Disposable vapes are beginner-friendly devices fitted with built-in batteries and pre-filled with tasty 2ml nicotine salt flavours in 10mg/20mg strengths. Operating via inhale activation through a comfortable mouthpiece, these extremely compact vapes provide a set puff count ranging from 500-700 puffs, which is equal to approximately 45 cigarettes.

As these nifty little disposable vape bars come equipped with everything you need to start vaping, there’s no need to swap out any coils or pods/tank or power up your device. Instead, you can simply vape from the get-go and dispose of your device once it’s run out of juice! That way, you can also try new flavours without committing to a larger device and Vape Juice.

In this guide, we’ll be listing the top disposable vape devices of 2025, and telling you why you should give these ultra-convenient devices a try!

Best Disposables of 2025

From 1st June 2025, the UK Government officially banned the sale of single-use disposable vapes as part of new environmental and public health legislation. This move came in response to growing concerns about the huge amount of plastic waste, built-in lithium battery disposal issues, and the increasing number of young people taking up vaping through brightly coloured, flavoured disposables.

While disposable vapes were popular for their convenience and low cost, their design meant they could only be used once before being thrown away. With millions ending up in landfill or as litter every week, the ban aims to drastically cut down on unnecessary e-waste and protect the environment from battery contamination.

The good news for vapers is that many of the most popular disposable vape brands — including Elf Bar, Lost Mary, SKE Crystal, and Vuse — have released rechargeable, prefilled pod kits that offer the same flavours and smooth nicotine salt experience. These devices are compact, inhale-activated, and beginner-friendly, but instead of throwing away the whole device, you simply swap the pod and recharge the battery.

Pod kits also give you more value for money in the long run, as one device can last months with proper care. You’ll still find customer favourites like Blue Razz Lemonade, Peach Ice, and Watermelon available in compatible pods, often with the same puff count and flavour consistency as their disposable predecessors.

If you’re looking for the best disposable vape alternatives, rechargeable pod systems are the ideal choice. They match the convenience and flavour of single-use vapes while meeting the UK’s new rules, helping you enjoy your vape guilt-free — and without adding to the waste problem.

The world of disposable vaping is like no other - there’s an almost infinite amount of flavours to choose from! We update this guide regularly, so make sure to check back in a few months!
