Not a massive pod user myself but I can't really fault this. Simple, classic design with a useful juice window. Coils seem pretty decent, and the price is reasonable too.
By CaliEdge
I have used many vapes in the past but not one as easy to use as this one. Love the inhale and button activation. Easy to refill and he coil in the pod has lasted 7 refills already….. that’s 14 disposables from 1 coil?!
CANT FAULT THIS AT ALL!
By Samantha from Belfast
Very happy with my calliburn a2 kit. Very easy to use and a nice feel to the vape. Pods easy enough to open as well.
By Josh from Romford
Both my wife and I have these and they are brilliant, so easy to use, great value and great flavour. Pods last quite a while. Battery could be better but what do you want to £16
By Carla from South Wales
I bought the A2 in February after deciding to quit cigarettes. I have tried many times over the years, but always ended up smoking cigarettes after a couple of weeks, as I got fed up with coils burning out quickly or just lack of flavour and satisfaction from a traditional vape. I read loads of reviews trying to find a device that produces great flavour and is really easy to use. Went with the A2 and I can't recommend it highly enough, it's been so easy, and the flavour is just amazing! The day I got it I quit cigarettes and not touched one since (started on 10mg and am now on 6mg, soon to lowering to 3mg nic salts)
By Go from Derby
Perfect kit,it s my second a2 kit,my first start auto burn because of leaking pods,i bought an G2 to replace my a2 but I didn’t like it at all draw is different to a2,and it’s even more leaking,so i bought my 3rd Caliburn device which is a2 and nothing can replace it
By Abbey
Great hassle-free and lightweight starter vape. Easy to use and change pods
By ViVi from UK
This vape is nice and light so its much easier for me to carry around compared to the other vapes I've had. Its great how when using the vape, you can either press the button on the front or just inhale from the top, the only downside to this is remembering to lock it up when in a pocket as the air might make it turn on (happened to me a few times lol) the battery lasts all day and this is fairly surprising as most vapes leave me dissatisfied as i usually only get 5-6 hours with them. The only real issue with this vape is the leaking that occurs from time to time.

Got this as I wanted a hassle free pod system that utilizes a 2 in 1 pod/coil system. Works really well with nic salts and is just overall a decent hassle free vape. I wish the battery on these things was slightly bigger but not much a problem if you have a charger on hand.
By TheChap from Wales
The A2 is a great but ultimately flawed system.
The flavour is beyond great, vapour production imho is perfect for a Mel device, battery life and charge time are fantastic, aesthetically and ergonomically it is a sleek and well crafted if a little too heavy to be held in mouth as you would an analogue.
Such a shame that it is let down by the near constant leaking pods. I cannot recall having a single pod not leak from the bottom. Over time the drip drip of liquid into the guts of the device causes connection issues, stickiness and worst of all problems with the electronics such as auto firing and inhale activation breaking. I have had 3 A2 and all have perished the same way, my wife is on her second and is fighting the dreaded auto fire already.
This issue is so wide spread if you search ‘Caliburn leaking’ you will find hundreds of reports of it.
Buyer Beware.
By Matt from Manchester
Other reviews mention leaking, there was an issue with the previous batch of pods but mine purchased mid April was all good.
Perfect vape for me, very light weight but nice build quality, feels like it's designed to go in your mouth unlike the weird Duplo block caliburn G. great alternative to disposables, easy autodraw activation, I'm a cigarette style vaper in that I take 5-10 puffs every hour or so, the caliburn meets my demands but these little pod devices can face problems
May as well share some tips and tricks from a vet caliburn user.
-decant liquid into needle nose bottles, if your nozzle plugs the fill port then every squeeze is putting air pressure on the seals and massively reduces lifespan
- when filling for the first time, place your finger over the air intake and inhale gently until bubbles appear- too much will flood and not be great.
-if the fill port seal breaks you'll notice red silicone floating in your pod, the spitback will be way too mucbto use it. In a pinch you can ball up a tiny amount of tissue and plug it up, it's not ideal but I've accidentally broke brand new pods, took a drink, done this then they hit perfect again.
-accept your fate with the liquid you use. These pods are great but unfortunately sweet liquids are especially brutal on them, sticky mango ice or sour gummy worm flavours will have you slurping brown sludge before you can even finish a tank. I never have this problem as I like "clean" menthols, but if anything it's an argument for getting into DIY.
