Geekvape Review (2026): Kits, Mods, Coils & Pros and Cons

Geekvape hits different. While other brands chase the slim-and-pretty crowd, Geekvape went the other way and built kit that punches back. Drop it. Soak it. Boot it across a car park. The thing keeps firing. That is the whole pitch, and it is why this Geekvape review exists for UK vapers who want a refillable rig that actually lasts. We are going to rip through the lineup, call out what hits and what does not, and tell you straight which Geekvape device deserves your money. No spin. No fluff. Big-battery energy from start to finish.

So what is Geekvape, really?

Geekvape is one of the heavyweight names in vape hardware, and it earned that spot the hard way: by making kit that refuses to die. Loads of brands chase the trend of the month. Geekvape chases drop tests. The result is gear that survives years of daily abuse without flinching, and a fanbase of vapers who simply never want to think about their device again.

The flagship is the Aegis line. This is where the legend started. Aegis devices are shockproof, dust-sealed and water-resistant, carrying proper IP ratings that almost no other vape bothers with. An IP rating is the same toughness badge you see on rugged work phones and pro-grade torches, and it means the device has been independently tested against drops, dust and splashes. Aegis devices wrap the electronics in rubberised armour, seal the seams and bolt the corners. That is why brickies, hikers, festival crews and the chronically clumsy keep coming back to it.

But Geekvape is not just one trick. The catalogue runs deep. At the powerful end you get sub-ohm kits and box mods, including the Z (Zeus) series built around its respected family of sub-ohm tanks. At the simple end sits the Wenax pod range, made for mouth-to-lung vaping with nic salts. Spare coils, replacement glass, drip tips, pods, seals — all stocked, all easy to find. That is the sign of a brand that takes its hardware seriously.

Here is the bit that matters in the UK right now: every core Geekvape product is refillable and rechargeable. You fill the tank from a bottle. You charge over USB-C or swap a battery. You change the coil. Nothing in this lineup is a sealed throwaway. Which means every device in this review is UK-legal and walked straight past the disposable ban without breaking stride. Geekvape was building reusable kit long before that ban dropped.

The other thing running through the brand is control. Geekvape mods give you variable wattage, adjustable airflow, real screens and proper menus. They are built for vapers who want to dial it in, not vapers who want to take what they are given. That makes Geekvape an engineer's brand. Whether that suits you depends on how much tinkering you actually want.

The lineup: Aegis, Z and Wenax

Three families. Three jobs. Pick the wrong one and you will hate your purchase. Pick the right one and you will not shut up about it. Here is the breakdown.

Aegis: the armoured fleet

The Aegis family is the beating heart of the brand. There are full box mods like the long-running Aegis Legend, packing one or two removable high-drain cells and pushing serious wattage into a sub-ohm tank for huge, warm DTL clouds. There are smaller single-battery Aegis units for vapers who want the toughness without the bulk. And there are compact Aegis pod-mods that drop the rugged armour into a pocketable shell while keeping much of the adjustability.

What ties them together is the build. Shock-absorbing materials. Rubberised or leather-effect grips. Reinforced corners. Sealed bodies with IP ratings. Screens tucked behind protective panels. Gasketed battery doors. Covered ports. This kit is designed to live in a toolbox or a coat pocket and come out firing. If you have ever killed a vape on a hard floor or in a downpour, the Aegis is the answer, and nothing else really comes close on the track record.

Z series: the cloud cannons

The Z series grew out of Geekvape's famous Zeus tanks and it is all about sub-ohm, direct-to-lung vaping. The Zeus tanks built their following on a smart top-airflow design that hammered the leaking problem that plagued rival sub-ohm tanks of the era, and that leak-resistant rep has stuck. A Z kit pairs a Geekvape mod with one of those sub-ohm tanks and a set of low-resistance coils, throwing out the kind of huge, warm, flavour-packed vape that DTL vapers chase. Want big plumes and a loose airy hit? Z is your route.

Wenax: the pod players

The Wenax family is Geekvape's answer to the simple refillable pod, and it is the part of the lineup that matters most if you just left cigarettes behind. Wenax pods are small. Light. Refillable. Built for mouth-to-lung (MTL), the tight cigarette-style draw that pairs with nic salts. Modest power. Quick to learn. Tough little bodies that survive pocket life. This is what you hand a mate who wants Geekvape build quality without the wattage menus.

So the map is simple. Want toughness? Aegis. Want big clouds? Z. Want a simple salt-friendly pod? Wenax. Lines blur in some Aegis pod-mods, but those three headings tell you nearly everything.

