Elf Bar

Elf Bars are vape kits made by the Chinese-owned company Elf Bar. Rich in flavour and usually colourful in design, these pod kits have long been a popular choice for vapers worldwide since the days of single-use disposables. Prefilled kits are available in a wide choice of flavours, which include juicy fruit, icy menthol and rich tobacco options, catering to a broad range of tastes. Kits include the big-puff Elf Bar Dual 10K, the Elf Bar 4in1, and the Elf Bar 600, which are all low-maintenance, TPD-compliant and deliver a satisfying mouth-to-lung vape. These devices make a great choice for ex-smokers looking to make the switch, and are ideal for beginners.

This normally depends on your individual vaping habits, the number of puffs, and the size of the battery. Devices like the Elf Bar 600, Elfa Pro and Elfx Ultra will last around a day for heavier vapers, while moderate to light vapers can expect two to three days’ usage before requiring a pod change. The Elf Bar Dual 10K can generally last between two to three weeks before needing pod replacements, and the Elf Bar Plus 50 can last up to a month thanks to its multiple pods and refill containers. The Elf Bar 4-in-1 kit will last longer than a week due its four pod system. For the Elf Bar Mate 500 and Elfliq Elfa Turbo, moderate users may get two to three days’ usage.

This entirely depends on the kit itself, as each model uses pods with their own individual puff count. Here’s a breakdown of the puff totals for each prefilled kit:

• Elfbar Elfa 600 Pod Kit - Up to 600 Puffs
• Elfbar Elfa Pod Kit - Up to 600 Puffs
• Elfbar ELFA Pro Pod Kit - Up to 600 Puffs
• Elfbar 4in1 Vape Kit - Up to 3200 Puffs
• Elfbar Mate 500 Pod Vape Kit - Up to 600 Puffs
• Elfliq Elfa Turbo Pod Kit - Up to 600 Puffs
• ElfBar Plus 50 Kit - Up to 50,000 Puffs

Prefilled Elf Bars contain 2ml of 20mg (2%) nic salt e-liquid, totalling 40 milligrams of nicotine. Under UK TPD regulations, this is the maximum nicotine strength permitted in prefilled vape products. The nicotine salt used is designed to absorb into the blood stream quicker, resulting in faster craving relief and a noticeably smooth throat sensation.

No, the Elf Bar AF5000 is a closed disposable vape, meaning it can’t be refilled. The AF500 is no longer permitted for sale under the UK’s ban on single-use disposables in June 2025. Its alternative, the rechargeable Elf Bar AF5500, uses prefilled pods which can be replaced once empty of e-liquid. To replace the pods, simply pull apart the current pod and refill container from your device, and remove the new ones from its packaging. Next, insert the new pod and refill container into your kit, with the pod going in at the top and refill container being pushed up at the bottom. Turn your device and give it a shake to let the e-liquid saturate the coil, before pulling out the silicone plug from the mouthpiece and taking a puff!

Yes, Elf Bars are recyclable and due to their lithium batteries and electrical components, shouldn’t be disposed of in general waste. To recycle your Elf Bar properly, it should be taken to an electrical waste bin, vape shop or in-store supermarket bin. This protects the environment, and reduces the risk of fire hazards caused by lithium battery disposal.

The safest ways to dispose of an Elf Bar would be to take it to the nearest designated recycling bin in your local supermarket, or a household waste recycling centre. It can also be  a vape shop, as they’re legally required to accept old vapes for recycling. Due to their lithium batteries and other electrical components, vapes should never be discarded in general waste in order to save the risk of fires, and to protect the environment.

Elf Bar has a range of refillable pods available, which are primarily used with refillable pod kits like the Elfa 600 device, the Elfa Pro, Elfliq Elfa Turbo and Elfx Mega kits. Refillable pods include:

• Elfbar Elfa Refillable Pods - These are available in a 1.1ohm coil resistance, delivering a mouth-to-lung vape, while working best with 50VG/50PG nic salts or other e-liquids. These pods are compatible with Elf Bar Elfa, Elfa Pro and Elf Bar 600 devices.
• Elfbar ELFX Pods - Available in 0.6ohm and 0.8ohm coil resistances, providing a restricted-direct-to-lung and mouth-to-lung vape. These are compatible with the Elfx, Elfx Pro, Elfx Mini and Elfx Pro Classic devices. These perform best with 50VG/50PG nic salts or other e-liquids.
• Elfbar ELFX Mega Pods - These come in 0.6ohm and 0.8ohm coil resistances, and provide a restricted-direct-to-lung and mouth-to-lung experience. They are compatible exclusively with the Elfbar Elfx Mega Kit. To experience the best results, these should be paired with 50VG/50PG nicotine salts or other e-liquids.
• Elfbar Elfa Turbo Replacement Pods - Available in a 0.8ohm or 1.1ohm coil resistance and delivering a mouth-to-lung vape. These are compatible with all devices across the Elfbar Elfa range, and work best with 50VG/50PG nic salts or other e-juices.
  

This depends on the device, but an Elf Bar 600 contains 2ml of 20mg (2% nicotine) nic salt e-liquid, considered to contain the nicotine equivalent of around 50-60 cigarettes. Kits that use multiple pods include a higher nicotine total. The Elfbar 4-in1, for example, has four 2ml pod options, totalling the equivalent of around 160-200 cigarettes per kit. It’s important to note that although the nicotine content sounds high, vapes contain significantly less chemicals than cigarettes, and are generally considered safer than tobacco products.
