The Waker E‑Shisha Head: Charcoal-Free Shisha, Reimagined

The Waker E‑Shisha Head is the UK's leading electronic shisha bowl — a smart, charcoal-free alternative to traditional clay and silicone bowls that delivers an authentic shisha experience without the hassle of lighting, managing, or disposing of charcoal.

Powered by a built-in 4,000mAh rechargeable battery and charged via USB-C, the Waker heats your flavour pod electronically to the ideal temperature. An LED ambient glow and digital display show battery level and pod capacity at a glance. Each full charge delivers approximately 2–3 hours of continuous session time — enough for a long, relaxed session at home or with friends.

Compatible with any standard shisha pipe, the Waker slots in exactly where your bowl normally sits. No foil, no coals, no wind cover needed.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does the Waker E‑Shisha Head fit my existing shisha pipe?
Yes, the Waker Gen 2 E‑Shisha Head is designed to fit standard shisha pipes. It replaces your existing bowl and sits in the same position. No adaptor is required for most pipes. If you're unsure about compatibility with your specific model, feel free to contact us before purchasing.
How long does each flavour pod last?
Each 10ml Waker Gen 2 flavour pod is designed for approximately 2–3 hours of continuous session time. Actual duration may vary slightly depending on draw frequency and session intensity. Once a pod is finished, simply swap it out, the process takes a few seconds.

Unlike traditional shisha flavours, you can start and stop as many times as you like without affecting the taste and strength of the flavour. So flavours will last longer depending on how much or how little you use it.
Do I still need shisha charcoal with the Waker?
No. The Waker E‑Shisha Head is a completely charcoal-free system. It uses a built-in 4,000mAh rechargeable battery and electronic heating element to warm the flavour pod. There is no coal, no foil, and no heat management device required.
Is the Waker suitable for beginners?
Yes, the Waker is one of the easiest shisha products to use. Setup takes around 30 seconds: charge the unit via USB-C, insert a flavour pod, attach to your shisha pipe, and you're ready. There's no coal-lighting technique or temperature management involved, making it a great starting point for those new to shisha.
Does the Waker contain nicotine?
Yes the Waker flavour pods sold on The Shisha Shop all contain nicotine. They contain a flavoured vapour medium heated electronically. As with all our products, the Waker is TRPR compliant and sold to adults aged 18 and over only.
How do I store the E‑Shisha Head and pods?
When you have finished your session, remove the pod from the eHead and place the pod upside down in a cool place. This is important — storing pods upside down prevents any leakage. Keep pods away from direct sunlight and heat. Store the eHead unit in a safe, dry location between sessions.
Are the pods interchangeable with the Waker Gen 1 or other e-hookah heads?
When you have finished your session, remove the pod from the eHead and place the pod upside down in a cool place. This is important, storing pods upside down prevents any leakage. Keep pods away from direct sunlight and heat. Store the eHead unit in a safe, dry location between sessions.
Can the pods be refilled?
No, the Waker Gen 2 pods cannot be refilled. Once the pod is finished it should be disposed of responsibly, in the same way you would dispose of any disposable vape device.
