Top 7 Al Fakher Vape Kits & Replacement Pods in the UK (2026)
Choosing between Al Fakher vape kits comes down to one question most roundups skip: can you keep it running once the first pod is finished?
Al Fakher's Crown Bar range spans several capacities, and they are not all the same kind of device underneath. Some take replacement pods that exist as their own product. One does not. That difference matters more than the puff number on the box, because it decides whether your next purchase is a small pod or another whole device.
Below: four kits and three pod ranges, seven in total, with a plain answer on each.
Which Al Fakher vape kits you can actually keep running
| Kit | Puffs | Matching replacement pod? |
|---|---|---|
| 50K Hypermax Prime | 50,000 | Yes — pod includes a fresh coil |
| 30K Hypermax | 30,000 | Yes — pod only, coil stays in the device |
| Pro Max 12K | 12,000 | Yes — pod only |
| Crown Bar 15000 Hypermax | 15,000 | No dedicated replacement pod found on the UK market |
All four are draw-activated — you inhale to vape, there is no fire button on any of them.
1. Al Fakher 30K Hypermax
The complete system
The 30K is the kit most people picture when they think of Al Fakher's rechargeable range, with its faux leather-wrapped grip. It is also the one where both halves of the system — device and pods — exist as their own listings.
| Puff count | Up to 30,000 |
| Battery | 850mAh, USB-C |
| E-liquid | 2ml pod + 2 × 10ml refill containers (22ml total) |
| Coil | 0.6Ω mesh, built into the device body |
| Airflow | Adjustable, DTL to MTL |
| Supplied as | Box of 5 |
The coil lives in the device rather than the pod, so a pod swap gives you fresh liquid on the same coil. That is a different arrangement from the 50K below, and it is why the 30K feels more solid in hand — there is less moving inside the pod each time you change one.
Keeping it running: Crown Bar 30K Hypermax refill pods are listed as their own line. Full detail in pod range 6 below.
Take a proper look at the leather-clad 30K Hypermax kit before deciding, since the finish is a large part of why people choose it over the others.
2. Al Fakher 50K Hypermax Prime
The highest capacity, and a fresh coil every swap
Built for heavy vapers who would rather not think about pods for weeks at a time.
| Puff count | Up to 50,000 |
| Battery | 1000mAh, USB-C |
| E-liquid | 2ml pod + 2 × 10ml refill containers (22ml total) |
| Coil | 0.6Ω mesh, inside the Snap Dual pod module |
| Airflow | Adjustable, tight MTL to looser RDL |
| Supplied as | Box of 5 |
What separates this from the 30K is not the puff number — it is where the coil sits. On the 50K the mesh coil is inside the replaceable pod module, so every swap gives you a completely fresh coil as well as fresh liquid. That is a genuine design change rather than a bigger battery.
Keeping it running: 50K Hypermax Prime refill pods are a separate listing. Full detail in pod range 5 below.
Flavours and current options are on the 50K Hypermax Prime kit listing itself. If you are weighing this against other very high-capacity devices, how Hayati approaches the same category covers a comparable duo-tank system.
3. Al Fakher Pro Max 12K
The pocketable one
The smallest and lightest kit in the range, for anyone who wants something that disappears into a pocket rather than sitting in it.
| Puff count | Up to 12,000 |
| Battery | 900mAh, USB-C |
| E-liquid | 2ml pod + 8ml refill container (10ml total per pod) |
| Coil | 1.0Ω mesh |
| Airflow | Fixed MTL draw |
| Supplied as | Box of 5 |
Note the 8ml refill container rather than the 10ml used on the 30K and 50K. That is a design choice, not a downgrade — it keeps the pod slim enough for the compact body while sitting comfortably inside the UK's 10ml refill-container limit.
Keeping it running: Pro Max 12K replacement pods have their own listing. Full detail in pod range 7 below.
The Pro Max 12K kit is worth a look if 30,000 or 50,000 puffs is simply more capacity than you need. If you want that size in other brands, 10,000-puff pod kits covers the equivalents.
4. Al Fakher Crown Bar 15000 Hypermax
The one that works differently
The Crown Bar 15000 sits in the same range and looks similar at a glance, with an 850mAh rechargeable battery, a 0.6Ω dual mesh coil, adjustable airflow and the same 2ml pod plus 10ml container arrangement on paper.
The difference is what happens when it runs out.
Keeping it running: we have not found a dedicated replacement pod for the 15000 stocked anywhere on the UK market — not here, and not at the retailers we checked. The pods that fit the 50K, 30K and Pro Max 12K do not cross over to it. In practice that means the whole device gets replaced rather than a pod, which is a different proposition from the other three.
