JUUL2 is the second-generation version of the original JUUL closed pod system, redesigned from the ground up for UK vapers. It keeps everything that made the original popular: the pocketable form, the pull-to-vape simplicity, the satisfying 18mg hit. It also adds a larger 328mAh battery, 70% more e-liquid per pod, and a built-in anti-counterfeit system that flashes white when a genuine JUUL2 pod clicks in. No buttons, no refilling, no coil swaps.
At VapeCity, the JUUL2 Starter Kit is £9.99 and includes the device, magnetic dock, and two pods: Virginia Tobacco and Crisp Menthol. If you already have a device, replacement JUUL2 pods are available across 13 flavours spanning tobacco, menthol and fruit. The device runs on an exclusive closed system, so it only accepts JUUL2 pods, not original JUUL pods or third-party fills.
JUUL2 sits alongside devices like the Lost Mary BM6000 and Elf Bar 600 as one of the most recognised names in UK vaping. It suits people who want reliability and discretion above all else: one device, one flavour at a time, charge and go.

The JUUL2 is a closed-system pod device made by JUUL Labs and approved for sale in the UK under TPD regulations. It launched as a successor to the original JUUL with a significantly improved battery life, a larger pod capacity, and Bluetooth connectivity via the JUUL App on Android. At 97mm long and weighing just 14g, it fits in a jean coin pocket.
The device has no fire button. You draw on the mouthpiece and it activates automatically. The LED system tells you everything you need to know without opening an app: tap the device twice to see the battery level (four lights, each representing 25%), a white flash when a pod is inserted confirms it is a genuine JUUL2 pod, and a purple glow indicates the pod e-liquid is running low. The built-in speaker also means you can locate a misplaced device through the JUUL Android app.
Pods hold 1.2ml of e-liquid at 18mg nicotine strength, which is equivalent to around 200 puffs per pod. Because the system is closed, you cannot refill pods or use other brands of liquid. The trade-off is that there is almost nothing to go wrong: no leaky tanks, no burnt coils, no priming waits.

All JUUL2 pods contain 1.2ml of e-liquid at 18mg nicotine strength and are sold in packs of two. The full UK range covers tobacco blends, menthol variants and fruit profiles.
Virginia Tobacco
18mg | Tobacco
A clean, dry American tobacco blend with a warm, natural finish. The default flavour in the Starter Kit and one of the best-selling pods in the range for former smokers.
Autumn Tobacco
18mg | Tobacco
A slightly richer, more rounded tobacco profile with subtle earthy undertones. Works well alongside Virginia Tobacco as an everyday rotation for tobacco vapers.
Crisp Menthol
18mg | Menthol
The clean, sharp menthol that ships with the Starter Kit alongside Virginia Tobacco. Cool on the draw with a fresh, icy finish that does not add sweetness.
Polar Menthol
18mg | Menthol
A stronger, more intense menthol than Crisp Menthol. Good for vapers who came from menthol cigarettes and want a full-cold hit on every draw.
Ruby Menthol
18mg | Berry/Menthol
Mixed berry flavours layered over a menthol base. The fruit adds body and sweetness while the menthol delivers the familiar cool exit. A good bridge between menthol and fruit.
Summer Menthol
18mg | Tropical/Menthol
Tropical fruit notes cooled with a menthol finish. Lighter than Polar Menthol with a more complex, summer-forward flavour that suits warm weather vaping.
Arctic Breeze
18mg | Peppermint/Cream
A cool peppermint profile with a faint creamy edge. One of the newer additions to the JUUL2 UK range, suited to vapers who want menthol with slightly more depth.
Tropical Medley
18mg | Tropical Fruit
A tropical fruit blend with no menthol. Pineapple, mango and passionfruit notes come through in a smooth, sweet vape. One of the more fruit-forward pods in the line-up.
Apple
18mg | Fruit
Crisp green apple with a clean, refreshing flavour. Not overly sweet, which makes it one of the more sessionable fruit options in the JUUL2 range.
Mango
18mg | Fruit
Ripe mango with a tropical sweetness. One of the most popular fruit pods in the range for vapers switching from mango-flavoured disposables to a longer-term device.
Peach
18mg | Fruit
A juicy peach flavour with natural sweetness and a clean finish. Smooth from the first draw to the last puff in the pod.
Lychee
18mg | Fruit
Delicate lychee flavour with a light floral note underneath. A less common profile in the UK pod market, making it a stand-out option for vapers who want something different.
Watermelon
18mg | Fruit
Sweet, refreshing watermelon with a clean vape. A familiar fruit profile that suits vapers coming from watermelon disposables and looking for a more sustainable closed-pod format.
Every JUUL2 product is TPD-compliant and sold to adults aged 18 and over only.

