IVG PRO 2

IVG PRO 2 10K: What Actually Changed

When a manufacturer adds a "2" to a product name, the honest question is whether anything meaningful changed or whether it is a new paint job with a higher price. With the PRO 2 the answer is specific and easy to state: the consumable stayed exactly the same and the hardware was rebuilt.

That is a deliberate and, frankly, sensible decision. The original PRO platform accumulated 51 prefilled pod flavours, which is one of the deepest single-platform libraries available in UK vaping. Breaking pod compatibility would have thrown that away and left early adopters of the new device with a fraction of the flavour choice. Instead, IVG kept the pod interface identical and put the development effort into the body.

The short version

• The pod is unchanged. Every IVG PRO 10K prefilled pod at £7.95 fits a PRO 2 exactly as it fits an original PRO.
• The device is heavier, better finished and available in eight colours rather than six.
• The bare device is £6.99 against £4.99 for the original.
• Complete PRO 2 kits are £13.95 against £10.95 for the original PRO kit.
• Kits are stocked in eight flavours; the other forty-three flavours are bought as pods.

So the PRO 2 is a hardware upgrade with no change to what you reorder. If you already own PRO pods, a PRO 2 slots into your existing routine on day one.

The PRO 2 Device: Build, Finish and Colours

The PRO 2 body is where all the difference sits. The original PRO is a light, slim, unobtrusive slab designed to disappear in a pocket. The PRO 2 takes the same basic footprint and gives it more presence: a denser feel, a more considered surface treatment and colours that read as finishes rather than plastic tints.

The colour range

Eight bare devices are stocked at £6.99 each: Black, Gunmetal, Blue, Green, Purple, Red, Rose Gold and Hot Pink. Gunmetal and Rose Gold in particular are the ones that make the PRO 2 feel like a different class of object to the original, because they are metallic treatments rather than solid colours. Black remains the default for anyone who wants the device to be invisible, and Hot Pink and Green are the two that customers buy specifically because they are easy to spot in a bag.

Why buy a bare device

The £6.99 device-only listing is the most useful line item in this range for anyone already in the ecosystem. If you own PRO pods and want the newer hardware, this is the entire cost of the upgrade. If you own a PRO 2 already and want a second one so you can run two flavours at once, again, £6.99. And because devices are sold bare, a household can buy one device per person in a different colour each and share a single pod order, which removes any argument about whose is whose.

Controls

There are no controls to speak of, and that is the point. The PRO 2 is draw-activated: you inhale and it fires. There is no power button to click five times, no wattage to set and no menu to navigate. Charging is over USB-C on the body. An indicator on the device reports charge state and confirms the pod has seated. Exact indicator behaviour and battery capacity are printed on the retail packaging and listed on the individual product pages, and those listings are the authority rather than any general description.

Pod Compatibility: The Library You Inherit

This section matters more than the hardware description, because the pods are what you will actually spend money on over time.

A PRO 2 accepts the full IVG PRO 10K prefilled pod range. That is 51 distinct flavours, every one of them £7.95, every one of them a sealed unit with the coil and mouthpiece built in. You are not restricted to the eight flavours that ship as complete kits. Those eight exist so that a first-time buyer can get hardware and liquid in one purchase; they are not the limit of the system.

What the full pod library covers

Laid out by character rather than alphabetically, the 51 pods break down roughly like this.

• Straight menthol and mint: Classic Menthol, Fresh Mint, Spearmint, Fresh Menthol Mojito, Blueberry Mint.
• Ice fruits: Banana Ice, Cherry Ice, Grape Ice, Peach Ice, Pineapple Ice, Strawberry Ice, Blue Raspberry Ice, Blackberry Raspberry Ice, Strawberry Raspberry Ice, Mango Lychee Ice, Pineapple Coconut Ice, Cherry Burst Ice, Red Freeze, Cola Frost.
• Berries: Mixed Berry, Blueberry Raspberry, Blueberry Cherry Raspberry, Raspberry Blast, Strawberry Raspberry Cherry, Strawberry Watermelon, Strawberry Kiwi, Fizzy Strawberry.
• Sours: Blue Sour Raspberry, Red Sour Raspberry, Blue Sour Strawberry, Sour Rainbow GB, Sour Cherry Watermelon.
• Citrus and lemonade: Lemon Lime, Lemon Fizz, Fizzy Orange, Pink Lemonade, Purple Lemonade, Blackcurrant Lemonade.
• Tropical and green: Double Mango, Pineapple Tropic, Kiwi Passionfruit Guava, Green Fruits, Double Apple.
• Cola and fizzy sweets: Fizzy Cherry, Fizzy Cherry Cola.
• Bubblegum and gummy: Hub Blast, Blue Razz Hub, Strawberry Hub, Blue Razz Retro, Rainbow Burst.
• Tobacco: Tobacco, the only non-sweet, non-cooled pod in the line.

