Geek Vapes influence in the vaping industry has been a driving force with their competitors and their funky, exciting, and high-tech kits are sold all over the world.

If you are worried about vaping for the first time, then Geek Bars are the device for you. The Bars have been designed to be as easy to use as possible, making them appealing in the first place. The exterior is smooth and sleek, as well as being small enough to fit in your hand and carry in your pocket or purse. They are totally encased in brightly coloured plastic that is not only funky and vibrant but makes them totally leak proof so you don’t have to worry about keeping them the right way up all the time. The innovative inhale draw activation method truly is the most convenient there is, all you need to do is inhale to start the battery up. This then heats up the wicking material and liquid to produce vape – that’s it! The draw has been set perfectly so it is not too tight or too loose, there really is nothing that you need to think about
They were designed to be used straight out of the box – and boy, Geek Bars don’t disappoint.
You will know when your Geek Bar is running out as you will notice a considerable drop in power and flavour, and eventually you will not be able to puff anything out. Thanks to the battery and liquid ratio, you won’t get the burnt taste that you often get with other vaping devices. If you are worried that you won’t notice your Geek Bar running out, there is a handy blue LED light on the bottom of the device which will go out once your bar is at the end of its life.
The short answer is – yes, Geek Bars are completely safe to use. The reason that there are so many stories circulating about the safety of Geeks bars is due to the amount of fake and counterfeit bars that have flooded the market in recent times. It is these fake bars that are leaking, overheating and not compliant with current rules and regulations surrounding the sale of vaping products in the UK.
In order to be complaint, disposable vapes must adhere to the below rules:
As fake and counterfeit products bypass these rules, you cannot be certain that you are using a safe vaping product. To prevent further sales of fake Geek Bars, Geek Vape have introduced the verification tool so you know you are using a genuine product. There will be a security code on your device box as a holographic sticker, and all you need to do is enter the code on the Geek Bar website to verify your device. If you cannot find the security code or it comes back negative, you have been sold a counterfeit product and it should be disposed of immediately.
If you have verified your product, then the only thing that you need to think about is how safe vaping is. Luckily, all products in the UK have to follow the strict rules above, and Geek Bars are a trusted, reputable and recognised brand in the vaping industry. In addition to this, the fact that the Geek Bars are sold ready to use (pre-filled and fully charged) there is little room for operational errors.
There have been a lot of reports in the media lately about ‘super strong’ Geek Bars, and the fact that they have made their way into the hands of teenagers. Thanks to the influx of counterfeit products on the market, and those shop owners who are not trusted and reputable, unfortunately it is easier than ever for teenagers to get their hands on vaping products.
Any type of vaping product should not be used by teenagers, and the same rule as tobacco applies to them. The UK law states that the minimum age for purchase and use of vaping products is 18, and you should treat any teenager that you see vaping the same way that you would if you saw them smoking. We advise that vaping should be used as an aid to quit smoking, and only those who have smoked before should take up vaping. If you find that your teenager does have access to vaping products, such as your own or older siblings, then explain the risks and consequences of using them, and make sure that you always keep them out of the way.
Here at Vape and Go, we are dedicated to ensuring that all our customers and the safest vaping experience possible. We only stock products from trusted, reputable, and compliant suppliers, so you know that you are only going to be purchasing genuine and verified products. In addition to this, we also use age verification on all our orders to prevent sales to any minors.
Our aim is to help people to quit smoking for good, and all of our products including vape pods are chosen with this goal in mind. The best way to make your vaping experience the best it can be is to make sure that you are well informed and have an amazing range to choose from at prices to suit everyone. If you have any questions or queries, we are always happy to help with any guidance or advice.

People are talking about the Hyola Ultra 30k because it quietly makes sense. Not because it is flashy or trying to be different, but because it lines up with how most people actually vape now. A lot of users are tired of buying disposables over and over again, but they also do not want something complicated. They want the same ease, just with more life in it. That is where this kit fits in.
Another big reason is trust. Vapers are starting to care less about features and more about whether a device stays consistent. They want the flavour to taste the same after a week as it did on day one. They want the draw to feel familiar every time. The Hyola Ultra 30k keeps things simple and does not try to do too much, which is why it keeps coming up in everyday conversations.

Whether you prefer something simple and prefilled or a refillable device you can personalise, brands like Vaporess pods, OXVA pods, Elf Bar pods, SKE, and Hayati pods, IVG have all stepped up with impressive releases this year.

The UK vape market has shifted in a noticeable way this year. With disposables being phased out and brands pushing harder than ever on flavour quality, battery performance and overall design, 2025 has become a standout year for vape kits. The latest devices feel more refined, more consistent and far better suited for everyday use, giving vapers a level of reliability that simply wasn’t there before.
What makes this year especially interesting is how different brands have approached their upgrades. Some, like Hayati, Elux, Elf Bar and SKE Crystal, have taken the bold, sweet flavours people loved in disposables and built proper reusable kits around them. Others, Vaporesso, OXVA, Hyola, and Aspire, have focused on stronger coil technology, smoother airflow and premium build quality for users who want something more advanced. IVG sits comfortably in the middle, offering clean flavour and stable performance without leaning too far in either direction.
Whether you’re switching from disposables, looking for a more reliable daily kit or simply ready for something that delivers better flavour and battery life, 2026 offers more good choices than ever. Let’s go through the top vape kits of 2026 and see what each one brings to the table so you can find the one that feels right for you.

The UK vape tax 2026 starts on 1 October 2026 and introduces a new excise duty, the Vaping Products Duty, on vape liquids sold in the UK. It applies to nicotine and nicotine-free liquids, including bottled e-liquids and the liquid inside prefilled pods.
The key point is simple: this duty is not based on nicotine strength. HMRC’s published approach is a flat rate per millilitre, so the total duty in the price depends on how many ml you buy, not whether the liquid is 0mg or contains nicotine.
This guide from Vape and Go explains how the duty works, shows clear volume-based examples, and includes a practical cost calculator and compliance checklist so adult customers know what to expect.
