The vaping market in Dubai has transformed into a highly regulated, sophisticated, and vast industry. Since the UAE government legalized and standardized the sale of electronic cigarettes and vaping products under strict Emirates Authority for Standardization and Metrology (ESMA) regulations, consumers have been flooded with choices.

Navigating the massive array of vape shops in areas like Karama, Marina, and Deira, or browsing through authorized online platforms, can be overwhelming. Choosing the “best” vape is not about finding the most expensive device; it is about finding the device that matches your lifestyle, your experience level, and your specific consumption goals.

To select the perfect device in Dubai’s unique market, you need to evaluate a few critical pillars.

1. Understand the Legal Framework and Product Authenticity

Before looking at device specifications, you must understand how Dubai’s local market operates. This knowledge ensures you make a safe, legal, and authentic purchase.

[Look for ESMA/Emirates Quality Mark (EQM)] ---> Confirms Strict Lab Testing
                                              ---> Guarantees Authentic Nicotine/E-liquid
                                              ---> Ensures Battery & Hardware Safety

Look for ESMA Certification

Every legitimate vaping product sold in Dubai must comply with strict federal regulations. Look for products that feature official standardization markings or are sold by officially registered vendors. This certification guarantees that the e-liquids are free from prohibited additives (such as vitamin E acetate) and that the device’s battery meets strict safety standards to prevent overheating.

Avoid Grey-Market Counterfeits

Because Dubai is a major global trading hub, counterfeit products can occasionally slip into unauthorized channels. Always purchase from established, reputable vape boutiques or verified online delivery networks. Check for scannable QR verification codes on product packaging to confirm authenticity.

2. Identify Your Vaping Tier (Device Categorization)

Vaping hardware is generally divided into three main categories. Identifying where you fit on this spectrum will instantly narrow down your choices.

A. Disposable Vapes (Best for Beginners and Convenience)

Disposables are all-in-one, non-refillable devices that come pre-charged and pre-filled with e-liquid. Once the liquid or battery runs out, the device is discarded.

• Pros: Zero maintenance, no buttons, highly portable, and affordable upfront cost.
• Cons: High long-term cost, environmentally wasteful, and no customization.
• Popular in Dubai: Brands like TUGBOAT, ELFBAR, and Yuoto are highly visible across Dubai for their convenience during long commutes or travel.

B. Pod Systems (Best for Daily Users and Nicotine Delivery)

Pod systems use a rechargeable battery component paired with replaceable or refillable plastic pods. They are typically optimized for nicotine salts, which provide a smooth throat hit at higher nicotine concentrations.

• Pros: Discrete vapor production, long battery life relative to size, cost-effective, and highly reliable.
• Cons: Requires occasional coil or pod replacements and periodic battery charging.
• Popular in Dubai: Devices like the Uwell Caliburn series, Vaporesso XROS, and RELX are exceptionally popular among professionals in Dubai’s business districts due to their sleek, minimalist design.

C. Mod and Tank Systems (Best for Hobbyists and Cloud Chasers)

Mods are large, advanced devices featuring heavy-duty replaceable batteries, customizable chipsets, and large glass tanks filled with freebase e-liquid.

• Pros: Massive vapor output (“clouds”), highly customizable wattage and temperature settings, and the absolute lowest long-term e-liquid cost.
• Cons: Bulky, complex to operate, requires regular maintenance (changing coils, priming cotton), and can leak if subjected to extreme temperature shifts.

3. Match the Device to Your Inhalation Style

The way you prefer to draw vapor into your lungs dictates the type of tank, coil resistance, and airflow configuration you need.

Mouth-to-Lung (MTL) ----> Mimics Cigarette Draw ----> High Nicotine / Tight Airflow
Direct-to-Lung (DTL) ---> Mimics Shisha Draw    ----> Low Nicotine / Open Airflow

Mouth-to-Lung (MTL)

This style involves drawing vapor into your mouth first, holding it for a brief moment, and then inhaling it into your lungs—exactly like the sensation of smoking a traditional cigarette. If you are using vaping as a tool to transition away from smoking, an MTL pod system or high-resistance disposable is your best option.

Direct-to-Lung (DTL)

This style involves inhaling the vapor directly into your lungs in one deep breath—very similar to traditional shisha. If you enjoy the deep, rich flavor profiles and open airflow characteristic of Dubai’s vibrant shisha lounge culture, a Sub-Ohm Mod system or a versatile Pod-Mod with adjustable airflow will satisfy that preference.

4. Account for Dubai’s Climate and Environmental Factors

Dubai’s weather is an often-overlooked variable that directly impacts how a vaping device functions. Extreme summer temperatures and indoor air conditioning create unique challenges for vaping hardware.

Environmental Factor	Impact on Vape Device	Best Countermeasure
Intense Summer Heat	Thins out e-liquid, increasing the risk of structural leaking.	Choose top-airflow tanks or pods with multi-layer leak isolation seals.
Drastic Temperature Flips	Causes air expansion inside pods, forcing liquid out of the seals.	Avoid leaving your device inside parked cars; keep it in climate-controlled spaces.
Fine Desert Sand/Dust	Clogs open USB-C ports, buttons, and airflow intake slots.	Select devices with protective dust caps or clean your device regularly.

5. Evaluate Battery Capacity and Charging Infrastructure

Dubai is a fast-paced, highly mobile city. If you spend long hours commuting down Sheikh Zayed Road, attending back-to-back meetings, or exploring the city, a dead battery can be a major inconvenience.

• Milliampere-hours (mAh): This rating dictates how long a battery lasts. For a compact pod system, look for a minimum of 800mAh to 1000mAh to ensure a full day of typical use. For large mods, dual-18650 external battery configurations are ideal.
• Pass-Through Charging: Ensure the device supports Type-C fast charging with pass-through capabilities. This feature allows you to safely use the device while it is plugged into your car charger or office laptop, ensuring you are never caught without power.

6. Analyze Long-Term Costs and E-Liquid Availability

When choosing a device, consider the ongoing cost of its consumables (coils, pods, and juices). Check what is readily available at your local brick-and-mortar shops or favorite online hubs.

• Proprietary vs. Open Systems: Closed systems (like RELX or pre-filled pods) offer incredible simplicity, but you are locked into their specific flavor pods, which can be more expensive over time. Open, refillable systems allow you to buy any brand of domestic or imported bottles of e-liquid, saving you money in the long run.
• Flavor Profiles: Dubai’s market features an incredible variety of flavor profiles, ranging from icy mango and traditional cuban tobacco to rich dessert blends. Ensure the device you select performs well with the specific type of e-liquid flavor profile you prefer.

Summary Checklist for Choosing Your Vape

To find the absolute best vape for your needs in Dubai, guide your purchase with this quick summary checklist:

• Legality: Is the vendor reputable, and does the product feature authentic verification markings?
• Intent: Are you looking for zero-effort convenience (Disposables), an all-day companion for nicotine delivery (Pods), or a customizable flavor experience (Mods)?
• Inhalation Style: Do you want a tight, cigarette-like draw (MTL) or a wide-open, shisha-like cloud (DTL)?
• Resilience: Is the device designed to resist leaking during Dubai’s hot summer months?
• Battery: Does the hardware offer enough battery life to last through your longest out-of-home routines?

Maskking sells two products in the UAE and they sit at opposite ends of the market. The High GT holds 1.4 ml and claims 500 puffs at AED 20; the Ultra 50K claims 50,000 puffs at AED 45. There is nothing in between — a hundredfold gap in claimed output between a brand’s only two lines, which is unusual enough to be the first thing to understand about it.