If you like the size and draw style but want something you can keep feeding, the 30K Hypermax is the closest match with pods that are listed as their own product.
5. Al Fakher 50K Hypermax Prime Refill Pods
A new coil with every swap
Sold in boxes of five. Each pack pairs a 2ml Snap Dual pod module with its 10ml refill containers.
Because the mesh coil sits inside the pod module rather than the device, every swap resets the coil as well as the liquid. That is the practical advantage of this range over the other two — flavour performance starts fresh each time rather than gradually declining across the life of the device.
Fits the 50K Hypermax Prime only. It will not seat in the 30K or the Pro Max 12K.
Where to find it: the 50K Prime refill pod listing carries the current flavour options and availability.
6. Al Fakher 30K Hypermax Refill Pods
The consistently stocked one
Sold in boxes of five. Each pod is 2ml with a 10ml refill container.
The coil stays in the device on this model, so a swap changes liquid only. That makes each pod simpler to produce than a coil-in-pod design, and it is the reason this is the pod range that stays on the shelf most reliably across the Al Fakher line-up.
Fits the 30K Hypermax only. Pods from the 50K or Pro Max 12K will not work in it.
Where to find it: the 30K Hypermax refill pod listing. Paired with the 30K kit, this is the one complete Al Fakher system on this page.
7. Al Fakher Pro Max 12K Replacement Pods
The compact option
Sold in boxes of five. Each pod is 2ml with an 8ml refill container — the smaller container matching the slimmer device body rather than being a reduced specification.
Like the 30K, the coil stays in the device, so a swap is liquid only. Because the pod holds less, expect to change it more often than on the higher-capacity kits.
Fits the Pro Max 12K only.
Where to find it: the Pro Max 12K pod listing shows the flavours currently available for this device.
All three are official Al Fakher replacement pods built for one device each. Nothing here is a generic third-party fit, and none of them are interchangeable even where the packaging looks similar.
Compatibility at a glance
Check your pod against your device before ordering. None of these cross over.
| Device | Pod type | What a swap replaces |
|---|---|---|
| 50K Hypermax Prime | Snap Dual pod module | Pod, refill containers and coil |
| 30K Hypermax | 2ml pod + 2 × 10ml refill | Pod and refill containers only |
| Pro Max 12K | 2ml pod + 8ml refill | Pod and refill container only |
| Crown Bar 15000 | No stocked replacement found | The whole device |
If pod compatibility is the part you find confusing generally, how pod matching works across a range explains the same principle on another brand, and the wider prefilled and reusable kit range shows what else uses the format.
Which to choose
For the most complete system: the 30K Hypermax. Device and pods both listed, mid-range capacity, and the finish most people want.
For the longest run and a fresh coil each time: the 50K Hypermax Prime.
For pocketability: the Pro Max 12K, accepting the fixed MTL draw and smaller capacity.
If you were considering the Crown Bar 15000: check first whether you are comfortable replacing the whole device each time, because that is what it currently asks.
Frequently asked questions
Can I use 30K pods in a Crown Bar 15000?
No. The pods are built per device across this range and do not cross over. If you want pod-swap flexibility, the 30K Hypermax is the kit to choose rather than the 15000.
How long does a replacement pod last?
It depends entirely on how heavily you vape, so no fixed figure would be honest. The higher-capacity kits carry more liquid per pod, so they go longer between swaps — but the ratio between puff ratings does not transfer to real use.
Are these pods within UK limits?
UK rules cap a nicotine pod at 2ml and a nicotine refill container at 10ml. Each pod covered here is specified at 2ml with refill containers of 10ml or under. [documented — gov.uk, Tobacco and Related Products Regulations 2016] Whether a specific product is notified for UK sale is a matter for the MHRA notified products list rather than a retailer's description.
What is the difference between the 50K and 30K pods?
Where the coil sits. The 50K pod module contains its own coil, so every swap is a fresh coil. The 30K keeps its coil in the device, so a swap changes liquid only. Both are 2ml with 10ml refill containers.
How many pods come in a pack?
Box of five across the 50K, 30K and Pro Max 12K lines.
Kits and pods are supplied in boxes of 5, with same-day dispatch and free UK delivery over £200. New customers can use code Welcome5 for 5% off. Device specifications are the manufacturer's published figures; flavour and pod availability changes, so check the live listing before ordering. Regulatory points are drawn from gov.uk guidance and are general information rather than legal advice. For adult vapers 18+.
