Blue Raspberry Ice Vape
Nine products carry the Blue Raspberry Ice recipe, and they run from £0.49 to £13.95. That gap is not a quality ladder. At the bottom of it sits a two-pod refill pack; at the top sits a complete pod device with a 12ml capacity and a touch battery display. Everything in between is a different answer to one question: which piece of hardware do you want this particular flavour to live in?
The taste is consistent in character right across the shelf. A confected blue raspberry, brighter and more acidic than the garden fruit, with a cooling layer laid over the top of it. What changes from product to product is less the recipe than the amount of vapour each device makes per puff and how tight the draw through it is, and those two things decide how cold the exhale actually reads. A 2ml puff from the IVG 2400 Blue Raspberry Ice X2 Reload Pods and a full lungful off the IVG Shortfill 70/30 Blue Raspberry Ice E-Liquid in a sub-ohm tank are the same flavour family at two very different intensities.
Settle the format before you settle the price. Three mutually incompatible pod systems are represented on this shelf, plus one bottle of liquid that fits none of them. Choosing a pod that will not slide into the device already in your pocket is the only real mistake available here, and it is an easy one to make when four of the nine products look broadly alike in a product photograph.
Where this shelf starts and where it stops
Blue Raspberry Ice is a narrow flavour, and the nine products gathered under it are narrower still. They are all the same IVG liquid recipe, decanted into different containers at different capacities for different devices. Saying that plainly at the start saves a lot of scrolling, because a grid of nine can look like nine tastes when it is really one taste and eight decisions about hardware, capacity and how often you want to buy again.
The boundary on one side is the fruit. Blue raspberry is not a raspberry. It is a confectionery profile that borrows the name, built to be sharper on the acid, louder on the sugar and much more obviously artificial than anything picked off a cane. It has a high, almost boiled-sweet top note that real raspberry simply does not carry. If the darker, jammier, seed-and-skin reading of the fruit is what you are after, that sits on the wider Raspberry Vape shelf, which shares eight of these nine products but also carries raspberry blends and plain raspberry recipes that never go anywhere near a blue confectionery note.
The boundary on the other side is the coolant. Take the ice out and you land on the Blue Raspberry Vape shelf, which holds six of these nine alongside the uncooled treatments of the same idea. Take the fruit out instead and you are on the Ice Vape shelf, which runs from straight menthol through mint to every other fruit IVG has put a cooling agent behind. This shelf is the overlap of the two: fruit and coolant, both present, neither of them optional.
Several things are deliberately not here. There are no blue raspberry blends, so no blue raspberry with lemon, cherry or mango. There are no uncooled versions of the recipe. There are no single-use devices at all: every product on this shelf is either a rechargeable pod device, a pod for one, or a bottle of liquid, which is why seven of the nine also appear on the Disposable Vape Alternatives and Big Puff Vapes shelves rather than in any disposable listing. And there is no coil, tank or spare glass, because none of these devices takes a serviceable coil.
Because this is a flavour shelf rather than a product range, it cuts across four separate IVG hardware families at once. The IVG 2400 & Reload Mini Range supplies the small 2ml pods. The IVG PRO Range and the IVG PRO 2 10K Range share one 12ml pod platform between them. The IVG SMART MAX Range runs a 12ml platform of its own. Sitting outside all of that is a bottle of free-pour liquid. If you want to see how the flavour fits into the broader catalogue rather than the broader range, the IVG Vapes shelf and the full listing of all IVG products are the wider views.
What the coolant is actually doing to the fruit
The word Ice on an IVG label describes a layer sitting on top of a finished flavour rather than a change to the fruit underneath it. That distinction matters more than it sounds, because blue raspberry on its own is a front-loaded flavour. The sweetness and the acid both arrive early, peak fast, and then trail away into a slightly syrupy tail that a fair number of people find heavy by the tenth or eleventh puff of an evening. The coolant does its work at the far end of the puff, not the near end.
Follow a single puff through. On the draw, the confectionery sweetness and the acid edge arrive more or less unchanged; a cooling agent contributes nothing at that stage. Halfway through, the sugar note peaks and the blue raspberry reads at full volume. Only on the exhale, and particularly in the part of the exhale that goes out through the nose, does the cold register properly, and what it does there is cut the syrupy tail short. That truncation is the entire point of an iced fruit. The finished liquid reads drier and more acidic than the uncooled recipe even though the sweetener content has not moved a milligram.