Two pieces of IVG shorthand are worth knowing before you order. "Hub" marks the bubblegum-based family, so Blue Razz Hub is blue raspberry over a gum base rather than a straight blue raspberry. "GB" marks gummy-sweet character, as in Sour Rainbow GB. Neither abbreviation is explained on the packaging, and mistaking one for a plain fruit is the most common source of a disappointed first order.

The complete set is on the IVG PRO range page, and pods on their own are listed under IVG refill pods alongside the other platforms we stock.

The Eight PRO 2 Kit Flavours

Complete PRO 2 kits at £13.95 are stocked in eight flavours, each containing the device and one prefilled pod. IVG has chosen these eight to cover the broadest possible spread rather than to showcase anything unusual, which makes them a reasonable starting point if you genuinely do not know what you like.

IVG PRO 2 10K kit flavours, £13.95 each

Kit flavour	Profile	Cooling	Pick it if
Classic Menthol	Plain, unsweetened menthol	High	You want cold with nothing behind it
Spearmint	Sweet confectionery mint	Medium	You find straight menthol too sharp
Blue Raspberry Ice	Blue raspberry sweet with ice	Medium to high	You want the best-known vape flavour profile in Britain
Blue Sour Raspberry	Blue raspberry with a sour edge, no ice	Low	You want sharpness rather than cold
Fizzy Cherry	Carbonated cherry sweet	Low	You lean towards sweet-shop flavours
Lemon Lime	Clean two-citrus pairing	Low	You want something bright and not sugary
Pineapple Ice	Pineapple with a cooling finish	Medium	You want tropical without heaviness
Strawberry Watermelon	Soft red fruit pairing	Low	You want an all-day flavour that does not tire

Which of the eight to start with

If menthol is your usual preference, Classic Menthol is the closest reference point and Spearmint is the softer alternative. If you are arriving from disposables, Blue Raspberry Ice is the profile most UK disposables have trained people on and will feel immediately familiar. If you want something that will not fatigue your palate over a full day, Strawberry Watermelon and Lemon Lime are the two that customers most often settle on as a daily driver rather than a novelty.

After that first kit, you are buying pods, and the whole 51-flavour library is open to you at £7.95 each.

Building a Flavour Rotation

Once you are past the first kit, the question stops being "which flavour" and becomes "which flavours". Fifty-one options is enough to be genuinely paralysing, and most people handle it badly by ordering six pods that all turn out to be variations on the same idea. A rotation built on contrast works far better than one built on preference alone.

Palate fatigue is the real problem

Any single flavour becomes less noticeable the longer you use it. This is ordinary sensory adaptation rather than a fault with the pod, and it is why people convince themselves a favourite has been reformulated when nothing has changed. The fix is simply to alternate. Two pods running in parallel on two £6.99 devices, switched whenever you feel like it, keeps both tasting the way they did on day one.

A sensible three-pod rotation

The structure that works for most people is one cold pod, one sweet pod and one neutral pod. For example: Classic Menthol or Fresh Mint as the cold one, Hub Blast or Rainbow Burst as the sweet one, and Strawberry Watermelon or Lemon Lime as the neutral daily driver. The cold pod resets your palate, the sweet pod is for when you want something pronounced, and the neutral pod carries the bulk of the day without tiring you.

Ordering to explore

If you want to map the range properly, order one pod from families you have not tried rather than three from a family you already know. A sour, a lemonade, a tropical and a bubblegum in a single order tells you far more about your own preferences than four berries would, and at £7.95 each an exploratory order of three clears the free delivery threshold anyway. The prefilled pods listing can be filtered to make that easier.

Seasonal patterns

It is worth noting, because customers ask, that ice and menthol pods sell noticeably harder in summer and the sweeter, warmer profiles such as Double Apple, Cola Frost and the Hub family pick up through autumn and winter. If a flavour you like is regularly out of stock, that seasonality is often the reason rather than a line being discontinued.