The Starter Kit is the most cost-effective entry point. If you already own a JUUL2 device, pods are sold separately across all 13 flavours.
JUUL2 takes under two minutes to set up from the pack.
Charge before first use
Place the device in the magnetic dock and connect to any USB-C power source. A full charge takes around one hour. Watch for the LED to stop pulsing and hold steady before removing.
Click in a pod
Hold the device and press your chosen JUUL2 pod into the top until you feel and hear it click. The LED will flash white once to confirm the pod is genuine. If the LED does not flash white, remove and reinsert or check the pod packaging.
Draw to activate
No buttons. Put the mouthpiece to your lips and inhale slowly. JUUL2 is mouth-to-lung only, which mimics the draw of a cigarette. Inhale for one to two seconds, pause, then exhale. Do not take long, hard draws like a shisha pipe.
Monitor pod and battery levels
Tap the device twice to see the battery LED: four lights is full, one light is low. A purple glow around the pod indicates the e-liquid is nearly spent. Pods last around 200 puffs each, roughly equivalent to one pack of cigarettes.

Disposable vapes are convenient but generate plastic waste with every device. JUUL2 reuses the same device and replaces only the pod, which cuts down on waste considerably. A JUUL2 pod replaces roughly one disposable in volume terms, and the rechargeable battery means the device itself lasts months rather than days.
Cost-wise, the running cost of JUUL2 depends on how many pods you go through per week. At around £6.99 for a two-pack of pods (roughly 400 puffs total), it is broadly comparable to disposables per puff. The starter kit cost is recovered quickly, and unlike some refillable systems, there are no coil or tank replacements to budget for.
JUUL2 does not offer the flavour range of open-system devices or the cloud production of sub-ohm kits. It is specifically designed for one thing: a reliable, fuss-free nicotine hit that feels as close to a cigarette draw as a vape can get. For ex-smokers who want simplicity, that focus is a feature rather than a limitation.
One of the distinguishing features of JUUL2 is the pod authentication system. When a genuine JUUL2 pod is inserted, the device LED flashes white. This matters because JUUL Labs has been vocal about counterfeit and refilled pods circulating in the UK market. Third-party pods that mimic the shape of JUUL2 pods can damage the device and bypass TPD-compliant nicotine strength limits. The white-flash verification is a quick visual check that you have a genuine product.
The JUUL Android app adds Bluetooth functionality for device location, usage tracking, and a parental lock feature. The device has a built-in speaker so you can ping it from the app if it slips down the sofa. The app is currently Android-only; iOS users retain access to all device features except app connectivity.
JUUL Labs is one of a small number of vape manufacturers that has invested in verified pod authentication at the device level. Combined with the closed-system design, this makes JUUL2 one of the harder pod systems to tamper with or substitute cheaply, which gives greater consistency in flavour and nicotine delivery from pod to pod.
UK regulations and JUUL2
JUUL2 pods are registered and compliant under the UK Tobacco and Related Products Regulations (TRPR), which mirror the EU TPD. Each 1.2ml pod is within the 2ml maximum tank capacity. All pods are sold at 18mg, which is under the 20mg nicotine concentration cap. JUUL2 is sold to adults aged 18 and over in the UK only. MHRA guidance on TPD compliance can be found via the official government site.

JUUL2 suits three types of vapers. First, smokers making the switch who want a device that behaves like a cigarette: a pull-to-activate draw, a satisfying 18mg nicotine hit, and nothing to configure. Second, people who tried open-system kits, found them too fiddly, and want something with zero maintenance. Third, vapers who have been using disposables and want to reduce their plastic waste without sacrificing the simplicity of a single-use draw.
It is not the device for cloud-chasers, for vapers who want to mix their own nicotine strengths, or for people who use sub-ohm kits at 50W or above. The closed system is a deliberate design choice, not a shortcoming: JUUL Labs has built JUUL2 to be as close to a maintenance-free nicotine device as the technology allows.