The two devices also differ in how much they tell you. The High GT publishes its capacity, battery, resistance and dimensions. The Ultra 50K publishes its battery and its nicotine options but not its e-liquid capacity, which is the one figure you would need to judge the puff claim.

Quick summary

• The High GT is a 500-puff device holding 1.4 ml on a 360 mAh non-rechargeable battery at 30 mg/ml, for AED 20 — or AED 160 for a box of ten.
• The Ultra 50K claims 50,000 puffs on an 850 mAh rechargeable battery with a mesh coil and five adjustable airflow and flavour modes, for AED 45.
• The Ultra 50K is the only high-puff device stocked here that does not publish its e-liquid capacity, so its cost per millilitre cannot be calculated and its claim cannot be checked.
• The Ultra offers a 20 mg/ml option alongside 50 mg/ml, which meets the ceiling in clause 4.2.4 of UAE.S 5030:2018. The High GT is 30 mg/ml only.
• Only two flavours appear on both lines — Cool Mint and Mango Ice — out of 23 across the range. The High GT is also the only device stocked here offering two separate tobacco profiles.

The Two Maskking Lines Compared

Every figure below comes from the manufacturer’s own specification for that device. Where a figure is not published, the table says so rather than estimating it.

Specification	High GT	Ultra 50K
Claimed puffs	500	50,000
E-liquid capacity	1.4 ml	Not published
Nicotine	30 mg/ml	20 or 50 mg/ml
Battery	360 mAh	850 mAh
Rechargeable	No	Yes (Type-C)
Coil resistance	1.6 Ω	Mesh, not stated
Airflow modes	Fixed	5-in-1 adjustable
Dimensions	16 × 10 × 105 mm	Not stated
Flavours	13	12
Price	AED 20	AED 45
Box of ten	AED 160	AED 430

The High GT is built from PCTG and stainless steel, draw-activated, with no button, no port and nothing to maintain. The Ultra 50K is a rechargeable device with a mesh coil and five airflow and flavour settings — a different class of product sharing only a brand name.

What Maskking’s Own Small Device Tells You About Its Big One

The High GT publishes everything needed to check its own claim: 1.4 ml of liquid against 500 claimed puffs works out at 2.80 ml per 1,000 puffs. That sits inside the band that disposables with verifiable specifications actually consume, so the High GT’s figure is credible as printed.

Apply that same rate — Maskking’s own, from Maskking’s own device — to the Ultra 50K, and 50,000 puffs would require roughly 140 ml of e-liquid. Even at the most efficient end of the observed range, 2.2 ml per 1,000, it would need 110 ml.

Basis	Rate	Liquid needed for 50,000 puffs
Maskking High GT, measured from its own specs	2.80 ml / 1,000	140 ml
Most efficient observed rate across all brands	2.20 ml / 1,000	110 ml
Largest tank actually sold in the UAE range	—	50 ml

The largest e-liquid capacity in any disposable stocked here is 50 ml. A device would need somewhere between two and three times that to deliver 50,000 puffs at the rate Maskking’s own smaller product achieves, and no handheld disposable holds that much.

This is not a claim that the Ultra 50K performs badly — it may well be a good device, and its adjustable airflow and 850 mAh rechargeable battery are real features. It is a claim about the number on the box, and it is the reason the missing capacity figure matters. Ask for it before buying if lifespan is what you are paying for. The puff count guide explains why capacity is the specification that actually predicts how long a device lasts.

Why You Cannot Calculate Value on the Ultra 50K

Across every other brand in the range, cost per millilitre is the comparison that holds — it strips out the puff claim and prices the thing you are actually buying. That calculation is not available for the Ultra 50K.

Device	Price	Capacity	Cost per ml	Per ml, box of ten
Maskking High GT	AED 20	1.4 ml	AED 14.29	AED 11.43
Maskking Ultra 50K	AED 45	Not published	Cannot be calculated	Cannot be calculated

The High GT’s AED 14.29 per millilitre is the highest figure in the whole disposable range, which is what a 1.4 ml device costs. That is not a criticism — you are buying a small, disposable, pocket-sized object, and the per-millilitre price of anything that small is high. But it does mean the High GT is a device to carry occasionally rather than to run as a daily habit.

Pure Tobacco	Tobacco	✓	–
Strawberry Ice	Fruit + ice	–	✓
Strawberry Lychee	Fruit + tropical	✓	–
Strawberry Watermelon	Fruit	–	✓
Watermelon Ice	Fruit + ice	–	✓

The High GT carries Pure Tobacco and Coffee Tobacco — two separate tobacco profiles on one small device, which no other brand stocked here offers. It also has Grape Paradise and Cocktail, both without a cooling agent in the name. The other brand carrying a plain tobacco disposable is covered in the Yuoto guide.

The Ultra 50K’s list runs almost entirely to iced fruit: ten of its twelve flavours carry an ice or mint element, the exceptions being Mixed Berry and Strawberry Watermelon. If you want something outside that, the High GT is where Maskking keeps it.

Nicotine Strength and the UAE Limit

Clause 4.2.4 of UAE.S 5030:2018 states that nicotine in e-liquid must be “less than or equal to 20 milligrams per millilitre”. The Ultra 50K is offered in a 2% version, which is 20 mg/ml and meets that figure, and a 5% version at 50 mg/ml which does not. The High GT is 30 mg/ml only.

Because the Ultra is sold in both strengths under the same product name, check which one you are ordering. The 20 mg/ml limit explainer covers how strengths are labelled and what else the standard requires. Clause 4.2.5 caps an integrated tank at 10 ml, which the 1.4 ml High GT meets comfortably; the Ultra’s capacity is not published, so that cannot be assessed either.

Frequently Asked Questions

How many ml is the Maskking Ultra 50K?

Maskking does not publish the e-liquid capacity of the Ultra 50K. It is the only high-puff device stocked in the UAE without a stated capacity, which means its cost per millilitre cannot be calculated and its 50,000-puff claim cannot be checked against the volume of liquid it holds.

How much is a Maskking vape in the UAE?

The High GT is AED 20 for a single device, reduced from AED 30, or AED 160 for a box of ten. The Ultra 50K is AED 45 for a single device or AED 430 for a box of ten. Both are draw-activated; only the Ultra recharges.

Is the Maskking Ultra 50K rechargeable?

Yes, over USB Type-C, with an 850 mAh battery and fast charging. It also has five adjustable airflow and flavour modes and a mesh coil. The High GT is not rechargeable — it carries a 360 mAh battery sized for its 1.4 ml tank and is discarded when empty.

Which Maskking is 20 mg nicotine?

The Ultra 50K is sold in a 2% version, which is 20 mg/ml, alongside a 5% version at 50 mg/ml. Since both are listed under the same product name, confirm the strength before ordering. The High GT is only available at 3%, or 30 mg/ml.

Does Maskking make a tobacco flavour?

Yes, two of them, both on the High GT: Pure Tobacco and Coffee Tobacco. No other brand stocked in the UAE carries two separate tobacco profiles on a single device. Neither appears on the Ultra 50K, whose catalogue runs almost entirely to iced fruit.

How many puffs does the Maskking High GT have?

Approximately 500, from a 1.4 ml tank. That works out at 2.80 ml of liquid per 1,000 puffs, which sits inside the range that devices with verifiable specifications actually consume — so the High GT’s claim is credible as printed, unlike most high-puff figures in this category.

What is the difference between the Maskking High GT and the Ultra?

Almost everything. The High GT is a 1.4 ml sealed device claiming 500 puffs at AED 20; the Ultra 50K is a rechargeable device with adjustable airflow claiming 50,000 puffs at AED 45. Only two flavours — Cool Mint and Mango Ice — appear on both, out of 23 across the range.

