About the SKE Crystal CL6000
The SKE Crystal CL6000 is a rechargeable prefilled pod kit designed as the direct replacement for the Crystal Bar disposable. Where the original Crystal Bar was a sealed 600-puff single-use device, the CL6000 works differently: the 800mAh battery is rechargeable via USB-C and the pod and e-liquid container are replaced as a pair when they run out. You keep the device and swap pods. The flavours, nicotine strength and MTL draw stay the same as the Crystal Bar, but nothing gets thrown away until the pod itself is spent.
Each pod set contains 12ml of e-liquid split between a 2ml pod and a 10ml refill container. The two pieces connect together and slot into the kit as a single unit. The 10ml container feeds e-liquid into the 2ml pod automatically as you vape. SKE calls this the auto-refill system. It is how the CL6000 reaches approximately 6,000 puffs while remaining TPD compliant, since the 2ml pod is technically the regulated container and the 10ml bottle sits separately as a refill supply.
Every CL6000 pod has a dual mesh coil built in. You do not swap coils. When the pod set is empty, you click in a replacement from the SKE Crystal CL6000 refill pod range. The LED display on the front of the device shows your battery percentage so you know when to charge before you run out.

What It Tastes Like |
| Cherry Ice |
Sweet, ripe cherry with a pronounced cooling finish. One of the most popular flavours in the Crystal Bar range. Clean and not overly sweet. |

Spearmint and menthol with a subtle lime note. Crisp and refreshing. Not sweet. Good all-day option for menthol fans. |
Berry
| Flavour |
What It Tastes Like |
| Berry Medley |
A blend of mixed berries, rounded and sweet. Not a single dominant note. Approachable, crowd-pleasing and good for all-day use. |
| Blueberry Raspberries |
Sweet blueberry upfront with a tart raspberry edge. Well balanced between sweet and sharp. |
| Blueberry Sour Raspberry |
Similar base to Blueberry Raspberries but with a sharper, more sour raspberry character. More intense and less sweet overall. |
| Strawberry Raspberry Cherry |
A red fruit trio. Strawberry dominates, with raspberry and cherry adding depth and tartness. Rich and fruity. |
Fruit
| Flavour |
What It Tastes Like |
| Double Apple |
A blend of green and red apple. Crisp, slightly sweet and slightly tart. Clean fruit flavour without heavy sweetness. |
| Dragon Fruit Peach Melon |
Tropical and sweet. Dragon fruit gives an exotic floral note, peach adds warmth and melon keeps it light. A layered tropical blend. |
| Peach Mango Watermelon |
Three summer fruits in one. Peach leads, mango adds tropical sweetness and watermelon brings a light, watery finish. Refreshing and smooth. |
Tropical
| Flavour |
What It Tastes Like |
| Triple Mango |
Intensified mango. Full, ripe and sweet with no cooling finish. A straightforward mango hit for tropical fruit fans. |
| Grape Splash |
Juicy, sweet grape with a slight fizz character. Closer to grape juice than wine. Vibrant and fruity. |
Citrus and Soda
| Flavour |
What It Tastes Like |
| Lemon Lime |
A sharp citrus blend. Lemon leads with lime sharpening the finish. Zesty and clean, without sweetness. Good palette cleanser. |
| Pink Lemonade |
Sweet, tangy lemonade with a berry undertone. Closer to a cordial than a sharp citrus. Well liked by vapers who find pure lemon too sharp. |
| Blue Razz Lemonade |
Blue raspberry and lemonade. Sweet and slightly tart, with a candy quality. One of the most popular SKE Crystal flavours in the range. |
| Sour Pineapple |
Ripe pineapple with a sharp sour edge. Tropical and punchy. Not sweet. Good for vapers who prefer tart fruit flavours over candy profiles. |
| Fizzy Cherry |
Cherry with a fizzy, slightly sour character. Reminiscent of cherry cola or sour cherry sweets. Sweet but with an edge. |
Candy and Sweet
| Flavour |
What It Tastes Like |
| Fruit Gum |
Mixed fruit in a soft, sweet chewing gum style. More candy than fresh fruit. Nostalgic and sweet. |
CL6000 vs Crystal Bar: What Changed After the Disposable Ban
The UK ban on single-use disposable vapes came into force on 1 June 2025. The SKE Crystal Bar, which was one of the bestselling disposables in the UK, was banned under that legislation.
The Crystal CL6000 is SKE's direct replacement. The flavours are identical. The 20mg nicotine salt e-liquid is the same recipe. The MTL draw and inhale-activated firing are the same. The difference is the pod system. Instead of a sealed all-in-one device that goes in the bin when empty, you now have a rechargeable battery unit and a replaceable pod set. The battery stays. The pod gets swapped when it runs out.
In practical terms, one CL6000 pod set lasts approximately as long as ten Crystal Bar disposables. If you were buying Crystal Bars regularly, the CL6000 reduces how often you need to buy and means you spend less per puff over time.
Who Is the SKE Crystal CL6000 For?
The CL6000 is well suited to former Crystal Bar users who want to continue with the same flavours and experience on a legal, rechargeable device. If you regularly used Crystal Bars before the June 2025 ban, this is the intended replacement.
It also suits vapers who are switching from cigarettes and want something simple with no settings or setup. The fixed MTL draw and inhale-activated firing mean there is no learning curve. You open the box, connect the pod set, and vape.
Heavier vapers will find the 6,000 puff pod set useful because it reduces the frequency of pod changes. Light to moderate vapers may find the SKE Bar 600 more practical if they prefer a smaller, more compact device and do not mind swapping pods more frequently.
The CL6000 is not designed for sub-ohm vaping or vapers who want to adjust wattage or airflow. It is a fixed MTL system built for simplicity.

