Overview
This Nasty Bar 8500 review looks at a rechargeable disposable vape that the maker rates at 8,500 puffs, sold in 20mg and 50mg with an LED screen and 12 flavours. It is a specification-based review: every figure comes from our product listing, and we did not run hands-on trials, so we do not describe how it feels, tastes or lasts in daily use. It is written for adults only, because nicotine is addictive and our store sells to customers aged 21 and over.

Nasty Bar 8500 review: quick verdict and who it suits
The short version is that the Nasty Bar 8500 is a mid-range rechargeable disposable whose main selling point is its LED screen. The listing describes a 13ml to 17ml e-liquid capacity, a 500mAh to 650mAh rechargeable battery, Type-C USB charging, a mesh coil and draw activation, which means there are no buttons to press. It comes in two nicotine strengths, 20mg and 50mg, and in 12 flavours. A single unit is listed at AED 40 and a box of 10 is listed at AED 380.
It suits adult nicotine users who already know which strength they use and who like to see battery and e-liquid levels at a glance instead of guessing when a sealed device is about to run out. It also suits shoppers who want a choice of strengths from one product page rather than comparing several separate listings.
You should look elsewhere if you do not already use nicotine, if you want exact tank and battery figures, or if you want a very small device. The listing gives ranges for the tank and the battery and says they vary by model or region, and its own pros and cons note a larger body than basic disposables and a cooling effect that may feel strong to some users.
Because this is a specification-based review, treat it as a careful reading of the listing and not as proof of how any single unit behaves. Our editorial policy explains how we separate what a listing states from what we have not verified, and the comparison table below puts four disposables side by side using only listing figures.
Specifications from the product listing
The technical specification block on the product page is short, and it is worth quoting in full because everything else in this article builds on it. The brand is Nasty. The puff capacity is 8,500 puffs, which is a maker figure and not a measurement. The e-liquid volume is given as 13ml to 17ml, and the listing adds that it varies by model or region. The battery is 500mAh to 650mAh and rechargeable, charging is by Type-C USB, the coil technology is a mesh coil, activation is draw-activated and the indicator is an LED screen for battery and e-liquid levels.
Two points deserve attention. First, the ranges. A buyer who wants to know exactly how much liquid or how large a battery is in the unit they receive cannot find that on the page, because the listing gives a band and not a single number. Second, the puff figure. A rated puff count is a manufacturer estimate that depends on how the device is used, so we treat 8,500 as a label and not as a promise, and we avoid translating it into days or weeks of use.
The listing also describes the device as compact, with a draw-activation design that removes the need for buttons, and a Type-C rechargeable battery. It does not publish dimensions, weight, resistance in ohms or airflow details, so we do not comment on them. If you are new to comparing disposables, our disposable vape buying guide explains how to read these labels and what they leave out.
What the LED screen shows and what it does not
The LED screen is the feature the listing puts first. According to the specification block, it shows battery and e-liquid levels. In a sealed device that cannot be refilled, that is useful information: you can see whether the battery or the liquid is likely to run out first, and you can decide when to recharge instead of waiting for the device to stop working.
The listing also contains a list of key selling points that mentions a puff counter and a health tracking system for monitoring usage time. Those two lines do not appear in the technical specification, and a similar disposable listing on our site states that a puff counter is not applicable, so we cannot confirm them. We rely only on the specification block, which names battery and e-liquid levels, and we suggest you do the same when you decide whether a screen is worth paying for.
A screen also changes how you handle the device. Because the battery is rechargeable through Type-C, you can top it up with an ordinary phone cable and adapter. Charge it on a hard surface, unplug it when it is full, and never leave it charging under a pillow or on a sofa. Do not leave any vape in a parked car in UAE summer heat, and take a finished device to an e-waste or battery recycling point instead of household rubbish. Stop using a device that swells, leaks or becomes unusually hot, and keep every device away from children and pets.
Nicotine strengths: 20mg and 50mg
The product page offers two strengths, 20mg and 50mg, chosen when you pick a variation. In percentage terms those are 2% and 5%. The difference is large: the higher option contains two and a half times as much nicotine as the lower one, and the listing itself describes the nicotine delivery as strong. Nicotine is addictive at any level, and a rated puff count should never be treated as a target to reach.
If you are an adult who already uses nicotine and you are unsure which option to pick, the lower strength is the more moderate of the two, and starting with the higher one is not sensible for anyone without existing tolerance. The listing says the 20mg option is there for regions with strict limits, which is a reminder that rules differ and that you should check what applies to you before you buy. We cannot confirm from a listing which strength is permitted for sale or use at any given time, so see the UAE section below and the official sources linked there.
The NHS guidance on vaping says that vaping is less harmful than smoking but is not risk free, and that it is not recommended for people who do not smoke or for young people. We make no claim that a product helps anyone quit smoking, and nothing in this article is medical advice.
Flavours, pack sizes and ordering options
The listing names 12 flavours, and the product page includes a short description of each. Peach Ice is described as sweet peach with a cool finish, and Double Apple as red and green apple with a mild twist. Dry Tobacco is described as tobacco notes with a clean throat feel, and Watermelon Ice as watermelon with light ice. Kiwi Passion Fruit Guava is a tropical blend, Honey Dew is a mild melon with soft sweetness and Red Energy is an energy drink profile with a cool tone.