Is the Maskking High GT good value?

Not on liquid. At AED 20 for 1.4 ml it works out at AED 14.29 per millilitre, the highest figure of any disposable stocked here, falling to AED 11.43 by the box. That is what a device this small costs. It suits occasional carry rather than daily use.

The Short Version

Maskking sells a very small device and a very large claim, with nothing between them. The High GT is honest about what it is — 1.4 ml, 500 puffs, a figure its own specifications support — and it carries the only pair of tobacco flavours in the range. The Ultra 50K is better equipped, offers a 20 mg/ml option and recharges, but it does not publish the one number that would let you judge its headline claim or its value. Ask for the capacity before you buy it.

These products contain nicotine, which is addictive. For sale to adults aged 18 and over only. Not for use by non-smokers, pregnant or nursing women, or people with heart or lung conditions. Nothing on this page is a health claim, and these products are not smoking-cessation treatments.

Yuoto sells two disposable models in the UAE: the XXL 2500 at AED 20 and the Thanos 5000 at AED 25. The XXL is the cheapest disposable stocked here, holding 7 ml on a 1,200 mAh battery; the Thanos holds 14 ml and recharges over USB Type-C. Between them they carry 26 flavours, and the range includes profiles almost no other brand offers — Popcorn, Tobacco, Milk Coffee and Strawberry Ice Cream among them.

Yuoto is not competing on puff-count headlines. Both its devices sit at the small end of the market, and the interesting things about the range are its battery sizing and the unusual breadth of its flavour catalogue.

Quick summary

• The XXL 2500 is the cheapest device in the range at AED 20, or AED 145 for a box of ten, which brings it to AED 14.50 per device.
• It carries 1,200 mAh for a 7 ml tank — about 171 mAh per millilitre, roughly four to six times the ratio on the large 30,000-puff devices. That is why it does not die before its liquid runs out.
• The Thanos 5000 is the better value per millilitre at AED 1.79, against AED 2.86 for the XXL. It holds twice the liquid for AED 5 more and recharges.
• Yuoto’s flavour range is the most unusual stocked here. Popcorn, Tobacco, Mouse Chef, Milk Coffee, Antonovka Apple and Aloe Blackcurrant appear on no other brand in the catalogue.
• Both models are 50 mg/ml. Clause 4.2.4 of UAE.S 5030:2018 caps nicotine in e-liquid at 20 mg/ml.

The Two Yuoto Models Compared

Every figure below comes from the manufacturer’s own specification for that device.

Specification	XXL 2500	Thanos 5000
E-liquid capacity	7.0 ml	14 ml
Nicotine	50 mg/ml	50 mg/ml
Battery	1,200 mAh	650 mAh
Rechargeable	No	Yes (Type-C)
Coil	Not stated	Mesh
Dimensions	20 × 20 × 103 mm	Not stated
Weight	53 g	Not stated
Flavours	21	16
Price	AED 20	AED 25
Box of ten	AED 145	AED 240

The XXL 2500 is a compact sealed device — 103 mm tall and 53 grams — with an LED inhale and battery indicator and no charging port. The Thanos 5000 doubles the liquid, adds a mesh coil and a Type-C port, and costs AED 5 more.

Why the XXL Is Hard to Kill

The most common complaint about cheap disposables is that the battery gives out while liquid is still in the tank. The Yuoto XXL is built so that cannot easily happen.

Measured as battery capacity per millilitre of liquid, the XXL carries about 171 mAh per ml. Here is how that compares with the rest of the disposables stocked in the UAE.

Device	Battery	Capacity	mAh per ml
Yuoto XXL 2500	1,200 mAh	7.0 ml	171
Tugboat EVO 4500	850 mAh	10 ml	85
Yuoto Thanos 5000	650 mAh	14 ml	46
ELFBAR ICE King 30000	850 mAh	20 ml	43
Al Fakher Mega Max 40K	850 mAh	30 ml	28
WAKA Blade 50000	900 mAh	33 ml	27
Tugboat T12000	600 mAh	24 ml	25

The pattern is a consequence of design, not generosity. A device with no charging port has to finish its tank on the charge it ships with, so the battery is specified against the liquid. A rechargeable device does not, so its battery is specified against convenience — enough for a day, then plug it in.

What that means in practice: the XXL should reach the end of its 7 ml with charge to spare, and it has the largest margin of any device in the range. At AED 20 that makes it a low-risk way to try a flavour, which is the job it is built for. If a disposable of any brand has stopped early on you, the early failure guide covers the usual causes.

Yuoto’s Flavour Range Is the Most Unusual in the Category

Most disposable brands run variations on fruit, ice and mint. Yuoto does that too, but it also carries profiles that appear nowhere else in this catalogue.

• Popcorn and Tobacco — a savoury profile and a plain tobacco, both on the XXL. Very few disposables offer either, and almost none offer both.
• Milk Coffee and Strawberry Ice Cream — dessert and beverage profiles rather than fruit blends, on the XXL and the Thanos respectively.
• Antonovka Apple — a named apple cultivar rather than a generic apple flavour, exclusive to the Thanos.
• Mouse Chef and Aloe Blackcurrant — a blend and a botanical-fruit pairing, neither of which has an equivalent in the other brands stocked here.

The practical point is that Yuoto is where to look if you have tried the standard fruit-and-ice lineup and want something outside it. It is not where to look for the widest choice within any one profile.

Yuoto Flavour Guide: All 26 Flavours

Every flavour listed across the two models, with the profile it belongs to. Eleven appear on both devices.

Flavour	Profile	XXL 2500	Thanos 5000
Aloe Blackcurrant	Botanical + berry	✓	–
Antonovka Apple	Fruit	–	✓
Banana Ice	Fruit + ice	✓	✓
Blueberry Ice	Berry + ice	✓	✓

Strawberry Peach Ice	Fruit + ice	–	✓
Strawberry Watermelon Ice	Fruit + ice	✓	✓
Tobacco	Tobacco	✓	–
Two Apple	Shisha-style	✓	–
Watermelon Ice	Fruit + ice	✓	✓

Ten flavours are exclusive to the XXL, including Two Apple and Pina Colada Ice, and five to the Thanos. Seventeen of the 26 carry an ice or mint element in the name, so if you dislike cooling agents the range narrows considerably — Passion Fruit, Milk Coffee, Popcorn, Tobacco, Two Apple, Antonovka Apple, Coconut + Melon, Aloe Blackcurrant and Mouse Chef are the nine without it.

Cost per Millilitre and Puff Plausibility

Liquid capacity is the fixed physical quantity, so cost per millilitre is the comparison that holds between the two devices.

Device	Price	Capacity	Cost per ml	Per ml, box of ten	ml per 1,000 puffs
Yuoto Thanos 5000	AED 25	14 ml	AED 1.79	AED 1.71	2.80 ml
Yuoto XXL 2500	AED 20	7.0 ml	AED 2.86	AED 2.07	2.80 ml

The Thanos holds twice the liquid for AED 5 more, so it is substantially better value per millilitre — AED 1.79 against AED 2.86, or AED 1.71 buying the box. The XXL wins only on entry price and on the box discount, which cuts it to AED 14.50 per device.

Both models consume 2.80 ml per 1,000 claimed puffs, which sits inside the band that devices with checkable claims actually use. Neither is making a puff claim its tank cannot support — a distinction from most of the 30,000-puff tier, as the puff count guide sets out. The other 2,500-puff device stocked here is covered in the Pod Salt GO guide, which is the closest direct comparison for the XXL.