SKE Crystal CL6000 FAQ
Is the SKE Crystal CL6000 a disposable vape?
No. The SKE Crystal CL6000 is a rechargeable prefilled pod kit. You keep the battery unit and replace the pod and refill container when they run out. The original SKE Crystal Bar disposable was banned in the UK on 1 June 2025 under legislation on single-use vapes. The CL6000 is the legal, rechargeable replacement.
How many puffs does a CL6000 pod set give you?
Each SKE Crystal CL6000 pod set gives you approximately 6,000 puffs from 12ml of e-liquid. The actual number depends on how long your draws are and how frequently you vape. Shorter draws will stretch each pod set further. Most vapers get several days to over a week from a single pod set.
How does the two-piece pod system work?
The CL6000 pod set consists of a 2ml prefilled pod (which contains the coil and mouthpiece) and a separate 10ml refill container. The two pieces connect together and slot into the device as one unit. As you vape, the 10ml container automatically feeds e-liquid into the 2ml pod. When both are empty, you pull the assembly out and click in a fresh pod set. There is nothing to open, fill or prime yourself.
Can I refill SKE Crystal CL6000 pods with my own e-liquid?
No. CL6000 pods are sealed and prefilled. When the e-liquid runs out you replace the entire pod and container assembly with a new one from the SKE Crystal CL6000 refill range. If you want to use your own e-liquid, you would need a refillable pod kit rather than a prefilled system.
Does the CL6000 come with a USB-C charging cable?
No. The SKE Crystal CL6000 kit does not include a USB-C cable. You will need to supply your own. Most phone charger cables with a USB-C connector will work. The battery takes approximately 60 to 90 minutes to charge from flat.
What is the difference between the CL6000 and the SKE Bar 600?
The CL6000 delivers up to 6,000 puffs from a 12ml pod set with an 800mAh battery and an LED display. The Bar 600 delivers up to 600 puffs from a 2ml pod with a 500mAh battery and no display. Both use the same Crystal Bar flavour range at 20mg nic salt. The CL6000 is better value over time because each pod set lasts far longer. The Bar 600 is more compact and closer in feel to the original Crystal Bar disposable.
