Okay, so I’ve been on the hunt for a solid refillable vape for a while now. You know, something that’s reliable, easy to use, and doesn’t break the bank. I’ve gone through a bunch of them, and let me tell you, it’s been a journey.
Started off with some cheap ones I found online. Big mistake. They leaked like crazy, tasted burnt after a few days, and just felt flimsy. I tossed those out pretty quick. Then I tried a couple of mid-range ones, which were a bit better, but still not quite there. They were okay, but either the battery life was crap, or refilling them was a messy pain in the butt.

Finally Found Some Good Ones
But then I stumbled upon a few that actually impressed me. I did a bit more digging, read some reviews, and decided to give them a shot.
- The first one I really liked was the SMOK Novo. What got me was the transparent design of the Novo Clear Meshed Pods. It’s such a simple thing, but being able to see your e-liquid level is a game changer. No more guessing! Plus, it hits really smooth, and the flavor is on point.
- Then there’s the Aspire Gotek X. This one’s got a decent battery, 650mAh, which lasts me a good while. It uses 0.8Ω coils, and I’ve been pairing it with some 9.99 e-liquid I found, and it’s been a solid experience. I saw that it had like 78 reviews online, mostly positive, so I felt pretty good about trying it out.
- I also checked out the Vaporesso XROS Pro. I heard it had a cool top-fill system. Sounded convenient, so I gave it a try. And yeah, it’s pretty slick. Super easy to fill, no mess, and the flavor is great.
- Another one that caught my eye was the Voopoo ARGUS E40. It’s got a side-fill system, which is also really easy to use. Honestly, both the XROS Pro and the ARGUS E40 are top-notch.
After trying all these out, I’ve finally settled on a couple that I’m happy with. I realized that a good refillable vape is way cheaper in the long run. Yeah, you pay a bit more upfront, but you save so much on those pre-filled pods. Plus, you get way more control over your flavors and nicotine levels. For me, the SMOK Novo and the Aspire Gotek X are my go-to’s now. They just work great, they’re easy to deal with, and they don’t cost an arm and a leg. I wanted a familiar experience similar to prefilled vapes, but refillable. And I finally achieved that with these. Honestly, it feels good to finally have a setup that I’m happy with, and the money I save is great!
