Elf Bar AF5000 Review
Elf Bar has been a strong contender in the vaping market since its rise to fame in 2018. Benefits including ease of use and compact design have all turned Elf Bar products like the Elf Bar 600, the Elf Bar Crystal C600 into some of the most recognisable in the UK vaping market. These benefits come together in the Elf Bar AF5000, which is designed to provide users with 5000 puffs per kit, without compromising on flavour delivery.
In this review, we consider what’s got everyone talking about this iconic Elf Bar product, and whether or not the Elf Bar AF500 could be right for you.
Elf Bar AF5000: An Overview
The Elf Bar AF5000 refill is a trademark device that’s credited with Elf Bar's largest puff count for the UK market. Standout features include a 2 ml fixed tank (which ensures this product is TPD compliant), and an additional 10 ml refill container that contributes towards the AF5000’s biggest claim – the ability to reach 5000 puffs using a singular disposable device.
This is a level of usage that exceeds even other high puff-count disposables, like Lost Mary’s DM1200. It provides users with the ability to spend less and enjoy a far easier vaping experience overall. That ease is only intensified by the fact that the AF5000 is chargeable using a USB Type-C charging port, making this the first complete crossover between the ease of a disposable device, and the longevity of a chargeable alternative.
Elf Bar AF5000: How to Use
The Elf Bar AF5000 comes with a pre-filled 10 ml reservoir of 20 mg e-liquid that’s available in 15 different flavours that include traditional tobacco, as well as more exotic options.
The AF5000 achieves its high puff count by allowing users to feed their 10 ml reservoirs into a 2 ml fixed tank at the top of their vape. Benefits like the addition of a QUAQ mesh coil ensure flavour strength even with this long-lasting usage.
The AF5000 is simple and intuitive to fill using basic steps such as pulling out the grey silicone on the bottom of your device and lining your refill up with the groves on the AF5000 to install it. Once your AF5000 is filled, you can use it easily in the following ways –
- - Wait around ten minutes for your coil to fully saturate before vaping.
- - The AF5000 is draw-activated, so simply inhale through the mouthpiece to make it work.
- - Recharge your device using the USB Type-C port located at the bottom when the LED lights on the side prompt you to do so.
Elf Bar AF5000 Refill Review
Including an additional 10 ml of e-liquid is a large part of the reason why the AF5000 is such a long-lasting disposable device. However, it also requires users to consider how to refill Elf Bar ASF5000 2 ml device reservoirs over time. Luckily, Elf Bar has applied its famed use of ease to even this application, meaning it couldn’t be simpler to refill your AF5000.
In fact, the AF5000’s integrated design eliminates awkward refills and the need to undo your device at any stage. Instead, after installing your refill during setup, you simply need to tip your device upside down for around 10 seconds to refill it. While you may need to complete this process several times before your e-liquid runs out, this is certainly one of the easiest refillable vapes right now.

Design
The AF5000 is 9cmx4cm, making it a neat, compact vape that’s both pocket-friendly and comfortable to hold. By integrating a refill reservoir within this design, Elf Bar has created a product that’s both attractive and convenient, a benefit they’ve enhanced with bright flavour-matching colour selections. The plastic body of the AF5000 is slightly curved, allowing for self-filling when your device is not in use, and making this both an attractive, and efficient, addition to the overall design.
Battery Life
On the surface, there’s nothing overly special about the 650 mAh battery included with an AF5000 device, and this will last you roughly as long as any other 600-puff disposable. However, the AF5000’s battery is unique in that it’s rechargeable using a type-c USB port on the base of the device. It’s possible to reach full charge again within just half an hour of charging, making this a quick and convenient way to get significantly more puff without the risk of getting caught short while you’re out and about.Elf Bar AF5000 Flavours