Why refillable kit is UK-legal and cheaper to run

One of the loudest reasons to back a refillable brand has nothing to do with flavour and everything to do with the law and your wallet. Here is the score.

The law first. In 2025 the UK pulled the trigger on single-use disposables and banned them outright. Anything you could not recharge and refill got cleared off shelves. The whole market reshaped overnight. Geekvape sat right where it has always sat: every device in the core range is rechargeable and refillable by design, so the ban did not touch it. Buying a Geekvape today is buying into hardware that is going nowhere.

Now the money. Refillables crush disposables on long-term cost. You buy the device once. You top it up from a bottle of liquid that you pick. Bottled liquid costs a fraction of what the same volume costs in sealed pods, and a small bottle stretches a long way. Your only ongoing spend is liquid and the occasional coil — usually around £2 to £3 each, lasting anywhere from a week to several depending on how hard you push it. Compared to torching a disposable every day or two, the saving over a year is massive.

One thing to flag, though. From 1 October 2026 the UK switches on the new Vaping Products Duty of around £2.20 per 10ml of e-liquid. That tax bumps the cost of every bottle, refillable or not. It does not break the maths — bottle refills are still way cheaper per ml than prefilled pods — but it does end the era of cheap liquid. Which makes durable refillable hardware that you only buy once even smarter. A tough Geekvape that runs for years is exactly the kind of one-off spend that pays off.

Coils, tanks and airflow

This is the bit that decides whether you actually enjoy the device. Get it wrong and the best mod in the world will leave you cold. Get it right and a £15 pod kit will hit like a champion.

Vaping splits two ways. Mouth-to-lung (MTL) mimics how you smoke a cig: draw into the mouth, then into the lungs, through a tight restricted airflow. Small clouds. Sips liquid. Pairs with stronger nic salts. Most ex-smokers find it familiar. Direct-to-lung (DTL) is the opposite: one big breath straight into the lungs, wide-open airflow, fat clouds. Drinks liquid. Pairs with low nic strengths. The domain of sub-ohm tanks and serious mods. Geekvape devices lean clearly one way or the other, and the coil sets the style.

A coil is the small swappable heating element inside your pod or tank. It wicks liquid and turns it into vapour. Coils are measured in ohms. Higher-resistance coils, over 1.0 ohm, run at low power, sip liquid and give a tight MTL pull. Lower-resistance sub-ohm coils, under 1.0 ohm, run hot, drink fast and throw out big warm clouds. Geekvape's sub-ohm tanks like the Zeus use its Z coils. Pods and some tanks use the B-series coils. Each family has several resistances to suit different draws. Coil resistance matters more than the badge on the side.

The third piece is airflow. Nearly every Geekvape device has an adjustable airflow control — a slider or ring that opens and closes the air channel feeding the coil. Tighten it down for a restricted cigarette-style MTL pull. Open it up for a loose airy DTL blast. That single control covers a wide spread of preferences and lets you fine-tune the warmth of your hit. More air cools and softens. Less air concentrates and warms.

Practical takeaway: match your coil to the style first, then use airflow to tune. Tight MTL with salts? Higher-resistance coil, airflow closed up. Big DTL clouds? Sub-ohm coil, airflow wide open. Geekvape makes this easier than most because the coils are clearly labelled and spares are everywhere.

Specs at a glance

Specs shift by model and revision, so treat this as typical guidance across the lineup. Always check the listing for your specific kit.

• Device types: box mods, sub-ohm kits, pod-mods and refillable pods.
• Key families: Aegis (rugged, IP-rated), Z / Zeus (sub-ohm tanks and kits), Wenax (MTL pods).
• Power: Wenax pods run modest fixed or limited power; Aegis and Z mods offer adjustable wattage, up to around 100W or more on dual-battery models.
• Battery: pods usually built-in around 1000mAh; full mods take one or two removable high-drain 18650 or 21700 cells.
• Charging: USB-C on modern kit, with on-board charging on pods.
• Refillable: yes, every core device fills from a bottle; pod capacity typically around 2ml, tanks bigger.
• Coils: swappable Z coils for sub-ohm tanks, B-series for pods; roughly £2–3 each.
• Airflow: adjustable on nearly every device, covering both MTL and DTL.
• Durability: Aegis units carry IP ratings and shockproof construction; the rest is conventionally built.
• Typical price: pod kits £12–20, mod kits £30–50, coils £2–3.
• Legal status: fully UK-legal, refillable and rechargeable, untouched by the disposable ban.

