It’s no secret that Geek Bars have been hard to find over the past several months. Vape shops are sold out everywhere, and rumors are beginning to appear suggesting that the brand has been completely discontinued. That means the field is wide open for another company to step in and claim the crown as the most popular vape, and the new Fume Pro 30K is clearly designed to fill that void. It looks like a Geek Bar and works like a Geek Bar, and the most important thing is that you can actually buy it.
The Fume Pro 30K also has a fun additional feature: It contains 22 percent more e-liquid than the long-lasting Geek Bar Pulse X.

Fume Pro 30K Features
Familiar Look and Feel
For those who aren't familiar with Fume already, the biggest selling point of the Fume Pro 30K will be the fact that it looks basically the same as the well-known Geek Bar Pulse X. Fume isn't a new brand, though -- they've actually been around for quite a while. This isn't a fly-by-night clone; it's simply a device from an experienced maker that knows how to give consumers what they want.
The Fume Pro has the same shape and overall design as the Geek Bar Pulse X, right down to the smart display and the light show that curves around the device’s front panel. It has the same bite-friendly soft coating on the mouthpiece. It even works the same, with a single switch on the bottom of the device that adjusts both the mode and the airflow. If you’re a Geek Bar fan, you’re going to find that the Fume Pro 30K is basically a drop-in replacement.
Improved Flavor Quality
The Fume Pro might look and feel like a Geek Bar, but that doesn’t mean there isn’t room to improve on that classic design. One of the most obvious improvements is the fact that the Fume Pro 30K contains 22 ml of vape juice as compared to the 18 ml of the Geek Bar Pulse X. That’s about 22 percent more e-liquid, which will translate to days of additional use for most people.
Under the hood, though, the Fume Pro contains an even more impressive improvement. Fume’s new burn-free coil technology uses advanced temperature and power regulation to ensure that you won’t have to worry about harsh burnt hits from extended use. If you’ve been plagued by burnt hits during extended sessions with other vapes, we think you’ll appreciate this feature because it contributes to usability and flavor consistency in a big way.
Right Amount of Technology
One of the reasons why Geek Bars have remained so popular even as other vapes with more advanced features have been released is because there’s a significant contingent of people who don’t actually use those features. It might be a fun novelty to have a vape with a million different things that you can modify, but the fact is that many people would rather just buy a vape that works great out of the box and doesn’t need any additional tinkering.
While it’s good to have a vape that’s set up to provide good performance without the need to mess around with settings, there are some basic features that most people actually do want. For many, a vape is a non-starter if it doesn’t have adjustable power, adjustable airflow and some kind of smart display. You get all of those things with the Fume Pro 30K, which basically means that you get all of the features that you want and none of the features you don’t. Many people will find that it has exactly the right blend of technology and simplicity.
What Are the Best Fume Pro 30K Flavors?
It’s fun to use a device with good looks and great features, but a disposable vape truly lives and dies on its flavor selection. The Fume Pro 30K has a fairly small flavor selection at launch, but what’s available definitely hits all of the high points in terms of offering what the majority of vapers want. We’re also hopeful that Fume will expand the flavor selection in the future if the Fume Pro 30K is successful, which seems all but certain to us.
These are the Fume flavors offered at the time of writing.
- Freezer Ice: Menthol fans should take note because the Fume Pro 30K offers two plain mint/menthol flavors for those who prefer a vaping experience that’s a bit less sweet. Freezer Ice is the milder of the two options, and it delivers a moderate level of coolness layered over a smooth mint base.
- Lush Ice: Watermelon vapes from the major brands are always some of the first flavors to sell out, which isn’t surprising because sweet watermelon and cool menthol work beautifully together. Fume’s Lush Ice flavor tastes a bit like a watermelon ice pop, and you’re going to love kicking back with it when you’re trying to beat the heat.
- Mango Tango: What would a self-respecting disposable vape brand be without at least one mango flavor? Mango Tango is a fresh and zingy offering with a nicely balanced profile of sweet and sour notes, and we think it’s absolutely ideal for all-day vaping.
- Miami Mint: The Miami Mint flavor has been a big hit in the vaping community over the past year or so, and all of the major manufacturers have developed their own variations on this classic profile. It’s a mint flavor with a subtle citrus undertone, giving you a blend that’s a bit less sweet compared to most fruit-and-ice flavors.
- Polar Ice: If you’re looking for the coldest menthol flavor in the Fume Pro lineup, Polar Ice is the one you’ll want to choose. This flavor has a mint base similar to that of Freezer Ice, but it includes additional cooling to give you a serious rush in the throat. If you want a vape that’s ice cold, this is definitely the one for you.
- Strawberry Wind: If you can’t get enough strawberry in your life, Strawberry Wind is going to be the Fume flavor for you because this offering has nothing but strawberry with no other distracting notes to get in the way. Like all of Fume’s fruity flavors, there’s a nice amount of tartness here to go with the sweetness. Every hit will leave you feeling refreshed and ready for more.
- Triple Berry Ice: Why should you restrict yourself to just one berry note when you can have all of your favorites in a single glorious puff? Triple Berry Ice mixes notes of strawberry, blueberry and raspberry to leave you feeling like you’ve just taken a stroll through a verdant orchard.
- White Grape: Grape vape flavors are fairly common these days, but white grape is less so. You’ll enjoy this tasty alternative to the traditional dark grape flavor used in most vapes.
Not sure what to choose first? We’d have to go with Lush Ice as the perfect introduction to the Fume Pro. Everybody loves a vape that blends a good amount of sweetness with just the right level of ice, and that’s exactly that Lush Ice does. It’s the perfect vape flavor for summer.
Fume Pro 30K Review: Our Expert Perspective
The mission of the Fume Pro 30K is obvious: It’s here to provide a Geek Bar alternative that looks the same, works the same and provides an experience that’s just as good. The Fume Pro succeeds admirably in that mission. The experience is arguably even better, in fact, since it has more e-liquid than the Geek Bar Pulse X. The proprietary burn-free coil technology is also a huge plus. The only thing holding the Fume Pro back right now is the fact that it can’t compete with Geek Bar’s enormous flavor selection. With time, though, we’re certain that more options will be on the way.
Best Points
- Looks and works like the popular Geek Bar Pulse X but has even more e-liquid
- Uses proprietary power delivery technology to provide smooth flavor and reduce burnt hits
Could Be Improved
- A bigger flavor selection would be nice, but more flavors are certainly on the way
