UK Vaping Products Duty (VPD)
From 1st October 2026, HM Revenue & Customs is introducing the nationwide Vaping Products Duty (VPD).
The new framework applies a flat excise duty of £2.20 per 10ml of vaping liquid, whether it contains nicotine or not. Because standard 20% VAT applies on top of the duty, the retail cost impact adds £2.64 per 10ml to duty-paid liquids.
Existing eligible stock can continue to be sold during the Government's transition period (sell-through of existing pre-October stock is permitted until 1 April).
We are working closely with our suppliers to ensure the smoothest possible transition. While pre-duty stock remains available, our prices will remain at current rates.

Core Technology: AAAA Performance
The heart of the SMOK Arco Digi lies in its proprietary "AAAA Performance" with the ARCO pod series, which elevates your vaping experience across four crucial aspects: increased Airflow, Anti-Leaking, Adaptability, and prestigious Aroma. SMOK has meticulously designed the ARCO pods to maximise airflow, allowing for a smoother, more satisfying draw that can be finely tuned to your preference. The advanced anti-leakage design means you can carry your device with confidence, eliminating mess and waste. Its adaptability is showcased through a wide range of compatible mesh coils, ensuring you can tailor your vape to your exact liking, whether you prefer a tight Mouth-to-Lung (MTL) or a more open Restricted Direct-to-Lung (RDL) inhale. Finally, the prestigious aroma delivery ensures that every puff is bursting with the true, layered flavour of your e-liquid, consistently providing a rich taste profile.
Features & Power
Powering your sessions is a robust 1300mAh internal rechargeable battery, designed to comfortably last a full day of moderate vaping and supporting quick recharges via its USB-C port at a maximum 1.4A. The Arco Digi offers a versatile 5W to 30W output range, allowing you to precisely tailor your vapour production and flavour intensity. You have three distinct power modes at your fingertips: ECO Mode, optimised for higher-nicotine or salt-based e-liquids and a tighter MTL hit; NOM Mode, providing a balanced setting perfect for everyday 50/50 blends; and MAX Mode, which delivers a stronger power output for a more pronounced RDL pull. The device intelligently features smart wattage detection, automatically suggesting the optimal wattage based on the installed ARCO pod's resistance, taking the guesswork out of setting up.
Keeping you informed is a clear 0.84-inch LCD screen, which displays essential vaping data such as your current wattage, battery level, and selected mode. The kit is fully compatible with SMOK's ARCO pod series, including 0.4Ω, 0.6Ω, 0.8Ω, and 1.1Ω mesh coil options, ensuring there's a coil for every preference. The refillable pods boast a 2ml capacity, making them TPD/TRPR compliant for the UK market, and feature a convenient topside filling system for mess-free refills. An adjustable airflow slider further enhances customisation, allowing you to fine-tune your draw from a tight MTL to a looser RDL. The Arco Digi offers both draw-activated and button-activated firing, providing flexible operation to suit your vaping style.
The SMOK Arco Digi Pod Kit is perfect for vapers who demand precise control, exceptional flavour, and all-day reliability in a stylish, user-friendly package.
