RELX MaxGo 12K Prefilled Pod Kit

RELX MaxGo 12K Prefilled Pod Kit

Since the single-use disposable ban came into force in June 2025, the format that replaced the old bars is the rechargeable, pod-replaceable kit. The RELX MaxGo 12K is one of the tidier examples: a compact reusable device that takes prefilled 2ml pods at nic salt strength, auto-fed from a refill reservoir, for up to 12,000 puffs before you swap the pod.

Mesh coil, USB-C charging, draw-to-fire. If you liked the simplicity of a bar but want something rechargeable and cheaper to run, this is built for exactly that.

Why vapers pick this one:

• Reusable body, replaceable pods. Keep the device, swap the pod when flavour fades. Cheaper per puff than a throwaway.

• Auto-refill system keeps the coil fed, so flavour holds steady rather than fading off.

• 18mg nic salt on a tight MTL draw gives a smooth, quick hit.

• Mesh coil for cleaner taste and more even heating than older wire coils.

• USB-C charging tops up the 600mAh battery back up quickly.

• Compact and pocket-friendly at 60 x 33 x 120mm, with a draw-activated fire so there are no buttons to learn.

RELX MaxGo 12K Features

A Reusable Kit, Not a Throwaway

The MaxGo 12K is a Big-Puff Pod Kit you recharge and refill by swapping pods, not a single-use bar. That is the whole point of the format that replaced disposables: you buy the device once, then keep it running on fresh pods. Over a few weeks, that works out noticeably cheaper than binning a bar every couple of days.

Auto-Refill Keeps the Flavour Steady

Rather than one small pod that drains and fades, the MaxGo pairs a 2ml tank with a larger refill container. A sensor drip-feeds the tank as it empties, which keeps the coil wet and helps avoid the dry, harsh pulls you get when a bar runs low. You just vape until the reservoir is spent, then change the pod.

Mesh Coil for Cleaner Taste

Each pod runs a mesh coil, heating a wider surface than a traditional wire coil. That means the nic salt vaporises evenly, so flavour comes through cleaner and holds up longer. Paired with the device's modest output, it is tuned for taste rather than big clouds.

Built for a Tight MTL Draw

The MaxGo is a Mouth-to-Lung device: a snug, controlled draw rather than an airy one, which suits steady all-day use on 18mg nic salt. It fires on inhale, so there is nothing to press. Every kit Pirate Vapes sells goes out through age-verified checkout, over-18s only.

Small Enough to Forget You're Carrying It

At 60 x 33 x 120mm it slips into a pocket easily, and the clear liquid window means you can see at a glance when a pod is running down. Simple, compact, low-maintenance.

How to Set Up the RELX MaxGo 12K

Quick to get going.

1. Charge the 600mAh battery fully over USB-C before first use. Note the cable is supplied separately.

2. Take the 2ml tank, peel off the top sticker and rubber cover, then remove the bung from the refill container.

3. Connect the tank and refill container together until they click securely.

4. Slot the combined pod into the device and slide the mouthpiece on top.

5. Let the pod stand for two to three minutes so the mesh coil wicks through before your first pull.

6. Draw to vape. It is draw-activated, so there are no buttons. Recharge as needed and swap the pod once the flavour fades.

What's in the RELX MaxGo 12K Box

• One RELX MaxGo 12K device, 

• One 2ml tank 

• And one refill container. 

You supply the USB-C cable and any spare pods separately.

Made to Run on RELX MaxGo Pods

The kit runs on RELX's own MaxGo pods and nothing else. The same pods also fit the larger MaxGo 33K, so if you run both you only need to stock one pod type. When a flavour fades, you swap the pod rather than refilling by hand, and a spare set means you are never caught out. The matching pods sit alongside the rest of our Replacement Pods, and the device lives with our other Big Puff Vapes.

What will not fit: pods from other brands. Lost Mary, Hayati, SKE and Elf Bar cartridges are shaped for their own devices and will not seat in the MaxGo.

About RELX

RELX is one of the larger global vape brands, known for compact, well-finished pod hardware. The MaxGo line is its answer to the post-ban market: reusable devices that run on prefilled, auto-refill pods instead of being thrown away.

The 12K is the smaller sibling to the 33K, sharing the same pod system. Every RELX kit we stock is built to UK spec with a 2ml pod and is TPD compliant.

Stock Up and Save

With the device sorted, the pods are your running cost, so it pays to keep a couple in the drawer. Buying a set through our Plunder Packs brings the per-pod price down and keeps you covered when one runs dry.

Every Pirate Vapes order ships same day before 4 pm, through age-verified checkout, over-18s only, MHRA-notified, all TPD compliant. Free Pirate Post lands over £40.

Conclusion

The RELX MaxGo 12K does the job the disposable ban left open: a small, rechargeable device that runs on prefilled auto-refill pods, backed by up to 12,000 puffs and a mesh coil that keeps flavour clean.

Sixteen flavours, a tight MTL draw, and pods you swap rather than a device you bin. If you want bar-style simplicity in a reusable shell, it is an easy pick. Browse more vape accessories or head back to Pirate Vapes to finish your order.

FAQs

How many puffs does the MaxGo 12K give?

Up to 12,000 per pod, which is a solid stretch of daily use. The exact figure depends on how long and hard you draw.

Is the RELX MaxGo 12K rechargeable?

Yes. It charges over USB-C, and you replace the pods rather than the whole device. The cable is supplied separately.

How does the RELX MaxGo 12K refill work?

A sensor auto-fills the 2ml tank from the connected refill container, so the coil stays wet. You do not refill by hand. When the liquid runs out, swap the pod.

What nicotine strength is the RELX MaxGo 12K?

18mg (1.8%) nic salt, a smooth but firm hit on a tight MTL draw.

Do other brands' pods fit the RELX MaxGo 12K?

No. It only takes RELX MaxGo pods, which also fit the MaxGo 33K. Lost Mary, Hayati, and SKE pods will not seat correctly.

Is the RELX MaxGo 12K a disposable?

No. It is a reusable, rechargeable pod kit, not a single-use bar. You keep the device and buy pods.