How a 10K Pod Works Within UK Limits

The PRO 2 is marketed on a 10,000-puff pod, and the obvious question from anyone who knows the regulations is how that squares with a 2ml cap.

The rules

Under the UK's Tobacco and Related Products Regulations, a nicotine-containing e-liquid tank or pod may hold no more than 2ml, and nicotine strength may not exceed 20mg/ml. Both limits apply to every product sold legally in Britain, including everything listed on this site.

The mechanism

The vaping chamber the coil draws from holds 2ml and no more. Inside the same sealed pod housing sits a separate reserve of e-liquid that is not directly accessible and is not itself a vaping chamber. As the 2ml chamber is used, the reserve replenishes it, and that cycle repeats until the reserve is empty. The coil is never presented with more than 2ml, which is what the regulation controls. This is the standard architecture for compliant high-puff-count products in the UK and it is used across the IVG NEXiO and IVG SMART MAX ranges as well, albeit implemented differently in each.

Why puff counts vary in practice

A puff rating is a design target measured against a standardised draw. Your results depend on how long and how hard you pull. A three-second draw consumes roughly three times the liquid of a one-second draw, so two people using identical pods can see results a few thousand puffs apart and both be using the product exactly as intended. Treat 10,000 as the ceiling rather than the promise.

Battery, Charging and Running the PRO 2

The PRO 2 carries an integrated rechargeable battery charged through a USB-C port on the body. Capacity figures are printed on the retail box and shown on the product listings, and we would rather point you there than quote a number that may change between production runs.

What is constant is the relationship between battery and pod. A pod rated at 10,000 puffs will outlast any battery this size by a wide margin, so multiple charges per pod is the normal pattern. It is not a defect and it is not a sign the device is underperforming; it is simply what happens when a large liquid reserve sits next to a pocketable cell.

Charging practice

• Use an ordinary USB-C cable into a modest power source: a laptop port or a basic 5W plug. High-output fast chargers made for phones and tablets are not appropriate here.
• Charge on a hard, non-flammable surface. Not on bedding, not on a sofa cushion, not buried in a bag.
• Do not leave the device charging overnight or unsupervised for long periods.
• Disconnect once the indicator shows full rather than leaving it plugged in for hours afterwards.
• Let a very cold or very hot device return to room temperature before you plug it in.

Getting more from a charge

Two habits make the biggest difference. First, top up little and often rather than running the battery flat repeatedly; partial charges are easier on lithium cells than deep cycles. Second, take shorter draws. Draw length is the dominant variable in both battery consumption and pod consumption, and shortening a habitual three-second pull to two seconds noticeably extends both.

If you would rather not think about charging at all, the £6.99 bare device makes a second body cheap enough that most regular users simply keep one charged as a backup.

The Draw: Airflow and Technique

The PRO 2 is a mouth-to-lung device. The airflow through the pod is deliberately restricted so that you draw vapour into your mouth first and then inhale it, rather than pulling it straight into your lungs in one movement. This is the same action as drawing on a straw, and it is the style almost every disposable and every small pod system uses.

If you are coming from a sub-ohm device

The PRO 2 will feel tight. That is not a blockage or a fault; it is the design. A direct-lung device moves several times the air and is built around lower-strength liquid and much higher power. Trying to use a mouth-to-lung pod the same way produces a thin, unsatisfying draw and burns through the pod fast. Slow down, shorten the pull and let the restriction do its job.

If you are coming from disposables

It will feel almost identical, because disposables are mouth-to-lung too. The one difference worth noting is that a fresh pod with a properly saturated mesh coil tends to deliver more flavour than a disposable that has been sitting in a warehouse, so your first few draws may read as stronger than you expect.

Technique that makes pods last

Draw length is the single biggest variable in how long a pod lasts, ahead of nicotine strength, flavour, temperature and everything else. A slow two-second pull will consistently give you more total puffs and better flavour than a hard three-second one, because the coil stays properly wetted and the wick keeps up. If your pods are running down faster than you expected, this is almost always where the difference is.

Chain vaping

Taking many draws back to back without a pause gives the wick no time to re-saturate, which produces a progressively drier, harsher taste and can leave a faint scorched note behind for the rest of the pod. Leaving twenty or thirty seconds between draws is enough to avoid it entirely.

Nicotine Strength in the PRO 2 System

Every prefilled pod that fits the PRO 2 is 20mg/ml nicotine salt. This is the UK maximum and the standard for closed mouth-to-lung pod systems.

