SKE makes some of our best-selling vape kits, including their famous Crystal Bar 600 vapes. However, with the disposable vape ban taking effect in June 2025, what do you do if you’re a SKE fan who needs something new?
Well, there’s no need to worry. We stock a huge range of prefilled and refillable options from SKE, so there’s something for every taste and budget. This blog post explores the best SKE vape kits for those who are struggling to decide and discusses what to look for in the right kit.
The Best SKE Disposable Vape Alternatives
If you’re looking for a reusable SKE kit that tastes just like the disposable version and offers the same strength and overall experience, you’ve come to the right place.
All of the kits we’ve suggested below are pod kits, so they come with a range of benefits over disposable vapes, such as:
-
Much better for the environment - way less plastic and lithium gets thrown away
-
Cheaper in the long run - you keep the battery and buy replacement pods
-
You still get access to all your favourite SKE disposable flavours
So, let’s take a look.
SKE Bar 600 & Bar 600 Pro Prefilled Pod Vape Kits
Although they are two different devices, we’ve grouped the SKE Bar 600 prefilled device and the SKE Crystal Bar 600 Pro kit because they are very similar and are the closest you will get to their disposable counterpart.
Both kits use prefilled pods with a sleek, pocket-friendly battery that comes in a wide range of colours. Both models feature a 500mAh capacity, good for around 600 puffs, USB-C charging, and utilise SKE’s tantalising 20mg nicotine salts. This means you get the widest choice of flavours to suit your tastes.
They differ in how you replace the pod, as they both use different types of prefilled pods. The SKE Crystal Bar Pro uses regular, easy-to-replace pods that just sit in the top compartment of the battery device. The SKE Bar 600, on the other hand, uses a prefilled pod that acts as the device's outer shell, meaning that you have to remove the whole outer plastic body attached to the prefilled pod to replace it.

SKE Crystal CL6000 Prefilled Pod Vape Kit
The SKE Crystal CL6000 boasts a massive 6000 puff count from its large battery and 2+10ml pod system - that’s 10x the puffs you’d get from a disposable. If you don’t like having to change pods or keep recharging, this is the kit for you.
The CL6000 is optimised to provide consistent levels of flavour from the first puff to the last, and the integrated battery display means you won’t get caught short when you’re out and about. What’s more, the CL6000 pods include a premium mesh coil, with a 2+10ml tank that auto-refills, packed into a system that’s super easy to change on the go.
In terms of experience, it offers everything you love from a disposable with none of the drawbacks. It’s affordable in its own right, but you can take advantage of our multibuy pod deals to make your money go even further. Compared to using just disposables, it’ll pay for itself in no time.
SKE Crystal CL6000 Pros & Cons
Pros
- Very affordable and economical
- Huge puff count and battery capacity
- Compact and convenient
Cons
- Not available in 10mg strengths
- Fixed power output only
- Fewer flavour choices than other SKE products
SKE Crystal Plus Refillable Pod Vape Kit
Similar to other SKE Bar vapes in appearance, the SKE Crystal Plus refillable kit offers even more flexibility and choice due to its ability to use prefilled and refillable pods, variable airflow, and different strengths.
Although they’re functionally the same, refillable pods can be refilled with your choice of SKE Crystal Original Salts in 10mg or 20mg strengths. However, SKE Crystal Plus prefilled pods can still be used for convenience.
Not only does this open up a whole range of flavours (also from other brands), but it means that even less plastic waste goes to landfill, as you can reuse the pod again and again. It’s also kinder on your wallet - a 10ml bottle of e-liquid is good for around 3,000 puffs, meaning this bundle kit equates to around 10 x SKE Crystal Bar disposables.
SKE Crystal Plus Refillable Pod Vape Kit Pros & Cons
Pros
- Very economical
- Best for the environment
- E-liquids available in various strengths
Cons
- You’ll have to carry e-liquid with you to top up
- 400mAh battery won’t last as long as others
- More complicated than a disposable
SKE Crystal 4-in-1 Prefilled Pod Vape Kit
What if you could have 4 disposable vapes in your pocket at the same time? Each with a different flavour so you could pick and choose as you wanted? Well, that’s essentially what the SKE Crystal 4-in-1 vape kit is.
This device features four 2ml prefilled pods, each containing different flavours, which can be switched on the fly - just spin the chamber around. The rechargeable 950mAh battery, combined with the 8ml total liquid, means you get around 2400 puffs. Choose from:
-
Blue Edition: Blueberry Sour Raspberry / Cola Ice / Blueberry Raspberry / Blueberry Peach
-
Green Edition: Lemon & Lime / Blue Razz Lemonade / Fruit Medley / Lychee Ice
-
Rose Edition: Cherry Ice / Fizzy Cherry / Strawberry Burst / White Peach Razz
-
White Edition: Watermelon Ice / Pink Lemonade / Watermelon Strawberry / Melon Berry
Have you got a taste you just love? Don’t worry, you can also buy replacement pods with the same flavour.
Alongside this flexibility, you get the performance and flavour you’ve come to love from SKE. A 1.1Ω coil and 11W output give you a smooth, satisfying MTL hit with 20mg strength pods.
SKE Crystal 4-in-1 Pros & Cons
Pros
- Maximum flexibility
- Huge puff count
- Very affordable
Cons
- Less compact than other devices
- The 4-in-1 pods cost more
- Only one pod in use at a time
Choosing The Right SKE Kit For You
Choosing a pod vape kit is not the same for everyone, as we all want different things. To make sure you get the right device for you, you need to consider several things.
Firstly, do you want something you can just charge, vape, and forget, or would you rather something more complex but with more customisation? If it’s the latter, look for a device with a screen, a variable airflow adjuster, and different power outputs. Likewise, if you want control over your nicotine intake, look for kits with different-strength pods or consider refillable options.
You should also consider your flavour preferences and decide which product line offers the best choices for you. If you like to mix it up, a refillable pod kit will allow you to use e-liquids from other brands, too.
Lastly, think about your budget. Pod vape kits can be incredibly cheap, and will often pay for themselves very quickly compared to disposables, especially if you take advantage of our multibuy deals on pods.