Nicotine Strength and the UAE Limit

Both Yuoto models are specified at 50 mg/ml. Clause 4.2.4 of UAE.S 5030:2018 states that nicotine in e-liquid must be “less than or equal to 20 milligrams per millilitre”, and clause 4.2.5 caps an integrated tank at 10 ml — a limit the XXL’s 7 ml meets and the Thanos’s 14 ml does not.

Read both numbers on the packaging before buying. The 20 mg/ml limit explainer covers what the standard requires. To compare Yuoto against every other brand at these tiers, start from the disposable buying guide; delivery cut-offs are on the delivery page.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much is a Yuoto XXL in the UAE?

AED 20 for a single device, or AED 145 for a box of ten, which works out at AED 14.50 each. That makes it the cheapest disposable stocked here. The Yuoto Thanos 5000 is AED 25 for a single device or AED 240 for the box.

How many ml is a Yuoto XXL 2500?

Seven millilitres at 50 mg/ml, on a 1,200 mAh non-rechargeable battery. The device measures 20 × 20 × 103 mm and weighs 53 grams, with an LED inhale and battery indicator. At AED 20 that is AED 2.86 per millilitre.

Is the Yuoto XXL rechargeable?

No. The XXL 2500 ships pre-charged and has no charging port. Its 1,200 mAh battery is sized generously against a 7 ml tank — about 171 mAh per millilitre — so it should reach the end of its liquid with charge remaining. The Thanos 5000 is the rechargeable model, charging over USB Type-C.

What is the difference between the Yuoto XXL and the Thanos?

Capacity, charging and flavours. The XXL holds 7 ml, is not rechargeable and carries 21 flavours; the Thanos holds 14 ml, recharges over Type-C with a mesh coil and carries 16. Eleven flavours are on both. The XXL is AED 20 and the Thanos AED 25.

Does Yuoto make a tobacco flavour?

Yes. The XXL 2500 carries a plain Tobacco flavour, which is unusual — very few disposables stocked in the UAE offer one. The XXL also carries Popcorn, a savoury profile with no equivalent in any other brand here. Neither appears on the Thanos 5000.

Which Yuoto flavours have no ice or menthol?

Nine of the 26: Passion Fruit, Milk Coffee, Popcorn, Tobacco, Two Apple, Mouse Chef and Aloe Blackcurrant on the XXL, plus Antonovka Apple and Coconut + Melon on the Thanos. The remaining seventeen all carry an ice or mint element in the name.

Which Yuoto is better value?

The Thanos 5000 on liquid, at AED 1.79 per millilitre against AED 2.86 for the XXL. It holds twice as much for AED 5 more. The XXL is better only on entry price, and on its box of ten at AED 145, which brings each device down to AED 14.50.

Are Yuoto puff counts realistic?

More so than most. Both models work out at 2.80 ml of liquid per 1,000 claimed puffs, inside the range that devices with verifiable claims consume. They are still manufacturer estimates with no regulated test behind them, but the tanks are large enough to support the figures printed on the boxes.

The Short Version

Yuoto sits at the cheap, small end of the disposable market and does two things well there. The XXL 2500 is the lowest-priced device stocked here and carries far more battery per millilitre than anything else, so it finishes its liquid rather than dying early. And the flavour range reaches well beyond the usual fruit-and-ice lineup, with Popcorn, Tobacco, Milk Coffee and Antonovka Apple available nowhere else in the catalogue. For value per millilitre, the Thanos 5000 is the better of the two.

Tugboat sells two disposable models in the UAE: the EVO 4500 at AED 25 and the T12000 at AED 30. The EVO holds 10 ml and is not rechargeable; the T12000 holds 24 ml and charges over USB Type-C. Between them they carry 29 flavours, 11 of which appear on both devices.

Tugboat is also the only disposable brand stocked here whose puff claims survive an arithmetic check on both of its devices. That is unusual enough to be the most useful thing to know about the range, and it is where this guide starts.

Quick summary

• Both Tugboat models have physically plausible puff claims. The EVO uses 2.22 ml of liquid per 1,000 claimed puffs and the T12000 uses 2.00 ml — inside the band that devices with checkable claims actually consume.
• The EVO 4500 holds exactly 10 ml, which is the integrated-tank ceiling set by clause 4.2.5 of UAE.S 5030:2018. No other disposable in the range sits on that line.
• The T12000 has the smaller battery of the two — 600 mAh against the EVO’s 850 mAh — which is precisely why it recharges and the EVO does not.
• The T12000 is the better value at AED 1.25 per ml, or AED 1.17 buying the box of ten. The EVO is AED 2.50 per ml.
• Two EVO flavours cost more than the rest. Guava Blue Razz and Watermelon Bubblegum are AED 28 where every other EVO flavour is AED 25.

The Two Tugboat Models Compared

Every figure below comes from the manufacturer’s own specification for that device.

Specification	EVO 4500	T12000
E-liquid capacity	10 ml	24 ml
Nicotine	50 mg/ml	50 mg/ml
Battery	850 mAh	600 mAh
Rechargeable	No	Yes (Type-C)
Coil resistance	1.2 Ω mesh	1.0 Ω mesh
Dimensions	25 × 111 mm	Not stated
Flavours	24	16
Price	AED 25	AED 30
Box of ten	AED 200	AED 280

These are not two sizes of the same device. The coil resistance differs, the charging behaviour differs, and the flavour catalogues only partly overlap. The EVO 4500 is a sealed single-charge device; the T12000 is a rechargeable one built around more than twice the liquid.

Why the Bigger Device Has the Smaller Battery

The EVO 4500 carries an 850 mAh battery and cannot be recharged. The T12000 carries 600 mAh and must be. That looks backwards until you put it next to the tank size.

A disposable’s battery only has to outlast its liquid. The EVO holds 10 ml, and 850 mAh is enough to vaporise roughly that much at 1.2 Ω — so the device is designed to reach empty once, on the charge it ships with, and then be discarded. Nothing is gained by adding a port.

The T12000 holds 24 ml. No battery that fits in a device this size will vaporise 24 ml on a single charge, so a charging port is not a feature here — it is a requirement. The lower 1.0 Ω coil draws more power per puff as well, which shortens each charge cycle further. Expect to recharge a T12000 several times before the liquid runs out.

The practical consequence: if you want something you can top up on the go, the T12000 is the only Tugboat that does it. If you want a device with nothing to manage at all, the EVO is the one. Runtime in day-to-day use is covered in the guide to how long a disposable actually lasts.

Tugboat’s Puff Claims Hold Up Better Than Most

Disposable puff counts are manufacturer estimates with no defined test behind them, and across the market they drift well beyond what the liquid volume supports. Tugboat is the exception in this catalogue.

Device	Capacity	Claimed puffs	ml per 1,000	Plausible?
Tugboat EVO 4500	10 ml	4,500	2.22 ml	Yes
Tugboat T12000	24 ml	12,000	2.00 ml	Yes

Devices whose claims can be independently checked consume roughly 2.2 to 2.8 ml of liquid per 1,000 puffs. Both Tugboats land inside or just under that band. By contrast, most 30,000- and 50,000-puff devices imply 0.6 to 0.9 ml per 1,000 — a quarter of the liquid per draw, from the same coil technology.

That does not make Tugboat’s numbers laboratory-verified, and they are still estimates. It does mean that if you buy a T12000 expecting something in the region of 12,000 puffs, the tank is large enough to make that a reasonable expectation rather than a marketing figure. The full arithmetic across every brand is set out in the puff count guide. The only other device stocked here with a comparably credible claim is the Crown Bar 8000 in the Al Fakher range.

The EVO 4500 and the 10 ml Line

Clause 4.2.5 of UAE.S 5030:2018 states that an integrated tank “shall not exceed 10 ml”. The Tugboat EVO 4500 holds exactly 10 ml.