The remaining flavours are Mango, Pineapple Ice, Strawberry Ice, Aloe Grape and Berry and Grape. Those descriptions come from the listing, and we have not tasted the flavours, so we cannot rank them. Several names include the word Ice, and the listing admits that the cooling intensity may feel strong for some users, so cooling-sensitive adults may prefer Dry Tobacco, Honey Dew or Mango.
Each flavour can be chosen at either strength, and in two pack sizes: a single piece at AED 40, or a box of 10 at AED 380. Whatever you choose, check the strength and pack-size dropdowns before adding the device to your basket, so that the combination in your basket is the one you intended.
Remember that our minimum order is AED 100, so a single AED 40 device on its own falls below it. The next sections explain delivery, and the full terms are on our delivery and payment terms page.
How it compares with other disposables
The table below compares the Nasty Bar 8500 with three other rechargeable disposables on our store. Every row was checked against the live product listing, and any detail a listing does not give is left out instead of guessed. The first row is this product.
| Disposable | Puffs (maker figure) | Nicotine | Battery | E-liquid | Price (AED) |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Nasty Bar 8500 (this review) | 8,500 | 20mg or 50mg | 500-650mAh, Type-C | 13-17ml (varies) | 40 |
| Maskking Apex 8000 | 8,000+ | 20mg, 50mg | 600mAh, Type-C | 18ml | 30 |
| Pod Salt Pearl Pro 10000 | Up to 10,000 | 20mg (2%) nic-salt | 650mAh, Type-C | 12mL | 45 |
| Smooth 10000 | 10,000 (Normal Mode) | 20mg (2%) | 600mAh, USB-C | 16ml | 45 |
Reading the table, the Nasty Bar 8500 sits in the middle of the group on rated puff count, and its specification block is the one that names an LED screen for battery and liquid levels. It is also the only one of the four that gives its tank and battery as ranges. The Maskking Apex 8000 lists a fixed 18ml and 600mAh at a lower price, while our Pod Salt Pearl Pro 10000 review and Smooth 10000 review cover two higher rated devices at AED 45 each.

UAE rules, age limits and safe use
Electronic nicotine products sold in the UAE fall under a national standard, and you can read the text on the WHO-hosted copy of the UAE.S 5030:2018 standard (MoIAT). The standard is administered by the Ministry of Industry and Advanced Technology, whose website is at moiat.gov.ae. You will also see the Emirates Conformity Assessment Scheme, usually shortened to ECAS, mentioned in connection with these products, and the ministry site is the place to check what it requires.
Rules on nicotine strength, flavours and device size for disposable products have changed over time, and we cannot confirm every strength on a listing from a blog post. This product is offered at 20mg and 50mg, so confirm that the strength you intend to buy is permitted before you order. Rules can change, so check current limits with the ministry instead of relying on any article, including this one.
Our shop sells to adults aged 21 and over only, and UAE law may set a higher age limit in some circumstances, so the age that applies to you may be above 21. See our age verification page for how we handle this. Nicotine products are not for non-smokers, young people, or anyone who is pregnant or breastfeeding.
Keep devices, batteries and liquids away from children and pets, because swallowing or chewing a disposable is a poisoning risk. This article is general product information and not medical or legal advice, and it makes no claim that vaping is safe or helps anyone stop smoking.
Price, delivery and final verdict
The listed price is AED 40 for a single piece and AED 380 for a box of 10. Prices and stock can change, so check the Nasty Bar 8500 listing for the current figure. Delivery is free above AED 350. An order of exactly AED 350 pays the AED 30 charge, and orders below AED 350 pay a flat AED 30. The minimum order is AED 100, so a single AED 40 device needs other items in the basket to qualify.
Orders in Dubai, Sharjah and Ajman are delivered in about 2 hours between 10am and 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. The pages on vape delivery in Dubai and on delivery and payment give the full terms.
| Pros | Cons |
|---|---|
| LED screen for battery and e-liquid levels | Tank and battery given as ranges |
| 20mg and 50mg options | 50mg is a high strength |
| Mesh coil and Type-C charging | Larger body than basic disposables |
| 12 flavours listed | Cooling may feel strong |
| Single piece or box of 10 | Sealed and not refillable |
Our verdict is balanced. The Nasty Bar 8500 is a sensible choice for an adult nicotine user who values an LED screen showing battery and liquid levels and who wants two strengths and 12 flavours at AED 40. Its weak points are the tank and battery ranges, the higher 50mg strength and the larger body. If you are new to nicotine, do not start. That is the bottom line of this Nasty Bar 8500 review.
Frequently asked questions
How many puffs does the Nasty Bar 8500 have?
The maker rates it at 8,500 puffs. That figure is a manufacturer claim and depends on how the device is used, so we treat it as a label and not as a guaranteed amount.
Is the Nasty Bar 8500 rechargeable?
Yes. The listing states a 500mAh to 650mAh rechargeable battery with Type-C USB charging. The device is sealed, so it cannot be refilled once the e-liquid is finished.
Which strength should I choose, 20mg or 50mg?
The listing offers both. The 20mg option is the more moderate, and the 50mg option is a high strength that is not suited to anyone new to nicotine. Confirm that your chosen strength is permitted in the UAE before buying.
What does the LED screen show?
According to the specification block, it shows battery and e-liquid levels. In this Nasty Bar 8500 review we rely on that block alone, because other lines in the listing mention a puff counter that the specification does not.
