Hayati Vape FAQ

Hayati devices are manufactured by PAX, which designs and produces the hardware behind the Hayati name. Manufacturing transparency matters in a category where unbranded factories supply half the market. Hayati Pro publishes the maker rather than hiding it, and the sourcing route sits on the why UK vapers trust Hayati Pro page.

Six brand families sit under the Hayati name, and each targets a different vaper.

• Hayati: the core range, including the Pro Max+ and the Pro Ultra+.
• Moxy: the premium tier, [CONFIRM: launch status].
• Liora: the newest pod system.
• Quokka: refillable pod kits across three tiers.
• Solix: [CONFIRM: positioning].
• Finebar: the slim, pocketable pod kit.

Hayati sells extensively in the United Kingdom, and every Hayati product on the UK market meets UK regulations before it is sold. Hayati Pro is the UK online store, operated by HRM Trade LTD, registered in England and Wales under company number 16434092. Stock is held and shipped inside the UK.

Hayati absorbed a large share of the demand left behind when single-use vapes were banned on 1 June 2025. Big-puff prefilled pod kits like the Pro Max+ and the Pro Ultra+ deliver a similar experience through a legal, rechargeable device. Search demand for Hayati followed that switch.

Choose a Hayati device by how you plan to use it.

The main difference between the Pro Max+ and the Pro Ultra+ is capacity and flavour format. The Pro Max+ runs a single-flavour pod across 62 flavours. The Pro Ultra+ runs a dual-flavour pod with a far higher puff rating across 41 flavours. Both are prefilled, rechargeable pod kits.

No. Hayati manufactures mouth-to-lung and restricted direct-to-lung devices only. Sub-ohm cloud chasing sits outside the range, because Hayati builds for ex-smokers who want a cigarette-like draw. Sub-ohm vapers are better served by 70/30 shortfills and freebase e-liquids in a device built for that style.

No. The original Pro Max, the original Pro Ultra, the X4 and several other early models are no longer sold in the United Kingdom, because single-use devices were banned on 1 June 2025. The Pro Max+ and the Pro Ultra+ are the current, UK-legal successors.

A pod kit is the full device, including the battery and the charging port. A vape pod is the replaceable cartridge that clips into it, holding the e-liquid and the coil. You buy the pod kit once, then buy replacement pods as they run out.

Both formats exist across the range. Prefilled pods arrive sealed with e-liquid already inside, so you clip one in and vape. Refillable pods arrive empty, and you top them up with your own e-liquid. Prefilled suits convenience, refillable suits cost and flavour freedom.

Hayati pods use an integrated mesh coil, built into the pod rather than sold separately. Mesh heats a wider surface area than a wire coil, which improves flavour and lengthens coil life. Replacing the pod replaces the coil, so there is no separate coil to buy.

A prefilled Hayati pod lasts until its e-liquid runs out, which tracks the puff rating rather than a fixed number of days. A refillable pod lasts several refills before the coil degrades, commonly [CONFIRM: X refills or Y days]. A change in taste is the signal to swap it.

No. Prefilled pods are sealed units, and forcing e-liquid into one damages the seal, floods the coil and causes leaking. Refilling a pod that is not designed to be refilled voids any warranty. Buy a refillable Hayati kit if you want to fill your own e-liquid.

Flavour counts differ by device, and the figures below come from the verified Hayati catalogue rather than third-party listings.

Hayati nicotine e-liquids run up to 20mg/ml, the maximum permitted in the United Kingdom. Nicotine-free options exist across parts of the range. Heavy ex-smokers commonly start at 20mg/ml in a nic salt, and lighter smokers start lower. The nicotine safety guide sets out how to match strength to smoking history.

Four formats sit in the Hayati e-liquid range.

• Nic salts: smooth at high strength, built for mouth-to-lung pod kits.
• 50/50 freebase: balanced PG and VG, a firmer throat hit.
• 70/30 freebase: higher VG, more vapour, suited to lower-resistance coils.
• Shortfills: larger nicotine-free bottles, topped up with a nic shot.

Nic salt e-liquid at a 50/50 PG/VG ratio works in every Hayati refillable pod, because the coils are high-resistance and built for mouth-to-lung draws. High-VG shortfills are too thick for these coils and cause dry hits. Liora compatibility with 50/50 freebase is [CONFIRM: nic salt only, or nic salt plus 50/50 freebase].

To charge a Hayati device, connect the supplied USB-C cable to the port on the device and to a low-output plug or a computer port. Unplug it once the light shows a full charge. Never leave a device charging overnight, and never charge a device with a damaged port.

Charge time varies by battery capacity across the Hayati lineup, [CONFIRM: full-charge range]. A larger big-puff kit takes longer than a slim pod kit. Charge from a low-output source rather than a fast charger, because heat shortens the life of a lithium battery.

The indicator light reports two things: charge level and fault state. A steady light during a draw means the device is firing normally. A flashing light commonly signals a low battery, a short circuit or a pod that is not seated correctly. Reseat the pod first, then charge it.

A burnt taste means the coil fired without enough e-liquid around it. Four causes account for nearly every case.

• Vaping a fresh pod before the coil soaked, so prime it for 5 minutes.
• Chain vaping, which drains the wick faster than it refills.
• A pod running near empty.
• A worn coil at the end of the pod's life.

Pods leak when pressure or heat forces e-liquid past the seal. Overfilling a refillable pod, drawing too hard, storing the device on its side, and large temperature swings all cause it. Wipe the contacts dry with a cotton bud, reseat the pod, and draw gently rather than sharply.

No vapour points to three things: a flat battery, a pod seated badly, or a blocked airway. Charge the device first. Remove the pod, wipe the contacts on both the pod and the device, then clip it back until it clicks. Check the airway for e-liquid or lint.

Reseating the pod and charging the device fix most cases. Devices that stay dead after both steps carry a fault, and a fault inside the warranty period is replaced. Never open a device to reach the battery, because puncturing a lithium cell starts a fire.

Yes. Hayati products sold in the United Kingdom meet the Tobacco and Related Products Regulations 2016, and every nicotine product is notified to the MHRA before it reaches the market.

Yes, historically. Single-use Hayati models left the UK market when the ban took effect on 1 June 2025. Every Hayati device sold today is rechargeable and takes a replaceable pod, which places it outside the ban. Hayati Pro stocks no single-use device of any kind.

No vape is safe. The NHS position is that vaping is less harmful than smoking and is not risk-free, and Hayati products carry the same nicotine risk as any other nicotine vape. Nicotine is addictive. People who have never smoked have no reason to start.

Never bin a Hayati device. The lithium battery inside it starts fires when it is crushed in a bin lorry. Return it free of charge through Hayati Pro, or drop it at a council recycling centre or any vape shop take-back point. The Hayati recycling guide covers each route.

Every genuine Hayati device carries a scratch-panel code on its packaging. Scratch the panel, then enter the code on the product verification tool. A valid code confirms the device. An invalid or already-used code exposes a counterfeit, and counterfeit Hayati devices do circulate in the UK.

Counterfeit devices carry no verified nicotine content, no tested battery and no route back to a manufacturer when they fail. A fake pod can exceed the 20mg/ml legal nicotine cap without saying so. Buy from an authorised UK seller, then verify the code yourself rather than taking anyone's word.
