What Is the IGET Bar Plus?
The IGET Bar Plus is a refillable pod-based vape device that bridges the gap between disposables and full refillable systems. Unlike the single-use IGET Legend or IGET Moon, the Bar Plus uses a rechargeable battery paired with pre-filled, replaceable IGET pods. This means you keep the device and simply swap in a new pod when the old one runs dry.
Since its Australian launch, the IGET Bar Plus has become one of the most popular pod vapes in the country thanks to its low running cost, compact form factor and a flavour library that keeps expanding every quarter. In May 2026, the lineup now includes both the original Bar Plus and the upgraded Bar Plus S3.
How the IGET Bar Plus Pod System Works
The pod system is dead simple. A magnetised connection clicks each IGET pod into the top of the battery unit. There are no buttons — draw activation fires the coil the moment you inhale. Each pod is pre-filled with 2 mL of e-liquid and delivers roughly 600 puffs before it needs replacing.
What Comes in the Box
A starter kit includes the battery unit, one IGET pod of your chosen flavour and a USB-C charging cable. Replacement pods are sold individually or in multi-packs. If you buy a five-pack of IGET Bar Plus pods, the per-pod cost drops significantly — making it one of the cheapest ways to vape in Australia right now.
Battery and Charging
The Bar Plus battery is 600 mAh, which comfortably lasts a full pod before needing a top-up. Charging from flat to full takes about 40 minutes via USB-C. An LED indicator on the base shows battery status: green means above 60 %, blue means 20–60 %, and red means it is time to plug in.
IGET Bar Plus S3 — What Changed?
The IGET Bar Plus S3 landed in early 2026 as a refinement rather than a complete redesign. The core pod format stays the same — existing IGET pods are fully compatible with the S3 battery — but IGET made several quality-of-life improvements.
Key S3 Differences
- Larger battery: Bumped from 600 mAh to 800 mAh, so you can vape through a pod and a half before recharging.
- Airflow adjustment: A small dial on the side lets you toggle between a tighter mouth-to-lung draw and a slightly looser restricted direct-lung draw.
- Improved coil mesh: S3-compatible pods use a finer mesh coil that produces denser flavour, particularly on fruit and dessert profiles.
- Updated finish: Matte-touch exterior replaces the glossy plastic of the original, making it less prone to fingerprints and scratches.
If you already own the original Bar Plus, upgrading to the S3 battery is straightforward — your existing pod stash works perfectly. You can browse the full IGET Bar Plus S3 range here.

Cost Comparison — IGET Bar Plus vs Disposables
One of the biggest selling points of the IGET Bar Plus pod system is long-term savings. Below is a side-by-side cost comparison based on average Australian retail pricing in May 2026.
| Device | Upfront Cost | Cost per Refill/Unit | Puffs per Unit | Cost per 1,000 Puffs |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| IGET Bar Plus (starter kit) | $24.95 | $9.95 per pod | 600 | $16.58 |
| IGET Legend (disposable) | — | $29.95 each | 4,000 | $7.49 |
| IGET Moon (disposable) | — | $34.95 each | 5,000 | $6.99 |
| IGET Bar Plus 5-pack pods | $24.95 (once) | $39.95 per 5 pods | 3,000 | $13.32 |
When you buy pods in bulk, the Bar Plus system comes in at roughly $13 per 1,000 puffs — more expensive than the high-puff disposables like the Moon, but significantly cheaper than buying individual disposable bars. The real value appears when you factor in device longevity: a single Bar Plus battery can last six months or more, whereas every disposable is landfill after one use.
For vapers who prefer the environmental angle, the refillable pod approach also generates far less electronic waste. The TGA's vaping guidance page notes growing concern about disposable vape waste, and a pod system is a practical middle ground between disposables and full open-system refillables.
Who Should Buy the IGET Bar Plus?
The Bar Plus is ideal for vapers who want the simplicity of a disposable without the ongoing replacement cost and waste. If you go through more than two disposable vapes a week, switching to the pod system will save you money within the first fortnight. The S3 upgrade makes it an even stronger choice for flavour chasers thanks to the improved mesh coil and adjustable airflow.
If you prefer maximum puff counts with zero maintenance, the IGET Moon remains a solid disposable option. For a full comparison across every IGET model, see our IGET model comparison guide.
Frequently Asked Questions
Are IGET Bar Plus pods compatible with the S3?
Yes. All existing IGET Bar Plus pods fit both the original battery and the newer S3 battery. The magnetic connector is identical, so you can upgrade the device without replacing your pod stash.
How many puffs does each IGET pod last?
Each pre-filled IGET pod delivers approximately 600 puffs. Actual count varies depending on draw length and frequency, but most users report getting close to the rated figure.
Can I refill IGET Bar Plus pods with my own e-liquid?
IGET pods are designed as pre-filled, sealed units. While some users attempt to prise them open and refill, doing so voids any warranty and risks leaking. If you want a true refillable experience, consider a device like the Uwell Caliburn G3.
How long does the IGET Bar Plus battery last?
The original Bar Plus battery (600 mAh) lasts roughly one full pod. The S3 battery (800 mAh) stretches to about one and a half pods per charge. A full recharge takes around 40 minutes via USB-C.
Where can I buy genuine IGET Bar Plus pods in Australia?
You can purchase authentic IGET Bar Plus pods and starter kits from Local Cig Supplies. Always check for the holographic authenticity sticker on the box to avoid counterfeits.