Cooling agents used in vape liquid fall broadly into two camps, and which camp a recipe draws on changes the result considerably. Menthol brings a cold sensation and a strong herbal, minty character of its own, so a menthol-led ice leaves a green ghost sitting behind the fruit. The synthetic cooling compounds produce the cold with very little taste attached, so a coolant-led ice leaves the fruit alone and simply chills it. IVG describes the finish on the IVG PRO 10K Blue Raspberry Ice Vape Kit as an icy menthol one, while the wording on the IVG 2400 Blue Raspberry Ice X2 Reload Pods and the IVG SMART MAX Blue Raspberry Ice Refill Pod talks about a cool or frosty finish without naming menthol at all. Vaped side by side, the shelf as a whole sits closer to the second camp: cold rather than minty, with only a faint green edge on the longest exhales.
Perceived ice level is a hardware variable at least as much as a recipe variable, which is the single most useful thing to understand before comparing any two products here. The same quantity of coolant vaporised into a small, restricted mouth-to-lung puff arrives concentrated into a small volume of dense vapour, so it reads as a sharp, pointed cold at the back of the throat. Vaporised into a large, airy direct-to-lung inhale it is spread across far more vapour, but there is far more of it in absolute terms, so it reads as a broad, enveloping chill across the whole mouth. Neither is stronger in any measurable sense. They feel completely different.
Nicotine strength interacts with the coolant too. At 20mg, nicotine salt contributes a slight peppery weight at the back of the throat, and the coolant sharpens that weight into something more defined. At 10mg the fruit is more exposed and the confectionery sugar comes through with less competition. At 0mg, which the IVG PRO 10K Blue Raspberry Ice Prefilled Pod and the shortfill both offer, nothing is competing at all and the ice becomes the loudest element in the puff by a clear margin. People moving between strengths on this flavour often report the ice as having changed when what has actually changed is what was sitting underneath it.
One thing coolant does not do is make the liquid contain less sweetener. It changes how sweet the liquid tastes, not how much sugar-analogue is dissolved in it, and that distinction has practical consequences for how these pods age. That is worth a section of its own further down.
The nine, in four honest groups
Grouping nine near-identical products by flavour would be a waste of everyone's time, because the flavour is the constant. The useful split is by pod platform and outlay, which is what actually differs. Four groups cover the shelf without forcing anything.
1. Small pods, low outlay: the Reload platform
Two products here, and together they cost less than £2. The IVG Reload Mini Blue Raspberry Ice Vape Kit at £1.49 is a complete rechargeable device with one 2ml prefilled pod already in it at 20mg nicotine salt, a Type-C charging port and a restricted mouth-to-lung draw. The IVG 2400 Blue Raspberry Ice X2 Reload Pods at £0.49 is two more of the same 2ml pods, again at 20mg, each on its own mesh coil. IVG rates each 2ml pod, in laboratory conditions, at up to 600 puffs.
This is the group for someone who wants the flavour in a coat pocket with almost nothing committed, or who already owns a Reload Mini or a 2400 and simply needs liquid. The honest trade-off is frequency. Two millilitres is not much capacity, so you will be changing pods often. The compensation is real though: every pod change is also a coil change, so the flavour never has the chance to go flat the way it does on a large pod worked hard for a fortnight. Blue raspberry is a sweetened recipe and it degrades noticeably on a tired coil, so there is a genuine argument for small pods with this flavour that does not apply to a light citrus.
Both products sit on the 20mg Vape Kits & Refill Pods shelf and neither is offered at any other strength. If 10mg matters to you, this group is out and one of the 12ml systems is where to look. Both also belong to the IVG 2400 & Reload Mini Range, which is the place to browse if you want other flavours on the same pods.
2. Four pods loaded at once: the IVG 2400 4-in-1
The IVG 2400 4-in-1 Blue Raspberry Ice Vape Kit at £6.99 is structurally different from everything else on the shelf. The device holds four 2ml pods simultaneously, and you rotate the body to select which one is live. In this configuration all four pods are Blue Raspberry Ice, which means the rotation is doing nothing for flavour variety and everything for run time: 8ml of liquid on board, but spread across four separate coils rather than one.
That arrangement has a specific advantage with a sweetened recipe. Rather than one coil taking the full 8ml of sweetener residue, each coil takes a quarter of it, so the last pod in the rotation tastes essentially the same as the first. On a single-coil device carrying the same volume, the last two millilitres are usually noticeably duller than the first two. The 2400 is also the only device on this shelf that lets you carry a second flavour without carrying a second device, because any Reload pod fits the same slots.
