The Lost Mary BM6000 is a rechargeable prefilled pod kit with one flavour at a time, and that single flavour system is the key to most faults. You keep the battery device, and you replace the pod and refill pack when they run out. It is not a sealed disposable that you throw away when it stops, and it is not a kit you fill yourself with a bottle. A fault that looks like a dead device is often just a pod that is not seated, a refill container that is empty, or a battery that is flat even though the display still lights up.

The battery needs a clear note, because listings give three figures for the same kit. Most listings, and the VapeSuperstore product page checked today, give 1000mAh. London Vape Wholesale gives 650mAh, and MyCigara gives 500mAh. This guide uses 1000mAh as the working figure, from the most listings, and it keeps the other figures visible here. The battery figure does not change any fix below, because every charging check is judged by the display and by a trusted cable and adapter, not by the mAh figure alone.
The nicotine note is short. Most listings give 20mg per ml as the standard strength. The same product page also lists a 10mg version and a 0mg nicotine-free version, and VapeClub lists 0mg, 10mg, and 20mg. This guide is written for the 20mg version, and it tells you to check the pack label, because a 10mg or 0mg version may also be in a shop, and the checks below work for those versions too.
The display note is short. The most detailed listings call it an LED display showing battery level and remaining e-liquid, and VapeSuperstore also calls it an OLED display in its overview, with a visible e-liquid window as an extra view. This guide calls it a display, and it does not rely on one exact field list. A display that shows a battery level is enough for every charging check below, and a liquid level, where shown, is enough for every use check below.
Do not confuse this kit with the original Lost Mary BM600 disposable, a single use device with about 600 puffs, or with the Lost Mary Nera 30k, a different device further down the Boss list. This kit is a rechargeable pod kit, with one pod and one refill container at a time, and it uses replacement pod and refill packs for this kit only. Pods for other models or other brands do not fit this device in the same way, and forcing a wrong pod can damage the connection and cause leaking. Check the device name on the pod before you buy.
Note on the box and the cable: VapeSuperstore lists the box as the pod kit, a 2ml prefilled pod, and a 10ml refill container, with a USB-C cable not included. Other listings say the same, so check your box before you assume a cable is included, and use a trusted cable you know works.
One Pod, One Refill, One Draw
Check the pod, the display, and the refill container before you assume a flavour or vapour fault. On the Lost Mary BM6000, the pod, the display, and the refill container work as one system, so a pod fault can look like a device fault, and a battery fault can look like a pod fault.
How the Pod and Refill Container Work Together
The 2ml pod sits at the top of the device and contains the coil, while the 10ml refill container sits inside the device and feeds liquid into the pod when the kit is turned upside down. To set the kit up, insert the refill container and pod as shown in the instructions, turn the kit upside down to allow liquid to flow into the pod, then wait around 5 minutes before vaping so the coil can fully saturate. A pod that gives almost nothing is not proof that the whole setup is finished, until you check whether the refill container is also empty. If both the pod and the container are empty, the setup is finished, even if the battery device still charges and the display still lights up.
Reading the LED Display
The display shows battery level in every listing checked, and remaining e-liquid in the most detailed listings. A display that shows a battery level is not a fault. A display that shows nothing after a full charge, a very low battery, or a liquid level that stays still after many draws is the real problem. Where a liquid level is shown, you can also look at the visible e-liquid window and see if liquid is still present, even before taste changes.
If the display shows a low battery warning that clears after a full charge, the fault was battery level, not a broken device. If the display stays blank, or shows a warning that does not clear after a full charge and a fresh pod test, the device needs replacement, not repeated refitting.

Fixing the Lost Mary BM6000, One Problem at a Time
The kit can stop hitting, fail to charge, leak, flash, or taste burnt when a pod, the contacts, the liquid level, the battery, or the airflow has a problem. Basic checks can help identify the cause before a pod or device replacement is needed.