Picking your liquid and strength

Buying the right device is half the battle. The other half is loading the right liquid. Mess this up and you will blame the kit when the kit is innocent.

Liquid comes in two main types. Nic salt liquid is smooth on the throat at high strengths and absorbs fast, which makes it the natural fuel for MTL pods like the Wenax. It kicks a craving quickly and gently — exactly what most ex-smokers want. Freebase liquid throws a stronger throat hit at the same strength and is the classic choice for sub-ohm DTL vaping at low strengths. Rule of thumb: salts in pods, low-strength freebase in sub-ohm tanks. Crank high-strength salt into a powerful sub-ohm mod and you will choke. Drop low-strength freebase into a tight MTL pod and most ex-smokers will feel cheated.

The other lever is the VG/PG ratio. PG carries flavour and throat hit, and runs thinner. VG runs thicker and makes more vapour. MTL pods want a balanced mix, often around 50/50, which wicks well through high-resistance coils. Sub-ohm tanks want high-VG liquid, usually 70/30 or higher, to feed the hungry low-resistance coils and pump out clouds. Force a thick high-VG liquid through a tight MTL coil and it will starve and burn.

Then strength, measured in mg per ml. This is where vapers most often crash. For a tight MTL pod, a heavier ex-smoker often kicks off at 20mg nic salt — the UK legal max — which broadly suits someone on a pack a day. Lighter smokers tend to land better at 10mg or 12mg. For a sub-ohm DTL kit, you need way lower strengths because you are inhaling so much more vapour, so 3mg to 6mg is the zone. Push higher and you will not enjoy it. Simple rule: more vapour, less nicotine.

If in doubt, aim a notch higher than you think for an MTL pod and drop down if it bites, and start low for sub-ohm. Spend a week or two finding your level instead of bailing on day one.

Performance, durability and battery

This is the territory where Geekvape pulls away from the pack. Let us hit each one.

On raw performance, the mods are top drawer. Chipsets fire fast. Wattage stays accurate and consistent. The Zeus sub-ohm tanks throw out warm, dense, flavour-packed vapour that holds up across long sessions. The top-airflow design on the Zeus is a genuine engineering win, slashing the leaking that wrecks bottom-airflow rivals. Flavour reproduction is sharp, the draw is smooth, and the adjustable airflow lets you tune the hit precisely. The Wenax pods are deliberately more modest, but they are reliable and the flavour off the small coils is clean.

On durability, the Aegis is in a class of one. The IP ratings are not marketing talk — they reflect real, tested protection, and the shockproof build genuinely survives drops that flatten ordinary devices. Owners routinely report Aegis units running for years of brutal daily use, getting dropped on building sites, soaked in the rain, and just carrying on. If you wreck gadgets, this is your brand. The non-Aegis devices are built to a normal standard — well made but no armour — so the toughness rep belongs specifically to the Aegis family.

On battery, the picture splits. The pods have built-in cells around 1000mAh, charged over USB-C — easy to live with, fine for a moderate day. The full mods are where the brand really shines for heavy hitters: they take removable high-drain cells, one or two 18650 or 21700 batteries depending on the model. Swappable cells are a huge win. Carry a charged spare and you have effectively unlimited runtime. Replace a tired cell after a couple of years and you keep the device. The catch is you need an external charger and you have to handle cells safely. For pure endurance, a dual-cell Aegis is about as good as vape hardware gets.

What hits

• Bulletproof durability. The Aegis line's IP-rated shockproof build is straight-up class-leading. Nothing else has the track record.
• Build quality across the range. Even the non-armoured pods feel solid. Tight tolerances. No creaks. No rattles.
• Strong performance. Mods fire fast and accurately. Zeus sub-ohm tanks deliver warm, dense, flavour-loaded vapour with leak-resistant top airflow.
• Swappable coils and parts. Z coils and B-series coils stocked everywhere at £2–3 each. Glass, pods and seals easy to find. A device runs for years.
• Real adjustability. Variable wattage on the mods, airflow on nearly everything. One device can cover MTL and DTL.
• Removable batteries on mods. Spare cells mean unlimited runtime, and a worn battery is swapped not binned.
• Refillable and UK-legal. Every core device fills from a bottle and recharges. Cheap to run. Untouched by the disposable ban.
• A device for every style. Wenax for ex-smokers. Z and Aegis for cloud chasers. The full spectrum covered.
• Long-term value. Buy once. Run cheap. Keep it going on spares. With duty arriving in October 2026, durable kit is the smart play.

