If you’re using a Lost Mary BM6000 and wondering how to open it, you’re not alone. Whether you want to check the pod, clean around the mouthpiece or explore how the refill system works, it’s helpful to understand what parts of the device can be accessed safely and which ones are best left alone.
The Lost Mary BM6000 was designed as a refillable, rechargeable vape kit that complies with current UK vape laws. It replaces the older single-use disposables that are no longer legal to sell. Unlike those older models, the BM6000 is built to be reused. That means you may need to open or access certain parts during day-to-day use, but you should be cautious about trying to take apart the device fully.
This guide covers what you can open on a Lost Mary BM6000, how to do it carefully, and what to avoid so you don’t damage the device.
What parts of the BM6000 are designed to be accessed?
The BM6000 includes a few components that are safe and intended to be opened or handled by users. These include:
-
The mouthpiece cap at the top of the device
-
The refill port or plug connected to the pod system
-
The USB-C charging port at the bottom of the device
These are the only sections that should be opened for regular use. The internal coil and battery components are sealed. Trying to disassemble them can cause leaks, damage or even safety risks. Unlike a modular vape kit with swappable parts, the BM6000 is semi-closed and built to stay intact during its intended lifespan.
How to open the mouthpiece area
Most users wanting to "open" a Lost Mary BM6000 are referring to the mouthpiece or pod top. This is where the vapour comes through and where you might notice buildup of liquid, dust or debris.
To safely open the top:
-
Grip the mouthpiece firmly and gently twist or wiggle it side to side.
-
On some models, it lifts off easily. On others, it may feel more snug.
-
Do not force it. If you meet heavy resistance, stop and try again with gentler pressure.
Underneath the mouthpiece, you may find a small rubber or silicone stopper. This plug is part of the pod seal and helps prevent leaking. You can gently lift it with your fingernail if needed, especially if you’re checking for condensation or want to clear airflow.
After checking or cleaning, replace the plug firmly and press the mouthpiece back on until it clicks or feels secure.
Can you access the refill system?
The BM6000 comes preloaded with 2ml of e-liquid in the pod and includes a 10ml refill bottle in the packaging. The refill mechanism is designed to be clean and easy, without needing to remove the pod or access the internal chamber.
To refill the device:
-
Turn the device upside down and locate the refill port.
-
Remove the rubber plug or cap covering the refill hole.
-
Insert the nozzle of the refill bottle and gently squeeze.
-
Once full, reseal the port and allow the liquid to soak into the coil for a few minutes before vaping again.

What not to open
You should never try to open the battery section or internal circuit housing of the BM6000. This part of the device is sealed for a reason. Breaking that seal can result in permanent damage or pose a safety risk.
Avoid the following:
-
Prying open the main plastic body
-
Removing the bottom cap or battery cover
-
Trying to expose or replace the coil manually
-
Tampering with wires, solder points or sealed electronics
If the battery no longer charges, the coil is burnt or the device is no longer producing vapour, the safest course is to replace it with a new BM6000.
Why opening certain parts can cause problems
The pod and battery are tightly integrated in the BM6000. Trying to open parts that are not meant to be accessed can lead to:
-
Leaking around the coil area
-
Damaged seals or poor airflow
-
Flavour loss or dry hits
-
Short circuits or battery failure
-
Voiding any return or warranty rights
While some vapers are used to more customisable devices, the BM6000 is built for simplicity. It’s designed to work smoothly without maintenance beyond recharging and refilling.
Cleaning the outside of the device
If your device is gurgling, leaking or feeling sticky around the mouthpiece, you might not need to open it at all. In most cases, gently cleaning around the top and refill area will be enough.
Use a cotton bud or tissue to:
-
Dab up any excess liquid near the mouthpiece
-
Clear dust or fluff from the refill port
-
Wipe around the charging port to ensure a solid connection
Do not use water, alcohol or cleaning sprays. Just a dry cloth or cotton bud will do the job.
Can you change the pod or coil?
The coil is built into the pod and is not designed to be removed or replaced. Once the flavour drops off or vapour becomes weak, it’s time to replace the device. While this might seem less flexible than refillable tank kits, it also means fewer moving parts to go wrong.
If you’ve used the entire 10ml refill bottle and flavour is no longer strong, the pod is likely near the end of its usable life. You can view fresh options in the Lost Mary BM6000 collection where you’ll find the latest flavours and colour styles.
Final thoughts
Opening a Lost Mary BM6000 should be limited to what the device was designed for. The mouthpiece, refill port and charging socket are accessible and easy to use. The rest of the device is sealed and should be left untouched to avoid damaging the unit or compromising performance.
If you’re experiencing problems with vapour, flavour or airflow, the issue can often be fixed by refilling, recharging or cleaning the mouthpiece. In cases where performance drops off completely, replacing the device is the safest and easiest option.
Lost Mary designed the BM6000 to be easy, clean and efficient. With simple care and proper use, there’s rarely any need to open anything beyond the refill port or mouthpiece.
