The Ultimate Guide To Elf Bars

Elf Bar disposables work the same way as all e-cigarettes. Each device contains a battery, a coil and e-liquid - the coil is wrapped in cotton which soaks up the e-liquid. As you inhale, the battery heats the coil, which turns the e-liquid into vapour. Prefilled pod devices work in the same way; the e-liquid is just contained in the pod which is then attached to the device.

Elf Bars are known for being incredibly easy to use, with little to no maintenance required, whichever device you choose. Disposable Elf Bars can be used straight out of the box; simply inhale them to activate the device and enjoy. Once the device is empty, simply dispose of it and move on to a new one.

For refillable Elf Bars, the only maintenance needed is switching out an empty pod when it's finished and replacing it with a full one.

For the larger puff device (Elfbar AF5000), it’s a simple case of; unboxing your device and removing the sticker, unplugging the rubber stopper from the liquid chamber, unscrewing the liquid cap to insert the bottle into the chamber, be sure to use the guide rails of the device to ensure a secure seal when inserting the liquid.

Disposable Elf Bars such as the Elf Bar 600 and the 600 V2 cannot be refilled; once the device is empty, you simply replace it. If you are using an Elf Bar pod device, the empty pod can be removed and replaced when needed. The Elf Bar AF5000 refills itself using the 10ml pod that comes with the kit. Simply slide the refill container into place along the side, ensuring it is in line and fully installed within the main device. Turn the device upside down for 10 seconds to fill up the pod, then continue vaping.

Yes. Disposable Elf Bars are designed to last 1-2 days, and you will know when your device is nearing its end. The flavour tends to deteriorate as you approach the end of the lifespan, as does the amount of vapour produced. Elf Bars also have an LED light that will flash to indicate when the device has run out of liquid.

Elf Bars should be disposed of responsibly when they run out. Vapers should recycle their disposable vapes at their nearest electrical recycling point where possible. Visit Recycle Your Vapes for more information.

E-cigarettes should only be used by people trying to quit smoking, as nicotine is an addictive substance. Elf Bars should not cause any unique side effects; however, if you do experience any headaches, nausea or a sore throat, you should stop vaping until the symptoms subside. If they persist, try switching to a lower-strength nicotine device.

Each Elf Bar disposable contains 2ml of 20mg nicotine-salt liquid. The liquid itself is made from premium ingredients: Propylene Glycol (PG), Vegetable Glycerin (VG), water, flavourings and nicotine. Unlike traditional cigarettes, Elf Bars do not contain any harmful chemicals, tobacco or tar.

All Elf Bar products use nicotine-salt liquid rather than standard freebase nicotine. Nic-salt is designed to deliver a much smoother throat hit and absorb into the body faster, making it an excellent option for those looking to satisfy their nicotine cravings.

The range of flavours Elf Bar offers is one of the largest on the vaping market, with a range that spans across multiple categories including fruits, sodas, menthols, tobaccos and candies, there really is something for every taste preference. The fruit range features some of the most popular flavours available including Blueberry, Strawberry Banana and Watermelon, with the soda range including the likes of Pink Lemonade, Blue Razz Lemonade and Cherry Cola. If menthols are your thing, Elf Bar offer fruity flavours with an icy blast finish including Strawberry Ice and Banana Ice, as well as a plain and simple tobacco offering which features the likes of Cream Tobacco.

Elf Bar also offer an extensive selection of their best selling flavours in 10ml nic salt e liquid bottles. Each bottle has a 50PG/50VG mix and contains either 10 mg (1%) or 20mg (2%) nicotine content depending on your preference. Popular flavours in this range include Sour Apple, Grape and Kiwi Passionfruit Guava, which are perfect for use in electronic vaping devices and refillable pods.

Disposable vapes are measured by their puff count, which is the number of times you can inhale on the device before it’s empty. A standard Elf Bar 600 disposable delivers approximately 600 puffs, the equivalent of around 20 cigarettes. Newer devices, such as the Elf Bar AF5000, can deliver up to 5000 puffs thanks to the innovative refillable pod system. The exact number of puffs per device will vary depending on the individual’s vaping habits; heavier smokers may find that their Elf Bar runs out a lot quicker than a lighter smoker.

Disposable Elf Bars, such as the 600 or the 600 V2, offer the equivalent of 20 cigarettes, making them a cost-effective option for those looking to quit smoking. For long-term vapers, there may be better options than disposables when it comes to saving money, with refillable pod devices or rechargeable vape kits offering better value. Vapers who prefer the convenience of disposables should take advantage of multi-buy deals and discounts that often work out a lot cheaper than buying individual devices. Buying in bulk also ensures that you can sample a wide range of flavours, which is perfect for getting a good introduction to the Elf Bar brand.

Elf Bars typically come in 20mg nicotine strength; however, it is possible to find 10mg strength Elf Bars across the majority of their devices. The 20mg strength is the highest in the UK, making it fully TPD compliant.

Elf Bar is the UK’s leading disposable vape brand, setting the standard for single-use vapes worldwide. With so many new devices and brands popping up all the time, Elf Bar has retained the top spot thanks to continuous innovation and new flavour blends being introduced all the time. The slim, sleek design of the Elf Bar 600 and the Elf Bar 600 V2 is perfect for those transitioning from smoking to vaping. Those who prefer the compact box design may find a better fit in another brand under the Elf Bar umbrella, Lost Mary.

Yes. Elf Bars are 100% legal to buy in the UK for anyone over the age of 18. They comply with all regulations set out by the Tobacco Products Directive (TPD) regarding nicotine strength and capacity. Like all popular vape brands, counterfeit devices flood the market, so it is important to ensure you only purchase genuine Elf Bars. Any Elf Bar with more than 20mg of nicotine is likely to be an illegal, counterfeit vape.

If your Elf Bar isn’t producing any vapour, it is likely that either the battery or the e-liquid has run out. If this is the case, switch to a new device. If a new Elf Bar stops producing vapour, the device could be faulty, and you should contact your retailer for assistance.

If you start to experience a burnt taste from your vape, the e-liquid has likely run out, and the wicking material around the coil is starting to burn. To make sure there is no liquid left in the device, turn it upside down for a few seconds. If there is no change, switch to a new device.

If your Elf Bar isn’t working, either the battery is dead, or you’re out of e-liquid. If yours is a new device, contact your retailer for assistance, as the device may be faulty.

Elf Bar disposable vapes are supposed to be leakproof; however, leaks can occur if the device is dropped or damaged. If the liquid is leaking out of your Elf Bar, stop using it immediately to avoid swallowing any e-liquid. Dispose of the device safely and switch over to a new one.

Elf Bar disposable vapes can feel warm if used excessively, and we recommend taking regular breaks between vaping to allow the battery to cool down. If your Elf Bar feels very hot, the battery could be malfunctioning; if this is the case, you should dispose of the device immediately and move on to a new one.

While the long-term effects of vaping are yet to be studied, it is proven to be 95% safer than smoking traditional cigarettes. Elf Bars are fully TPD compliant and don’t contain any of the harmful chemicals found in cigarettes. It is important to note that Elf Bars should only be used by those wanting to quit smoking as they contain nicotine, a highly addictive substance.

Yes. Vaping is proven to be one of the most effective tools to help quit smoking, and it is recommended by Public Health England. Vaping alone is usually not enough to quit smoking; it is important to ensure you have plenty of support around you to really kick the habit.