What to watch

• Mods are not beginner-friendly. Wattage menus, coil resistances, airflow tuning and removable cells add complexity a fresh switcher does not need.
• Size and weight on bigger mods. The armour and dual cells that make the Aegis tough also make it heavy. Not a shirt-pocket device.
• Sub-ohm kits drink liquid and battery. Big clouds come at a cost. Matters more once duty pushes bottle prices up in October 2026.
• External charger needed for mods. Removable cells are a strength, but you need a charger and the discipline to handle batteries safely.
• Coil life varies. Sweet, dark or high-VG liquids chew through sub-ohm coils faster. Ongoing coil cost is small but real.
• Battery safety responsibility. Never carry loose high-drain cells with keys or coins. Re-wrap damaged batteries or retire them. Straightforward, but a duty pods do not impose.
• Choice can overwhelm. The breadth of Aegis, Z and Wenax models plus several coil families can confuse newcomers.
• Not the smallest pods. Wenax kits are pocketable but not the slimmest on the market. Some rivals win on pure discreetness.

Geekvape vs the rivals

Geekvape does not own the market on its own. Depending on what you want, a rival might suit you better. Here is the straight comparison.

Geekvape vs Vaporesso

Vaporesso is the closest peer: another big respected brand making solid refillable kit across the board. The split is on emphasis. Vaporesso leads on polish, ease and slick pods like the Xros line, which are excellent small MTL kits. Geekvape leads on ruggedness and serious mods. Want a smooth pocketable pod? Vaporesso often edges it. Want a device that shrugs off a flight of stairs, or a heavyweight sub-ohm mod? Geekvape pulls ahead. Both safe picks.

Geekvape vs Voopoo

Voopoo is famous for snappy fast-firing chipsets and the Argus and Drag lines, and it competes head-on with Geekvape at the mod end. Voopoo devices fire fast and lean performance-focused with bold styling. Geekvape counters with durability and leak-resistant Zeus tanks. For pure DTL chipset speed they are level-pegging. Often it comes down to whether you want IP-rated toughness or Voopoo's feature set and look. Both have loyal followings for solid reasons.

Geekvape vs Uwell Caliburn (for MTL)

If your only goal is a simple MTL pod for quitting smoking, the Uwell Caliburn is one of the most loved pods in that space — clean flavour, reliable, dead simple. Against it, the Geekvape Wenax brings excellent build quality and the usual Geekvape durability, but the Caliburn's flavour rep makes it the default many people grab. For a pure no-fuss MTL pod, Caliburn is hard to beat. If you specifically want Geekvape toughness in a pod, Wenax is the move. Either way, both crush any disposable for long-term value.

Price and value

Geekvape sits in the mid-range on price, which is exactly right for a durability brand: not the cheapest, but the value lands over time. The Wenax pods typically start around £12 to £20, putting them firmly in affordable territory for anyone leaving cigarettes behind. The mod kits, including the Aegis and Z series with tanks, usually run £30 to £50. More upfront, but you get a far more capable and durable device. Replacement coils are around £2 to £3 each, and spares for pods, glass and seals are cheap.

The value case rests on lifespan. A cheap device that dies in three months is no bargain. A £40 Aegis that survives three years of daily abuse absolutely is. Spread that price across the years it lasts and the monthly cost is tiny. The removable batteries mean you can swap a tired cell instead of binning the whole rig, stretching it further. Running cost is liquid and the occasional coil — both modest.

That picture shifts from 1 October 2026, when the new Vaping Products Duty of around £2.20 per 10ml raises bottle prices. This hits every vaper regardless of hardware, and it strengthens the case for durable refillable kit. If your liquid is getting pricier, you want hardware that is a one-off spend and runs efficiently. A long-haul Geekvape fits that brief.

Who should buy one

Geekvape is the right brand for some vapers and the wrong one for others, and being honest about that saves disappointment. You should seriously consider one if you are hard on your kit and have killed vapes by dropping or soaking them — the Aegis exists for you. You should consider it if you are an experienced DTL vaper who wants big clouds, bold flavour and full control over wattage and airflow — the Z and Aegis mods deliver. And you should consider the Wenax pods if you are an ex-smoker who wants Geekvape build quality in a simple MTL package.

Look elsewhere if you are a complete beginner who wants the most plug-and-play device possible — a simpler dedicated pod kit may suit you better on day one. Look elsewhere if your top priority is the smallest, lightest, most discreet device — Geekvape's strength is robustness, not minimalism. Match the brand to your needs and it will fire for years.

