By now, you already know what Elf Bars are – they are after all one most of popular vape brands in the world, offering a wide range of disposable vape models in different flavours, puff, counts, and battery life.
So, knowing how long an Elf Bar lasts will depend on the model that you’ve purchased. But, as mentioned earlier, you can get up to four days before you need to replace it.
To find out how long does an Elf Bar last, you will need to consider to following:
Per Battery
So, how long does Elf Bar battery last, generally? Due to e-liquid limits in the UK, batteries in our Elf Bars tend to be within the 300mAh – 550mAh range.
Obviously, the intensity of your use will impact how quickly the battery is depleted, but you can ordinarily expect between 1-4 days of use from an Elf Bar, with casual users usually having devices that last a little longer. There are Elf Bars sold in America with larger batteries. However, these cannot be stocked or sold by UK retailers.
| Elf Bar Model | Battery Capacity (mAh) | Rechargeable? | Days of Use |
| Elf Bar Cigalike | 280mAh | No | 1-2 Days |
| Elf Bar NC600 | 400mAh | No | 2-3 Days |
| Lost Mary AM600 | 550mAh | No | 2-4 Days |
| Elf Bar BC5000 Ultra (US only) | 650mAh | Yes | 6-8 Days |

Per Puff
So, how many puffs does an Elf Bar have? Well, disposable vapes like Elf Bars usually list an approximate puff count as a metric of how long you can expect them to work. As is the case with batteries outlined above, most UK devices are going to provide a similar estimated puff count.
| Elf Bar Model | Advertised Puff Count |
| Elf Bar 600 | 500 |
| Lost Mary BM600 | 600 |
| Lost Mary QM600 | 600 |
| Elf Bar Pi7000 (US Only) | 7000 |
In Days
Many vapers ask us how many days they can expect out of their disposable vapes, taking puffs, battery, and pre-filled e-liquid into account.
This mostly comes down to your intensity of use. There are many vapers who only puff for the occasional craving and others who chain-vape until the device is spent.
| Elf Bar Model | Puff Count | Battery Capacity | Days of Usage (Casual / Heavy Use) |
| Elf Bar Cigalike | 400 | 280mAh | 2 days / 1 day |
| Elf Bar 600 | 500 | 550mAh | 2 days / 1 day |
| Lost Mary QM600 | 600 | 550mAh | 4 days / 2 days |
| Elf Bar Hookah (US Only) | 5000 | 550mAh (rechargeable) | 20 days / 10 days |
What Affects Elf Bar Lifespan?
How long an Elf Bar lasts depends on a number of factors, from your usage frequency to the intensity of your draw. But even the way in which you store your Elf Bar can have an effect on the overall longevity of the device.
Vaping Frequency
If you’re just popping out back for the occasional puff or joining the smokers outside the pub for a few minutes, you’ll likely find that your UK Elf Bar disposable vape will last for 4-5 days of shelf life. Casual vaper use won’t drain the battery too quickly.On the other hand, those who are looking to replace a heavy smoking habit with Elf Bars can expect them to last 1-2 days, and it may be a better move to grab a refillable vape for the value alone.
Length of Draw
One aspect of Elf Bar vape devices that doesn’t get enough scrutiny is the fact that every vaper vapes differently. Due to the nic salt e-liquid used in Elf Bars that have a smooth throat hit, it’s easy to take long draws without discomfort. While casual vapers puffing on Elf Bars are more than likely to hit the estimated puff count, those who take big lung-filling inhales may find they get slightly less puffs than advertised.
Think of it like a journey planning app; it will tell you how long it takes to walk somewhere, but if you sprint the distance, you’ll find the journey ends faster than anticipated!
Storage
The batteries and e-liquid within Elf Bars can be affected by the way in which you store the device. As with traditional e-liquid and vape kits, we strongly advise that they are stored properly in a cool, dark place, as intense heat and direct sunlight aren’t good for battery life.
Similarly, cold weather can have a thickening effect on e-liquid, and you may find that Elf Bar vapes kept in a car overnight during winter may have a clogged coil inside weighed down by thick, jammy e-juice.
Another thing to consider is that once the device has been activated / puffed for the first time, the clock has effectively started on the battery. Taking one puff from an unfinished Elf Bar and putting it in a draw for a month may result in you coming back to a battery that slowly died while you were away.
An unopened Elf Bar vaping device can often last up to two years, which is the average time before unused disposable vapes expire.
FAQ
How can I make my Elf Bar last longer?
You can make your Elf Bar last longer by moderating the length of your inhales and trying to puff on it more like a cigarette. We all like a massive lungful of menthol blueberries, but heavy vaper use is going to deplete your battery and e-liquid much faster.
If you’re buying Elf Bars every day, definitely consider switching to a refillable, rechargeable kit, as doing so will save you a fortune.
How do you know when an Elf Bar is dying?
Your first indication that your Elf Bar is on the way out will be a reduced amount of vapour being emitted, either due to the battery starting to wither or the e-liquid inside beginning to dry out.
Most Elf Bars have an LED light that glows when it’s used, and this will start to blink when the battery is close to dead.
How do I know when my Elf Bar needs to be charged?
We’ve mentioned that Elf Bars sold in the UK are not rechargeable, due to the small batteries and e-liquid limits making it a superfluous feature.
Elf Bars sold in the United States will indicate a flagging battery with the same blinking light UK ones use to announce battery death, and there’ll ordinarily be a USB-C charging port on the base of the US devices.
There are a handful of rechargeable devices sold by Elf Bar in the UK, however these are either refillable systems or closed-pod vapes, neither of which are disposable devices.
Need More Help?
So, “how long Elf Bars last?,” an Elf Bar disposable vape lasts between 2-4 days. However, keep in mind that this is just an estimate. There are numerous factors that play into determining how long your disposable will give you. Intensity of use, strength of draw and storage are all important things to consider, though it can be said that even for very casual users it’s surprising if your new Elf Bar lasts longer than a week.
