What is a Vape Kit?
A vape kit is an all-in-one hardware package containing everything you need to start vaping. As a premier Ireland vape shop, every eSmokeStore Ireland vape kit we stock is fully compliant with EU safety standards. At its core, a vape kit consists of a rechargeable electronic battery (or mod), a pod or tank to hold your e-liquid, and a heating element (the coil) that vaporises the liquid for you to inhale.
What’s Included in a Standard Vape Kit?
- The Battery / Mod: The main power source. Small pod kits have built-in batteries, while advanced mods use removable 18650 or 21700 cells.
- The Tank / Pod: The reservoir that holds your juice. Prefilled pods come ready-sealed, while open pods can be filled with any e-liquid.
- The Vape Coil: The heating element. Some kits use replaceable coils, while others feature integrated coils built directly into disposable pods.
- The Charging Cable: Usually a modern, fast-charging USB-C cable included right in the box.
What Are the Different Types of Vape Kits?
Vape hardware comes in several distinct formats designed to match different experience levels, budgets, and lifestyles. Whether you are looking for a simple setup with zero maintenance or a fully adjustable device that gives you complete control, here is a breakdown of the main options available:
Prefilled Pod Kits
- Simple setup for new vapers
- Ideal for MTL vaping
- Compatible with nic salts or 50/50 e-liquids
Refillable Pod Kits
- Refill with compatible e-liquid
- Wider choice of flavours
- Lower long-term running cost
Prefilled Pod Kits (Closed Systems)
The absolute simplest option for those switching from single-use disposables. These kits use prefilled, click-and-go pods that require zero maintenance, manual refills, or messy coil changes. Just swap the pod when empty and keep the battery charged.
Refillable Pod Kits (Open Systems)
Offering the absolute best long-term value in the Ireland vape market. These open pod systems allow you to fill the pod with your favourite bottled e-liquids. You only need to replace the internal coil or the pod cartridge itself when the flavour begins to drop.
Vape Pens
Slim, lightweight, and cylindrical devices suited for everyday, on-the-go use. Featuring straightforward single-button controls and a tight, cigarette-style draw, vape pens are highly practical for beginners who want a compact and familiar mouth-to-lung setup.
Sub-Ohm Vape Kits (Advanced Mods)
High-powered, highly customizable setups built specifically for experienced vapers. Designed for a direct-to-lung (DTL) inhale, these kits feature adjustable wattage and airflow controls. They are designed to be paired with lower-resistance coils to create thick, massive vapour clouds.
Vape Pens
- Compact pen-style design
- Easy to carry in a pocket or bag
- Tight, cigarette-style draw
Sub-Ohm Vape Kits
- Designed for DTL vaping
- Produces more vapour than standard kits
- Ideal for experienced users
Choosing a Vape Kit Based on Your Vaping Style
Finding the right device depends entirely on your preferred inhale style. Whether you want a tight, cigarette-like draw or massive, airy clouds, your choice dictates the type of hardware, coil resistance, and e-liquid you need to use. Use our quick comparison guide below to easily match your style to the perfect vape kits available at eSmokeStore:
| Vaping Style | Best For | Inhale Draw Type | Typical Resistance | Recommended E-Liquid |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| MTL (Mouth to Lung) | Beginners & Ex-Smokers | Tight, cigarette-style draw | 0.8Ω – 1.8Ω (High) | Nic Salts or 50/50 E-Liquids |
| RDTL (Restricted DTL) | Balanced Flavour & Vapour | Looser draw with mild airflow | 0.5Ω – 0.8Ω (Medium) | 50/50 Blends or low-strength Salts |
| DTL (Direct to Lung) | Cloud Chasers & Hobbyists | Airy, deep direct-lung inhale | Below 0.5Ω (Low) | High-VG E-Liquids & Shortfills |
What to Look For When Buying a Vape Kit?