By Heather from South Shields
This is the 2nd caliburn i have bought and the device is brilliant but the problem is that the replacement pods constantly leaking out of 8 pods i have bought only 2 have not leaked disappointed
By Anonymous
Good product overall but had some faults with it auto firing just make sure you keep cleaning your pods as they leak from the magnet area
By Wildpaw from United Kingdom
I almost got caught up in the disposables, which are both comparatively expensive and really bad for the environment in today's society. My Voopoo ran out of charge when I was out, so legged it to the garage and bought a disposable, the flavour was so good, I kept buying them and didn't go back to my Voopoo, it wasn't the same anymore, but I didn't want to go down that route, so I figured it must be possible to get similar flavour hit, and this kit is a suitable replacement.
Yes, you have to keep buying the pods once a week or so, but £3 is what I used to spend on coils so it's similar cost wise. My first juice purchases with this were the free one (I went for the orange, it's really not bad, full of flavour) then I filled the other included pod up with Dr Vapes Blue Panther (Raspberry) and got pleasant flavour from that too, I just swap the pods over once or twice a day for variety. Can't complain about the price at all, I have had this kit 4 days and it's already pretty much paid for itself over those nasty disposables.
Free next day delivery too from Vapeclub.

I switched to caliburn after using a Juul for about 5 years. The battery life is great- I only have to charge once every 4-6 hours and that’s with regular use compared to my juul which died after about 2 hours. Sometimes the pods leak which is annoying but doesn’t bother me too much as it’s easy to clean.
By Anonymous
Very good to start off with but after a while pod starts to leak which runs into the terminal which causes problems better devices out there for similar price
By Dan
I've been vaping geek bars and elf bars for a while now, and wanted to move to a non disposable alternative. As a beginner, this vape is everything I wanted. It hits good and is really easy to use. The tip is a little hard to take off the pods at first, can't pull it off for the life of me. I found using a guitar pic to get it off works the best. No leaking issues at all.
By AdamZero from Sheffield
Bought a 2nd A2 as I find the battery lasts ½ a day.
Loving the device its self. When I first started using my original a2 I encountered a few leaks. This was a mix of my fault and bad instructions. It has no max fill line, however it leaks if you over fill it. It also is quite hard to remove the drip tip on a new pod, to the point where you feel like you could break it.
When removing the tip it's really important to follow the instructions, I have said this before DON'T COPY THE METHOD OF PEOPLE ON YOUTUBE. If you copy people on YouTube you will get leaking, on YouTube you will find people removing the pod from the battery & pinching the pod to remove the tip.
Flavour really comes out with the A2, that's why I bought a 2nd. It's an easy vape pod that works well.
What I will say is a little disappointing is the battery, its advertised size is 520 mAh. However i have checked the mAh on both batteries that I own as I have a voltage tester attached to the charge cable. From dead to full it measures only 480-489mah.
I understand it doesn't ever get to 0 in the battery to avoid undervolting during vaping but maybe don't adverise unusable mAh. I'd find it more acceptable if they advertised it as 500 mAh.
By MR from Leeds
I found the device leaked quite a lot even after replacing the pod with a new one. At one point the juice had leaked through the device and was coming out of the charge port at the bottom. After this the device was starting to vape when the button wasn’t pressed. Very disappointed as other reviews made me purchase this… (was using 50vg/50pg liquid) when using the device it was actually good, you can even use it for RDL.
By Zeke from Derbyshire
Nice slim vape with easy to replace coil pods, 100% recommend for beginners or anyone who wants something a bit more discreet/small.
By AdamZero from Sheffield
The A2 fits exactly with what I was looking for, simplicity, No variable power a single type of coil built into a pod and a perfectly flavourful vape every time.
Some reviews mention leakage, yes it can happen if you open the pod while it isn't attached to the battery or if you fill the pod almost to the top. Do not be tempted to open the pods by squeezing them like some of the video reviews show.
The battery life could be better, however I like everything else about it, my advice is buy 2, I have decided to buy a 2nd just so I can avoid that 25 mins charging time.
The power seems almost completely uniform the first few drags may be just a little more powerful and the last couple just very slightly weaker but it's almost undetectable.
It loses 1 star for battery life and 1 star for the fact it is slightly leaky if filled up too much and it doesn't indicate where too much is.