Against that, it is the largest device here and it is fixed at 20mg. The kit ships as a complete package with the four pods, a manual and a flavour list, and it recharges over USB. It sits on the Big Puff Vapes and Disposable Vape Alternatives shelves, and on the IVG 2400 & Reload Mini Range alongside the pods that feed it.
3. The 12ml systems: PRO, PRO 2 and SMART MAX
Three devices and two refills, and this is where most of the money on the shelf is. All of them use the same basic idea: a 2ml pod with a 0.8 ohm mesh coil, plus a 10ml refill container that clicks onto the pod and tops it up without any liquid touching your hands. Twelve millilitres in total per refill. IVG rates a full 12ml pod, again as a laboratory estimate, at up to 10,000 puffs.
The IVG PRO 10K Blue Raspberry Ice Vape Kit at £10.95 is the established version. It ships with the device, a 2ml pod and a 10ml container, and it is offered in 0mg, 10mg and 20mg. The IVG PRO 2 10K Blue Raspberry Ice Vape Kit at £13.95 is the newer body: 75mm by 49.5mm by 28mm, Type-C fast charging and a touch battery display that shows charge state without guesswork. The £3 between them buys the display and the newer chassis and nothing else, because both devices take exactly the same pod. That is the most straightforward decision on this shelf. If you like a battery readout, pay the £3; if you do not, do not.
The IVG SMART MAX Blue Raspberry Ice Vape Kit, also at £10.95, looks like a neighbour and is not. It runs a 1000mAh battery, a 0.8 ohm mesh coil and a display showing battery percentage, charging progress and a choice between Eco and Boost modes, which trade vapour volume against battery life. It weighs around 90g. Crucially it uses its own pod platform, so buying it commits you to the IVG SMART MAX Blue Raspberry Ice Refill Pod at £7.95 rather than the PRO refill. Choosing between the SMART MAX kit and the PRO kit at the same £10.95 is therefore not a device comparison, it is a decision about which refill line you want to be buying from for the next year.
The two refills are priced identically at £7.95 for 12ml. The IVG PRO 10K Blue Raspberry Ice Prefilled Pod comes in 0mg, 10mg and 20mg; the SMART MAX pod comes in 10mg and 20mg. On the flavour itself, the Boost mode on the SMART MAX pushes more vapour per puff and, for the reasons set out above, that lands as a colder exhale, so the same liquid can feel meaningfully icier on a SMART MAX in Boost than it does on a PRO. Anyone who finds the ice a shade too much will get a more restrained result running Eco. All five products in this group appear across the IVG Prefilled Pods, 20mg Vape Kits & Refill Pods and Big Puff Vapes shelves, and the 10mg options also list under 10mg Vape Kits & Refill Pods.
4. Off the pod grid entirely: the 100ml shortfill
The IVG Shortfill 70/30 Blue Raspberry Ice E-Liquid at £1.99 is the odd one out and the cheapest liquid on the shelf by a very wide margin. It is 100ml of nicotine-free liquid in a 120ml bottle at a 70/30 VG/PG ratio, intended for sub-ohm and direct-to-lung tanks, with the headroom in the bottle left deliberately empty so one or two nicotine shots can be added, taking the finished bottle to a maximum of 3mg.
It needs hardware you already own. There is no device, no pod and no coil in the box, so it is only useful to someone with a refillable tank sitting on a shelf. What you get for that is a completely different reading of the same flavour. The high VG ratio rounds off the sharp confectionery peak slightly and gives the sugar a thicker, more rolling texture, while the coolant spreads across a much larger volume of vapour and reads as a broad chill rather than the pointed cold of a 2ml pod. It is the same recipe and it does not taste the same, which is a useful thing to know before assuming a pod tasting will predict how the bottle behaves. It sits on the Nicotine-Free Vape shelf along with the 0mg variants of the PRO products.
The decisions this shelf actually puts in front of you
Start with the only question that can render the rest irrelevant: do you already own one of these devices? If there is a PRO or a PRO 2 in your pocket, the answer is the £7.95 IVG PRO 10K Blue Raspberry Ice Prefilled Pod and nothing else on this page applies. If it is a SMART MAX, the answer is the IVG SMART MAX Blue Raspberry Ice Refill Pod at the same price. If it is a Reload Mini or a 2400, the answer is the 49p IVG 2400 Blue Raspberry Ice X2 Reload Pods. Roughly two thirds of the traffic to a shelf like this is a repeat purchase, and for those visitors the page is three lines long.
