Vape Chargers and Batteries by Brand: Which Cable, How Long, and What "Pod Without Battery" Means

The One-Sentence Answer for Every Brand

People land on charger pages for one of three reasons: they lost the cable, the device stopped charging, or they bought a pod and did not realize it needs a base. The first problem is the easiest to solve because there is nothing brand-specific to buy. RAZ, Foger (often searched as Fogger), Geek Bar, Off Stamp, RELX, Lost Mary, Flum, Nexa, Lost Angel, Dojo and Olit all use a plain USB-C port. RAZ's own charging guide puts it plainly: there is no model-specific RAZ disposable vape charger, and the cable in your drawer is the replacement. Foger's guide says the same about its devices, Off Stamp's charger page says any phone-grade cable works, and Dojo notes that none of its devices use proprietary cables.

The second and third problems are where brands differ, and where the rest of this page earns its keep. Charging current caps, charge times, blink codes and the pod-without-battery question all vary by brand, and a few brands publish figures that quietly disagree with their own product pages. We flag those disagreements in the text rather than picking one and pretending it is settled. The full by-brand table is near the bottom; the sections in between explain what the table cannot fit in a cell.

RAZ Vape Charger: USB-C on Every Model, Magnetic Only on the VUE 50K

"Raz vape charger" and "raz charger" are the two most searched charger phrases across our whole station group, and the answer is short. Every current RAZ device charges through a USB-C port on the bottom edge: the TN9000, the DC25000 and LTX 25K, the RYL Classic 35K and the RX 50K all plug straight in. RAZ specifies a 5V/1A source, meaning a basic wall brick, a laptop port, a car USB socket or a power bank. RAZ also warns against fast-charge adapters above 5V/2A; its guide says the chipset blocks them but they can trigger a fault state, so the cheapest charger in the house is the right one. Orientation does not matter because USB-C is reversible.

RAZ's "raz vape charger type" question therefore has a one-word answer, USB-C, and the "raz vape charger base" and "raz vape charger magnetic" questions point at one specific product: the RAZ VUE 50K kit. The VUE is the only RAZ device with a magnetic connection, and the magnet sits between the pod and the base, not between the base and the wall. The base is a 900 mAh USB-C rechargeable battery that RAZ describes as power-bank style because you keep it and recharge it instead of throwing it away. It charges from empty in about 60 minutes on a 5V/1A adapter, the base caps input at 1A so a faster brick does not speed it up, and you can vape while it charges. RAZ's own instructions page lists the VUE as 900 mAh in the base plus 420 mAh in the pod for 1,320 mAh across the system, which matches the spec sheet on our kit page.

RAZ's published charge times for the sealed models are a little scattered across its own pages, so treat them as ranges. RAZ does not publish charge times on its product pages; its manual gives rough estimates of 30 to 50 minutes on a 5V/1A block depending on the model. The consistent thread is that bigger batteries take longer and everything finishes well within an hour and a half. Battery sizes from our spec sheets: TN9000 650 mAh, DC25000 800 mAh, RYL Classic 35K 820 mAh, RX 50K 800 mAh, VUE 50K 900 mAh base plus a 420 mAh cell inside each pod. The full RAZ lineup and every flavor are on the RAZ brand page and in the RAZ vape flavors guide.

How to Charge a RAZ Vape Pod Without a Battery (the RAZ Vue Charger Base Explained)

"How to charge raz vape pod without battery" and "how to charge raz vue without battery" are searched hundreds of times a month, and RAZ's charging guide answers both with the same sentence: you cannot, because you do not charge the pod, you charge the base. The RAZ VUE 50K replacement pod has no USB-C port and nothing to plug into. It has a magnetic contact pad on its underside that snaps onto the top of the base, and power flows from the base's battery to the pod's coil through that pad. RAZ's guide calls the pod a passive cartridge; our spec sheet and RAZ's instructions page both list a 420 mAh figure for the pod. Either way the practical rule is identical: the pod takes power on contact, not over time, so there is no such thing as a RAZ Vue pod charger sold as a separate product.

