Available through specialist vape retailers and convenience stores, Geek Bar has a recommended retail price of £8 for the J1 pod system while a twin-pack of 2ml pod refills will cost £5. The 500mHA battery can be recharged via a USB device.
Featuring the latest KA mesh coil technology, the J1 Pod is claimed to provide more vapour and a more consistent, mellower flavour.
Geek Bar says the “silky smooth experience” is very different from the rough sensation associated with tobacco products, “and this may encourage more smokers to kick the habit and switch to vapes”.
The company says its J1 Pod offers an alternative vaping experience for people looking to give up smoking tobacco products, especially at a time when incomes are being squeezed and a typical pack of 20 cigarettes can cost £10 or more.
The product comes in the company’s newly designed packaging, which features a more visible age restriction warning against sale to minors.
To combat counterfeiting, the redesign also carries a prominent security code which retailers and consumers can use to check the authenticity of the product and ensure they are not buying a fake product.
The J1 is one of a number of upgraded vape devices now available from Geek Bar following approval from the Medicines Healthcare regulatory Agency (MHRA).
“They are lightweight and compact, suitable for on-the-go vaping and prefilled with 20mg of nicotine as well as up to 2ml of e-liquid. Offering 600 puffs per device, they are designed for mouth-to-lung vapers in particular, who want to replicate the experience of smoking through a consistent throat hit,” Geek Bar adds.
The J1 Pod will offer 11 different flavours: ginger soda, tropical skittles blast, orange vanilla, tropical fruit, lime cherry, mango smoothie, watermelon ice, pink lemonade, kiwi passion fruit guava, cheesy blueberry jelly, lime cactus.
“Having different flavours for different moods and situations offers more choices for consumers,” concludes the vape company.