Nicotine salt is not a different substance from freebase nicotine in any dramatic sense; it is nicotine combined with an acid, which changes how it behaves at the throat. At 20mg/ml a freebase liquid in a small high-resistance device would be unpleasantly harsh for most people. Salt formulation is what makes 20mg workable in a device this size, which is precisely why every closed pod platform on the market uses it.

If you want a different strength

The PRO 2 pod range is single-strength by design, because each pod is a sealed fixed specification. If choosing your own strength matters to you, the answer is not this platform but an open refillable one. IVG PRO Salts at £3.99 a bottle carry many of the same flavour identities in a bottled format, so you can keep the taste you like while controlling the strength separately.

Fitting and Changing a Pod

The pod connection is magnetic and vertical. Once you have done this once it takes seconds, but the first attempt catches people out because there is no visible latch.

• Removing. Grip the pod by the wide part of its base, not the narrow mouthpiece, and pull straight up. Do not twist or rock; the magnets hold vertically and twisting fights the geometry.
• Cleaning. With the bay empty, wipe the contacts inside the device and the base of the new pod with a dry tissue or cotton bud. Condensation gathers here and causes most of the "it stopped working" reports we see.
• Unwrapping. Remove the base plug and the mouthpiece film from the new pod. Keep the base plug somewhere safe if you intend to store part-used pods.
• Fitting. Align the pod over the bay and press down. The magnets complete the last part of the movement. There should be no need to force it.
• Priming. Stand the device upright for two to three minutes so the wick saturates fully. Skipping this is the number one cause of a burnt-tasting first puff.
• First draws. Take two or three gentle, short pulls before settling into your normal rhythm.

Running two flavours

Because the pods are sealed, you can swap between two part-used pods freely. Refit the base plug, stand the spare upright in a drawer out of sunlight, and it will keep for weeks. Storing a pod on its side or in a warm car is what causes seepage and flavour loss.

PRO 2 or Original PRO? The Upgrade Question

This is the decision most people land on this page to make, so here it is without hedging.

IVG PRO 2 compared with the original IVG PRO

	IVG PRO 2 10K	IVG PRO 10K
Bare device price	£6.99	£4.99
Complete kit price	£13.95	£10.95
Device + 2 pods listing	£19.99	£17.99
Device colours stocked	8	6
Kit flavours stocked	8	51
Compatible prefilled pods	All 51, £7.95	All 51, £7.95
Pod format	Sealed prefilled, 2ml chamber, 20mg salt	Identical
Charging	USB-C	USB-C
Build	Heavier, metallic finishes	Lighter, plainer

Buy the PRO 2 if

• You want the better-feeling device and the metallic colour options, and £2 more on hardware is not a consideration.
• You are buying your first IVG pod device and want the newer body from the start.
• You already own PRO pods and want an upgrade that costs £6.99 and changes nothing about your reordering.

Stay with the original PRO if

• You want the lowest possible hardware cost, particularly if you buy spare devices regularly.
• You want a complete kit in a specific flavour that is not one of the eight PRO 2 kit flavours. The original PRO kits come in all 51.
• You prefer a lighter device in the pocket. The original is genuinely the more discreet of the two.

Either way, the pods are the same, so this is a low-stakes decision. Both ranges are on the IVG PRO 10K page and the PRO 2 listings above.

PRO 2 Against the Other IVG Platforms

The PRO 2 is one of several IVG pod systems stocked here, and they are structurally different rather than cosmetically different.

IVG pod platforms compared

Range	How liquid is supplied	Kit	Consumable	Flavours
IVG PRO 2 10K	Sealed prefilled pod	£13.95	£7.95 pod	51 pods, 8 kits
IVG PRO 10K	Sealed prefilled pod	£10.95	£7.95 pod	51
IVG PRO 5K	Sealed prefilled pod, half the rating	£7.49	£5.49 pod	15
IVG NEXiO	2ml pod fed by an auto-refill container	£10.95	£7.95 refill	27 to 29
IVG SMART MAX	2ml pod plus a 10ml refill container	£10.95	£7.95 refill	40

Against PRO 5K

The PRO 5K kits at £7.49 are the cheapest entry into the IVG pod world, but the pods are rated at half the puffs for £5.49, which is poor value per puff next to a £7.95 10K pod. The 5K range earns its place on price sensitivity and on its own fifteen flavours, not on economics. Its prefilled pods are not interchangeable with the 10K ones.

