Recently, 2FIRSTS, an e-cigarette online sales platform in the UK, has noticed a new trend in products: disposable e-cigarette devices equipped with multiple pods, known as "N in 1" combinations.

 

This type of product is similar to the IVG2400, where the vape pen contains multiple interchangeable pods. Each pod holds 2 milliliters of e-cigarette liquid, and users can rotate the pen to switch out pods. The overall design combines both disposable and refillable functions.

On the official ELFBAR UK website, 2FIRSTS discovered that the brand is set to launch a new product, ELFBAR 1200, equipped with two 2ml pods, claiming to provide 1200 puffs. Its working principle is similar to that of IVG2400.

In addition, other well-known e-cigarette brands in the UK have also introduced similar products. For example, SKE has launched the SKE Crystal 2400, which has 4 built-in pods, each containing 2 milliliters of e-liquid, claiming to be able to offer 2400 puffs. Similarly, the brand SKY HUNTER has also launched a new product, SKY HUNTER2600, which also has 4 built-in pods. According to e-cigarette logistics workers in the UK, they have been receiving an increasing number of orders for disposable devices that include multiple pods.

Industry insiders also pointed out that in addition to products with four pods, it is rumored that companies are developing disposable devices that include five or even more pods. As IVG has already registered patents for its four-pod products, many manufacturers are developing products with a different number of pods to avoid patent infringement.

In a written interview with 2Firsts, Chemular detailed Safeguard’s external packaging approach, its customer-specific testing requirements and possible PMTA pathways. The model remains early-stage, but it offers a new way to think about an increasingly important regulatory and manufacturing issue.

Sweden Finds ZYN Ingredient Labels Noncompliant Over Generic Flavoring Disclosure, Swedish Match Faces SEK 2 Million Monthly Penalty
Sweden's Public Health Agency has found ingredient labels on ZYN nicotine pouches sold by Philip Morris International subsidiary Swedish Match to be noncompliant, according to Dagens industri.
