We take a look at the singular vaping success story that is Uwell’s bestselling, game-changing pod kit the Caliburn, and why the series offers some of the best pod kits you can buy in 2023…
For a company that became synonymous with high-end vape tanks and similar enthusiast hardware in the 2010s, it came as something of a surprise for the industry to see Uwell tilt so hard towards pod kits in the new decade. But when the seismic, transformative success of the JUUL pre-filled pod kit in 2017/18 showed the world how vaping could be far simpler and more accessible for legions of smokers to make the switch away from traditional tobacco and cigarettes, it was perhaps less surprising that Uwell, along with many other vape manufacturers, would invest in this exciting new form of pocket and wallet-friendly vaping device.
While vape giants such as Smok, Voopoo and Geek Vape powered the pod revolution with now-iconic products like the Smok Nord, Voopoo Vinci and Geek Vape Aegis, few predicted that Uwell, a company most famous for their Crown series of exemplary sub-ohm vape tanks, and novel advanced vape kits like the Nunchaku 2 (with motion sensor controls!), would produce one of the most universally adored pod kits in the world in the form of the Uwell Caliburn.
So what makes this legendary little vape – and its subsequent Caliburn iterations – so popular, even in a category as crowded as pod kits? To answer that question, let’s take a look at the kind of vape device that the Uwell Caliburn has come to exemplify better than perhaps any other vape kit.
What are Pod Vape Kits?
Pod Vape Kits provide the perfect blend of portability, user-friendliness, and performance. They make for excellent devices for experienced vapers as well as for those contemplating a seamless and enjoyable transition from smoking to vaping.
Pod kits are as diverse as they are versatile and are available in a plethora of shapes and sizes. They range from models with pre-filled e-liquid pods to those you can fill with your favourite e-liquid. Some are designed with replaceable coils to satisfy the experimental vapers, while others feature a fixed coil for the convenience. The vast selection of Pod Kits at Vapestore ensures a suitable device for every vaping style, from sleek, slim, low-powered kits apt for high-PG, 50/50 and nic salt e-liquids, to robust sub-ohm pod devices compatible with high-VG e-liquids.
In comparison to more sophisticated Advanced Vape Kits, Pod Vape Kits are remarkably easy to use and maintain. With just a few simple clicks or a straightforward inhale, you can start vaping instantly! The compact and lightweight design of pod kits is another significant advantage, making them perfectly pocket-sized and transportable. Whether you're commuting, travelling, or just out and about, Pod Kits like the Uwell Caliburn are your ideal vaping buddy.
What makes the Uwell Caliburn a Great Pod Kit?
Given all of the qualities of vape kits outlined above, the success of the Uwell Caliburn series can best be ascribed to how well these fabulous kits just nail everything that makes a pod kit such an easy to use and satisfying vape device, for beginners and experienced vapers alike.
There have been many fine pod kits to grace Vapestore’s vast collection over the last few years, from manufacturers big and small. However, as our experience and that of our customers has shown, with the Caliburn, Uwell refined the compact pod vape kit experience to a level that has rarely been matched since.

What E-liquids work best with Uwell Caliburn Vape Kits?
As with all vape kits, the right e-liquid to use depends on the resistance of your coil (measured in Ohms.) Most of Uwell’s Caliburn series of pod kits employ refillable pods with fixed coils in a variety of resistances, although some pods offer the ability to switch coils. Because they are considered low-powered vape devices, with battery capacities between 350mAh and 1000mAh and high-resistance coils between 0.8-1.2ohms, Uwell Caliburns are best when used with high-PG, 50/50 and nicotine salts e-liquids.
