IGET BAR PLUS S3 DEVICE ONLY (NO POD)

IGET BAR PLUS S3 Device Only — the rechargeable half of a modular vape

The IGET BAR PLUS S3 Device is the battery body from the BAR PLUS S3 system, sold on its own for vapers who already keep pods at home or who prefer to build a setup piece by piece. It is a 950mAh rechargeable unit with a USB Type-C port, a small screen that shows battery level, and a body wrapped in the ROCK-style graffiti finish that gives the S3 range its look. No pod is included, so the device cannot be vaped straight out of the box — you will need a compatible BAR PLUS S3 pod (or an older BAR PLUS 6,000-puff pod) before the first session.

That modular structure is the whole point. Instead of retiring an entire disposable when the coil dies, you keep the body, swap the pod, and carry on. For anyone who has watched a half-full disposable die on a night out, it is a practical alternative that costs less over time and produces far less waste.

What is in the box

• 1 × IGET BAR PLUS S3 device body (950mAh, USB Type-C)
• 1 × USB Type-C charging cable
• User guide
• Pod not included

Technical specifications

Five finishes, one body

The S3 body is available in five colourways — Mystic Gunmetal, Tidal Gunmetal, Light Purple, Carbon Gray and Rose Pink. Each one uses the same graffiti-inspired wrap, so the difference is tone rather than pattern: the two gunmetal options read as brushed metal, Carbon Gray is the most understated, Light Purple is the softest, and Rose Pink is the warmest of the five. Use the colour selector above to see each finish.

Battery, charging and the status screen

The 950mAh cell is a meaningful step up from the 500mAh batteries common in sealed disposables. In practice that means fewer charging interruptions and more consistent output towards the end of a pod. Charge with the supplied Type-C cable from a standard 5V/1A adapter; the display shows the level so you can top up before the device dies rather than after.

Two habits make the battery last longer. First, avoid fast-charge bricks with high current outputs, which stress small cells. Second, do not leave the device plugged in for hours after it reaches full — unplug when the indicator shows complete.

Pod compatibility: S3 and BAR PLUS

The S3 body accepts two generations of pods:

• IGET BAR PLUS S3 pods — up to 10,000 puffs, 1.0Ω mesh coil, the current generation.
• IGET BAR PLUS pods — up to 6,000 puffs, the earlier generation, still supported.

Both click in the same way, so you can move between capacity levels without changing devices.

S3 device versus a sealed disposable

How the mesh coil changes the draw

The current S3 pods use a 1.0Ω mesh coil. A mesh sheet has far more surface area than a wire coil, so it heats evenly and quickly. The practical result is a smooth, consistent draw from the first puff to the last, with fewer of the dry patches that show up when a small coil struggles to keep up. Because the body delivers stable power rather than a fading battery curve, the flavour stays more consistent as the pod empties.

Care and safety

• Keep the device upright between sessions so the pod wicks properly.
• Avoid leaving it in a hot car or direct sun — heat degrades both the battery and the pod.
• Wipe the pod contacts with a dry tissue if the draw becomes weak.
• Charge on a hard surface, not on bedding, and never overnight while unattended.
• Keep out of reach of children and pets; nicotine products are for adults 21+ only.

Living with a modular vape

A modular system changes the rhythm of how you vape. With a sealed disposable, the device is the pod: the moment the coil weakens you are shopping for a whole new unit, and the flavour you were halfway through is gone. With the S3, the body stays on your desk and only the pod changes. That means you can keep a mint pod for mornings, a dessert pod for evenings, and a fruit pod for the weekend, all running through the same 950mAh battery.

It also changes the maths. A sealed 10,000-puff disposable costs roughly what a device plus a pod costs here, but the second purchase is pod-only. Over a few months the difference compounds, and you stop paying for batteries you already own.

There is a practical side too: a spent pod carries the coil, the e-liquid and the mouthpiece, which is exactly the part that wears out. The body carries the battery and electronics, which last far longer. Splitting them is the reason the system produces less waste per puff.

Charging routine that protects the cell

Small lithium cells age fastest when they are run flat and charged hot. Three habits keep the 950mAh cell healthy:

• Top up at around 20–30% rather than waiting for the device to cut out.
• Use a standard 5V/1A adapter — high-current fast chargers push more current than the cell is designed for.
• Unplug once the screen shows full, and avoid charging overnight on a bed or sofa.