If you are choosing hardware as well, the first real fork is capacity against outlay. The Reload route puts you in the flavour for £1.49 and asks for small, frequent top-ups. The 12ml route asks for £10.95 or £13.95 up front and then £7.95 for six times the liquid. Over a month there is very little in it financially; over a year the 12ml systems are cheaper per millilitre, but they also mean carrying a larger device and living with a single coil for longer. Neither is the obviously correct answer, and anyone telling you it is has not worked out the arithmetic.
The second fork is strength, and it is partly decided for you by what each product is offered in. Twenty milligrams is the only option on the Reload pods, the IVG Reload Mini Blue Raspberry Ice Vape Kit, the IVG 2400 4-in-1 Blue Raspberry Ice Vape Kit and the IVG PRO 2 10K Blue Raspberry Ice Vape Kit. Ten and twenty milligrams are both available on the two SMART MAX products. The PRO refill and the IVG PRO 10K Blue Raspberry Ice Vape Kit are the only products on the shelf offered in 0mg, 10mg and 20mg alike. If you want flexibility to change strength without changing device, that fact alone narrows the field to the PRO platform. The 10mg Vape Kits & Refill Pods and 20mg Vape Kits & Refill Pods shelves list the shelf by strength if that is your starting point.
The third fork is variety. Eight of the nine products here lock you to one flavour at a time. The IVG 2400 4-in-1 Blue Raspberry Ice Vape Kit does not, because four pods sit in the device at once and any Reload pod will fill any of the four slots. If you like blue raspberry but do not want it for eleven hours a day, that is a real structural advantage and it is worth the £6.99 on its own terms, separate from anything to do with capacity.
The fourth is how cold you want it. This is the one nobody asks and everybody notices. Ordered roughly from most restrained to most pronounced as vaped: the shortfill in a low-powered tank, then the 2ml Reload pods, then the PRO pod, then the SMART MAX pod in Eco, then the SMART MAX pod in Boost, then the shortfill in a high-powered sub-ohm tank, which is in a different league to everything else. The liquid barely changes across that list. The hardware does all of it.
Formats, pods and what genuinely interchanges
Three pod families are present on this shelf and none of them is compatible with either of the others. This catches people out regularly, because the pods are of similar size and all of them are described as prefilled 2ml pods.
| Product | Price | Format | Strengths |
| 2400 Blue Raspberry Ice X2 Reload Pods | £0.49 | 2 x 2ml pods, Reload platform | 20mg |
| Reload Mini Blue Raspberry Ice Vape Kit | £1.49 | Device plus one 2ml pod | 20mg |
| Shortfill 70/30 Blue Raspberry Ice E-Liquid | £1.99 | 100ml bottle, no device | 0mg |
| 2400 4-in-1 Blue Raspberry Ice Vape Kit | £6.99 | Device plus four 2ml pods | 20mg |
| PRO 10K Blue Raspberry Ice Prefilled Pod | £7.95 | 2ml pod plus 10ml container | 0mg, 10mg, 20mg |
| SMART MAX Blue Raspberry Ice Refill Pod | £7.95 | 2ml pod plus 10ml container | 10mg, 20mg |
| PRO 10K Blue Raspberry Ice Vape Kit | £10.95 | Device plus 12ml pod system | 0mg, 10mg, 20mg |
| SMART MAX Blue Raspberry Ice Vape Kit | £10.95 | Device plus 12ml pod system | 10mg, 20mg |
| PRO 2 10K Blue Raspberry Ice Vape Kit | £13.95 | Device plus 12ml pod system | 20mg |
The Reload pod is the small one. It is a sealed 2ml unit with its own mesh coil, and it fits both the 2400 4-in-1 and the Reload Mini. Nothing else on this shelf takes it, and it takes nothing else. Two of them click together in the retail pack and separate for use. Because the coil is inside the pod, a Reload pod is a consumable in the fullest sense: when the flavour goes, the coil goes with it, and there is no cleaning or priming to think about.