Basic pod check, do this first for any problem below, unless that section tells you to stop for safety: Make sure the pod is fully seated, with no gap and no wobble. This is also how to use the kit correctly for the first time, and how to replace a pod correctly. Wipe the pod contacts and the device contacts with a dry tissue, check the liquid on the display and in the window, check the display battery level, charge the device fully until the display shows a full battery, and give a new pod a short rest before the first draw. If you have a fresh replacement pod and refill pack, test with it. If a fresh pod works and the old pod does not, the old pod is finished, even if the device is fine. On a new pod, remove every protective seal first, then push the pod in until it sits firmly, turn the kit upside down to allow liquid to flow into the pod, and wait around 5 minutes before vaping.

1. Lost Mary BM6000 Not Firing or Pod Not Detected
Not firing is when you draw and get nothing, or the device seems dead even though it charges. A pod not detected fault often shows by a complete lack of vapour, with no display change on a draw.
Common Causes
A pod that is not fully seated gives poor contact, so the device cannot detect the pod. Dirty contacts, condensation on the contacts, or a damaged pod can also cause a pod not detected fault. A battery that is very flat can leave the device dead on a draw, even if it shows a little life on charge. A seal left on a new pod blocks contact, and a refill container that is not fitted correctly can also stop the pod from feeding liquid, so the device gives nothing on a draw.
How to Fix
Charge the device fully until the display shows a full battery, then remove the pod and wipe the contacts with a dry tissue. Check that every protective seal is removed from a new pod, then push the pod in until it sits firmly, with no gap and no wobble. Check that the refill container is fitted correctly, turn the kit upside down to allow liquid to flow into the pod, and wait around 5 minutes before vaping. Take a slow, steady draw, and check if the display changes and vapour follows. Test with a fresh pod and refill pack if you have one, because a fresh pod test settles a pod detection fault fast.
When to Replace
Replace the pod and refill pack if the device fires with a fresh pod, but not with the old pod, after a full charge, a clean refit, and a seal check. Replace the device if it will not fire with a fresh pod, a full battery, and clean contacts.

2. Burnt Taste From the Lost Mary BM6000
Burnt taste is when vapour tastes harsh, dry, or like burnt cotton, even though the device still fires. Burnt taste is a sign that the coil is dry or worn, not a sign that the device needs a stronger draw.
Common Causes
A pod low on liquid, or a refill container that is empty, leaves the coil dry, and a dry coil burns on a draw. A new pod used straight away, with no short rest before the first draw, can also taste burnt, because liquid has not reached the coil evenly. Hard, long draws, one after another with no gap, can dry the coil faster than liquid can reach it. A pod that has been used for many puffs gives burnt taste as the coil and wick wear, even if liquid is still present.
How to Fix
Check the liquid level on the display and in the window first, then see if the refill container is also empty. Turn the kit upside down to allow liquid to flow into the pod, and give a new pod a rest of around 5 minutes before the first draw, so the coil is fully primed and vapour is not burnt from a dry start. Take slow, steady draws, with a gap between draws, rather than hard pulls one after another. If burnt taste stays after a rest and slow draws, the problem is the pod, not the draw.
When to Replace
Replace the pod and refill pack if the burnt taste stays after a liquid check, a rest, and slow draws, and the pod has low liquid or many puffs on it. Do not keep using a pod that tastes burnt, because a burnt coil will not recover. Replace the device if a fresh pod tastes burnt straight away, after a rest and slow draws, with a full battery and a fully seated pod.
3. Weak Vapour From the Lost Mary BM6000
Weak vapour is when you get a thin draw, a small cloud, or a flavour that seems far away, even though the device still fires. Weak vapour is often a liquid or battery fault, not a broken device on its own.
Common Causes
A pod low on liquid gives thin vapour first, then almost nothing. A pod that has been used for many puffs, or that has been in the device for a long time, gives weak vapour as the coil and wick wear. A battery low on charge gives weak vapour, because the coil does not heat fully. A pod not fully seated can also give weak vapour, because the device cannot read the pod fully.
How to Fix
Charge the device fully until the display shows a full battery, then check the liquid level on the display and in the window. Turn the kit upside down to allow liquid to flow into the pod, remove the pod, wipe the contacts with a dry tissue, push the pod in until it sits firmly, and test again. Take a slow, steady mouth to lung draw. Give a new pod a rest of around 5 minutes before the first draw, so the coil is fully primed and vapour is not weak from a dry start. This weak vapour fault is the same fault people describe as not hitting. If weak vapour stays on a fresh pod, the problem is not the old pod alone.