With so many options on the market, finding the right setup comes down to your experience level, routine, and lifestyle. Before making your choice, consider these essential factors to ensure your new hardware delivers the exact experience you are looking for:
Battery Capacity (mAh)
A higher milliamp-hour (mAh) rating means your device will last longer between charges. Compact pod systems are incredibly lightweight to carry, while larger advanced mods give you maximum power to last all day.
Ease of Use vs. Technical Control
If you want low maintenance, opt for an inhale-activated pod system with automatic settings. If you prefer to fine-tune your throat hit, cloud density, and heat settings, choose a device that features an adjustable screen, variable wattage, and custom airflow sliders.
E-Liquid Compatibility
Always match your device to your liquid type. Standard starter kits, pens, and low-powered pod systems work perfectly with nicotine salts and 50/50 juices. Sub-ohm kits require thicker, high-VG shortfills to function without leaking.

Frequently Asked Questions
Most beginners starting their journey choose a simple starter kit, open pod kit, vape pen, or a prefilled pod kit. These devices are compact, exceptionally easy to use, and primarily designed for MTL (mouth-to-lung) vaping, which delivers a tight draw similar to a traditional cigarette.
Yes, reusable vape kits are completely legal for adults aged 18 and older in Ireland. As a fully TPD-compliant Ireland vape shop, all of our hardware meets strict European and national safety regulations, offering a legal, high-quality alternative across our refillable systems, pod kits, and sub-ohm mods.
For a seamless switch from disposables, a prefilled pod kit is your best choice. These rechargeable options use pre-sealed flavor pods to maintain a simple, maintenance-free experience with less environmental waste. If you're looking for better long-term savings and unlimited flavor choices, a refillable pod kit from eSmokeStore is the ideal option.
Prefilled vape kits utilize sealed, ready-to-use pods that require no manual refilling or coil swaps—you simply change the cartridge when empty. In contrast, refillable vape kits feature open tanks or pods that you manually fill with your choice of bottled e-liquids, offering far greater flavor customization, variable nicotine strengths, and significantly lower everyday running costs.
his depends entirely on your specific hardware setup. Low-powered starter kits, vape pens, and classic MTL pod systems perform best with nicotine salts or 50/50 PG/VG e-liquids. On the other hand, higher-powered sub-ohm devices require thick, high-VG shortfills paired with low nicotine strengths.
With proper care and maintenance, the primary battery or mod of your kit can last for many months or even years. However, consumable parts like pods, coils, and your e-liquid will need to be replaced regularly. The physical lifespan of your internal battery and coils depends heavily on your daily usage habits and the style of e-liquid you choose.
As a general rule, you should swap your coil or pod cartridge whenever you notice your e-liquid flavor fading, vapor production dropping, or a slightly burnt taste. Depending on how frequently you vape and the sweetness of your juice, a typical coil or integrated pod will last anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks.
We generally recommend sub-ohm hardware strictly for experienced users. These high-powered setups feature advanced airflow configurations and low-resistance coils designed to produce dense cloud production with low-nicotine, high-VG e-liquids. Beginners will find simple vape pens, closed pod systems, or starter options much easier to manage.
The top-performing hardware brands in the Ireland vape market include Vaporesso, OXVA, Innokin, Aspire, VooPoo, and GeekVape. The ideal brand depends entirely on your preferred style: OXVA and Vaporesso dominate the refillable open pod kit segment, while brands like Elf Bar and Lost Mary offer premium prefilled pod hardware options.
Hardware pricing varies based on the device type, battery size, and custom features. At eSmokeStore, entry-level prefilled pod systems start from as little as €10.00, making them a very affordable way to try a reusable device. Refillable starter kits and vape pens typically range from €15.00 to €30.00, while high-powered sub-ohm mods and advanced configurations scale upward based on performance capabilities.
In Ireland, all hardware, replacement pods, and e-liquids containing nicotine must rigorously adhere to the European Union's Tobacco Products Directive (TPD) standards. Legitimate products must be fully registered and verified under national frameworks monitored by the Health Service Executive (HSE). When you shop with eSmokeStore, you are guaranteed 100% genuine, fully tested, and legally compliant products.