The PRO pod is the 12ml one, and it is shared. IVG states explicitly that the same refill pod serves both the PRO 10K and the PRO 2 10K, which is the reason the IVG PRO 10K Blue Raspberry Ice Prefilled Pod is worth calling out as the most portable purchase on the shelf: it will still be the right pod if you upgrade the body. The pod carries a 0.8 ohm mesh coil and arrives with 2ml in it plus a separate 10ml container. You click the container onto the pod, it fills, you remove it and keep it for the next top-up until the 10ml is gone.
The SMART MAX pod is dimensionally its own thing. Same headline numbers, 2ml plus 10ml and a 0.8 ohm mesh coil, but it is designed around the SMART MAX chassis and its Eco and Boost modes, and it is not offered as a PRO-compatible part. Treat the IVG SMART MAX Range and the IVG PRO Range as two separate ecosystems that happen to share a flavour list. The IVG Prefilled Pods shelf lists every prefilled pod IVG makes if you need to check a fitment across the wider range.
The shortfill is not a pod at all. It is free liquid for a refillable tank, and the 70/30 VG/PG ratio tells you what kind: thick enough for a sub-ohm coil to wick properly, too thick for a high-resistance mouth-to-lung tank to keep up with. Putting it in a pod device from this shelf is not possible, because none of them opens for filling.
How an iced recipe wears a coil
Sweetened fruit liquids are harder on a coil than most other flavour categories, and blue raspberry is a sweetened fruit liquid. The sweetener is the culprit, not the coolant. Sucralose and its relatives do not fully vaporise; a proportion caramelises onto the mesh and builds a dark residue that progressively muffles the flavour coming off it. Coolants, by contrast, vaporise away and leave almost nothing behind.
The consequence is a distinctive ageing pattern that is specific to iced sweet fruits and genuinely useful to recognise. The fruit goes first. Somewhere around the two-thirds mark on a 12ml pod, the confectionery top note starts to dull and the acid edge flattens out, while the cold keeps arriving at full strength because nothing is impeding it. The result is a pod that tastes increasingly like cold water with a faint tart memory in it. People describe this as the flavour running out. What is actually happening is that one half of the recipe is being filtered by residue and the other half is not.
This has two practical implications on this shelf. The first is that it makes the four-coil arrangement on the IVG 2400 4-in-1 Blue Raspberry Ice Vape Kit more appealing with this flavour than it would be with something light and unsweetened. The second is that the cooling can sit on top of the early signals that a pod is running dry, so an iced pod tends to get pushed further than a plain one before the user accepts it is finished. If a pod has gone thin and cold, it has usually been thin and cold for a while.
Storage is undemanding by comparison. Nothing in an iced fruit recipe needs steeping the way a heavy dessert or cream recipe does, so a fresh pod or a fresh bottle of the IVG Shortfill 70/30 Blue Raspberry Ice E-Liquid tastes the way it is going to taste from the first puff. Keep liquid out of direct sunlight and away from heat, which degrades the more volatile top notes first and will cost you exactly the part of this flavour you bought it for.
What the price spread buys
The £0.49 to £13.95 range on this shelf is wide enough to look confusing and resolves quickly once you convert it to liquid. The IVG 2400 Blue Raspberry Ice X2 Reload Pods give 4ml for 49p, which works out around 12p per millilitre. The two 12ml refills at £7.95 work out around 66p per millilitre. The IVG Shortfill 70/30 Blue Raspberry Ice E-Liquid gives 100ml for £1.99, roughly 2p per millilitre, and is the outlier by an order of magnitude in both directions: cheapest per millilitre, and the only one requiring hardware you have to supply yourself.
Those numbers do not settle anything on their own, because the refill pods include a fresh coil in every purchase and the shortfill does not. Buy 12ml of PRO liquid and you are also buying a new mesh coil; buy 12ml of shortfill and you are running it through a coil you already paid for and will keep using. That is most of the gap right there. The rest of it is convenience: the pod systems cannot leak on the way to work, and a 120ml bottle of 70/30 liquid can.
On the device side, the ladder is short and legible. £1.49 for the IVG Reload Mini Blue Raspberry Ice Vape Kit, £6.99 for the IVG 2400 4-in-1 Blue Raspberry Ice Vape Kit, £10.95 for either the IVG PRO 10K Blue Raspberry Ice Vape Kit or the IVG SMART MAX Blue Raspberry Ice Vape Kit, £13.95 for the IVG PRO 2 10K Blue Raspberry Ice Vape Kit. The first step up buys capacity and four coils. The second buys a 12ml pod platform, a mesh coil at 0.8 ohm and a rechargeable body designed to be kept. The third buys a touch battery display. Whether a display is worth £3 is a personal question and not one a shelf page can answer for you.