BTW if you have it and get a leak remove the pod, lay it on is side for 15 mins and wipe the connection, pop it back in and take a drag and it doesn't continue to leak.
By Scott
good kit for starters or experianced vapers who just want something quick and easy. pods are liable to leak if too thin a juice is used but thats advised against anyway. highly recomened the kit
By Anonymous
This vape is so good for beginners it’s really easy to refill, and it’s small which makes it easy to fit in pockets or bags
By Tom from London
Returning to vaping after heavy smoking for the last 7 years. Did quite a bit of research and decided this would be a good place to start, and was spot on. The easy of use of the pods and the flavor produced is excellent, even vaping 70/30 the pods last a good couple of weeks. the only downside is the battery size wish it was a bit bigger, but and excellent device to help get of the smokes.
By Connor
One of the best pods i have ever tried and so convenient, would happily own multiple of these for flavours and colours.
By Miller from Lincolnshire
super easy to use, great flavour production blown away buy the quality of the product
By Savanna from Newcastle
I used to have a big tank and mod but wanted to down size and wanted something that was less maintenance and this is definitely a winner. Recommend the Caliburn A2 to anyone. It still delivers great flavour and big clouds if thats how you choose to use it. Not to mention the coil only takes 10 minutes to soak before you can use. Very happy :)
By VapeDBag from UK
Really great product. This is my everyday go too vape. My partner also bought one after trying mine and they also use theirs everyday! Highly recommend. Very smart and tactile, feels amazing in the hand. If you want to stop smoking then defo give this a try!
By J Taylor from London
Used to using a mod vape which is straight to lung, but got fed up with the large battery and coil changes, took a bit of getting use to mtl but I must say for the price this is a good bit of kit! Light and easy to carry, very easy to use.
By Alexandra from UK
Doesn't come with a charger, arrived only yesterday and on my 3rd pod as it leaks everywhere.
By Calum
Brilliant device and pods that came with it were spot on, just what I was looking for.
Replacement pods have had a couple of duds after 2 packs (very leaky) but the ones that have worked are amazing.
By SH from Cambridge, UK
I switched up to this from my Aspire Tigon as I'm getting fed up of constantly cleaning and replacing the coils which can be annoying leading me to sometimes vape on a burnt coil as I don't always have time to change the coils and clean the tank.
This Caliburn is so easy to change the pods! also putting in liquid couldn't be easier, not messy at all and quick. The taste of my vape juice is soooo much better on this with the mesh coils. The auto draw is such a good feature on this.
Only negative I have is it does run out of power quick (1 charge a day at the moment but I can see it getting more charges a day over time with battery health).
By Aimee
overall great product, feels nice in my hand, has a really good feeling mouthpiece and the flavour is strong
By Matt from Devon
How far we have come.
This is perfection pretty much.
My first one had a contact fall out (first batch issue I guess) but VapeClub sent a replacement delivered within 24 hours.
Then I ran over it (twice) and had to order a replacement! That is going strong, having tried the OG, the Caliburn G I can definitely say this is the one.
Buy without hesitation.

There’s a reason why the caliburn devices are rated so highly. They are reliable, simple to use and the coils have a good lifespan. One thing I would say is that the air holes by the connection points can easily get clogged, so don’t leave the device ‘pod less’ in places like your bag or pocket. One of my caliburns doesn’t vape as well now for that reason. That’s definitely my own fault but otherwise it’s the perfect device.
By WALLIE from Yorkshire
Really good bit of kit, this is my first pod but i have been impressed with it. Iv managed 8 days without a cigarette just using this! So far so good!
By Beau from London
I’ve been using a Caliburn in some shape or form since the first iteration. The new additions to the A2 are welcome and the vape is great. Wicked flavour as well. Highly recommended!
By Blind Vaper from Scotland
Lovely smooth vape, great flavour. Perfect for a new user or a pocket friendly mod for anyone.
By MikeT from Middlesbrough
I bought this after a recommendation from the Vape Club customer service team. This is my 1st time using a pod device so I was unsure what to expect.
I set it up and primed coil as per instructions and gave it a go after 10 mins.
The vape is lovely and smooth and has a good mouth feel It produces a decent amount of cloud for such a small unit.
If you are thinking about getting one then don’t hesitate, especially at this price.
Great service and delivery from Vape club again.
