IGET B5000: The Rechargeable That Changed the IGET Range

The IGET B5000 was the model that proved a rechargeable IGET could out-sell the disposables, and years later it is still one of the most requested devices in our store. Rated at approximately 5,000 puffs with a USB rechargeable battery, the IGET B5000 pairs a compact boxy body with what we would argue is the most adventurous flavour list the brand has ever shipped: Cherry Cola, Sakura Grape, Green Plum Ice and Mountain Spring Mint all live here and nowhere else in the classic range. IGET Vapes Australia Store stocks 14 flavours plus a four piece bundle, everything genuine, everything for adults 18 and over only.

Why the IGET B5000 is different

Most devices in the classic IGET lineup are sealed: the battery is sized to just outlast the e-liquid, and when either runs dry the unit is done. The IGET B5000 breaks that pattern. Its battery recharges over USB, which means the cell can be smaller and lighter while the full 12 or so millilitres of e-liquid gets used to the last drop. Nothing is wasted, the device sits comfortably in a closed fist, and you are never caught out by a battery dying with liquid still inside.

The trade-off is a tiny bit of routine: plug it in for a top up every day or two, the same way you would a phone or earbuds. If even that is too much admin, the sealed IGET Goat 5000 delivers a similar puff count with zero upkeep. But for most adult vapers the recharge habit forms in a week and the payoff, consistent vapour strength from first puff to last, is obvious every single day.

Specs at a glance

Spec	IGET B5000
Puff rating	Approximately 5,000 puffs
Format	Prefilled, rechargeable, non refillable
Charging	USB, cable widely available
Flavours stocked here	14
Single unit price	$49.90 to $56.90
Bundle	4 pieces, $189.60
Draw	Auto draw, no buttons

Note the word non refillable: the B5000 comes prefilled and is finished when the e-liquid runs out. Recharging extends the battery, not the liquid. If a fully refillable style pod platform is what you are after, the IGET Bar Plus S3 kit with its swappable prefilled pods is the closest thing in the brand's ecosystem.

The flavour list, group by group

The signature exotics

Four flavours give the IGET B5000 its personality. Cherry Cola ($56.90) is a spot-on fizzy cola with a dark cherry top note, easily the most nostalgic thing the brand makes. Sakura Grape ($56.90) layers a soft floral cherry blossom accent over sweet grape, delicate in a way vape flavours rarely are. Green Plum Ice ($56.90) is tart, green and frosty, an East Asian classic that has no equivalent anywhere else in our shop. Mountain Spring Mint ($56.90) rounds out the set: clean spring water freshness with a soft mint finish rather than a toothpaste blast.

Citrus and orchard

Orange Grapefruit Lemon ($56.90) is the sharpest profile on the device, a triple citrus wake-up call. Double Apple Ice ($56.90) delivers the familiar two apple shisha profile with a cold exhale, and Blueberry Raspberry Lemon ($56.90) balances dark berries against lemon zest so neither dominates.

Tropical and stone fruit

Passion Fruit Mango Ice ($56.90) is the holiday flavour, tangy passion fruit smoothing into ripe mango. Lychee Blackcurrant ($56.90) pairs perfumed lychee with tart blackcurrant, another combination you will struggle to find on competing devices. Strawberry Pitaya ($56.90) blends strawberry with mild dragon fruit for a soft pink smoothie profile, and Strawberry Kiwi Ice ($56.90) sharpens the same base with kiwi tang and frost.

The dependables

Watermelon Ice ($49.90) is the accessible entry point, priced with the base IGET B5000 Rechargeable Vape ($49.90) as the cheapest doors into the line. Blueberry Razz ($56.90) covers the classic blue razz lolly profile the whole disposable market was built on.

Best picks by taste

Coming from cola bottles and lolly bags: Cherry Cola, no contest. Wanting something elegant you have not tasted before: Sakura Grape or Lychee Blackcurrant. Prefer sour and tart: Green Plum Ice or Orange Grapefruit Lemon. All day easy vaping: Watermelon Ice or Mountain Spring Mint, both restrained enough to never wear out their welcome. Dessert leaning without going full custard: Strawberry Pitaya. If you genuinely cannot decide, the IGET B5000 Bundle gives you four devices for $189.60, effectively $47.40 each, which is cheaper per unit than the single Watermelon Ice.

IGET B5000 vs IGET Hot 5500 vs IGET Bar Plus S3

Three devices in our range orbit the same mid size space, so here is the honest breakdown against the IGET Hot 5500 and the IGET Bar Plus S3.

	IGET B5000	IGET Hot 5500	IGET Bar Plus S3
Puff rating	5,000	5,500	Pod based system
Rechargeable	Yes	No	Yes, USB-C
Replaceable pods	No	No	Yes, 26 pod flavours
Flavour style	Exotic and unusual	Ice heavy classics	Broadest range, 27 flavours
Price	$49.90 to $56.90	$42.90 to $46.90	See category

Choose the Hot 5500 if you want ice forward classics at the lowest price in this size class and do not care about charging. Choose the Bar Plus S3 if you want a long term setup where only the pod gets replaced. Choose the IGET B5000 when the flavour list itself is the attraction, because Cherry Cola, Sakura Grape and Green Plum Ice exist nowhere else, and when you want a device that stays punchy to the very end rather than fading as a sealed battery winds down. Heavy users who churn through 5,000 puffs too quickly should skip all three and read our IGET One 12000 page instead.