Setup tips and common problems

Most problems people blame on a device are actually setup or maintenance issues. Here is how to dodge them.

Prime every new coil. Most important habit. Before you use a fresh coil, drip a few drops of liquid directly onto the exposed cotton ports, fit it, fill the pod or tank, and wait a full five minutes before firing. The cotton needs to soak through. Hit a dry coil and you torch the cotton instantly — a foul burnt taste no amount of liquid will undo. Priming and patience is the difference between a coil that lasts weeks and one ruined on the first puff.

Dodge burnt hits. Beyond priming, take gentle pulls on a new coil. Do not chain-fire a sub-ohm setup — you will outrun the wicking. Refill before the tank goes low so the coil never starves. On the mods, stay within the coil's wattage range, usually printed on the coil itself. Push it too hot and you torch the coil and the taste.

Stop leaks. Geekvape Zeus tanks are unusually leak-resistant by design, but any tank can leak if mishandled. Do not overfill. Keep liquid out of the central airflow tube when filling. Close the airflow if you are storing the device on its side. Make sure the coil and glass are seated and tightened. If a tank starts leaking, check the seals and that the coil is screwed in fully — a tiny gap is usually the culprit.

Charge sensibly. On pods, charge over USB-C and avoid leaving the device on charge unattended overnight. On the mods, it matters more: use a quality external charger for removable cells, only use undamaged batteries with intact wraps, replace any cell whose wrap is torn, and use cells with a high-drain rating fit for sub-ohm vaping. Crucially: never carry loose batteries in a pocket or bag with keys, coins or other metal. Shorting a cell can make it vent. Carry spares in a plastic battery case. Simple but vital.

Keep it clean. Periodically rinse the tank or pod with warm water and let it dry fully before refilling. Wipe the contacts. Swap coils at the first sign of dulling flavour rather than soldiering on. A little maintenance keeps the hit fresh.

Verdict

Geekvape earned its name the hard way. This is a brand that set out to be the toughest hardware in vaping and actually delivered, with the IP-rated Aegis line setting a durability bar nothing else really clears. Around the flagship sits a deep capable range: the Zeus-derived Z series for cloud-chasing DTL vapers, and the Wenax pods for ex-smokers who want quality in a simple MTL shell. Every device is refillable, rechargeable, UK-legal and cheap to run, with widely stocked coils and spares.

It is not for everyone. The mods carry a learning curve and a bulk that a beginner or minimalist will reject, and the lineup breadth can overwhelm. But for the right vaper — the one who is hard on their kit, or who wants serious control, or who values hardware built to outlast the trend cycle — Geekvape is one of the safest and most rewarding picks on the market. As e-liquid duty kicks in on 1 October 2026 and durable refillable hardware gets even smarter, a well-chosen Geekvape is exactly the kind of buy-once-and-keep-it device that earns its place.

FAQs

Is Geekvape a good brand?

Yes. Geekvape is widely rated as one of the best hardware brands in vaping, especially for durability and build quality. The Aegis line is famous for shockproof, dust-sealed and water-resistant builds with proper IP ratings, and the Zeus sub-ohm tanks are respected for performance and leak resistance. Quality kit across the range, from simple pods to serious mods.

Are Geekvape devices legal in the UK?

Yes. Every core Geekvape device is refillable and rechargeable by design, so it was untouched by the 2025 single-use disposable ban. You fill the pod or tank from a bottle and charge the battery. The kit is fully UK-legal and going nowhere.

Which Geekvape device is best for switching from smoking?

For most fresh switchers, a Wenax pod kit is the right starting point. Small, refillable MTL pods made for nic salts and a tight cigarette-style draw, which is what most ex-smokers find familiar. The mods are excellent but more device than a beginner needs on day one.

What is the difference between Aegis, Z and Wenax?

Aegis is the rugged IP-rated family built for durability, in mods and pod-mods. Z (Zeus) is built around sub-ohm tanks for big-cloud DTL vaping by experienced users. Wenax is simple refillable MTL pods aimed at ex-smokers using nic salts. Pick by what you want: toughness, clouds or simplicity.

How much do Geekvape coils cost and how often do they need changing?

Geekvape coils, including Z coils and B-series, typically run £2 to £3 each. Lifespan depends on how much you vape and what liquid you use, but most people swap somewhere between one and several weeks. Dark, sweet or high-VG liquids burn coils faster. A dulling or burnt taste is the cue to change.