Where to go from here
If the ice is the part you want and the fruit is negotiable, the Ice Vape shelf carries the same cooling treatment applied across IVG's whole flavour list, and it shares seven products with this page. If the fruit is the part you want and the ice is not, the Blue Raspberry Vape shelf has the uncooled reading of the same confectionery profile, and the broader Raspberry Vape shelf goes further still into jammier and darker territory.
Coming at it from hardware instead, the IVG PRO Range and the IVG PRO 2 10K Range show the full flavour list on the shared 12ml pod, and the IVG SMART MAX Range does the same for its own platform. The IVG 2400 & Reload Mini Range covers the small-pod side. If you are only buying liquid, the IVG Prefilled Pods shelf collects every prefilled pod in one place, and the Nicotine-Free Vape shelf lists the 0mg options for anyone running without nicotine.
Filtering by strength instead, the 20mg Vape Kits & Refill Pods and 10mg Vape Kits & Refill Pods shelves cut across every range. For reusable devices generally there is the Disposable Vape Alternatives shelf, the higher-capacity devices are collected under Big Puff Vapes, and the complete catalogue of all IVG products sits behind the IVG Vapes listing.
Before you choose
Nine products, one flavour, three incompatible pod systems and a bottle. If you own the device already, the choice is made for you and costs between 49p and £7.95. If you do not, the honest summary is that the IVG Reload Mini Blue Raspberry Ice Vape Kit is the smallest commitment on the shelf, the IVG 2400 4-in-1 Blue Raspberry Ice Vape Kit handles a sweetened recipe better than any single-coil device here, the PRO platform gives you the widest choice of strengths and a pod that survives a hardware upgrade, and the SMART MAX gives you the most control over how cold the exhale lands.
None of these will taste identical to the others, despite the shared recipe, and that is the point worth taking away. Blue raspberry is a front-loaded, heavily sweetened flavour, and the coolant sitting behind it is amplified or muted by airflow, coil power and vapour volume more than by anything written on the label. Pick the hardware that suits how you vape and the flavour will follow it.
Strictly for adults aged 18 and over. Nicotine is an addictive substance.
Frequently asked questions
What does Blue Raspberry Ice actually taste like?
A confectionery blue raspberry with a cooling layer over the top. The inhale is sweet and distinctly acidic, closer to a boiled sweet than to the fruit itself, with a high top note that fresh raspberry does not have. The sugar peaks mid-puff. The cold only registers properly on the exhale, where it cuts the syrupy tail short and leaves the whole thing reading drier and sharper than the uncooled version of the same recipe. It is a bold, unsubtle flavour and it does not pretend otherwise.
How is this different from the plain Blue Raspberry shelf?
The fruit base is the same; the coolant is the difference. Without the ice, the sugar carries all the way through to the end of the exhale and the finish is longer and heavier. With it, the finish is truncated and the acid is more prominent. Six of the nine products here also appear on the Blue Raspberry Vape shelf because IVG lists them under both, but the uncooled flavours are the ones worth comparing against if you want to hear what the coolant is doing.
Which product on this shelf has the most ice?
That depends on the device rather than the liquid, which is why the question has no single answer. As vaped, the IVG SMART MAX Blue Raspberry Ice Vape Kit in Boost mode gives the coldest exhale of the pod devices, because it makes the most vapour per puff. The IVG Shortfill 70/30 Blue Raspberry Ice E-Liquid in a high-powered sub-ohm tank goes considerably further than any pod here, but that is your tank doing the work, not the bottle.
Do the pods interchange between these devices?
Only within their own family. The 2ml Reload pod fits the 2400 4-in-1 and the Reload Mini and nothing else. The 12ml PRO pod fits both the PRO 10K and the PRO 2 10K, which IVG states directly. The SMART MAX pod fits the SMART MAX only. Three families, no crossover. The IVG Prefilled Pods shelf is the place to confirm a fitment before ordering.
Can I put a SMART MAX pod in a PRO device?