A full charge from empty takes roughly 60–90 minutes. If the body feels warm during charging, that is normal; if it feels hot, stop charging and let it cool before trying again.

Five finishes, in detail

• Mystic Gunmetal — the darker of the two metal tones, with a deep grey base that makes the graffiti wrap read as texture rather than colour.
• Tidal Gunmetal — a cooler, lighter metal finish with a subtle blue cast, closest to a brushed steel look.
• Light Purple — soft lavender body with the same wrap, the most muted option in the range.
• Carbon Gray — the understated choice: near-black grey that hides fingerprints and matches almost any pod colour.
• Rose Pink — the warmest finish, a dusty rose that reads pink without being loud.

Troubleshooting the common issues

• No vapour after fitting a pod — check the pod is pushed fully down until it clicks, and that the body has charge.
• Weak or tight draw — wipe the pod contacts and the inside of the body slot with a dry tissue; condensation is the usual culprit.
• Burnt taste — the pod is running dry at the coil. Let it sit upright for a few minutes, then take short draws.
• Device will not charge — try a different cable and a 5V/1A adapter before assuming the cell has failed.
• Screen shows power but nothing happens — remove and refit the pod; if it persists, try a known-good pod to isolate whether the issue is the pod or the body.

Authenticity, warranty and support

Every device we ship is sourced through manufacturer supply channels and checked before dispatch. If a body arrives dead on arrival, contact us with the order number and we will arrange a replacement under our returns policy. Consumable pods are not covered once opened, which is standard for vape hardware.

Choosing between the S3 pod and the BAR PLUS pod

The body accepts both generations, so the choice is really about capacity versus cost. The S3 pod runs to roughly 10,000 puffs and uses the newer 1.0Ω mesh coil; the older BAR PLUS pod tops out around 6,000 puffs. If you vape heavily, the S3 pod means fewer changes. If you like rotating flavours often, the smaller BAR PLUS pod lets you switch more cheaply and finish each pod before the flavour fades.

Both click into the same slot, and the device manages power the same way for each, so there is no settings change to worry about.

What to check before you buy

• Confirm you have at least one compatible pod — the body will not work without it.
• Decide on capacity: 10,000-puff S3 pods or 6,000-puff BAR PLUS pods.
• Pick a finish; all five use the same internals, so the choice is cosmetic.
• Check you have a 5V/1A USB adapter and a Type-C cable — a cable is included, an adapter usually is not.
• Keep the box and serial details until you have confirmed the device powers on.

Buying as a gift or a spare

The device also works as a spare body: if you already run an S3, a second body means one can charge while the other is in use, and a flat battery never ends a session. As a gift it is only appropriate for an adult who already uses the S3 system, since a device without a pod cannot be tried immediately.

Who the S3 device suits

This body makes sense if you already have S3 or BAR PLUS pods, if you like the idea of paying for pods rather than whole devices, or if you simply want a battery you can see the level of. It does not suit anyone buying their first vape with no pod, because the device is inert without one.

What the status screen actually tells you

The screen is a simple battery gauge, but it removes a surprising amount of guesswork. Instead of carrying a spare disposable because you are not sure how much is left, you can see the level before you leave the house. It also helps you judge whether a weak draw is a flat battery or a worn pod — if the screen shows plenty of charge, the pod is the more likely culprit.

Treat the gauge as a rough guide rather than a precise percentage. Small cells drop faster in the last portion of their range, so top up when it shows low rather than waiting for the cut-out.

Frequently asked questions

Does the device come with a pod?

No. This listing is the device body only. Pair it with an IGET BAR PLUS S3 pod or an IGET BAR PLUS pod.

Can I use the device on its own?

No. Without a pod there is nothing to heat the e-liquid, so the device will not produce vapour.

Which pods fit?

IGET BAR PLUS S3 pods (up to 10,000 puffs) and IGET BAR PLUS pods (up to 6,000 puffs).

How long does the battery take to charge?

Roughly 60–90 minutes with a standard 5V/1A adapter and the supplied Type-C cable.

Is it heavy in a pocket?

It weighs 100.6 g, which is light enough for a jacket pocket and stable enough to stand upright on a desk.

Can I switch flavours?

Yes. Swap the pod; the body keeps its charge and settings.

Does it come with a warranty?

Dead-on-arrival faults are covered; see our returns page for the current policy.

Is this an authentic IGET product?

Yes — sourced through manufacturer supply channels and dispatched from our local warehouse.