When to Replace
Replace the pod and refill pack if weak vapour stays after a full charge, a full refit, and a test, and the pod has low liquid or many puffs on it. Replace the device if weak vapour stays on a fresh pod, with a full battery and a clean, fully seated pod.
4. Tight Draw From the Lost Mary BM6000
Tight draw is when you have to pull hard to get vapour, or you get almost nothing even though the device still fires. This kit is a mouth to lung device in the listings checked, so the draw is restricted by design, but a draw that gets much tighter than normal is a fault.
Common Causes
Blocked airflow inlets, lint or dust in the inlets, or condensation in the mouthpiece can make the draw feel tight. A pod that is not fully seated, or a pod with a seal left on, can also block the draw. A pod low on liquid, or a pod that has been used for many puffs, can give a tight, weak draw. A battery low on charge can also give a weak, tight feeling draw, because the coil does not heat fully.
How to Fix
Remove the pod and check the airflow inlets for lint, dust, or liquid, and wipe them with a dry tissue. Check that every seal is removed from a new pod, then push the pod in until it sits firmly. Wipe the mouthpiece and the pod contacts, and take a slow, steady draw, rather than a hard pull. If the draw stays tight, check the display battery level, because a low battery can also give a weak, tight feeling draw.
When to Replace
Replace the pod and refill pack if the draw stays tight after cleaning, seal checks, and a full refit. Replace the device if the draw stays tight on a fresh pod, with clean inlets and a fully seated pod.
5. Lost Mary BM6000 Not Charging
Not charging is when the device shows no charging sign on the display, or the battery level does not rise, even though it is plugged in. A charging fault is often a cable or port fault, not a dead battery on its own.
Common Causes
A weak or damaged USB-C cable, a weak wall adapter, or a laptop port that does not give enough power can all cause not charging. Lint or dust in the charging port can block the cable, and a cable that is not pushed fully in can also fail to charge. A battery that is very flat can take a short time before the display shows a charging sign, so a charge judged in the first minute can look like a fault. A device with port damage, or with liquid in the port, can also fail to charge.
How to Fix
Use a trusted USB-C cable you know works, and a trusted wall adapter, and plug the device in directly from a wall socket, not from a weak laptop port. This is how to charge the kit correctly, and it is the first fix for not charging. Push the cable fully into the port, check for lint or dust with a dry tissue, and look for a charging sign on the display. Leave the device on charge and check the display again after a short time, rather than judging it in the first minute. Try one different trusted cable and one different trusted adapter, and if a cable works for another device but not for this kit, change the cable and the adapter together, not just one of them. The cable is not included in the box in the listings checked, so a trusted cable you already own is the right cable to test with.
When to Replace
Replace the cable and adapter first if the device charges with a different cable and adapter. Replace the device if it will not charge with a trusted cable and adapter, a clean port, and a full charge time, and the display shows no charging sign.
6. Lost Mary BM6000 Leaking or Gurgling
Leaking is when liquid appears outside the pod, on the device, or on your hands, and gurgling is when the draw sounds wet and vapour feels thin. A little condensation in the mouthpiece is not the same as a leak, and a hard pull can make both worse.
Common Causes
A pod that is not fully seated, or a refill container that is not fitted correctly, can leave a gap where liquid escapes. A damaged pod seal, or a pod that has been refitted many times, can also leak. Hard pulls pull liquid into the mouthpiece faster than the coil can heat it, and that liquid shows as gurgling. A device kept upside down, except for the short turn in setup to feed liquid into the pod, or in a hot pocket or bag, can also cause leaking, because heat and pressure push liquid out of the pod.
How to Fix
Remove the pod and wipe the pod, the device, and the mouthpiece with a dry tissue. Push the pod in until it sits firmly, with no gap and no wobble, and check that the refill container is fitted correctly. Take slow, steady draws, rather than hard pulls, and keep the device upright for use. This leaking and gurgling fault is the same fault people describe as leaking. If the mouthpiece has condensation, wipe it dry and test again with a slow draw. Do not keep using a pod that leaks heavily, even if it still gives vapour.