Every other disposable in this range is above that figure — the T12000 at 24 ml, and the larger devices from other brands at 18 ml to 50 ml. The EVO is the only one that sits on the line rather than over it, which is worth knowing if tank capacity is something you check.

Nicotine is a separate matter. Both Tugboat models are specified at 50 mg/ml, and clause 4.2.4 caps nicotine in e-liquid at 20 mg/ml. Read both numbers on the packaging — capacity and strength are independent, and a device can meet one requirement without meeting the other. The 20 mg/ml limit explainer covers what the standard requires and how strengths are labelled.

The Two Catalogues Are Aimed at Different Palates

The thirteen flavours exclusive to the EVO skew sweet and dessert-led: Gummy Bear, Lemon Tart, Cherry Pie Ice, Bahamas Mamas, Hawaiian Fruit, Strawberry Banana and Triple Berry Ice among them.

The five exclusive to the T12000 go the other way. Double Apple Shisha, VCT — a vanilla custard tobacco blend — plain Grape, Mango Passion Fruit and Blackcurrant Lychee are drier and more adult, with two of the five drawn from shisha and tobacco profiles rather than confectionery.

That split is consistent with the devices themselves. The EVO is the entry model at AED 25 with nothing to charge or manage; the T12000 is the larger, rechargeable device for someone who has settled on a habit. If you are choosing on flavour alone, note that eleven flavours — including Lush Ice, Cool Mint, Cotton Candy, Red Energy and Watermelon Bubblegum — are on both, so those are the safe picks if you want to switch models later.

Cost per Millilitre, and the Two-Dirham Flavour Premium

Liquid capacity is the fixed quantity, so cost per millilitre is the comparison that holds across the two devices.

Device	Price	Capacity	Cost per ml	Per ml, box of ten
Tugboat T12000	AED 30	24 ml	AED 1.25	AED 1.17
Tugboat EVO 4500	AED 25	10 ml	AED 2.50	AED 2.00
Tugboat EVO 4500 (premium flavours)	AED 28	10 ml	AED 2.80	AED 2.50

The T12000 costs AED 5 more and holds 14 ml more liquid, which makes it half the price per millilitre and one of the best-value disposables stocked in the UAE. Buying the box of ten brings it to AED 1.17 per ml.

The EVO carries an unusual quirk: Guava Blue Razz and Watermelon Bubblegum are AED 28 while every other EVO flavour is AED 25, and AED 250 rather than AED 200 by the box. The device is identical; only the flavour differs. Both are also available on the T12000, where they carry no premium at all.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between the Tugboat EVO and the T12000?

Capacity, charging and coil. The EVO 4500 holds 10 ml on an 850 mAh battery that cannot be recharged, with a 1.2 Ω mesh coil. The T12000 holds 24 ml on a 600 mAh battery that charges over USB Type-C, with a lower 1.0 Ω coil. The EVO is AED 25 and the T12000 is AED 30.

Is the Tugboat EVO rechargeable?

No. The EVO 4500 ships pre-charged with an 850 mAh battery and has no charging port. That battery is sized to empty its 10 ml tank once, so the device reaches the end of its liquid and its charge at roughly the same time. The T12000 is the rechargeable model in the range.

How many ml is the Tugboat T12000?

Twenty-four millilitres at 50 mg/ml, on a 1.0 Ω mesh coil with a 600 mAh rechargeable battery. At AED 30 for a single device that works out at AED 1.25 per millilitre, or AED 1.17 buying the box of ten at AED 280.

How much is a Tugboat vape in the UAE?

The EVO 4500 is AED 25 for a single device or AED 200 for a box of ten, except Guava Blue Razz and Watermelon Bubblegum which are AED 28 and AED 250. The T12000 is AED 30 for a single device or AED 280 for the box.

Are Tugboat puff counts accurate?

They are more credible than most. The EVO implies 2.22 ml of liquid per 1,000 claimed puffs and the T12000 implies 2.00 ml, both close to the rate that devices with checkable claims consume. They remain manufacturer estimates with no regulated test behind them, but the tank sizes support the figures printed on the boxes.

How many flavours does Tugboat have in the UAE?

Twenty-nine across the two models. The EVO 4500 carries 24 and the T12000 carries 16, with eleven shared between them. Thirteen flavours are exclusive to the EVO and five to the T12000, including Double Apple Shisha and VCT.

Which Tugboat has shisha and tobacco flavours?

The T12000. It carries Double Apple Shisha and VCT, a vanilla custard tobacco blend, neither of which appears on the EVO 4500. The T12000’s exclusive flavours skew drier and more adult overall, while the EVO’s lean towards dessert and candy profiles.

Does the Tugboat EVO meet the UAE tank size limit?

On capacity, yes. Clause 4.2.5 of UAE.S 5030:2018 caps an integrated tank at 10 ml and the EVO 4500 holds exactly 10 ml. Its nicotine strength is a separate question — both Tugboat models are specified at 50 mg/ml, above the 20 mg/ml ceiling in clause 4.2.4.

The Short Version

Two devices with a clear division of labour. The EVO 4500 is the sealed 10 ml entry model with a sweet, dessert-heavy flavour list and nothing to charge. The T12000 is the rechargeable 24 ml device with a drier catalogue, half the cost per millilitre and the only shisha and tobacco options in the range. Both carry puff claims their tanks can actually support, which is more than most of this category manages.

These products contain nicotine, which is addictive. For sale to adults aged 18 and over only. Not for use by non-smokers, pregnant or nursing women, or people with heart or lung conditions. Nothing on this page is a health claim, and these products are not smoking-cessation treatments.

Al Fakher sells five disposable models in the UAE — the Crown Bar 8000, Pro Max 15000, Ultra 25000, Mega Max 40K, Cloud Box 50K Puffs and E Hose X 60000 — priced from AED 35 to AED 55. Three of the five are specified at 5 or 6 mg/ml, which makes Al Fakher the lowest-nicotine disposable brand stocked in the UAE by a wide margin.

That is not an accident of sourcing. Al Fakher has made shisha tobacco since 1999, and the range is built around long, low-strength, social sessions rather than the sharp nicotine hit most disposables are designed for. This guide covers what separates the five models, and which of the two flavour families each one belongs to.

Quick summary

• Three of five models are 5–6 mg/ml. The Crown Bar 8000 and Ultra 25000 are 5 mg/ml and the Mega Max 40K is 6 mg/ml. Only the Pro Max 15000 and E Hose X 60000 are 50 mg/ml.
• The range splits into two flavour families, not one catalogue. The Crown Bar 8000 and Pro Max 15000 share one 19-flavour list; the Ultra 25000 and Mega Max 40K share a different 21-flavour list. Only 11 flavours appear on all five devices.
• The E Hose X 60000 holds 50 ml — the largest capacity of any disposable stocked here — and at AED 1.10 per millilitre it is the cheapest liquid in the shop.
• The Crown Bar 8000 is the DTL device, built for direct-to-lung draws at 5 mg/ml, which is why its nicotine is set low.
• Clause 4.2.4 of UAE.S 5030:2018 caps nicotine at 20 mg/ml. Al Fakher’s three low-strength models sit well under it; the Pro Max and E Hose X do not.

Every Al Fakher Model Sold in the UAE

Five devices, listed by claimed puff count. Every figure comes from the manufacturer’s own specification for that model.

