Shop Vape Kits Under £20 UK
A lower price does not necessarily mean you have to compromise on the features that matter. Many modern budget vape kits offer rechargeable batteries, USB-C charging, compact designs and easy-to-use pod systems.
Whether you are looking for a vape kit under £10 or want to spend closer to the £20 mark for additional features, you can compare the options above and choose a device that suits your needs.
What Can You Get in a Vape Kit Under £20?
The features available will vary between devices, but affordable vape kits can include:
- Rechargeable built-in batteries
- USB-C charging
- Refillable or prefilled pod options
- MTL and RDL vaping styles
- Adjustable airflow on selected devices
- Different pod resistance options
- Compact and pocket-friendly designs
- Built-in or replaceable coil systems
- Different battery capacities
- Beginner-friendly draw-activated operation
For example, our current range includes compact devices such as the Vaporesso XROS 4 Mini and XROS Mini Retro, as well as higher-capacity options such as the Vaporesso XROS 6 Mini and OXVA NeXlim Go. This means you can compare features rather than choosing based on price alone.
Are Vape Kits Under £20 Good?
Yes, an affordable vape kit can still provide the features needed for everyday vaping. The main difference between a budget device and a more expensive kit is often the level of power, customisation, screen technology, battery capacity or advanced controls.
If you want a straightforward device that is easy to carry and simple to operate, a budget pod kit can be a practical choice.
When comparing vape kits under £20, look beyond the initial price. Consider the battery capacity, pod availability, charging method and replacement pod costs. A slightly more expensive device may offer better long-term value if its pods are easy to find and the battery lasts longer between charges.
Refillable Vape Kits Under £20
A refillable vape kit allows you to fill the pod with your own e-liquid rather than replacing the entire device once the e-liquid runs out.
Refillable pod kits can be a good option if you want more control over your e-liquid choice and prefer a device you can continue using by replacing or refilling its pods.
Before buying, check which pods the device uses and whether replacement pods are readily available. You can browse our range of replacement vape pods and find compatible options for popular devices.
Prefilled Vape Kits Under £20
Prefilled pod kits are designed for convenience. Instead of manually filling the pod, you use a compatible prefilled pod and replace it when it is empty.
They can be useful if you prefer a simple setup with minimal maintenance. However, you should always check which pods are compatible with the device before purchasing.
If you are unsure whether a refillable or prefilled system is right for you, our guide to [refillable vs prefilled pods] can help you compare the two options.
Vape Kits Under £10 vs Under £20
If your main priority is keeping the initial cost low, there are several vape kits under £10 available. These can provide a simple and affordable way to get started with a rechargeable pod system.
Increasing your budget to £15 to £20 can give you access to devices with additional features, larger batteries or more advanced pod systems.

How to Choose a Vape Kit Under £20
1. Check the battery capacity
Battery capacity is measured in mAh. A higher number generally means the battery can hold more charge, although actual battery life also depends on how you use the device and its power output.
If you vape regularly throughout the day, a larger battery may be more convenient.
2. Choose the right vaping style
Most pod kits are designed around either MTL or RDL vaping.
MTL (mouth-to-lung) provides a tighter draw that is closer to the sensation of smoking a cigarette.
RDL (restricted direct-to-lung) provides a more open draw with increased vapour production.
Some devices support both styles, giving you more flexibility.
3. Check the pod system
Before buying, check whether the kit uses refillable pods, prefilled pods or replaceable coil pods. You should also check the pod resistance and make sure compatible replacement pods are available.
4. Consider charging
USB-C charging is now common across modern pod kits and can make charging more convenient. If you use your device frequently, charging speed and battery capacity are worth considering.
5. Look at the total cost
The cheapest vape kit is not always the cheapest to use. Remember to consider the ongoing cost of e-liquid, replacement pods and coils.
A slightly more expensive refillable device may offer better long-term value if you regularly vape.
