Product intro and specs
The SKE Bar 15K is the second version and an upgrade to the original SKE Bar. It’s got the same idea of a disposable/prefilled pod vape blend, but modernized and upsized. This version now contains a total of 12 mL eliquid (2 mL + 10 mL feeder pod) at 2% nicotine salt, a battery status LED indicator, and a simpler design for the minor assembly of the pod section. Honestly, the SKE Bar 15K feels closer to the CL2000 than the original SKE Bar.
Although the SKE Bar 15K is a prefilled pod vape, it lands in that disposable-adjacent space SKE helped create. You get the convenience and lower cost of disposables, with less waste and less money spent on future purchases (since you’ll only have to buy the pods).

Size, look, and feel
The SKE Bar 15K keeps the same overall look as the original SKE Bar but elevates it and upsizes it. Now it’s more mature and more polished in terms of its product design language. The body has a glossy, fluted shaft like the original SKE Bar, but with more of the girth of the CL2000.
What’s new is the small LED screen toward the bottom of the device that shows the battery percentage. Additionally, and even more importantly, the SKE Bar 15K has a fully visible liquid supply inside a crystal tank. No more accidental dry hits because you couldn't tell if the device was empty.
The flavor names are printed on the outside of the crystal tank, making flavor identification much easier than it was with the original SKE Bar.
The SKE Bar 15K is relatively small but perfectly pocketable. It's sturdier in the hand than the original, and with its larger size, it’s going to be more noticeable in the pocket. That said, it’s still plenty pocketable, just not as slender and lightweight as the original. It might be a little more difficult to go hands-free, though it is still possible.
Even the mouthpiece is wider now; still hard, transparent plastic, and a flattened whistle-tip style. With the larger battery and larger mouthpiece, the SKE Bar 15K allows for even bigger and longer hits, though it’s still an MTL device.
Getting started
There are three parts, all bagged individually out of the box: an atomizer/pod (2 mL), a feeder pod (10 mL), and the battery/device. Remove the protective seals and insert the 2 mL pod into its 10 mL pod. You’ll notice two protruding black rods from the atomizer/pod that fit into the feeder pod. Push those two pieces together until you hear a click. Then, drop them into the magnetized battery housing, and you’re ready to go.
The LED will briefly illuminate to show you the charge level. If I were to quibble about it, I’d say the battery percentage readout doesn’t last quite long enough. I sometimes go to check the status after a hit, but by the time I get my eyes to the screen, it’s already turned off. It’s not a big deal; I just have to look quicker.
Once the pod is depleted, all you have to do is buy another pod. You don’t have to buy a whole new device. That’s less physical and monetary waste! Of course, if you want more flavors, you can buy extra pods and swap them out whenever you want a change of pace. Another benefit of the SKE Bar 15K is that the replacement pods are more practical to carry around compared to the original.
How does it hit?
The 15K delivers the classic SKE Bar MTL hit, but with fuller flavor thanks to the increased battery power and larger mouthpiece. It’s a legit MTL that, despite its larger size, is more in line with the original SKE Bar than the CL2000.
The mesh coil activates instantly, producing vapor that’s both warm and smooth, with the clarity and accuracy of flavor that’s made SKE products so popular.
There have been no issues whatsoever with the SKE Bar 15K. No leaking, gurgling, or dry hits. With the crystal tank showing the contents of the pod, it makes me much more confident taking these with me when I’m leaving the house.
SKE Bar 15K best flavors
If you’re new to SKE flavors, expect clarity, accuracy, and just generally “good” flavor profiles. If you’re already experienced with SKE flavors, know that the same tastes will be available in the SKE Bar 15K, though they will likely perform better since you’re dealing with more power. These are my five favorites:
Melon berry: Sweet and juicy mix of melon and bright berry. Moderate ice.
Fizzy cherry: A sweet, tart and vibrant cherry with an actual fizz sensation. Light ice.
Cherry ice: That same cherry but without the fizz; medium ice.
Pink lemonade: Classic flavor with the signature super clear SKE flavor. Light ice.
Kiwi Passionfruit Guava: Mystical and tropical, sweet and refreshing. Medium ice.
How long does it last?
Considering we’re working with 12 mL of liquid and an 850 mAh battery, you’re obviously dealing with longer runtimes here—for both liquid and battery consumption. With the original SKE Bar, I could only get a day of vaping with the battery and the liquid. With the SKE Bar 15K, I can easily get two or three days out of the liquid and a day and a half for the battery.
You can charge the Bar 15K like you would any other small electronic device with a USB-C charger. The device takes about an hour to charge and has pass-thru charging.

Verdict
If you liked the original Bar, you’ll love the SKE Bar 15K. Another 5 out of 5 for SKE! I swear, I’m not shilling! These are just great devices.
The SKE Bar 15K has the same design and flavor DNA that you’re used to, but bigger and more evolved. Now you get a larger 850 mAh battery and a screen that tells you exactly what the battery percentage is. Furthermore, the crystal tank makes it so you won’t have to worry about taking a dry hit since you can see fully how much liquid remains (an issue I had with the original).
The 15K is a lot closer to the CL2000 except for the MTL draw; that’s all SKE Bar! It’s as if SKE took the CL2000 and original SKE Bar and made them into the new SKE Bar 15K. Because of that, it's all upside. I think it’s the best out of the original SKE bar and the CL2000.
Highly recommended, particularly if you like an MTL draw or are just partial to the SKE Bar. If you want a bigger, airier hit, go for the CL2000.
