pod vape on the market. Period. (Haven't tried the Uwell Crown pod yet). It's a loose mtl vape and the flavour just keeps on giving! The coils are outrageously superb.
By Andy from UK
Brought this as I was fed up of having to take my big mod with me when out and about. This is much better, a good size to fit in my pocket and the flavours are great, in fact they are so good, I have started using it at home also instead of my main mod! Superb product at such a cheap price too.
By HelloAkira from Norfolk
Been vaping on and off for 5 years started with drippers and mech mods wanting clouds and building but that didn’t stop my failing to slip back to the stinkies, tried squonking was ok then failed again, then tried pod devices like the Mipod, then the Orion and they were good but eventually failed again for a few weeks but then came along the Caliburn and it’s great,
It feels good in the hand very light,
It charges within 30mins
I personally use 50/50 juices 20mg nic salt and get nice throat hits and loads of flavour,
For me I’ve found that when the device goes from fully charged green light to the medium charge blue light I lose flavour so will just top it up for 20mins get that full charge again and I’m good to go.
The pods fill up and wick fast, if u get any gargling or spit back(which is very rare to happen) then just take the pod out and shake it a few times in short forward motion burst with some tissue over the mouthpiece and your good to go.
Highly recommend this device.
VapeClub awesome service as usual.
By Janie from Devon
What a brilliant little vape! I’m pleasantly surprised at the experience with this little mod, so neat & compact. Don’t think about it just buy one, you won’t regret it! I will be purchasing a second!
By Mark Pro from Wales
Great vape device, use it between sub-ohm mod. Purchased 2 of them, one went faulty within the first few weeks, Kieran at VapeClub kindly replaced it, no questions asked, super service as always. Thank you.

I was very excited to get my hands on this seeing as it has amazing reviews, but I'm pretty disappointed. I immediately had problems with spitback, to the point where after taking a pull there'd be e-liquid in my mouth and all over the outside of the drip tip. I heard this happens when you overfill so I only filled the pods half way, still no joy. To be fair, one of the four pods I had was a bit better behaved, but the other three were trash. It's great when it works, but it didn't work for me.
By Stu from Edinburgh
I really really really wanted to like it and maybe I still will. Don’t get me wrong, it’s compact sturdy and the pods are good quality. I’m just not getting as good flavour as I thought I would. I have tried diff nic salts, free base liquid and it’s just not hitting the spot. I’m sure others will like it but coming from a freemax mesh pro flavour, it’s just okay and that’s it. Will try other liquids as I do like the stealth and how easy it is to operate and carry about
By Cal from Dumfries
I have been a mouth to lung user for the past 6 years using things such as nautilus tanks and battery mods. I used the Bo pod device, Juul and multiple others, but always longed for that small compact system that's packs a punch, this does that! It's comfortable, light and powerful. I recommend upping the Nic on this system as you'll really notice the difference if you do.
It's that good that it's all use and I bought another one!
By Nadz from London
Best pod system I've used. Tons of flavour. Great battery life, charges really fast and replacement pods last anywhere from 2-3 weeks. Replaced all my sub-ohm tanks. Works amazing with Nic Salts!
By Dimitris
Here is a very detailed review posted by myself on another UK site long time ago back in April 2019.
Nothing has dramatically changed (from Apr to Sept) the only minor-small negative is the airflow which is a little bit more of my preference. (you may cover the 2 airflow holes with some tape) which gives better MTL satisfaction.
This is POD perfection!! Flavor 10/10 It beats all previous pod systems in Flavor.
+ Flavor is out of control - phenomenal!! Draw is Perfect draw in the middle road satisfying.
+ Fast 1A Charging it take approx 42-45 mins which is HUGE plus for a pod system.
+ Pod longevity/life is superior. + PARALLEL Coil performance is close to perfection gives superior flavor and lasts forever.
+ Portable and modern colors. + Auto Draw or manual activation with a button - 2 methods of using it covers all types of users.
+ Battery life indicator.
+ Top fill system is preferable. + Two (2) replacement pods included.
Overall performance & hit is satisfied and the coil together with the draw gives a really Smooth operation.
Cons
- Drip tip is hard to remove in order to refill it. Not always but sometimes it gets slightly harder to remove need more practice on this.
Extra Tips
* Do NOT overfill. Refill always around 80%
* if you want tight draw cover the 1 or 2 airflow holes with some tape. It works that way although the default performance without covering the airflow is SMOOTH 100%. * * Best ratio for Caliburn is 60/40 or 65/35. Normal ratio 50-50 works ok with some small/tiny condensation
By Nicholas from London
I absolutely love this device. It’s small, easy to use, has exceptional flavour and the pods seem to last around 2.5-3weeks.
By GJ from Lincoln
This was my first pod vape, coming from a drop dead RDA and a background of sub ohm tank.
Will not be my last.
This is the closest to cigs I've ever got, especially using it with nic salts. Everything I've been looking for in a vape.