Against NEXiO and SMART MAX

PRO 2 is a prefilled platform: the pod comes full and the whole thing is discarded at the end. NEXiO and SMART MAX are refill platforms: a small 2ml pod stays fitted and a separate sealed container refills it. Refilling means less plastic discarded per millilitre of liquid used. Prefilled means fewer steps and nothing to align. If waste is your deciding factor, look at the NEXiO kits and SMART MAX kits before committing to the PRO 2.

Moving to the PRO 2 From Disposables

Most PRO 2 buyers are coming off single-use devices, and the shift involves three changes in habit rather than any change in how the thing feels to use.

You now own a battery

A disposable discards a working lithium cell with every unit. The PRO 2 keeps its cell and you charge it over USB-C. That means one more thing to plug in, and considerably fewer batteries leaving your house. The whole disposable vape alternatives section exists for people making exactly this move.

Flavour becomes a £7.95 decision, not a whole-device decision

Changing flavour on a disposable means buying another disposable. On a PRO 2 it means a pod and five seconds. With a second £6.99 device you can keep two flavours live at once, which is a thing disposables simply cannot do.

Performance holds up across the pod

Disposables commonly weaken towards the end as their fixed cell sags. Because a PRO 2 runs from a battery you keep charged, the final stretch of a pod performs much closer to the opening stretch.

What you give up

Simplicity. A disposable needs no cable, no pod changes and no thought at all. If you vape occasionally, travel light, or genuinely do not want to manage hardware, that convenience is worth something real. The big puff vapes category shows the full spread if you want to weigh it up before committing.

What the PRO 2 Costs to Run

Running cost is the practical argument for any pod system, so here are the numbers rather than the adjectives. Puff ratings are design targets, but applying the same assumption across every row keeps the comparison honest.

Indicative cost per 10,000 puffs

Route	First order	Every reorder after that	Hardware kept
PRO 2 kit, then pods	£13.95	£7.95	Yes
PRO 2 bare device plus one pod	£14.94	£7.95	Yes
PRO 2 Device + 2 Pods	£19.99	£7.95	Yes
PRO 5K kit, then pods	£7.49	£10.98 for two pods	Yes

The column that matters is the third. Once the device is paid for, a PRO 2 user is spending £7.95 per 10,000 puffs and nothing more. The hardware cost is a one-off that does not recur, so the break-even against repeatedly buying complete kits arrives at your second pod.

The cheapest sensible configuration

If you already have pods: buy the £6.99 bare device. If you have nothing: buy the £13.95 kit and add a second pod so your order reaches the £20 free delivery threshold. If you are buying for two people: two bare devices at £6.99 and a shared pod order beats two kits in almost every case.

Who the PRO 2 Is For

A good fit if

• You want a device that feels solid rather than disposable, and you care how it looks.
• You want the widest flavour library available on any single IVG platform.
• You are happy to charge over USB-C and swap a pod occasionally.
• You want a mouth-to-lung draw, similar to a disposable rather than a large sub-ohm device.
• You are already in the PRO ecosystem and want better hardware without changing what you buy.

Probably not for you if

• You want to choose your own nicotine strength, in which case an open refillable system with bottled salts fits better.
• You want to mix your own liquids or use shortfills.
• You want high-wattage cloud production; this is not that kind of device.
• You want the lightest, most pocketable option, where the original PRO wins.

Every product in this range is for adults aged 18 and over. We do not sell nicotine products to anyone under 18 under any circumstances.

Troubleshooting and Care

Most PRO 2 problems come down to four causes and all four are quick to resolve.

Nothing happens at all

Put it on charge for twenty minutes with a cable and port you know work, then try again. If there is still no response, swap the cable before assuming the device has failed. Cables fail far more often than batteries do, and a partially damaged USB-C cable will often charge a phone while failing to deliver enough for a small device.

The light responds but there is no vapour

This is a contact issue nine times out of ten. Take the pod off, dry the contacts in the bay and on the pod base, refit and try again. Do this routinely at every pod change and you will rarely see the problem at all.

Output feels weak

Check the charge first. If the battery is healthy, consider where the pod is in its life, because output tapers as the liquid runs down. Also make sure you are not blocking the air intake with a finger, which is easy on a flat-bodied device.