Model	Capacity	Nicotine	Battery	Coil	Flavours	Price
Crown Bar 8000 (DTL)	18 ml	5 mg/ml	600 mAh	Mesh	19	AED 35
Crown Bar Pro Max 15000	22 ml	50 mg/ml	600 mAh	Mesh	20	AED 42
Ultra 25000	22 ml	5 mg/ml	300 mAh	Mesh	21	AED 45
Crown Bar Mega Max 40K	30 ml	6 mg/ml	850 mAh	Dual mesh 0.6Ω	22	AED 55
Crown Bar E Hose X 60000	50 ml	50 mg/ml	Type-C	Mesh	17	AED 55

All five recharge over USB Type-C, all five are draw-activated, and every model except the Crown Bar 8000 carries a display showing battery and liquid level. The Ultra 25000 is the outlier on power: its 300 mAh battery is the smallest in the range despite the third-highest puff claim, so it needs charging more often than its size suggests.

Why Al Fakher Runs Low Nicotine

Most disposables sold in the UAE are 50 mg/ml. Al Fakher’s Crown Bar 8000 and Ultra 25000 are 5 mg/ml, and the Mega Max 40K is 6 mg/ml — between a eighth and a tenth of the usual strength.

The reason is draw style. The Crown Bar 8000 is specified as a DTL device — direct-to-lung, the wide-open draw that produces large clouds. A DTL draw pulls far more vapour per puff than a tight mouth-to-lung draw, so the same nicotine strength delivers a much larger dose. Manufacturers compensate by lowering the concentration. At 5 mg/ml with an 18 ml tank, the Crown Bar 8000 carries about 90 mg of nicotine in total; the 50 mg/ml Pro Max, with 22 ml, carries about 1,100 mg.

This also matches how the brand’s shisha customers use a product: long sessions, mild strength, shared socially. If you are moving across from shisha rather than from cigarettes, the low-strength models are the ones designed for that habit.

The Two Al Fakher Flavour Families

Al Fakher does not run a single flavour catalogue across its devices. It runs two, and which one you get depends entirely on which model you buy.

Family	Models	Size	Flavours found only in this family
Crown Bar core	8000 · Pro Max 15000	19–20	Berry Mint · Lucid Dream · Mango Ice · Sweet Passionfruit · White Flash · Gum Flavor
Ultra core	Ultra 25000 · Mega Max 40K	21–22	Berry Blue · Blackcurrant Mint · Hubba · Lemon Lime · Space Dream · Spearmint · Orange Mint
E Hose X	E Hose X 60000	17	Grape · Mixed Berry · Watermelon Kiwi

The two core families are near-perfect supersets of each other within themselves. The Pro Max 15000 carries every flavour the Crown Bar 8000 does, plus Gum Flavor. The Mega Max 40K carries every flavour the Ultra 25000 does, plus Orange Mint. So within a family the larger device is always the safer choice on flavour availability.

Across families, though, there is no overlap to rely on. If Lucid Dream or White Flash is the flavour you want, no Ultra or Mega Max will have it. If you want Hubba or Space Dream, no Crown Bar 8000 or Pro Max will.

Al Fakher Flavour Guide: All 32 Flavours and Where to Find Them

Every flavour listed across the five UAE models, with its profile. Eleven appear on all five — a far more consistent core than most disposable brands offer.

Seven of the 32 are mint, gum or apple profiles that carry directly over from Al Fakher’s shisha catalogue — Two Apple, Grape Mint, Gum Mint, Lemon Mint, Orange Mint, Spearmint and Mint. Five of those seven are on every device in the range, which is the clearest signal of what the brand thinks its core customer wants.

Two Naming Inconsistencies to Watch

• Blackcurrant and Black Currant are the same flavour. The Crown Bar models spell it as one word, the Ultra and Mega Max as two. The same applies to Bluerazz Lemonade and Blue Razz Lemonade. Searching one spelling hides the listings under the other.
• Gum Flavor and Gum Mint are different. Gum Mint is a mint-forward bubblegum on all five devices; Gum Flavor is a plain bubblegum available only on the Pro Max 15000. They are easy to confuse and they do not taste the same.

Cost per Millilitre Across the Al Fakher Range

Liquid capacity is the fixed physical quantity, so cost per millilitre is the comparison that holds across models with differently-set puff claims. Calculated from the single-device price.

Model	Price	Capacity	Cost per ml
Crown Bar E Hose X 60000	AED 55	50 ml	AED 1.10
Crown Bar Mega Max 40K	AED 55	30 ml	AED 1.83
Crown Bar Pro Max 15000	AED 42	22 ml	AED 1.91
Crown Bar 8000	AED 35	18 ml	AED 1.94
Ultra 25000	AED 45	22 ml	AED 2.05

The E Hose X 60000 is the outlier. At 50 ml it holds more than twice the liquid of the Ultra 25000 for AED 10 more, which brings it to AED 1.10 per millilitre — the lowest figure of any disposable stocked in the UAE. The Ultra 25000 is the most expensive per millilitre in its own brand, though its box of ten at AED 430 brings it down to AED 1.95.

Worth noting for the Crown Bar 8000: at 18 ml against 8,000 claimed puffs it works out at 2.25 ml per 1,000 puffs, which sits inside the range that devices with verifiable claims actually consume. It is the one Al Fakher model whose puff figure is physically plausible as printed — the puff count guide explains why that matters.

Nicotine Strength and the UAE Limit

Clause 4.2.4 of UAE.S 5030:2018 states that nicotine in e-liquid must be “less than or equal to 20 milligrams per millilitre”. Within the Al Fakher range the Crown Bar 8000 and Ultra 25000 are 5 mg/ml and the Mega Max 40K is 6 mg/ml, all comfortably under that figure. The Crown Bar Pro Max 15000 and the E Hose X 60000 are specified at 50 mg/ml.

The split does not follow device size, and nothing in the model names indicates it, so read the mg/ml figure on the packaging. The 20 mg/ml limit explainer covers how strengths are labelled and what else the standard requires. For the other brand in the range with low-strength options, see the ELFBAR guide, or browse the full disposable range. Cut-offs and transit times are on the delivery page.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between the Al Fakher Crown Bar and the Ultra?

Chiefly the flavour catalogue. The Crown Bar 8000 and Pro Max 15000 share one 19-flavour list including Lucid Dream, White Flash and Sweet Passionfruit; the Ultra 25000 and Mega Max 40K share a different 21-flavour list including Hubba, Space Dream and Spearmint. Eleven flavours appear on both sides.

How much is an Al Fakher vape in the UAE?

Between AED 35 and AED 55 for a single device. The Crown Bar 8000 is AED 35, the Pro Max 15000 is AED 42, the Ultra 25000 is AED 45, and both the Mega Max 40K and the E Hose X 60000 are AED 55. The Ultra is also sold as a box of ten for AED 430.

Which Al Fakher vape has the lowest nicotine?

The Crown Bar 8000 and the Ultra 25000 are both specified at 5 mg/ml, the lowest in the range. The Mega Max 40K is 6 mg/ml. All three are well under the 20 mg/ml ceiling in UAE.S 5030:2018, unlike the Pro Max 15000 and E Hose X 60000, which are 50 mg/ml.

Is the Al Fakher Crown Bar 8000 MTL or DTL?

DTL — direct to lung. It is specified for the wide, open draw that produces large clouds, which is why its nicotine is set at 5 mg/ml rather than the usual 50. A DTL draw delivers far more vapour per puff, so a lower concentration produces a comparable nicotine dose.

How many ml is the Al Fakher E Hose X 60000?

Fifty millilitres, the largest capacity of any disposable stocked in the UAE. At AED 55 that works out at AED 1.10 per millilitre, which is the lowest cost per millilitre in the shop. It runs at 50 mg/ml with a mesh coil and a smart screen showing battery and liquid level.

