The Uwell Caliburn G5 Lite Koko is the simplest, most affordable refillable pod kit we carry — and that's by design. No screen. No buttons. No settings to configure. Just draw-activated vaping with a 1600mAh battery, stepless airflow control, and Uwell's PRO-FOCS 4.0 flavour technology in a compact, frost-textured body that fits in any pocket.
At $21.50, it's the lowest-cost entry point into refillable vaping — less than a single high-capacity disposable. If you've been using disposables and want to stop throwing away batteries and electronics every week, the Caliburn G5 Lite Koko is the easiest transition you can make. Fill it with your own e-liquid, swap the pod when the coil fades, and the device lasts indefinitely.
Best for: Disposable users switching to refillable, beginners, smokers transitioning to vaping, and experienced vapers who want a dead-simple pocket backup device.

PRO-FOCS 4.0 — Uwell's Flavour Engine
The Caliburn G5 Lite Koko is powered by Uwell's PRO-FOCS 4.0 flavour optimization system, which tunes the interaction between airflow, coil design, and power delivery to produce cleaner, more accurate taste. Uwell claims a 35% increase in pod lifespan compared to previous generations, meaning you get more draws from each pod before needing to swap it. The Caliburn line has been consistently rated among the best pod vapes for flavour, and the G5 Lite Koko continues that reputation.
No Screen, No Buttons — And That's the Point
The Caliburn G5 Lite Koko deliberately strips away the complexity. There's no screen to navigate, no wattage to adjust, no modes to cycle through. The device auto-detects the pod resistance and sets the wattage accordingly. You just inhale.
A KOKO breathing light glows with each draw and displays your battery level through a 4-bar colour indicator. A subtle haptic vibration on each puff gives tactile feedback that the device is firing. That's the entire interface — and for many vapers, it's everything they need.
Dual Airflow Control
Despite its simplicity, the G5 Lite Koko gives you real control over your draw through two methods: a stepless airflow slider on top of the device (open for a loose RDL draw, closed for a tight MTL draw), and reversible pod orientation — flipping the pod 180° changes between two different airflow configurations. This means you can fine-tune your draw tightness without any settings or menus.
GPP Pod Ecosystem — Full Backward Compatibility
The G5 Lite Koko uses Caliburn GPP pods, which are compatible across the entire Caliburn G3, G4, and G5 device family. Four resistance options are available to match your vaping style and preferred e-liquid.
| Pod | Resistance | Best For |
|---|---|---|
| 0.4Ω GPP | 0.4ohm | Warmest draw, densest vapour. Restricted direct-lung at higher wattage. Best with freebase e-liquids. |
| 0.6Ω GPP (included) | 0.6ohm | Versatile middle ground — warm, flavourful, works with both nic salts and freebase. |
| 0.9Ω GPP | 0.9ohm | Smooth MTL draw at lower power. Great for nic salts. |
| 1.2Ω GPP | 1.2ohm | Tightest draw, coolest vapour. Closest to a cigarette feel. Ideal for higher-strength nic salts. |
The kit includes one 0.6Ω pod — if you prefer a tighter MTL draw (most common for disposable switchers), pick up a 0.9Ω or 1.2Ω pod to go with it.

How Does It Compare?
📊 Caliburn G5 Lite Koko vs. XROS 5 Nano vs. Disposables
| Feature | Caliburn G5 Lite Koko | XROS 5 Nano | Typical Disposable |
|---|---|---|---|
| Price | $21.50 | $52.00 | $31–$42 per device |
| Battery | 1600mAh | 1600mAh | 820–1000mAh |
| Max Output | 35W | 30W | Fixed |
| Pod Capacity | 2mL | 2mL | 20–30mL (one-time) |
| Display | LED breathing light | 1.09" Touchscreen | LED bar |
| Activation | Draw only | Draw + Button | Draw or button |
| E-Liquid | Any (refillable) | Any (refillable) | Pre-filled only |
| Pod Options | GPP (4 resistances) | XROS (5+ resistances) | None |
| Ongoing Cost | E-liquid + pods | E-liquid + pods | Full device each time |
| Device Lifespan | Indefinite | Indefinite | Single-use |
| Complexity | Zero — draw and go | Low (touchscreen modes) | Zero |
Bottom line: The Caliburn G5 Lite Koko is the cheapest way to switch from disposables to refillable — at $21.50, it costs less than a single Vice Box 2 or Elfbar FS70K. It matches the XROS 5 Nano's battery (1600mAh) at less than half the price. The trade-off is no screen and fewer features. If you want touchscreen customization and UI themes, go with the XROS 5 Nano. If you want the simplest, most affordable device that just works, the Caliburn is the answer.
Frequently Asked Questions
What pods are compatible with the Caliburn G5 Lite Koko?
The G5 Lite Koko uses Caliburn GPP pods in four resistances: 0.4Ω, 0.6Ω, 0.9Ω, and 1.2Ω. These are the same pods used across the entire Caliburn G3, G4, and G5 device family — so if you already own another Caliburn device, your pods are interchangeable. The kit includes one 0.6Ω pod.
What e-liquid should I use?
With the included 0.6Ω pod, both nicotine salt and freebase e-liquids work well. For a tighter MTL draw (similar to a disposable), use nic salts at 10–20 mg/mL with a 0.9Ω or 1.2Ω pod. For a warmer, more vapour-forward draw, use freebase e-liquid with the 0.4Ω or 0.6Ω pod.
How long does the battery last?
Uwell rates the 1600mAh battery for up to 6 days of light use. Realistically, most moderate vapers will get 1–3 full days between charges. USB-C 2.0A fast charging reaches 90% in about 35 minutes.
Is there a screen or any buttons?
No. The G5 Lite Koko is draw-activated only — no buttons, no screen, no settings. A KOKO breathing light shows battery level (4 colour bars) and pulses when you draw. The device auto-adjusts wattage based on the pod you're using. It's designed to be as simple as a disposable.
How do I adjust the airflow?
Two ways: a stepless airflow slider on top of the device (slide to open or close), and reversible pod orientation — flipping the pod 180° switches between a larger and smaller airflow configuration. Together, these cover everything from a tight cigarette-style draw to a loose restricted direct-lung inhale.
Is the Caliburn G5 Lite Koko good for beginners?
It's arguably the best beginner pod vape you can buy. No settings to learn, no buttons to press — just fill the pod, inhale, and go. The haptic vibration confirms each draw. The 0.9Ω or 1.2Ω pods (sold separately) paired with nicotine salt e-liquid give the closest experience to a disposable. And at $21.50, the upfront cost is lower than most disposables.
What's the difference between the G5 Lite Koko and the G5 Koko?
The G5 Lite Koko is the simplified version — no screen, no button, draw-activated only, LED breathing light. The full G5 Koko adds a display screen, a side button, adjustable wattage (1W increments), and dual output modes (Waves/Storm). Both share the same battery (1600mAh), pod compatibility (GPP), and PRO-FOCS 4.0 technology.
Can I buy the Caliburn G5 Lite Koko online in Canada?
Yes. Vaping The Way ships free across Canada on orders over $75.00, and offers free same-day delivery in Regina, Saskatchewan Monday through Friday.