If you're someone who vapes, but still struggling with not having cigarettes, this might be for you. The draw is more satisfying than I expected. Flavour is excellent.
Don't even miss smoking with this, where as in the past I've always had a slight craving while vaping.
By Anonymous from Chester
I can only say it how it is for me but for example I’ve used mi pods, aspire nautilus, vaporesso aurora play, lost vape Orion DNA, Smok infinix and just fog mini fit. The Uwell caliburn in my opinion is by a mile best of all. I stumbled across it whilst watching a review for another device and then after reading a review on this page I thought I’d get one. I’ve got two now. I didn’t believe it when I read in the review about pod life being three weeks as I’ve only ever managed five days tops out of a pod before in any device. Ok I didn’t get three weeks but after two weeks and six days I really can’t complain. I only ever use one liquid which is hippie trail nasty salts 50/50 20 mg.
By Giles from Sussex
Love this little thing. It's compact, feels sturdy, it's comfortable to hold, and looks pretty slick (bought the red one). The pods are good, easier to fill than others. The flavour from coils is great for an mtl device. Prefer this to my Zlide tank, honestly. The glowing reviews are there for a reason, this thing is excellent.
By Rj
Definitely the best pod system I've used. Battery lasts a decent amount of time and the flavor is great. Great for when your out and about and don't want to carry a huge mod. The hit is also very satisfying. Going to give it a 8/10 as the auto draw feature only seems to work when the battery is more than 50%. Also another point of because sometimes juice comes out the tip. Nothing major, still a really good device that I will continue to use
By Vicky
Best pod system on the market! All the hype about this is true. I have had about 7/8 different pod kits costing a little to a lot more than this and not a single one is as good as this kit, the orion is very expensive and this far out shines it imo, flavour is outstanding for a pod kit, very lightweight and portable, battery is good but i have 2 so that i always have one charged as im a heavy vaper. Highly recommended product you will not be disappointed in this kit and great service as ever from vape club
By Redmanic from Birmingham
It is very easy to set up and the flavour you get is the best favour I have ever gotten from a pod system even better then my Orion quest highly recommend this vape
By Dan from Essex
This is the best pod/vape I have used for a long time and it's also a great price. The Caliburn has a great battery with a nice flavour. Direct to lung vapors will find this pod system easy to use, the Caliburn also produces a decent cloud without any burnt taste.
No leaking
No BS
Love it!
By Robert from Belfast
This pod has amazing flavour by far the best I've used could even compare it to some off the rta's I use! Also the best filling system as no more silly rubber plugs. great service from vape club as normal also
By Heidi.s from London
I’ve had the blue one for 2 months now and it hasn’t let me down yet. Pods are very good for flavour and last a long time - mainly using element key lime cookie ns10 and a pod lasts me about 3 weeks depending on usage. Although I am a DL vaper, I also DL on the caliburn too with no problem. Great value for money compared to most pod systems out there.
By Anonymous
Great little pod kit, great service from vape club as always.
By Crestfallen Warrior from Kent
Great Value, quick charging and compact
By Vaping-stag from Tain
I've previously had the aspire nautilus aio, smok Nord and orchid pod systems. Now the nautilus aio was good, smok Nord I didn't get the hype and the orchid was just not for me. The Caliburn is absolutely out of this world good and is worth so much more than the cost.
The flavour is outstanding. Right now I'm using dinner lady lemon sherbet nic salts and it's like I have a mouthful of the sweets. Firing without pressing a button is cool (I know that's sad but it is)
Forget about spending a £30-50+ on a pod system, grab this and you'll not regret it!
By Zoe
I wanted to buy a pod system, and a good looking one. I brought the smok slm first and did not really like it. I found this one on YouTube and decided I need to try it. Right after I got it and tried I ordered two more in different colours. Now I am using it for about a week and it is perfect! Nice looking and great in all the ways. Full charged battery last about 1 1/2 pod, charges really quick. I put different juices in different pods so I can switch them anytime I want.
I think I have found my device, for now.
By Lg from Hull
wow this is great by uwell they have mad a device that fires perfect every time on both either the button or direct in hale,ramps up fast and the battery is lasting all day for me easy i have tried chain vaping and have not had a dry hit once yet. it is very lite in your hand had no trouble carrying this at all when ive been out and about this is probably the best pod device i have used so far and the smok nord is my fave upto getting this i have tried nic salt liquid and i have even tried an 80/20 juice and it just has no trouble with anything ive used so far well worth the money for this device
By Liam
This is honestly great and lives up to my expectations after reading all of the reviews.
The only thing I would want is the addition of another type of pod which has a bit more or a restricted airflow for a tighter draw as this is quite a loose MTL, which is not generally my preference. The draw activated firing is phenomenal, you can get the Caliburn to fire by inhaling from across the room...
10/10 for me, even with the loose MTL!
By Berit from Hørsholm Denmark
I just received one of these and it almost blew me away...
It must be the best pod system at the moment.. I love it and just ordered one more...