It tastes burnt

On a fresh pod this means you drew before the wick was saturated. Rest the pod upright for a few minutes and take gentle draws. On a pod that has been running fine, it means the liquid is finished. A dry coil does not recover and continuing to draw on it will only make the taste worse.

Gurgling or liquid at the mouthpiece

Almost always caused by drawing too sharply. Mouth-to-lung hardware wants a slow steady pull. Wipe the mouthpiece, tap the pod gently mouthpiece-down onto a tissue and ease off the force.

Routine care

• Dry the pod bay every time you change a pod.
• Keep the device away from water; it is not sealed against it.
• Never try to open, refill or modify a sealed prefilled pod.
• Store devices, pods and any e-liquid out of reach of children and animals.
• Do not leave the device on a car dashboard, a windowsill in direct sun or next to a radiator.

Travelling With a PRO 2

Pod systems travel better than disposables in most respects, but there are a few rules and a few practical habits worth knowing.

Air travel

Devices containing lithium batteries must go in hand luggage, never in checked hold baggage. That is an airline safety rule rather than a vaping rule and it applies to every battery-powered device. Do not attempt to charge the device on board, and expect to be asked to keep it switched off and stowed. Liquids, including pods, fall under the usual cabin liquid restrictions, so keep them in your clear bag. Rules on carrying and using vapes vary considerably between countries and some ban them outright, so check the destination's regulations before you fly rather than after you land.

Pressure and pods

Cabin pressure changes push liquid around inside a pod and can cause seepage at the mouthpiece. Two things help: carry pods upright rather than loose in a bag, and refit the base plug on any part-used pod you are transporting. If a pod does weep, wipe it and let it stand upright for a few minutes before using it.

Heat

The single worst thing you can do to a pod is leave it in a hot car or on a sunlit windowsill. Heat thins the liquid, accelerates flooding and degrades flavour, and it is also the condition most likely to stress a lithium cell. A glovebox in summer is not a storage solution.

Packing for a trip

Take a charged spare device at £6.99 rather than a spare cable, because a dead device abroad is a far bigger problem than a missing cable. Take one more pod than you think you need. And if you are going somewhere you cannot easily buy IVG pods, remember the pods are the constraint, not the hardware.

Ordering the PRO 2 From IVG Refills

IVG Refills is an independent UK retailer that specialises in IVG hardware and e-liquid. We are not IVG's own store. What that specialism buys you is depth: we stock the whole PRO 2 colour range and the whole PRO 10K pod library rather than the handful of lines a general vape shop carries.

Delivery

UK delivery is free on orders over £20. Since a kit plus a pod already clears that, most first orders qualify without trying. Parcels go on a tracked 24 or 48 hour service depending on what you select at checkout, and tracking is emailed when the parcel is collected. Orders placed before the daily cut-off are picked the same working day, and anything later goes the next working day.

Age verification

You must be 18 or over. Every order is age-verified before it is released, and we will not dispatch an order that fails verification. If an electronic check cannot confirm your age from the details you supply, we will ask for additional proof before the parcel leaves. Carriers may also request identification at the door. These checks are a legal requirement and are applied to every customer without exception.

Availability

Across eight device colours and fifty-one pod flavours, some lines will inevitably be out at any given moment. If the exact pod you want is unavailable, the closest profile in the same family is usually a better outcome than waiting, because restock timing varies by line. Browse the full store for everything we carry.

Recycling, Batteries and WEEE

A PRO 2 device contains a lithium cell and electronic components, which places it under the Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment regulations. It must not go into a household bin or a kerbside recycling bin. Lithium cells that get crushed in waste vehicles and sorting facilities start fires, and vape hardware is now a recognised and growing cause of those fires across the UK.

Devices

Take an unwanted or dead device to a household waste recycling centre with a small electricals or battery collection point, or to a retailer operating WEEE takeback. Your council's website will list the nearest option. Do not open the device to extract the cell.

Pods

Used prefilled pods combine plastic, a small amount of metal and residual e-liquid, which is why they do not belong in kerbside recycling. Collect them and use a vape recycling point if your area has one. Never incinerate a pod or put one in a fire.

Packaging

Cartons and leaflets are card and go in ordinary kerbside recycling. The clear blister and plastic film generally do not, depending on your local scheme.

Cutting down what you discard

Keeping the device instead of replacing it is the main lever, and at £6.99 a PRO 2 body should last a very long time relative to the pods that pass through it. Beyond that, refill-based platforms discard less plastic per millilitre than prefilled ones. That is worth weighing if it matters to you.

