Overview
This Elf Bar EP8000 review is a specification-based look at the rechargeable disposable vape listed on our store with a 15ml pre-filled tank, a 650mAh battery, a 1.2 ohm mesh coil and a choice of 20mg or 50mg nicotine. The maker rates it at 8,000 puffs and the listing offers 13 flavours. Everything below comes from the product listing, not from hands-on testing, and our editorial policy explains how we handle that.
This page takes a different angle from our earlier write-up of the 5 percent listing. Here the main question is how to choose between the two strengths and the 13 flavours on this listing, and what the listing does and does not tell you before you spend AED 40 or AED 350.

Elf Bar EP8000 review: quick verdict and who it suits
In short, the EP8000 is a sealed, rechargeable disposable for adults who already use nicotine and want published size figures. The listing gives a 15ml pre-filled tank, a 650mAh battery, USB Type-C charging, a 1.2 ohm mesh coil and a body of 88 x 44 x 22 mm. It is offered in 20mg and 50mg, in 13 flavours, as a single device or a box of 10.
The single device is listed at AED 40 and the box of 10 at AED 350. Among the disposables we compare below, that puts it at the same price as the Nasty Bar 8500 and the PURA Pro 12000, and AED 10 above the Maskking Apex 8000.
Who it suits. An adult who already uses nicotine, wants a rechargeable device with no buttons to press, and values knowing the tank and battery size before buying. The two strengths also let a user pick the level that matches their current habit instead of being locked into one.
Who should skip it. Anyone who does not already use nicotine, anyone who wants a screen showing battery or liquid level, and anyone looking for the lowest price. The listing describes no display, and the Maskking Apex lists a larger 18ml tank for AED 30.
Nicotine is addictive at any strength. We sell only to adults aged 21 and over, and UAE law may set a higher age limit.
Specifications from the listing
The listing gives a clear specification block, which is one of the better points of this product page. Brand is Elf Bar and the model is named as the EP8000 disposable vape. The puff capacity is stated as 8,000 puffs, nicotine strength as 20mg or 50mg, e-liquid volume as 15ml pre-filled, battery capacity as 650mAh rechargeable, charging as USB Type-C, coil as a 1.2 ohm mesh coil and size as 88 x 44 x 22 mm.
The 8,000 figure is the maker estimate of how many puffs that liquid should supply. It is a rating used to compare devices, not a measurement we have taken, and real use will differ with how long and how often a person draws.
The listing describes the device as draw-activated, which means you inhale from the mouthpiece to fire it and there is no button. It also says the device cannot be refilled, so when the liquid is used up the device is finished. There is no mention of adjustable airflow, power modes or a screen, so we do not describe any.
One inconsistency is worth knowing about. The listing text refers to both eleven flavours and 13 flavours. The flavour selector shows 13, and that is the number we use here.
Choosing between 20mg and 50mg
This is the decision that matters most on this listing, because the same device comes in two very different strengths. The listing names 20mg and 50mg and gives no further guidance on which suits whom, so we keep to what is stated and add general safety context.
Fifty milligrams per millilitre is the same as 5 percent, and it is a high strength. Twenty milligrams is 2 percent, the more moderate of the two options. If you are an adult who already uses nicotine and you are not sure which to pick, the lower strength is the more cautious starting point, and you can move up only if you have a clear reason. A person who has never used nicotine should not start with either.
The listing says the e-liquid is a nicotine salt formulation. Nicotine salts are commonly used in pre-filled disposables because they are often described as feeling smoother at a given strength, but the listing makes no promise about throat feel, and we have not tried it, so we cannot rate it. What we can say is that a higher strength delivers more nicotine with each puff, so the same 8,000 puff rating does not mean the same exposure at 20mg and 50mg.
For a wider view of the strengths and puff ranges on offer, see our disposable vape buying guide, which explains how puff ratings, nicotine strength and battery size fit together.
Thirteen flavours: how to choose
The listing names 13 flavours and gives a one-line description of each, which we summarise here by style rather than rating them, since we have not tasted them.
The fruit group is the largest. Black Raspberry is described as sweet and tangy, Blue Raspberry as tart with a refreshing finish, Double Mango as juicy and tropical, and Grape Cherry as rich grape with tart cherry. Kiwi Passion Fruit Guava is listed as an exotic tropical blend, Mango Peach Watermelon as a sweet fruit medley and Peach Mango as a smooth blend of the two fruits.
The icy group has four entries. Cola Ice is a cola flavour with a cool twist, Grape Ice pairs sweet grape with an icy menthol finish, Peach Ice is ripe peach with a cool finish and Strawberry Ice is fresh strawberry with a menthol touch. If you prefer no cooling effect, the plain Watermelon and the Watermelon Bubblegum entries are the straightforward fruit options.
Mesh coil, 15ml tank and battery
The coil is listed as a 1.2 ohm mesh coil. Mesh coils spread heat across a wide surface, and makers use them to aim for even heating and steady flavour. The listing does not publish a wattage or a puff test result, so we treat the coil as a stated design feature and nothing more.
The 15ml tank is a sizeable pre-filled volume. It is smaller than the 18ml on the Maskking Apex 8000 and the PURA Pro 12000, and it sits near the middle of the 13ml to 17ml range shown on the Nasty Bar 8500 listing.
The battery is 650mAh with USB Type-C charging. The listing explains the benefit as letting you use the full tank of liquid without the battery running out first, which is a common limit on non-rechargeable disposables. It gives no charge time and no hours-of-use figure, so we cannot tell you how long a charge lasts. With no screen, you will judge the end of the device by flavour and vapour rather than by a readout.