No. They share headline specifications, 2ml plus a 10ml refill container and a 0.8 ohm mesh coil, but they are built around different chassis and IVG does not list them as cross-compatible. Buying a SMART MAX device commits you to the IVG SMART MAX Blue Raspberry Ice Refill Pod for future top-ups, and buying a PRO device commits you to the PRO refill. Treat the IVG SMART MAX Range and the IVG PRO Range as separate ecosystems.
What nicotine strengths are available across the shelf?
Twenty milligrams of nicotine salt is the only option on the Reload pods, the Reload Mini kit, the 2400 4-in-1 kit and the PRO 2 kit. Ten and twenty milligrams are available on both SMART MAX products. The PRO refill pod and the PRO kit are offered in 0mg, 10mg and 20mg. The 100ml shortfill is nicotine-free as supplied. The 20mg Vape Kits & Refill Pods and 10mg Vape Kits & Refill Pods shelves list the catalogue by strength. Nicotine is an addictive substance.
Is there a nicotine-free Blue Raspberry Ice option?
Three products qualify. The IVG PRO 10K Blue Raspberry Ice Prefilled Pod and the IVG PRO 10K Blue Raspberry Ice Vape Kit both list a 0mg variant, and the 100ml shortfill is supplied nicotine-free with headroom for shots if you want to add them. All three are listed on the Nicotine-Free Vape shelf. Worth noting that at 0mg the coolant has nothing competing with it and the flavour reads noticeably colder.
How many puffs do these pods give?
IVG rates the 2ml Reload pod at up to 600 puffs and the 12ml PRO and SMART MAX pods at up to 10,000 puffs. Both figures are laboratory estimates produced under controlled draw conditions and they are not a promise about your use. Puff length, draw strength, ambient temperature and how often the device is fired all move the real number, usually downwards. Treat them as a way of ranking capacity between products rather than as a count.
Why does the flavour fade before the pod is empty?
Sweetener residue. Blue raspberry is a heavily sweetened recipe, and sucralose and similar sweeteners caramelise onto a mesh coil rather than vaporising away. The residue builds up and progressively muffles the fruit. The coolant is unaffected by it, so a tired pod tastes cold but flat: the ice arrives at full strength and the raspberry does not. It is the single most common complaint about iced sweet fruits and it is a coil problem rather than a liquid problem.
Does an iced liquid gunk a coil faster than a plain one?
The coolant itself does not. Cooling agents vaporise without leaving much behind. What shortens coil life on this shelf is the sweetener in the blue raspberry base, which would do the same with or without the ice. The practical difference is that an iced recipe disguises the decline for longer, because the cold keeps performing while the fruit degrades, so people often run an iced pod well past the point where they would have swapped an unsweetened one.
What is the cheapest way to stay on this flavour?
Per millilitre, the IVG Shortfill 70/30 Blue Raspberry Ice E-Liquid at around 2p per millilitre, though it needs a sub-ohm tank you already own and arrives nicotine-free. Among the pods, the IVG 2400 Blue Raspberry Ice X2 Reload Pods work out at roughly 12p per millilitre against about 66p for the 12ml refills, but every Reload pod includes a fresh coil, which is most of what you are paying the difference for.
What is the difference between the PRO 10K and the PRO 2 10K?
The pod is identical, so the flavour and the capacity are identical. The PRO 2 body measures 75mm by 49.5mm by 28mm, charges over Type-C and adds a touch battery display that shows charge state at a glance. That is what the £3 gap between the IVG PRO 10K Blue Raspberry Ice Vape Kit and the IVG PRO 2 10K Blue Raspberry Ice Vape Kit buys. The PRO kit is also listed in 0mg and 10mg, while the PRO 2 kit is listed at 20mg only, so strength may decide it before the display does.
Does the shortfill taste the same as the pods?
Same recipe, different result. At 70/30 VG/PG in a direct-to-lung tank the texture is thicker and the confectionery peak is rounded off slightly, while the coolant spreads across a much larger volume of vapour and reads as a broad chill rather than a pointed one. A pod tasting will tell you whether you like the flavour. It will not tell you how the bottle behaves in your own tank.
Why does the 4-in-1 hold four pods of the same flavour?
Because bought as a kit it ships with four Blue Raspberry Ice pods, which turns the rotation into extra capacity rather than flavour switching: 8ml on board across four separate coils. The slots are not locked to one flavour, though. Any Reload pod from the IVG 2400 & Reload Mini Range fits any of the four, so you can mix once the originals are spent. Four coils sharing 8ml also means the last pod tastes much like the first, which matters on a sweetened recipe.