The sequence RAZ describes is simple. Snap the pod onto the base until the magnets seat. Run a USB-C cable from any 5V/1A source into the port on the base. Let the base fill for about 60 minutes; the HD screen shows the percentage as it climbs. The pod is live the moment the base has charge. Leaving the pod off the base while the base charges is fine and changes nothing. If you have a VUE pod and no base at all, the base is the battery and the only route is the VUE 50K kit, which ships the base, one starter pod and, in the current shipment cycle, a USB-C cable. If you have the base but lost the cable, any USB-C cord works.

Two related searches deserve their own answer. "How to charge a raz vape" for the sealed models is the same three steps minus the pod: find the port on the bottom, plug in, watch for the red or orange charging light or the on-screen percentage. "Why is my raz vape not working after charging" usually comes down to one of three things in RAZ's troubleshooting guide: a chipset stuck in charging mode, which a soft reset clears; a damaged cable, which is the second most common cause and shows up as a device that never lights while plugged in; or, on the VUE only, pocket lint on the magnetic contact pad. RAZ's fix for the pad is a dry wipe of both the pod underside and the top of the base, no liquid, then a firm re-snap. A pod that still will not fire on a fully charged base is an empty or dead pod, not a charging fault.

Foger (Fogger) Charger, Magnetic Charger Replacement and the Fogger Battery

Foger is spelled Fogger by a large share of the people searching for it, so "fogger charger", "fogger battery" and "foger vape magnetic charger replacement" are all the same questions in different clothes. Foger's charging guide is blunt on the first one: there is no Foger charger to buy. Both the Foger Switch Pro 30K kit and the Foger Bit 35K charge through a plain USB-C port at 5V/1A, and any USB-C cable substitutes exactly for the one in the box. Foger's guide says to avoid 65W-plus fast chargers because the Switch Pro dock refuses high-voltage input as a safety measure, and that a basic wall plug, a laptop port or a power bank all work better than an expensive fast brick.

The magnetic charger confusion has a specific cause, and Foger explains it. The Switch Pro pod snaps onto the dock with magnetic gold contact pins. People see the gold pins, assume they are a charging connector, and go looking for a magnetic charging cable to match. There is not one. Charging happens through the USB-C port on the bottom of the dock, and Foger says it has never made a magnetic charger, a charging cradle or a wireless pad. So "foger vape magnetic charger replacement" resolves to a USB-C cable, and if the dock itself has stopped holding a charge, that is a battery question rather than a cable question.

Which brings us to "fogger battery" and "fogger battery replacement". The Switch Pro 30K system has two batteries. The dock holds an 850 mAh rechargeable cell with an OLED screen that shows charge percentage and the Boost or Norm mode. Each pre-filled pod carries its own 200 mAh internal cell, sealed inside the pod, which ships and is discarded with the pod. Together that is 1,050 mAh of system capacity. Foger's battery guide says a full dock charge supports roughly 1,500 to 2,000 puffs, the dock takes about 50 minutes to fill from empty, and the pod cell is not separately replaceable. For owners whose dock has aged out, Foger sells the dock on its own as an upgraded 1,200 mAh charging device in five colors shipped at random; that standalone dock is not stocked on this site, so on TVF the replacement route is the kit, or a Switch Pro replacement pod if the dock is fine and only the flavor is spent. The Bit 35K is a sealed device with an integrated 850 mAh cell, charges in roughly 35 to 50 minutes, and has no dock, no pod and no replaceable battery at all. Every Foger flavor is listed on the Foger brand page and ranked in the Foger vape flavors guide.

How Long Does a Fogger Last Without the Battery?

