First Impressions of the UWell Caliburn G4 Device

This easy-to-hold vape device has been given a sleek body upgrade from its predecessor. The Caliburn G4 is crafted from durable aluminum alloy with rounded corners and a unique ridged design. It’s also very lightweight at just 48g.

One of the newer updates is with the 0.85” HD screen—now in colour! The screen offers a dynamic theme UI with battery and wattage indicators, puff count and more. If you’re not keen on the new colourful animations, you can switch to a classic black and white interface.

Charging the UWell Caliburn G4 for the First Time

The Caliburn G4 comes with a standard USB-C charger that can be used on the go. When it’s time to recharge, It takes about 45 minutes and you’re good to start your next vape session.

Preparing the Pod in the UWell Caliburn G4

You can easily fill your Caliburn G4 with e-liquid without needing to remove the pod from the device. Simply refill from the top or the side of the pod. The Caliburn G4 does have a slight decrease in e-liquid capacity (2 ml compared to the G3’s 2.5 ml), so that’s something to consider if you’re thinking about making the switch.

Since the G4 is compatible with the G3 pods, you’ll enjoy the benefits of the improved ergonomic design and more comfortable mouthpiece. The upgraded design also boasts leak-resistant performance for a great vaping experience each time. When it’s time to replace your G3 pod, you can order more here.

Key Points:

  • Refill your device through the top or side of pod
  • Ergonomic design, comfortable mouthpiece and leak-resistant

Using the UWell Caliburn G4

Draw Quality

The G4 delivers consistent flavour and vapour thanks to UWell’s Pro-FOCS 4.0 flavour tech and new U² coil technology, which prevents burnouts and distributes heat more evenly.

You can switch between Waves mode (smooth draw) and Storm mode (stronger, punchier hit) depending on your preference.

Airflow Adjustment

Three airflow adjustment methods:

  • Slide the side valve
  • Flip the pod orientation
  • Combine both methods for finer tuning

Charging & Longevity

You’ll get a noticeable upgrade in longevity with the 1300 mAh battery (35% more than the G3). USB-C charging takes about 45 minutes for a full charge, which should last most users a full day or more. The G4 also features U² technology, which allows your coils to heat evenly to prevent burnouts and also helps extend the lifespan of the pods.

Key Points:

  • Upgraded 1300 mAh battery
  • Wattage range 5W to 35W
  • Coils heat evenly through U² technology

Pro Tips for Using the G4

  • Use 20–25W for 0.4 Ω pods for a stronger, direct-lung hit
  • Use 13–18W for 0.9 Ω pods for smoother MTL or nic salt vaping
  • Lock the device (2 clicks) before pocketing to avoid misfires
  • Tilt the pod slightly when top-filling to prevent overflow
  • Charge before dropping below 10% to extend battery lifespan
  • Switch to Storm mode for a bolder hit—great with lower resistance pods
  • Use combined airflow adjustment (slider + pod orientation) for max control