By Dean from Barnsley
It was okays yesterday today just leaking all the time like the caliburn g pods might try the Vaporesso luxe Q next wasting too much money
By Dean from Barnsley
This I prefer to the caliburn g very nice hit and really simple mouth piece is well better than the g too so yes so far so good and thanks to vape club they gave me a usb type c charger
By PaPaRumple from Redhill
I was hesitant at first because coils could not be changed but the pods are affordable and I have had no leakage what so ever. The magnetic pod hold is great, flavour is on point and draw activation is imediate and consistent. I was using the koko prime but this is now my new vape.
By Henry
Great device, do I prefer it to the original caliburn? I don't think so. Still 10/10 though. Does drink more juice than the original. Might start using it with shortfills rather than nic salts
By New Vaper
Wow, first vape pod and how easy to use!
Fill pod, pop in and go, love it!
The rainbow/iris colour is great, kind of brushed metal finish so not too slippy, feels great in the hand
Easy to charge, I have Samsung phones so type c makes life easy for me.
Really happy with delivery, less than 24 hours.
By Kev from Norfolk
Bought two of these ecigs and to be honest they are really great.. But, the pods appear to have a design flaw, 90% Of the pods I used had the tendency to dump all the eliquid out of the bottom of the pods and into the ecig. We went through 2 boxes of 4, plus the 2 that come with the Caliburn A2, in less than 2 weeks. Hence the 5 stars!
Vapeclub have been excellent in sorting this out, obviously they can’t sort out the fault but they are sending me 2 new different make ecigs to replace these. Brilliant customer service guys!
By SteveOH from UK
A big step up from the caliburn koko prime, Ive only had this device for less than a week but from my experiance so far its a fantastic mtl vape. Flavour is great, pods are good value and the fact it has a power button plus auto inhale feature makes it better.
One thing is that on this device the auto inhale is actully very good, at least compared with the koko prime which I could never get the draw I wanted,
Overall I am so happy with this device and have had no leakages so far.
Battery is actually decent for a days vape, if u dont go crazy. And if you do, it charges up fast so no problems.
By Cj from Mercia
Flavour is superb. Just like the caliburn g only with a more comfortable mouth piece.
By Sully from Birmingham
Amazing vape.
Really fits well between the original Caliburn and the Caliburn G which I’ve constantly had for the last 2 years. It looks sleek and has an amazing colour. I found the smoke to be perfect not restricted or airy and the new hole they’ve created makes life so much easier to see the liquid level. Downside is I found it a bit too smooth and can slip out of your hand (not that it’s slipped out of mine). It actually fits the gap well, the G was beginning to bore me in glad they brought this A2 out!! £17.95 well worth it
By Amber J from Alfreton
Trying to quit smoking and this is perfect for it. Great for getting nicotine without smoking, overall very happy with my purchase and I heavily reccomend for newer vapers for sure. Came with free liquid too.
By Zakariya
Here’s my review on the Uwell Caliburn A2, Let me start off saying this is the best caliburn yet and I have tried all 3, I much prefer the smooth finish on this rather than the surface of the Caliburn G. The Flavour is better than the Caliburn G and you have a window to see your liquid level which is a very big pro. A downside is that it is a disposable pod rather than a replaceable coil, also how there isn’t an Airflow Control like on the Caliburn G and another downside to some maybe that it doesn’t come with a USB C but for the price of this device, overall i’d say Its differently worth getting, Uwell once again doesn’t disappoint with their devices.
By BazL from Oldham
OK, so I’ve bought nearly every DECENT pod system from every company, including all the Caliburn/KOKO devices. Bottom line: This is the best Uwell have made so far, if you like pods just buy it, simple as that! Big thanks to VC for their amazing speedy service as always!
By Adan from Antrim
this is probably the smoothest pod system I've ever owned, I've always craved my caliburn and was hoping for an upgrade, this delivers.
By Yolanda from London
I was a HUGE fan of the old Uwell Caliburn, so didn’t really know how they could make it even better. But they really have! First off the Caliburn A2 has a nicer weight to it and feels more expensive (even though it’s cheaper). I also found that it recharges really quickly, which is handy for me because I’m away all day for work. As a little bonus, there’s also a window on the Caliburn so you can see how much juice is left. The best part is how it vapes, it has a bigger button that’s easier to press and when I have it unlocked I can just take a drag (feels like a cigarette more). I’ve only had it a few days but the pods are good too, proper flavour which is rare from a small kit.
