Elf bar 600’s are not rechargeable and contain an encased battery that you dispose of when the device dies. However different models like the Elf Bar Mate 500 and Elfa Pro kit can be recharged. These devices that can be recharged offer a lot of flexibility and better affordability. If you attempt to recharge a sealed device you can cause huge amounts of damage, like a fire or an explosion and can cause major injuries as it’s better to be safe than sorry. The kits and batteries mentioned are designed to be recharged and safely transfer electricity so you can enjoy your kit the way it was designed.
Articles and videos are floating around on how to dissemble your Elf Bar and recharge the battery, how to refill your elf bar, however, the batteries are cheaply made and not designed to be capable of recharging, and the cotton and coil inside are made to deteriorate after all the liquid has been vaped.
The most common form of Elf Bar is 2%, meaning there is 20mg of nicotine concentrate in the Elf Bar. This is the highest concentration allowed legally inside of e-liquid, making it great for people who have just stopped smoking. Some people consider 20mg quite high, and many people find cutting down to 10mg and even 6mg freebase e-liquid. Some Elf Bars come in 0mg or 10mg strengths but aren’t available everywhere as there’s not much demand for these devices. This is because when people want to cut down their nicotine intake they tend to buy a refillable kit and use 10mg nic salts which saves them a lot of money in the long run, and they can try many different, high-quality e-liquids. If you find you’re having headaches or feeling nauseous using 2% (20mg) Elf Bars, it could mean you’re receiving too much nicotine and your body doesn’t require that much to get a satisfying hit.
Yes, you can buy Elf Bar’s very own e-liquid, Elfliq. Available in 10mg and 20mg strengths, Elfliq juice contains the same flavours found inside the Elf Bar 600 disposables. Elfliq was made by Elfbar to be more environmentally friendly and allow people to explore different nicotine strengths and get better value for their money. Elfliq can be used in empty Elfbar Mate 500, or any refillable pod device like the Xros, Caliburn, and more. All of the beloved flavours are featured in this range too.
It’s hard to gauge due to the different vaping and smoking habits of people, but on average 2ml of liquid inside a disposable lasts around 20 cigarettes worth. Some people believe that it can be the equivalent of up to 48 cigarettes, but it entirely depends on the strength of the tobacco the user is used to smoking, the length of the draw, and how often it’s vaped. People who have switched to vaping often wonder how long their disposable will last them equivalent to a pack of cigarettes, but the way you vape and smoke are completely different. An elf bar may last you as long as 20 cigarettes, however, it may contain nicotine equivalent to 48 cigarettes as you may be a heavy user or use strong tobacco, meaning you need more nicotine in a shorter amount of time.
An Elf Bar disposable device contains 600 puffs. This can vary depending on how long you draw on the vape, but on average it will last you 600 puffs. The time it takes to vape 600 puffs varies from person to person, but once you’ve used your first Elfbar you’ll know personally for sure. You may have noticed there are devices available that claim to have thousands of puffs, however, this is only possible due to the manufacturers putting over 10ml of e-liquid into the devices which is illegal and unsafe. Nicotine can not be inside a closed device if it exceeds 2ml. The pods that fit into the Elf Bar Mate 500 contain 500 puffs, and the pods that fit into the Elfa kit is 600 puffs.
Elf Bars are tested by the TPD regulations and are considered just as safe as any other e-liquid available to purchase in the UK. Only Elf Bars containing nicotine with 600 puffs are legal to sell in the UK, so any device offering over 600 puffs, whether it’s Elf Bar branded or not, is illegal and hasn’t been tested against regulations. This means they could contain unknown chemicals, and they do not comply with UK TPD law. Any Elf Bar product sold by us is an official, authentic product that has been tested and approved for sale in the UK by the UK Government. Elf Bars contain the same makeup of ingredients as e-liquid used to refill a tank. This consists of vegetable glycerine, propylene glycol, natural and artificial flavours, and nicotine. Elfbars contain e-liquid made in China, we always recommend using UK-made e-liquid in a pod kit as the best alternative.
No, Elf Bar 600 devices were not designed to be refilled, and there are strict warnings against this. It is dangerous to open a device with a battery that was not designed that way. Elfbars contain cotton, like every other coil, that is saturated in e-liquid. This liquid vaporises when heated and creates the vapour you inhale. Cotton has a lifespan, and once this lifespan is up it’s designed to be discarded. If you’re filling up a tank (or trying to refill an Elfbar) and the cotton is burned and over-used. It’s better to purchase a new disposable or purchase replaceable coils so you can change it over once it seemed burnt.
Elf bars will range in lifespan depending on how heavy you vape. The average person who quits smoking 10 or fewer cigarettes a day’s elf bar will last approximately 2 days. For a heavy user who smoked up to 30 a day, you can expect your elf bar to last a day or less. This is because they are filled will 2ml of e-liquid, which is usually equivalent to 20 cigarettes. Also, if you're a heavier user you’ll need more nicotine to keep your cravings at bay.