Starting With the PRO 2

The simplest route in is a £13.95 kit in whichever of the eight flavours sounds closest to what you already like, plus one pod from a different family at £7.95 so you have a comparison in hand and your order clears free delivery. From there you are on pods only, choosing from all 51.

If you already own PRO pods, skip the kit entirely and buy the £6.99 bare device in the colour you want. That is the whole upgrade. If you would rather start with more liquid in hand, the Device + 2 Pods listing at £19.99 covers it in one line.

The full range is above; head to the store to compare the PRO 2 against the other IVG platforms. All products sold to adults 18 and over only.

Frequently asked questions

Do original IVG PRO pods fit the PRO 2?

Yes. The PRO 2 is a device revision rather than a new pod platform, so it accepts the full IVG PRO 10K prefilled pod range at £7.95 a pod. If you already own PRO pods you can move to a PRO 2 body without changing anything about what you reorder, and all 51 flavours remain available to you.

What is the difference between the IVG PRO and the PRO 2?

The pods are identical; the hardware is not. The PRO 2 has a heavier, better-finished body and eight colours against the original's six, at £6.99 per bare device versus £4.99. Complete kits are £13.95 against £10.95, but PRO 2 kits come in eight flavours while original PRO kits come in all 51.

How many PRO 2 kit flavours do you stock?

Eight: Classic Menthol, Spearmint, Blue Raspberry Ice, Blue Sour Raspberry, Fizzy Cherry, Lemon Lime, Pineapple Ice and Strawberry Watermelon, all at £13.95 with the device included. That is not a limit on the system, though, because the device takes all 51 prefilled pod flavours once you own it.

What colours is the IVG PRO 2 device available in?

Eight finishes at £6.99 each: Black, Gunmetal, Blue, Green, Purple, Red, Rose Gold and Hot Pink. Gunmetal and Rose Gold are metallic treatments rather than flat colours. Buying bare devices is also how most households end up with one each in a different colour sharing a single pod order.

Is a 10,000 puff pod legal in the UK?

Yes, provided the vaping chamber holds no more than 2ml and the nicotine does not exceed 20mg/ml, which is the case here. The high rating comes from a sealed internal reserve that repeatedly refills the 2ml chamber rather than from a larger tank, so the coil is never fed from more than 2ml at a time.

What nicotine strength do PRO 2 pods come in?

20mg/ml nicotine salt, which is the UK maximum and the only strength offered on this platform. Sealed prefilled pods are single-specification by design. If choosing your own strength matters, use an open refillable kit with bottled IVG PRO Salts at £3.99 instead of a closed pod system.

How often do I need to charge the PRO 2?

Several times across one pod. A 10,000-puff pod always outlasts a pocket-sized battery, so this is normal rather than a fault. Charge over USB-C from a laptop port or a basic plug, on a hard surface, and unplug once it shows full. Topping up little and often is better for the cell than running it flat.

Why does my pod taste burnt straight out of the packet?

The wick had not saturated before your first draw. Fit the pod, stand the device upright for two to three minutes, then take two or three gentle short puffs before vaping normally. If a burnt note appears on a pod that has been fine for days, the liquid has run out and the pod needs replacing.

Can I refill a PRO 2 pod myself?

No. These are sealed single-use cartridges with the coil built in and no fill port. Opening one damages the seal and ruins the pod. If you want a refillable approach, the IVG NEXiO and IVG SMART MAX ranges use a 2ml pod topped up from a separate sealed refill container instead.

What does Hub or GB mean in the flavour names?

They are IVG's shorthand. Hub marks the bubblegum-based family, so Blue Razz Hub is blue raspberry layered over a gum base rather than a straight blue raspberry. GB marks gummy-sweet character, as in Sour Rainbow GB. Neither is explained on the packaging, so it catches out first-time buyers regularly.

Do you deliver free and how quickly?

UK delivery is free over £20, which a kit plus one pod already clears. Parcels go on a tracked 24 or 48 hour service depending on the option chosen at checkout, with tracking emailed on collection. Orders placed before the daily cut-off are picked the same working day.

How should I dispose of a dead PRO 2 device?

It contains a lithium cell and falls under WEEE rules, so it must go to a household waste recycling centre with a small electricals or battery point, or a retailer offering takeback. Never put it in a household or kerbside bin, never open it to remove the cell, and never burn it.