"How long does a fogger last without the battery", "how long does a foger vape last without the battery" and "how long does a foger pod last without the battery" are three spellings of the same question, and Foger's battery guide splits the answer by device because only one Foger has a separable battery. On the Switch Pro 30K, every pod carries its own 200 mAh cell, so a pod pulled off the dock keeps firing on its own for short sessions. Foger describes this as a stopgap: 200 mAh is a fraction of the dock's 850 mAh, enough to keep vaping while the dock charges, not a day of standalone runtime. Snap the pod back on and the dock takes over. Foger does not publish a puff count for the pod running alone, and neither do we.

On the Bit 35K the question does not apply. The battery is integrated and sealed, so there is no "without the battery" state. If the cell reads 0 percent the device will not fire until you plug in USB-C; the e-liquid keeps, and the 35,000-puff rating is unaffected by how many recharge cycles the cell has been through. If the question was really "how long does a fogger battery last" between charges, Foger's own numbers are approximately 1,200 to 1,800 puffs per charge in Eco mode and 800 to 1,200 in Boost on the Bit 35K, and 1,500 to 2,000 puffs per dock charge on the Switch Pro. Foger also notes that lithium cells hold charge less efficiently below 50°F, so a dock that lived in a cold car overnight should warm up before charging, and that after roughly 300 charge cycles capacity drops to about 80 percent of original, which is the point at which a replacement dock starts to make sense.

Geek Bar Mate Charger, Clio Super Pulse, and "Geek Bar Not Hitting but Charged"

Geek Bar sells sealed disposables (Pulse 15K, Pulse X 25K, Meloso, Skyview, CLR 50K and others) and two pod kits, the Geek Bar Mate 60K kit and the Geek Bar Clio Platinum 50K kit. All of them charge over USB-C. "How to charge geek bar mate pod" has the same answer as RAZ and Foger: you charge the battery device, not the pod. The Mate 60K kit pairs a 900 mAh rechargeable battery with a pod that has its own 200 mAh built-in cell, 1,100 mAh total. Plug any USB-C cable into the port on the bottom of the battery device; the Dynamic Galaxy UI display shows charging progress and Geek Bar says it reaches 80 percent in about 20 minutes. The Mate pod locks magnetically onto the battery and pulls power through the connection, so a Mate pod on its own only has whatever is left in its 200 mAh cell. There is no "geek bar mate charger" beyond a USB-C cable.

"How to get super pulse on geek bar battery" is a question with two different answers depending on which Geek Bar you hold. On the Pulse 15K and Pulse X 25K, Geek Bar's settings guide says no such mode exists; anything a listing or video calls Super Pulse on those devices is standard Pulse mode. On the Clio Platinum 50K it is real. The Clio Platinum is a modular kit with a 900 mAh charging device and a pod that carries its own 500 mAh cell (1,400 mAh across the system on our spec sheet), and it is the first Geek Bar with three power modes. You click the mode button on the charging device to cycle between Regular, Pulse and Super Pulse, and the dual screen updates to show the current mode and battery level. Geek Bar rates the Clio Platinum at 50,000 puffs in Regular and 20,000 in Super Pulse. The charging device is backward compatible with all Clio series pods because the magnetic connection and pin layout are identical.

"Geek bar not hitting but charged" is, by Geek Bar's own count, its most searched troubleshooting phrase, and the usual diagnosis is slow-drain charge rather than coil failure: the indicator shows full but the cell has not held the charge through to the coil. Geek Bar's three fixes are to plug in again for an uninterrupted 30 to 45 minutes on a wall adapter rather than a laptop USB port, to try a different USB-C cable, and to hard-reset via the mode toggle held for 3 seconds. On the Mate and Clio, also confirm the pod is fully seated and the magnetic contacts are clean. If a brand-new device will not fire, Geek Bar lists shipping discharge (charge for 30 minutes), a packaging seal blocking the mouthpiece airway, or a manufacturing fault covered by warranty. "How long does a geek bar take to charge" depends on the model: Pulse 15K 650 mAh in 30 to 40 minutes; Pulse X 25K 820 mAh in about 30 minutes, with 80 percent at around 20; CLR 50K 900 mAh in 45 to 60 minutes; Mate 60K 80 percent in about 20 minutes. Geek Bar advises staying under 2A and says overheating during charge is normal up to about 113°F. The rest of the lineup is on the Geek Bar brand page.

