Hayati Pro Max 4000 Pod Kit

The original Pro Max 4000 was the device that made Hayati a household name in UK convenience, and it was a sealed 10ml disposable, exactly the format the single-use vape ban removed from sale on 1 June 2025. It has no legal version of itself. Yet its search demand never died, so a ring of wholesale sites kept their listings up, kept taking orders, and kept shipping whatever old or cloned stock they could find. Some of those pages run to two thousand words of feature copy wrapped around an illegal product. One flatly advertises zero maintenance because you throw it away.

A retailer who buys from those pages owns the problem at inspection time, not the wholesaler. This is the context the new line launches into, and it is why we lead with the compliance story rather than the flavour list. The kit on this page recharges, takes replacement 2ml pods, and exists precisely so the name can be sold legally again. If you are offered a "Pro Max 4000" anywhere at a price that seems too good, it is the dead format wearing the famous name. The table below keeps the family straight.

A trade box holds ten kits of one flavour, and at the box price on this page a unit lands at six pounds including VAT, five pounds ex. Hayati’s own campaign material tickets the new generation at £11.99 on the shelf; sell there and the POR is a clean 50 per cent, while a sharper £9.99 ticket still returns roughly 40. Both beat what legacy big-puff stock has drifted to, and the famous name does the footfall work that usually costs you margin to buy.

The kit is half the story. Each one you sell creates a pod customer, and the replacement pod packs are the higher-frequency, lower-ticket line that turns a device sale into a fortnightly visit. Pod allocations are being confirmed behind the kits; ask us to reserve pod stock against your kit order so the repeat trade stays at your counter rather than whoever else got pods first. Plan the wider case maths the way bulk buy vapes lays out, and the shelf this kit lives on is mapped under prefilled pod kits.

Hayati flavour chemistry is the brand’s quiet weapon; profiles like Blue Razz Gummy Bear built a following the way Mr Blue did for a rival. The launch menu for the 4000 is confirmed against the first allocation at goods-in, so we list a working range rather than a promise: the signature Pro Max profiles below are the lines the new generation carries and the sensible shape of an opening order. If a specific flavour is critical to your shop, ask us to confirm it against the allocation before you commit the box.

The Pro Max was among the most counterfeited vapes in the country at its peak, and a relaunch under the same name will pull the cloners straight back. Genuine Hayati stock carries batch numbers and scratch-off verification codes, and Vapes Bars, the brand’s UK storefront, runs an official authentication checker where a code can be verified in seconds. Build that check into goods-in: one unit per delivery, thirty seconds, done. Blurry lotus logos, missing batch codes and sealed non-rechargeable bodies are the tells, and the last of those also means the product is banned outright.

Buy on VAT invoices from a supplier who names the compliant format in writing. That paper trail is what stands between your counter and a Trading Standards conversation, and it is the entire reason a legitimate wholesale listing for this product should talk about the ban rather than around it.

The kit is legal to sell because it recharges and carries its nicotine in a replaceable 2ml pod at 20mg, inside TPD limits; the sealed 10ml original is banned and any listing describing it is describing unsellable stock. From there the usual discipline applies: age verification on every sale, Challenge 25 in practice, invoices filed where you can find them, and spent devices handled as WEEE waste because of the lithium cell. Facts verified against gov.uk guidance on the single-use vape ban and the Tobacco and Related Products Regulations, August 2026.

One launch-specific point cuts both ways: the relaunch looks almost exactly like the banned bar, which is precisely what makes it sell and precisely what a Trading Standards officer will query at a glance. The differences that settle it are physical: the Type-C port on the base, the pod that clicks out, and the batch codes on the box. Keep the invoice naming the compliant line with the delivery paperwork, and brief staff to demonstrate the port rather than argue. Customer version of the same script: same look, same flavours, now it recharges and takes pods.

Launch products generate launch questions. These three lines head off nearly all of them.
