Electric Hookahs – Fewer Harmful Substances, More Comfort – The New Way to Enjoy Hookah

In the hookah scene, many attempts have been made in recent years to simplify the classic hookah experience while making it less harmful. The main focus has been on eliminating hookah charcoal – not only is it cumbersome to handle, but it also produces a significant amount of unwanted toxins when smoking.

The solution: electric systems that heat the tobacco precisely and in a controlled way – without embers, carbon monoxide, or ash. The result: less effort, more control – and still full flavor.

Electric hookahs are setting new standards in modern hookah enjoyment. They combine innovative heating technology with elegant design focused on simplicity, safety, and flavor.

Whether you're smoking at home or on the go – an electric hookah impresses with mobility, style, and comfort. Innovative systems like the XKAH Pro are pioneering the future of the industry, offering maximum comfort and flexibility.

A hookah experience that’s on par with traditional smoking.

Electric Hookah, e-HMD, e-Hookah Bowl – What Electric Hookah Systems Are Available?

Not all electric hookahs are the same – depending on how close you want to stay to the original hookah experience, there are different systems, each with its own strengths (and weaknesses).

Complete Systems – All-in-One Devices

  • Ooka: A compact system with pre-filled pods. Insert the pod, turn on the Ooka, and you're ready. Super easy, but you’re dependent on the matching pre-filled pods and can’t easily use your favorite tobacco. Also, in our opinion, smoke and flavor development are not comparable to a “normal” hookah.
  • Ensō: Also a complete system, but unlike Ooka, it uses refillable pods. This allows you to use your own tobacco and stay flexible. Still, Ensō’s smoke and flavor performance aren’t yet at the level of a traditional hookah.
  • Gookah: A kind of “upgrade” to the Ooka – same concept, but with better smoke performance and refillable pods. Developed by another manufacturer who appreciated Ooka’s system but saw room for improvement. The Gookah’s performance is similar to the Ensō, but also not on par with a classic hookah.

2. Electric HMDs – The Simple Transition

Want to keep your classic setup but ditch the charcoal? Then an electric HMD is the right choice. Just place it on your setup, turn it on, and enjoy.

  • Nevo: Replaces charcoal, HMD, and coal burner. You only need your tobacco and your bowl filled with it – the rest is electronically controlled. Important to know: Nevo is wired, making it less ideal for use on the go.
  • At home, Nevo is a good alternative to charcoal, but since the 2025 Shisha Fair, it’s no longer the best. The XKAH Pro was launched at the 2025 Shisha Fair in Frankfurt and surpasses all other e-solutions by far. That’s why we consider it the best electric HMD on the market.

3. XKAH Pro – The Modern Alternative to Charcoal

With the XKAH Pro, you get a product that excels in technology, ease of use, and flavor. The hybrid attachment replaces the bowl, HMD, charcoal, and burner – all in one compact, wireless device that fits directly onto your hookah.

The hookah tobacco is filled into special pods that are inserted into the device and electrically heated. This produces dense, flavorful smoke – without open embers, ash, or carbon monoxide. Temperature and session duration can be individually adjusted, the battery is replaceable, and the device is easy to clean.

This system has been in development for several years – and it shows: the XKAH Pro is well thought out, high-quality, and makes hookah smoking easier than ever before.

Our Recommendation – XKAH Pro

The XKAH Pro is the only electric solution currently available in our shop. Why? Because the XKAH Pro is more refined than any other device currently on the market. The hybrid system replaces the bowl, HMD, charcoal, and burner – all in a single device that attaches directly to your hookah. Simple, wireless, efficient – and equipped with a wide range of smart features.

Advantages of Electric Hookahs

  • Simplicity: No bowl setup, no charcoal, no ash – the pod system is quick and ready to use
  • Mobility: Thanks to their compact form, the devices fit into a backpack – perfect for travel or smoking on the go
  • Flavor: No charcoal taste to interfere with fruity aromas
  • Design & Materials: High-quality craftsmanship, stylish colors, and modern design elevate any setting

  • Far less effort in setup and cleaning
  • No fire hazard or ash residue
  • More control over temperature and smoke behavior

Who Is an Electric Hookah For?

This level of quality and pricing mainly appeals to modern hookah smokers who value efficiency, style, and quality. If you no longer want to deal with traditional setup and prefer a fast, clean, and controlled experience, this is the perfect solution.

It’s also a compelling choice for beginners with a bigger budget or for enjoying hookah on the go. The electric hookah covers a variety of needs – from classic flavors to trendy blends and even tobacco-free alternatives.

OOKA Hookah vs. XKAH Pro

There are currently several exciting trailblazers in the electric hookah space redefining the market. We compare the OOKA Hookah and XKAH Pro to show which device is suitable for which needs.

  • OOKA Hookah: Easy to use, stylish design, and perfect for beginners – but dependent on specific pre-filled pods/capsules, which can be expensive in the long run and limit airflow.
  • XKAH Pro: The most technically advanced solution compared to other systems – no pod dependency, freely selectable tobacco, smart heating technology with temperature control, and sleek design. For those seeking authentic hookah enjoyment with maximum control and modern features, the XKAH Pro offers the best price-performance ratio.

Buy Electric Hookahs at Moze?

Until now, we had no interest in adding electric hookahs to our range, as none had convinced us – neither in terms of quality nor smoking experience. That changed with the XKAH Pro, which combines high-quality materials, smart technology, and an authentic hookah experience.

The XKAH Pro sets new standards for the future of the hookah industry. That’s why we’ve consciously chosen this model – and can recommend it with complete confidence. Experience it for yourself and invest in your own XKAH Pro in the colorway of your choice.

FAQ: Frequently Asked Questions About Electric Hookahs
