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.

As FDA Reshapes PMTA Reviews and ENDS Enforcement Priorities, CTP Acting Director Bret Koplow to Keynote NATO Event for a Retail Network of 66,000-Plus Stores
Bret Koplow, acting director of the U.S. Food and Drug Administration's Center for Tobacco Products, will deliver a keynote and participate in a fireside chat at the National Association of Tobacco Outlets' Sept. 29-30 conference in Washington. His appearance comes months after the FDA moved to accelerate PMTA reviews and introduced a more differentiated enforcement policy for certain unauthorized ENDS and oral nicotine pouch products. The agency also plans a public list identifying manufacturers and products it does not currently intend to prioritize for enforcement under the May guidance. NATO says its membership includes more than 66,000 retail stores, making product-status transparency and enforcement boundaries directly relevant to the retail sector.

Special Report|AIR H1 Revenue Rises 3.7% as Shisha Volumes Fall 9%, Testing Its Shift Beyond Traditional Hookah
AIR’s first half-year results as a listed company offer a new test of how far a traditional hookah business can transform. H1 2026 revenue rose 3.7%, even as Flavored Shisha Molasses shipments fell 9%, with pricing and mix supporting growth. Traditional shisha still generates almost all revenue, while OOKA, Crown Switch, Greentank and U.S. regulatory spending point to accelerating diversification. The next test is whether those investments can become a second business of meaningful scale and profitability.