When to Replace
Replace the pod and refill pack if leaking or gurgling stays after a clean refit and slow draws, and the pod seal or container shows damage. Replace the device if a fresh pod leaks in the same way, with a fully seated pod and slow draws, and the device contacts or pod bay show damage.
7. Lost Mary BM6000 Flashing or Screen Trouble
Flashing is when the display blinks, shows a warning, or goes blank, even though the device still charges. A screen fault is often a battery or pod seating fault, not a broken screen on its own.
Common Causes
A battery low on charge can cause flashing or a low battery warning on the display, and a battery that is very flat can leave the display blank. A pod that is not fully seated gives poor contact, so the device cannot read the pod, and the display can flash or stay blank. Dirty contacts, condensation on the contacts, or a damaged pod can also cause flashing. A device that has been dropped, or that shows damage, can flash even with a full battery and a fresh pod.
How to Fix
Charge the device fully with a trusted USB-C cable and adapter, and check the display again after a full charge. Remove the pod, wipe the contacts with a dry tissue, push the pod in until it sits firmly, and check the liquid level on the display and in the window. Take a slow, steady draw, and see if the display shows a battery level and a liquid level. If the display shows a battery level after a full charge and a clean refit, the fault was battery level or pod seating, not a broken screen.
When to Replace
Replace the pod and refill pack if flashing or screen trouble clears with a fresh pod, after a full charge and a clean refit. Replace the device if flashing or a blank screen stays with a fresh pod, a full battery, and clean contacts, or if the device shows damage.
8. Flavour Fading From the Lost Mary BM6000
Flavour fading is when taste gets weaker over time, even though the device still fires and still gives vapour. Flavour fading is different from a burnt taste, because vapour still feels smooth, only the taste is faint.
Common Causes
A pod that has been used for many puffs gives fading flavour as the coil and wick wear, even if liquid is still present. A pod low on liquid gives fading flavour first, then weak vapour, then almost nothing. Long, hard draws can also dull flavour faster, because the coil heats more than it needs to for a normal draw.
How to Fix
Charge the device fully until the display shows a full battery, then check the liquid level on the display and in the window. Turn the kit upside down to allow liquid to flow into the pod, remove the pod, wipe the contacts, and push the pod in until it sits firmly. Take slow, steady draws, with a gap between draws, and see if flavour returns on a fresh draw. If flavour stays faint after a full charge, a liquid check, and a refit, the problem is the pod, not the battery.
When to Replace
Replace the pod and refill pack if flavour fading stays after a full charge, a liquid check, and a refit, and the pod has many puffs on it. Replace the device if flavour fading stays on a fresh pod, with a full battery and a clean, fully seated pod.
9. Fast Battery Drain on the Lost Mary BM6000
Fast battery drain is when the display shows a falling battery level much sooner than expected, even though the device still charges. A battery that drops in a few draws is a different fault from normal use over a day.
Common Causes
Long or frequent draws use more battery than short, occasional draws, and a mesh coil device uses more power when it is used heavily. A battery that is charged with a weak adapter, or that is topped up for a few minutes at a time, can show a full display level that falls fast. A pod that is worn, or that gives weak vapour, can make a user draw harder and longer, which uses more battery. A device that is older, or that has been charged many times, can also hold less charge than a new device.
How to Fix
Charge the device fully with a trusted wall adapter until the display shows a full battery, and avoid judging battery life from a short top up. Take slow, steady draws, with a gap between draws, and check the display battery level over a day, rather than after a few draws. Check the pod age and liquid level, because a worn pod can make you draw more. Clean the contacts and refit the pod, so the device does not waste power on a poor connection. The Lost Mary BM 6000 uses a 1000mAh battery in most listings, and heavy use will drain it faster than light use.
When to Replace
Replace the pod and refill pack if battery drain stays fast on a fresh pod, with a full charge and normal draws, and the old pod was worn or low on liquid. Replace the device if battery drain stays fast on a fresh pod, with a full charge from a trusted adapter, clean contacts, and normal draws, and the display shows a falling level much sooner than expected.
10. Lost Mary BM6000 Auto-Firing or Getting Hot
Auto-firing is when the device fires on its own, without a draw, or keeps firing after you stop drawing. Getting hot is when the device feels hot in a pocket, in a bag, or without use. This section is stop and replace only, with no fix steps that keep a faulty device in use.