Rechargeable disposables contain a lithium battery. When the device is finished, dispose of it with care at a suitable collection point rather than in household waste, keep it away from heat, and keep it out of reach of children and pets. Never leave a charging device unattended.
Elf Bar EP8000 review: how this listing differs from the 5 percent one
Our site carries a second listing for a very similar Elf Bar device, and the two are easy to confuse, so we want to be clear about the difference. The earlier Elfbar EP 8000 review of the 5 percent listing covers a product that sells one strength, 5 percent, with a box of 10 option. This Elf Bar EP8000 review covers the listing that offers both 20mg and 50mg.
Both listings quote the same headline figures: 8,000 puffs, a 15ml tank, a 650mAh battery, USB Type-C and a 1.2 ohm mesh coil. The practical difference for a buyer is choice. On this listing you can pick 20mg for a more moderate strength or 50mg for the high one, while the other listing sells only 5 percent.
If you like the brand and want to see its other disposables, our Elf Bar brand page lists the range, and our Elf Bar 10000 review covers a higher-puff model from the same maker.
How it compares with other disposables
The table below sets this device beside three other disposables we list. Every figure comes from the product listing on this site, and we link each row to our review of that device. Puff figures are maker claims, not measurements.
| Disposable | Puffs (maker claim) | Nicotine | Tank | Battery | Screen | Price (AED) |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Elf Bar EP8000 (this review) | 8,000 | 20mg or 50mg | 15ml | 650mAh, USB-C | None listed | 40 |
| Maskking Apex 8000 | 8,000+ | 20mg, 50mg | 18ml | 600mAh, Type-C | None listed | 30 |
| Nasty Bar 8500 | 8,500 | 20mg or 50mg | 13-17ml | 500-650mAh, Type-C | LED screen | 40 |
| PURA Pro 12000 | 12,000 | 20mg or 50mg | 18ml | 600mAh, Type-C | OLED screen | 40 |
Read the table with care. The EP8000 sits at the same price as the Nasty Bar 8500 and the PURA Pro 12000, but it is the only one of the four with a stated 15ml tank and 650mAh battery together with no screen. The Nasty Bar and the PURA Pro both list a display for battery and liquid level, and the PURA Pro lists a larger puff figure. The Maskking Apex is the cheapest and lists the largest tank of the four.
UAE rules, nicotine strength and safe use
Electronic nicotine products sold in the UAE fall under a national standard, and the reference text is available as the UAE.S 5030:2018 standard (MoIAT). The Ministry of Industry and Advanced Technology publishes current information on its official website, and the conformity scheme that applies to these products is known as ECAS.
Rules on nicotine strength, flavours and device size have changed over time, and we cannot confirm for you which strengths apply at the moment you order. This device is offered at 20mg and 50mg, so confirm the strength you choose is permitted before you buy. Check the current position with the regulator instead of relying on any blog post, including this one.
We sell only to adults aged 21 and over, and UAE law may set a higher age limit. See our age verification page for how we check this.
The NHS says vaping is less harmful than smoking but not risk-free, and that it is not for people who do not smoke or for children. Keep devices, pods and liquids away from children and pets. This post is general product information, not medical or legal advice, and we make no claim that vaping helps anyone quit smoking.
Price, delivery and final verdict
The single device is listed at AED 40 and the box of 10 at AED 350. Prices and stock can change, so check the Elf Bar EP8000 listing for the current figure.
| Pros | Cons |
|---|---|
| 15ml tank and 650mAh battery stated | No screen for battery or liquid |
| 20mg and 50mg options | 50mg is a high strength |
| 13 flavours listed | AED 10 more than the Maskking Apex |
| 1.2 ohm mesh coil, USB Type-C | Puff figure is a maker claim, not a test |
Delivery in the UAE. Dubai, Sharjah and Ajman orders are delivered in about 2 hours, 10am to 11pm, 7 days a week, and you can pay by cash, card or bank transfer. Other emirates are served by courier within 24 hours, Monday to Saturday, with cash on delivery or bank transfer. Delivery is free above AED 350 and a flat AED 30 below that, so an order of exactly AED 350 pays AED 30. The minimum order is AED 100, which means a single AED 40 device falls below it. Read the full terms on our vape delivery page and our delivery and payment terms.
Our verdict. On the listing alone, this Elf Bar EP8000 review comes out balanced. The device offers a stated 15ml tank, a 650mAh battery, Type-C charging and a choice of two strengths and 13 flavours, with no screen and a mid-range price. It suits an adult nicotine user who wants those published figures. If you are new to nicotine, do not start.
Frequently asked questions
Is the Elf Bar EP8000 rechargeable?
Yes. The listing states a built-in 650mAh rechargeable battery with USB Type-C charging. It does not give a charging time, so we cannot say how long a full charge takes.
Which nicotine strengths does it come in?
The listing offers 20mg and 50mg. Fifty milligrams is a high strength, and the lower option is the more moderate. Confirm that the strength you choose is permitted in the UAE before ordering.
Can I refill it or change the coil?
No. The listing describes it as a rechargeable disposable that cannot be refilled, and the 1.2 ohm mesh coil is built in.
How many flavours are there and what do the sizes mean?
The flavour selector shows 13 flavours, although one line of the listing text says eleven. The device measures 88 x 44 x 22 mm, and the 8,000 puff figure is a maker rating, not something we have measured.