Off Stamp Charger and the Off Stamp Crystal Cube Battery

Off Stamp built its whole line around a magnetic pod and a reusable battery base, so the "off stamp crystal cube battery" and "off stamp battery price" searches are really about the kit. Off Stamp's battery page says the battery is not sold as a standalone part; it is the rechargeable device half of every kit, so the battery price is the kit price. On this site that means the Off Stamp X Cube 25K kit, which pairs a 1,100 mAh base with a 25,000-puff pod, or the Crystal 35K kit, whose base is listed at 1,000 mAh on our spec sheet. Off Stamp says the Classic and Crystal bases are the same design, and the edition name describes the pod family, not a charger. There is no separate Ice Cube, Sweet Cube or Crystal Cube charger; if a cable charges one Off Stamp base, it charges the other.

Charging follows the same pattern as every pod kit on this page. Plug the included USB-C cable, about 8 inches with USB-A on the power end, into the battery base and connect the other end to any 1A-plus USB port. The LED stays lit while charging and goes solid, then off, when full. A full charge from empty takes about 45 minutes according to Off Stamp's charger, battery and instructions pages (our Crystal 35K kit listing says roughly 20 minutes, which we take to be a fast-charge-to-usable figure rather than a full fill). You can charge with the pod attached or removed because the pod has no port; all power lives in the base. Off Stamp's controller caps charging current at roughly 1A regardless of the adapter, so PD or QC fast chargers work but give no benefit, and Off Stamp warns off unbranded adapters above 2A because of voltage spikes. A real-world charge on the 25K base gives roughly 600 to 800 puffs before the low-battery blink, and Off Stamp expects about 30 to 40 full cycles before the cell noticeably degrades.

Off Stamp's older SW9000 and SW16000 pods use an 800 mAh magnetic dock, and the SW16000 pod itself carries a 210 mAh built-in cell; the newer X Cube pods are the ones with all the power in the base. If a base will not wake after 15 minutes on a cable that charges everything else in the house, Off Stamp's advice is to replace the base rather than the cable, which again means a new kit. Flavors for every Off Stamp pod family are on the Off Stamp brand page.

RELX, Lost Mary, Dojo, Lost Angel and the Other Pod Kits

RELX is the one brand here whose refillable side predates the big-puff era, and it is also the only brand where a standalone battery is stocked on this site. The RELX Creator 35K battery is an 800 mAh USB-C rechargeable hub with a pixel emoji screen, adjustable airflow and a magnetic pod mount, sold without a pod. The RELX Infinity 2 Plus and the RELX Ultra use the same magnetic pod connector as the Pro Pods 2 and charge over Type-C; the Ultra carries a 380 mAh cell and RELX quotes about 45 minutes to full, while the Infinity 2 Plus battery capacity is not published on our spec sheet. Older RELX Essential and Classic devices use a different connector and do not take these pods. RELX's disposables are sealed and USB-C: the Nova 30K at 1,200 mAh, the Crystal 15K at 380 mAh, and the Pocket 30K, whose capacity RELX has not published. All of them sit on the RELX brand page.

Lost Mary's pod kit is the Nera Fullview 70K kit: an 800 mAh Type-C battery housing plus two pre-filled 35,000-puff pods that drop into a magnetic dock with spring-loaded contacts. Lost Mary's product page says the cell tops up in about 25 minutes on a 5V/2A cable, its instructions page says about 45 minutes, so budget somewhere between. The pod listing is explicit that it contains no device, no battery and no charger, only the two pods. The 800 mAh cell is built in and not user-replaceable; after 300-plus full cycles Lost Mary says the kit needs replacing but unused pods are unaffected. Lost Mary's sealed devices are all USB-C: MT15000 Turbo 600 mAh, MO20000 Pro 800 mAh, Quasar 25K 850 mAh, MT35000 Turbo 1,000 mAh, Ultrasonic 35K 800 mAh.