Are Al Fakher vapes rechargeable?

Yes, all five models charge over USB Type-C. The Mega Max 40K has the largest stated battery at 850 mAh, followed by the Crown Bar 8000 and Pro Max 15000 at 600 mAh each and the Ultra 25000 at 300 mAh. Charging refills the battery only; none of the devices can be refilled with e-liquid.

Does Al Fakher make shisha-flavoured vapes?

Seven of the 32 flavours in the range are mint, gum or apple profiles carried over from the brand’s shisha catalogue: Two Apple, Grape Mint, Gum Mint, Lemon Mint, Orange Mint, Spearmint and Mint. Five of those appear on every model, making them the most consistently stocked flavours Al Fakher offers.

Which Al Fakher flavours are on every model?

Eleven of the 32: Berry Ice, Blueberry Gum, Cherry Fiesta, Grape Mint, Gum Mint, Lemon Mint, Lush Ice, Magic Love, Peach Ice, Strawberry Punch and Two Apple. That is a much larger shared core than most disposable brands maintain, so these eleven are the safest choices if you switch between Al Fakher models.

The Short Version

Al Fakher is the low-nicotine option in the UAE disposable market, with three of five models at 5–6 mg/ml and a flavour range built on the mint, gum and apple profiles its shisha customers already know. Choose the family first — Crown Bar for Lucid Dream and White Flash, Ultra for Hubba and Space Dream — then the size. The E Hose X 60000 holds 50 ml and is the cheapest liquid in the shop, but it is one of the two models at 50 mg/ml.

These products contain nicotine, which is addictive. For sale to adults aged 18 and over only. Not for use by non-smokers, pregnant or nursing women, or people with heart or lung conditions. Nothing on this page is a health claim, and these products are not smoking-cessation treatments.

 

ELFBAR sells four different 30,000-puff devices in the UAE — the Raya D3 Pro, ICE King, Nic King and E-Shisha Luxe — priced between AED 40 and AED 45.89. They hold between 20 ml and 23 ml of e-liquid, and two of the four are 20 mg/ml while the other two are 50 mg/ml. The number on the box is the same; almost nothing else is.

This guide sets out what actually separates the ELFBAR models sold here: capacity, coil, nicotine strength and flavour catalogue. If you are choosing between two ELFBARs that both say 30000, this is the page that tells you which one you want.

Quick summary

• The Raya D3 Pro is the flagship of the range. It holds 23 ml — the largest in the ELFBAR line-up — on a 950 mAh battery with a triple mesh coil and a full digital side screen. It is also the only ELFBAR here with three mesh coils rather than one or two.
• Nicotine splits the 30,000 tier in half. The Nic King and E-Shisha Luxe are 20 mg/ml; the ICE King and Raya D3 Pro are 50 mg/ml. Clause 4.2.4 of UAE.S 5030:2018 caps nicotine at 20 mg/ml.
• The E-Shisha Luxe is the shisha-profile device. Nine of its fifteen flavours are mint or shisha blends, including Double Apple, Saudi Fruit Mix and five mint pairings not found on any other ELFBAR.
• Peach Ice is the only flavour on all four main models. Across the range there are 44 distinct flavours, and most appear on just one device.
• Best value per millilitre is the Moonlight 40000 at AED 1.82/ml, followed by the BC10000 at AED 1.94 and the Nic King at AED 1.98.

Every ELFBAR Model Sold in the UAE

Six devices, listed by claimed puff count. Every figure comes from the manufacturer’s own specification for that model.

Model	Capacity	Nicotine	Battery	Coil	Flavours	Price
BC10000	18 ml	50 mg/ml	650 mAh	Mesh	—	AED 35
Nic King 30000	20.2 ml	20 mg/ml	850 mAh	Dual mesh	25+	AED 40
E-Shisha Luxe 30000	20 ml	20 mg/ml	850 mAh	Mesh	15	AED 45
ICE King 30000	20 ml	50 mg/ml	850 mAh	Dual mesh	15	AED 45
Raya D3 Pro 30000	23 ml	50 mg/ml	950 mAh	Triple mesh	15	AED 45.89
Moonlight 40000	22 ml	50 mg/ml	850 mAh	Mesh	20	AED 40

All six recharge over USB Type-C and all six are draw-activated. The Moonlight 40000 is also listed on some UAE storefronts as the Moon Night 40000; the two share the same 22 ml capacity, 850 mAh battery, mesh coil and twenty-flavour catalogue, so treat them as one device under two names.

Raya D3 Pro: What Makes It the Flagship

The Raya D3 Pro is the most capable device ELFBAR sells in the UAE, and it is the only one where every headline specification is the largest in the range at once.

Specification	Raya D3 Pro	ICE King	Nic King	E-Shisha Luxe
E-liquid capacity	23 ml	20 ml	20.2 ml	20 ml
Battery	950 mAh	850 mAh	850 mAh	850 mAh
Coil	Triple mesh	Dual mesh	Dual mesh	Mesh
Display	Digital side screen	Indicator	Indicator	LED
Nicotine	50 mg/ml	50 mg/ml	20 mg/ml	20 mg/ml
Price	AED 45.89	AED 45	AED 40	AED 45

Three extra millilitres of liquid, an extra 100 mAh of battery and a third mesh coil are what the extra 89 fils buys over the ICE King. The triple coil is the genuine point of difference — it is the only ELFBAR in the UAE range with one, and it is what the large digital side screen is monitoring alongside battery and liquid level.

ICE King: The Ice-Forward Flavour Line

The ICE King 30000 holds 20 ml at 50 mg/ml on a dual mesh coil, with adjustable airflow, power and cooling settings — the cooling control being the feature the name refers to. It sells for AED 45.

Its fifteen flavours lean cold and fruit-led: Blue Razz Ice, Grape Ice, Watermelon Ice, Peach Ice and Miami Mint sit alongside berry blends such as Blackberry Cranberry, Cherry Pomegranate Cranberry and Mixed Berry. It also carries Elf Bull, an energy-drink profile that appears on no other ELFBAR model in the UAE, and Double Apple for shisha drinkers.

Nic King and E-Shisha Luxe: The 20 mg/ml Options

Two of the four 30,000-puff ELFBARs are specified at 20 mg/ml rather than 50, which is the difference most buyers care about and the one least visible on the packaging.

The Nic King 30000 holds 20.2 ml on a dual mesh coil at AED 40, and carries the widest flavour catalogue of any ELFBAR here — more than 25 including a Sayf summer series of five. At AED 1.98 per millilitre it is also the cheapest 30,000-puff device in the range.

The E-Shisha Luxe 30000 takes a different direction entirely. Nine of its fifteen flavours are mint or shisha profiles — Watermelon Mint, Raspberry Mint, Melon Mint, Lemon Mint, Grape Mint and Bubble Gum Mint, plus Double Apple, Saudi Fruit Mix and Lemon Lime. If you are moving across from shisha rather than from cigarettes, this is the ELFBAR built for that palate. It is AED 45, or AED 440 for a box of ten.

ELFBAR Flavour Guide: All 44 Flavours and Where to Find Them

Every flavour listed across the four main models, with the profile it belongs to. The Nic King is not shown because its catalogue is still expanding and several variants are not yet individually listed.

Two Naming Quirks in the ELFBAR Catalogue

• Double Apple and Two Apple are the same shisha profile. The ICE King and E-Shisha Luxe call it Double Apple; the Moonlight calls it Two Apple. No model carries both, so searching one name hides the other three listings.
• Strawberry Kiwi and Strawberry Kiwi Ice are listed separately. The ICE King carries the plain version, while the Raya D3 Pro and Moonlight carry the iced one. They are not interchangeable — the iced version has the cooling agent, the plain one does not.