Common Causes
Liquid in the pod bay, a damaged pod, or a device that has been dropped can cause auto-firing, because the draw sensor or the pod connection no longer reads correctly. Heat in a pocket or bag, or a device left in direct sunlight, can also make a device feel hot, and a device that fires on its own will also get hot from repeated firing.
How to Fix
Stop using the device at once. Do not charge it, do not draw from it, and do not try to fix it by removing and refitting pods, wiping contacts, or changing anything else. Keep it away from flammable material, and do not put it in a pocket or bag again. If it feels very hot, swollen, or smells of burning plastic, keep it away from people and pets, and follow local electronic waste rules for a damaged device.
When to Replace
Replace the device at once if it fires on its own, keeps firing after you stop drawing, or gets hot without use. Do not reuse the device, even if it stops firing for a short time, because the fault can return without warning.
FAQS (FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS)
Why is the Lost Mary BM6000 not hitting after charging?
Check the display battery level, then check pod seating, contacts, and seals. A full charge does not help if the pod is not seated, if a seal is left on a new pod, or if the pod is low on liquid. This is the answer for not hitting after charging. Charge fully, wipe the contacts, refit the pod until it sits firmly, turn the kit upside down to allow liquid to flow into the pod, and test with a fresh replacement pod and refill pack if you have one.
Why is the Lost Mary BM6000 not hitting after fitting a new pod?
Remove every protective seal from the new pod, then push the pod in until it sits firmly. Turn the kit upside down to allow liquid to flow into the pod, and wait around 5 minutes before vaping, so the coil can fully saturate. A pod that is not fully seated, or that has a seal left on, will not hit even if the battery is full.
How do you set up the Lost Mary BM6000?
Insert the refill container and pod as shown in the instructions, turn the kit upside down to allow liquid to flow into the pod, then wait around 5 minutes before vaping so the coil can fully saturate. The pod is not designed to be refilled manually with bottled e-liquid. Inhale through the mouthpiece to activate the device, with no fire button to press.
How do you change the pod on the Lost Mary BM6000?
Pull the old pod and refill container out of the device. Remove every seal from the new pod and refill pack, align them with the pod slot, and push them in until they sit firmly, with no gap and no wobble. Turn the kit upside down to allow liquid to flow into the pod, and wait around 5 minutes before vaping.
Can you refill the Lost Mary BM6000 pods?
No. This kit is a prefilled pod kit, not a user refillable kit. The pod and refill container are sealed, and the kit is not filled with a bottle by the user. When a pod is finished, replace it with a replacement pod and refill pack. Never open, pierce, or try to refill a sealed pod or refill container.
How long does it take to charge the Lost Mary BM6000?
Most listings give no single minute figure, so this guide does not give a single minute guarantee. One listing says around 30 minutes, and another section on the same page says 2 to 3 hours, so the listings themselves disagree. Use a trusted USB-C cable and a trusted wall adapter, and charge until the display shows a full battery. Judge charging by the display, not by the clock alone.
How many puffs does the Lost Mary BM6000 give?
The Lost Mary BM 6000 gives up to 6,000 puffs per pod and refill setup in the listings checked, also written as 6000 in some listings. That figure is approximate, not a guarantee, and actual use varies with draw length and frequency. A pod that gives weak flavour or burnt taste before that figure is finished, because coil wear and liquid level matter more than the puff number alone.
What pods work with the Lost Mary BM6000?
Only Lost Mary BM6000 replacement pod and refill packs. Pods for other models or other brands do not fit this device in the same way, and forcing a wrong pod can damage the connection and cause leaking. Check the device name on the pod before you buy.
Is the Lost Mary BM6000 available without nicotine?
Yes, in some listings. The standard kit is supplied with a 20mg pod and refill out of the box, and the same product page also lists a 10mg version and a 0mg nicotine-free version. Check the pack label before you buy, because the version in a shop may be 20mg, 10mg, or 0mg.
How should you store the Lost Mary BM6000?
Store the device upright, in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight, heat, and water, and out of reach of children. Keep it out of a pocket or bag where the device can be damaged. Dispose of used pods and a finished device under local electronic waste rules, not in normal household waste.