Dojo's iMate X 20K kit is the most thoroughly documented charger on any brand site we run. The hub holds a 900 mAh screen battery with a recessed USB-C port on the bottom edge, opposite the magnetic pod dock, and a full charge from a hard 0 percent takes about 1.5 hours at 5V/1A. The pod has no USB-C port of its own and a 400 mAh internal cell; it charges only through the gold-plated contact pins on the hub when the hub is plugged in and the pod is seated. Dojo says that if you pop the pod off and run it standalone you cannot recharge it independently; you dock it on a charging hub for about 30 minutes to top it up. Dojo's sealed devices take longer than most: the Sphere S 40K has a single 1,100 mAh cell and charges in about 2 hours, and the PUREX 60K has a dual-cell 1,500 mAh pack and takes about 2.5 hours, with pass-through so you can vape while it charges. Dojo recommends a short USB-C to USB-A cable of 24 AWG or thicker, 1 to 2 feet, because 6-foot cables introduce voltage drop that slows the charge and confuses the percentage gauge.

Lost Angel's Mate 50K kit is a rechargeable battery body plus your first pre-filled pod, a USB-C cable and an authenticity card. Our spec sheet lists the kit at 1,200 mAh (Lost Angel's own page says 1,000 mAh), and both sources agree on a 30 to 45 minute full charge from a 5V phone charger. The pod sits on a magnetic-and-click connector and releases with a soft tug; the pod-only listing includes no battery. Lost Angel advises against 18W-plus fast bricks, which work but shorten cell life over months, and against charging overnight every night. The sealed Sphere 35K uses a 1,000 mAh cell with the same 30 to 45 minute charge. Every pod system across all these brands is grouped on our refillable and pod-swap vapes collection.

Sealed Rechargeable Vapes by Brand: Battery mAh and Charge Times

"Rechargeable vapes" as a search means something different from what it did a few years ago. Nearly every disposable sold today is rechargeable in the sense that it has a USB-C port and a battery sized to outlast its e-liquid; what it is not is refillable. Flum, Nexa and Olit make only sealed rechargeables, and the sealed models from RAZ, Geek Bar, Lost Mary, RELX, Dojo and Lost Angel work the same way. You charge them, sometimes many times, and when the e-liquid is gone the device is finished regardless of how healthy the battery is. Dojo puts it well: a sealed device only carries enough juice for roughly 80 to 120 full cycles, so you never reach battery degradation before the puff count runs out.

Flum's charging guide is the outlier on current: Flum devices cap charging internally at 5V/2A rather than 1A, so a standard 5W phone charger works and a 100W brick will not charge any faster. Flum lists the Mello 20K and UT Bar Pro 25K at 45 to 60 minutes from empty and the Float Mello Pro 50K and UT Bar Pro 50K at 75 to 90 minutes. Our spec sheet lists the Mello 20K at 650 mAh, the UT Bar Pro 25K and Pro 50K at 760 mAh, and the Float Mello Pro 50K at 1,000 mAh; Flum's own blog quotes 1,100 mAh for the 50K devices, so the two sources disagree there. Flum's newer Float Ryzo 60K kit is a pod-swap system whose base recharges over USB-C, but Flum has not published its battery capacity or charge time. Flum's advice for a screen that stays red after 30 minutes plugged in is to try a different cable, which it says is the most common "won't charge" cause.