Charging and looking after it

A flat IGET B5000 charges back to full in well under an hour. Plug it into a standard USB power source, wait for the indicator to settle, and vape as normal; there is no need to run the battery to empty before charging, and topping up little and often is the kinder pattern for any lithium cell. Avoid charging on bedding or in a parked car in summer heat, and if a device is ever damaged, stop using it. Lithium batteries should never go in household bins; Australian battery recycling drop-offs are listed by the national scheme at bcycle.com.au, and spent devices can be dropped there once fully depleted.

Why this model mattered

A little context explains this line's loyal following. When it launched, the Australian market was saturated with sealed disposables that all suffered the same quiet flaw: as the battery drained across the device's life, vapour output softened, so the last thousand puffs never tasted like the first thousand. The recharge port fixed that in the simplest possible way, and buyers noticed. The model became the template for the brand's whole B series, and the reason the larger Flare B10000 exists at all is that this device proved Australians would happily plug a vape in if it meant consistent flavour to the very end.

The flavour list is the other half of the legacy. Because the platform sold to experienced vapers rather than first timers, the brand used it to take risks: floral notes, cola, plum, grapefruit, profiles that a beginner focused line would never gamble on. Years later that gamble is the moat. People do not stay on the IGET B5000 because of the hardware, which the newer devices have matched; they stay because Cherry Cola and Sakura Grape never migrated anywhere else.

Getting the most from each device

Three habits stretch every unit to its full rating. First, charge little and often rather than running the battery flat; lithium cells prefer top ups, and a device that never fully dies also never interrupts your evening. Second, pace your draws: three to four seconds is the sweet spot on this coil, and dragging longer just vaporises liquid faster without producing proportionally more flavour. Third, store it upright when idle, especially overnight, which keeps the wick evenly saturated and prevents the faint dry hits some users notice after a device has spent a weekend lying on its side in a bag.

Temperature discipline matters here even more than with sealed disposables because you are carrying the same unit for up to two weeks. Repeated exposure to a hot car thins the liquid, darkens the flavour and ages the cell; a pocket, a desk drawer or a bedside table is where this device wants to live. If you rotate two flavours at once, a habit the exotic menu practically encourages, cap the idle device and stand it upright, and both will hold their character to the end. And when a unit finally runs dry, retire it to a battery recycling bin rather than the kitchen tidy, exactly as you would any electronics containing lithium.

Prices, bundle and ordering

Singles run $49.90 for Watermelon Ice and the base unit, and $56.90 for the other twelve flavours. The four piece IGET B5000 Bundle at $189.60 is the value play for anyone settled on the line. Every order ships tracked from within Australia, with timeframes on our shipping page, and every customer passes an 18+ check because we sell to adults only, in line with the national rules on vaping goods published at tga.gov.au. The B5000 is presented, like everything here, as a smoke free alternative for adult vapers, with no health claims attached. To see how it fits the wider family, the IGET vapes Australia guide walks the entire catalogue in one page.

A closing word on choosing your first flavour from this line: the exotics are the attraction, but they are also commitments of a fortnight, so a sensible first order pairs one adventure with one banker. Cherry Cola alongside Watermelon Ice is the combination we suggest most, one device for curiosity and one you already know you will finish, and at $106.80 for the pair it still lands under two weeks of small disposable spending for a typical daily user.

IGET B5000 FAQ

Is the IGET B5000 refillable?

No. It arrives prefilled and cannot be topped up with e-liquid. The rechargeable battery exists so that every millilitre of the factory fill actually gets vaped, not so the device can be reused indefinitely. When the liquid is gone, the device is finished.

How long does one IGET B5000 last?

The rating is approximately 5,000 puffs. A moderate adult vaper typically gets one to two weeks from a unit, charging it a handful of times along the way. Chain vaping and long draws will shorten that window.

What charger does the IGET B5000 use?

A standard USB cable into any regular USB power source. Charge on a hard surface, away from heat, and unplug once full. No cable is included in the retail box, but the required cable is the most common type in any Australian household.

Which IGET B5000 flavour is most popular?

Cherry Cola and Sakura Grape trade the top spot among our customers, with Green Plum Ice the sleeper hit among people who prefer tart profiles. Watermelon Ice sells steadily as the safe first purchase at the lower $49.90 price.

Why does vapour feel weaker on some disposables but not this one?

Sealed disposables can soften as their battery voltage drops late in life. Because the IGET B5000 recharges, its output stays consistent from the first puff until the e-liquid itself runs out, which is the main practical reason people upgrade to it.

Is there a bigger rechargeable IGET than the B5000?

Yes. The IGET Flare B10000 doubles the puff rating to around 10,000 while keeping the recharge design, and the IGET Bar Pro 10000 competes in the same class. Both have their own category pages in our store.