How much does a Geekvape kit cost?

Wenax pod kits typically start around £12 to £20, while mod kits like the Aegis and Z series usually land between £30 and £50. Replacement coils are around £2 to £3, with spare pods, glass and seals cheap. Prices are approximate and vary by retailer.

What nicotine strength should I use in a Geekvape?

Depends on the device. For an MTL pod like the Wenax, a heavier ex-smoker often starts at 20mg nic salt, with lighter smokers at 10mg to 12mg. For a sub-ohm DTL kit, strengths need to drop way lower — usually 3mg to 6mg freebase — because you inhale far more vapour. More vapour, less nicotine.

Why does my Geekvape taste burnt?

A burnt taste almost always means the coil fired without being properly soaked, or the coil is finished. Always prime a new coil by adding a few drops of liquid to the cotton and waiting five minutes before firing. Never let the tank run dry. Take gentle pulls on a fresh coil. Stay within the coil's wattage range. If the coil is genuinely burnt out, replace it.

Are Geekvape Aegis devices really waterproof?

Aegis devices carry IP ratings for dust and water resistance, which reflect real independently tested protection against splashes and brief exposure — not a diving badge. In practice they survive rain, dust and drops far better than ordinary vapes, which is why tradespeople and outdoor users love them. Always check the specific IP rating of your model.

Do I need a separate battery charger for a Geekvape mod?

For full mods with removable batteries, yes — use a dedicated external charger and handle cells safely: only undamaged batteries, never carry loose cells with keys or coins, and pick high-drain cells suited to sub-ohm vaping. The pods, by contrast, have built-in batteries charged over USB-C, so no separate charger needed.

Frequently asked questions

Is Geekvape a good brand in the UK?

Yes, Geekvape is one of the most respected hardware brands on the UK market, especially for durability. The Aegis line carries proper IP ratings for shockproof, dust-sealed and water-resistant builds, and the Zeus sub-ohm tanks have earned a reputation for leak-resistant top-airflow performance. Solid kit across pods, mods and tanks.

Are Geekvape vapes legal in the UK after the disposable ban?

Yes, every core Geekvape device is fully UK-legal. The entire lineup is refillable and rechargeable by design, so the 2025 single-use disposable ban did not touch it. You fill the pod or tank from a bottle and charge over USB-C or swap a removable cell.

What is the best Geekvape device for someone quitting smoking?

A Geekvape Wenax pod kit is the natural starting point for ex-smokers. Wenax pods are small, refillable MTL devices built for nic salts and a tight cigarette-style draw, typically priced £12 to £20. The bigger Aegis and Z mods are excellent but more device than a fresh switcher needs on day one.

What is the difference between Geekvape Aegis, Z and Wenax?

Aegis is the rugged IP-rated family built for durability, in both full mods and pod-mods. The Z (Zeus) series centres on sub-ohm tanks and kits for big-cloud direct-to-lung vaping. Wenax is the simple refillable MTL pod range for ex-smokers using nic salts. Pick toughness, clouds or simplicity.

How much do Geekvape coils cost and how long do they last?

Geekvape Z coils and B-series coils typically cost around £2 to £3 each in the UK. Lifespan varies from roughly one week to several depending on how hard you vape and what liquid you run. Dark, sweet or high-VG liquids chew through sub-ohm coils faster, and a dulling or burnt taste is the cue to swap.

What nicotine strength should I use in a Geekvape pod or mod?

It depends on the device. For an MTL Wenax pod, heavier ex-smokers often start at 20mg nic salt (the UK legal max), with lighter smokers landing better at 10mg or 12mg. For a sub-ohm DTL kit like a Z or Aegis mod, drop right down to 3mg to 6mg freebase, because you inhale far more vapour. More vapour, less nicotine.

Why does my Geekvape taste burnt and how do I fix it?

A burnt taste almost always means the coil fired before the cotton was fully soaked, or the coil is finished. Prime every new coil by dripping liquid onto the exposed cotton ports, fitting it, filling the tank and waiting a full five minutes before firing. Stay within the printed wattage range, refill before the tank runs low, and replace the coil if the burnt note will not lift.

Are Geekvape Aegis devices actually waterproof?

Aegis devices carry IP ratings for dust and water resistance based on real independent testing, but that is a splash-and-rain badge, not a diving certificate. In practice they comfortably survive downpours, drops and dust that would kill an ordinary vape, which is why tradespeople and outdoor crews swear by them. Always check the specific IP rating of your model.
