Among them, the new small-capacity pod system - SKE BAR has been launched on some e-cigarette distributors' websites in the UK. 2Firsts analyzed the product information of SKE BAR e-cigarette.

 

Parameter information: The parameters of the disposable e-cigarette SKE Crystal Bar are basically the same

 

Previously, SKE had launched its signature disposable e-cigarette, the SKE Crystal Bar. The newly released SKE BAR e-cigarette has a design that is very similar to the SKE Crystal Bar. 2Firsts has conducted a detailed comparison of the specifications of these two products, with specific information shown in the table below.

In terms of specifications, the disposable e-cigarette SKE Crystal Bar and the pod system SKE BAR are consistent in terms of puff count, e-liquid capacity, coil resistance, atomizer core, and battery specifications; the main difference between the two lies in the different product forms they take.

 

It is worth noting that in the past, SKE has released products using the naming convention of "SKE Crystal+", but recently, several new products from SKE have not included the term "Crystal" in their names.

The design of the SKE BAR e-cigarette is likely intended to comply with this upcoming regulation. Currently, multiple brands, including INNOKIN Trine, have already introduced products that meet this requirement (for more information, please read "Innokin Trine: A Revolutionary Rechargeable E-Cigarette with Replaceable Battery").

U.S. Rep. Krishnamoorthi Questions FDA Over Planned PMTA Rewrite, Seeks Communications With Altria and Reynolds
U.S. Rep. Raja Krishnamoorthi on Oct. 6 questioned the FDA over its plan to reassess and potentially replace the 2021 PMTA regulatory framework, asking the agency to identify provisions it may change or eliminate, state whether current scientific evidentiary standards will be maintained, and disclose communications with Altria, Reynolds and other parties challenging the rule.

Wall Street Journal: U.S. FDA Plans Faster Vape and Nicotine Pouch Reviews, Revisit of 2021 PMTA Rule
The Trump administration is preparing changes intended to accelerate FDA market authorization reviews for e-cigarettes and nicotine pouches, according to The Wall Street Journal. The FDA is expected to revisit its 2021 PMTA rule and may simplify some scientific study requirements and shorten review times. The agency has not formally announced the changes. Over the past year, the FDA has already accelerated nicotine-pouch reviews, expanded ENDS authorizations and upgraded its CTP Portal NextGen application system. As of August 2026, 43 nicotine pouch products and 48 e-cigarette products had received FDA marketing authorization.

Global Nicotine-Pouch E-Commerce Group Haypp Shuts Sweden’s Snusnetto Over Age Verification as Identity Checks Become Industry Infrastructure for New Nicotine Products
Global Nicotine-Pouch E-Commerce Group Haypp Shuts Sweden’s Snusnetto Over Age Verification as Identity Checks Become Industry Infrastructure for New Nicotine Products
Sweden's Supreme Administrative Court has declined to hear an appeal over age verification for tobacco and nicotine products collected from parcel lockers, leaving in place a lower-court ruling that geo-located BankID verification is insufficient to securely verify the actual recipient. Haypp Group has stopped tobacco and nicotine sales through Snusnetto and is deploying a new system across its other Swedish e-commerce sites to verify the age of the person who actually opens the locker and receives the shipment. The change comes as age verification across next-generation nicotine products expands from purchase checks into retail, delivery and, for some e-cigarettes, device access itself.