Nexa devices charge through a USB-C port on the bottom and Nexa's FAQ quotes 60 to 90 minutes to full depending on model. Spec-sheet capacities: Ultra 50K II 900 mAh, Ultra 50K Invisa Cloud 800 mAh, Pro 30K 900 mAh, PIX 35K 800 mAh, Flex 35K 1,000 mAh. Olit's hookah-style disposables carry the largest cells on this page: the Mega 200K has a 1,700 mAh battery and takes about 2.5 hours from empty, the Pro 60K has 1,500 mAh, the 40K has 1,300 mAh, and Olit says the Pro 60K and 40K take 60 to 90 minutes on any standard 5W USB-C cable. Olit's warranty covers USB-C charge-port failures, which is worth knowing because a leaking port is one of the few charging faults that is a manufacturing defect rather than a cable problem. Kado Bar's Snap 25K, a pod kit, pairs a 950 mAh detachable cell with a 300 mAh built-in backup so it keeps firing during a pod swap; JNR's P4 Stellarc 100K kit runs 1,200 mAh and its P5 GlassRock pod lists 1,900 mAh. VOZOL's Rave Swap 70K has a 1,200 mAh base but VOZOL has not published its charging port or charge time, and Pyne Pod's Click 80K kit has no published battery figure at all.

Charger Replacement: What You Actually Need to Buy (and What You Don't)

"Raz vape pod charger replacement", "raz vue 50k charger replacement", "foger vape magnetic charger replacement" and "fogger battery replacement" are four different shopping intents, and only one of them involves a purchase from a vape store. If the thing you lost is the cable, buy a USB-C cable from anywhere: RAZ, Foger and Off Stamp all say a phone-aisle cable is the replacement and none of them sells a branded one. A charge-only cable without data lines is fine for Off Stamp and, by extension, every device here, because the device only consumes power. Keep the adapter at 5V/1A for RAZ and Foger, 1A-plus for Off Stamp, up to 5V/2A for Flum and Lost Mary, and a plain 5V phone brick for Lost Angel, Dojo and Olit. The one universal warning across every brand guide is to stay away from high-wattage GaN and 65W-plus fast chargers: Foger's dock refuses them, RAZ's chipset faults on them, and Geek Bar, Lost Angel and Off Stamp all say they shorten cell life even when they appear to work.

If the thing that failed is the base or dock of a pod kit, the replacement is a battery, not a charger, and what you can buy depends on the brand. RELX sells the Creator 35K battery on its own and we stock it. Foger sells a standalone Switch Pro dock (the upgraded 1,200 mAh version) on its own site but we do not carry it, so on TVF the route is the Switch Pro kit. RAZ, Geek Bar, Off Stamp, Lost Mary, Dojo and Lost Angel do not sell their bases separately at all; RAZ says the VUE kit is sold as the base plus one starter pod, Off Stamp says the battery is the device half of every kit, Lost Mary says the Nera cell is built in and not user-replaceable. For all six, a dead base means a new kit, and your existing pods carry over. Before you buy anything, run the two checks every brand lists first: try a different USB-C cable on a known-good wall adapter, and leave the device plugged in for 15 to 30 minutes, because a deeply discharged lithium cell can sit silent for a while before its indicator wakes up.

If the thing that ran out is the pod, you need neither a charger nor a battery. The pod listings on this site are labeled to make that clear: the RAZ VUE pod, Foger Switch Pro pod, Geek Bar Mate and Clio pods, Off Stamp pods, Lost Mary Nera pod, Dojo iMate X pod and Lost Angel Mate pod all ship without a base and all require the matching base to vape. Pods are not cross-compatible between brands; each system uses its own magnetic connector and pin layout, and Foger's dock additionally reads an encrypted chip in the pod's contact plate and shows a 188 error when it cannot identify one.

By-Brand Charger and Battery Table

The table below covers the pod kits first, then the sealed rechargeables. Battery figures come from our product spec sheets; where a brand's own page gives a different number, the brand figure is in parentheses. Charge times are the brand's published figures. "Kit" in the last column means the base is only sold as part of the kit on this site.
