The Uwell Caliburn G5 pod kit is the flagship of the Caliburn G5 generation, priced at $48.00 and available in Canada at Vaping The Way. It runs on a 1600mAh battery with 35W max output, uses Uwell's new GPP Alpha Cartridge with AlphaCore longevity technology, and ships with 3 pods included. Unlike the simpler Caliburn G5 Lite, the full G5 carries a colour screen, Triple-Tap gesture control, and dual power modes. Airflow is adjusted via a stepless side slider, and VTW stocks the top fill version of the Caliburn G5.

Caliburn G5 key features
GPP Alpha Cartridge with AlphaCore longevity tech
The Caliburn G5 ships with three GPP Alpha Cartridges, each built with AlphaCore coil technology. Uwell rates the Alpha pod for 17+ refills and over 50mL of e-liquid before replacement, longer than standard pods, which typically last 5 to 10 refills. The practical result is fewer pod purchases over time and consistent flavour that doesn't degrade mid pod the way older coil designs can. The soft touch TPU mouthpiece adds comfort for extended use.
Smart Triple-Tap control
The G5 replaces traditional button cycling with a tap sensor on the device body. Triple tapping anywhere switches between modes, UI themes, or screen brightness, with no need to locate a specific button. This works in low light or without looking at the device. It's a more intuitive approach to managing power modes than the button click sequences used on most pod kits.
Waves Mode and Storm Mode
The Caliburn G5 offers two power delivery modes accessible via Triple-Tap. Waves Mode delivers a smoother, more gradual power curve, suited for longer, cooler draws and flavour focused vaping. Storm Mode delivers a stronger, more immediate hit, better for a tighter draw with more intensity. Both use the same pod; the difference is how power is applied to the coil.
Stepless airflow control
A side mounted airflow control slider adjusts draw resistance smoothly across the full range from tight MTL to a looser RDL draw. Unlike stepped airflow designs, the stepless slider lets you dial in the exact resistance you prefer without clicking between fixed positions.