Cost per Millilitre Across the ELFBAR Range

Liquid capacity is the fixed physical quantity, so cost per millilitre is the comparison that holds across models whose puff claims are set differently. Calculated from the single-device price.

Model	Price	Capacity	Cost per ml
Moonlight 40000	AED 40	22 ml	AED 1.82
BC10000	AED 35	18 ml	AED 1.94
Nic King 30000	AED 40	20.2 ml	AED 1.98
Raya D3 Pro 30000	AED 45.89	23 ml	AED 2.00
ICE King 30000	AED 45	20 ml	AED 2.25
E-Shisha Luxe 30000	AED 45	20 ml	AED 2.25

The Raya D3 Pro is the most expensive device in the range but not the most expensive liquid: its 23 ml brings it to AED 2.00 per millilitre, below both the ICE King and the E-Shisha Luxe. For a wider view of how the puff figures on these boxes relate to capacity, see the puff count guide, and the 30,000-puff head-to-head compares ELFBAR against the other brands at this tier.

Nicotine Strength and the UAE Limit

Clause 4.2.4 of UAE.S 5030:2018 states that nicotine in e-liquid must be “less than or equal to 20 milligrams per millilitre”, and clause 4.2.5 caps an integrated tank at 10 ml. Within the ELFBAR range the Nic King and E-Shisha Luxe are specified at 20 mg/ml; the Raya D3 Pro, ICE King, Moonlight and BC10000 are 50 mg/ml.

Check the mg/ml figure on the packaging rather than the model name — nothing in “ICE King” or “Nic King” signals which is which, and the two sit next to each other at the same tier. The 20 mg/ml limit explainer sets out what the standard requires and how strengths are labelled. To compare ELFBAR with the other brand carrying a large UAE flavour range, see the WAKA guide, or browse the full disposable range. Cut-offs and transit times are on the delivery page.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between the ELFBAR Raya D3 Pro and the ICE King?

Capacity, battery and coil. The Raya D3 Pro holds 23 ml on a 950 mAh battery with a triple mesh coil and a digital side screen; the ICE King holds 20 ml on 850 mAh with a dual mesh coil and adjustable cooling. Both are 50 mg/ml. The Raya D3 Pro is AED 45.89 and the ICE King is AED 45.

Which ELFBAR is 20 mg nicotine?

Two models in the UAE range are specified at 20 mg/ml: the Nic King 30000, which holds 20.2 ml and sells for AED 40, and the E-Shisha Luxe 30000, which holds 20 ml at AED 45. The Raya D3 Pro, ICE King, Moonlight 40000 and BC10000 are all 50 mg/ml.

How much is an ELFBAR 30000 in the UAE?

Between AED 40 and AED 45.89 for a single device, depending on the model. The Nic King is AED 40, the ICE King and E-Shisha Luxe are AED 45 each, and the Raya D3 Pro is AED 45.89. The E-Shisha Luxe is also sold as a box of ten for AED 440.

Which ELFBAR has the most flavours?

The Nic King 30000 carries the widest catalogue with more than 25 flavours, including a five-strong Sayf summer series. Among the models with settled catalogues, the Moonlight 40000 leads with 20, followed by the Raya D3 Pro, ICE King and E-Shisha Luxe at 15 each.

What is the ELFBAR E-Shisha Luxe?

It is the shisha-oriented device in the ELFBAR range, holding 20 ml at 20 mg/ml on a mesh coil for AED 45. Nine of its fifteen flavours are mint or shisha profiles, including Double Apple, Saudi Fruit Mix, Grape Mint, Lemon Mint and Watermelon Mint, most of which appear on no other ELFBAR model.

Is the ELFBAR Moonlight the same as the Moon Night?

They appear to be the same device sold under two names. Both hold 22 ml at 50 mg/ml on an 850 mAh rechargeable battery with a mesh coil and a curved smart display, and both list the same twenty flavours. If you see both, compare the prices before ordering.

Do ELFBAR disposables recharge?

Yes. Every ELFBAR model sold in the UAE charges over USB Type-C — 950 mAh on the Raya D3 Pro, 850 mAh on the Nic King, ICE King, E-Shisha Luxe and Moonlight, and 650 mAh on the BC10000. Charging refills the battery only; none of the devices can be refilled with e-liquid.

Which ELFBAR flavour is available on every model?

Peach Ice is the only flavour carried by all four main models — the Raya D3 Pro, ICE King, Moonlight and E-Shisha Luxe. Blue Razz Ice, Double Mango, Grape Ice and Watermelon Ice each appear on three, and most of the remaining 44 flavours are exclusive to one device.

The Short Version

Four ELFBARs say 30000 on the box and they are not the same product. The Raya D3 Pro is the largest and best-equipped at 23 ml with a triple mesh coil; the Nic King is the cheapest per millilitre and comes in at 20 mg/ml; the E-Shisha Luxe is the shisha-profile device, also at 20 mg/ml; and the ICE King is the ice-forward flavour line. Read the capacity and the nicotine strength, not the model name.

These products contain nicotine, which is addictive. For sale to adults aged 18 and over only. Not for use by non-smokers, pregnant or nursing women, or people with heart or lung conditions. Nothing on this page is a health claim, and these products are not smoking-cessation treatments.

WAKA sells five disposablemodels in the UAE — the SoPro 10000, SoPro 20000, PA25000, Blade 50000 and Blast 50000 — priced between AED 40 and AED 50 for a single device. Between them they carry 42 distinct flavours, and only one of those flavours is available on every model. This guide sets out what separates the five, and which model carries the flavour you are looking for.

Two of the five share identical hardware and differ only in their flavour lineup, and two more share a body and a tank while claiming very different puff counts. Knowing which is which is the whole trick to buying WAKA sensibly.

Quick summary

• Blade and Blast are the same device. Both hold 33 ml, both run a 900 mAh Type-C battery with a full-side display, both cost AED 50. They differ only in flavours — Blade carries 20, Blast carries 10.
• SoPro 10000 and SoPro 20000 also share hardware — 18 ml, 850 mAh, dual mesh coil — but the 20000 claims twice the puffs and costs AED 5 more.
• Dark Cherry is the only flavour on all five models. Fresh Mint is on four, and Blueberry Ice is on the Blade alone.
• Best value per millilitre is the Blade or Blast at AED 1.52/ml. The SoPro 20000 is the most expensive at AED 2.78/ml.
• Every WAKA model in the range is 50 mg/ml, except the SoPro 10000, which also offers 30 mg/ml. Clause 4.2.4 of UAE.S 5030:2018 caps nicotine at 20 mg/ml.

The WAKA Range in the UAE

Five models, listed by capacity. Every figure is taken from the manufacturer’s own specification for that device.

Model	Capacity	Nicotine	Battery	Display	Flavours	Price
SoPro 10000	18 ml	30 or 50 mg/ml	850 mAh	Battery + liquid	8	AED 45
SoPro 20000	18 ml	50 mg/ml	850 mAh	Smart LED	18	AED 50
PA25000	22 ml	50 mg/ml	800 mAh	Dual screen	18	AED 40
Blade 50000	33 ml	50 mg/ml	900 mAh	Full-side	20	AED 50
Blast 50000	33 ml	50 mg/ml	900 mAh	Full-side	10	AED 50

All five recharge over USB Type-C, all five use a dual mesh coil, and all five are draw-activated with adjustable airflow. The hardware across the range is more similar than the model names suggest.

Blade vs Blast: The Same Device, Two Flavour Lineups

The WAKA Blade 50000 and WAKA Blast 50000 are not two tiers of the same product. On every specification WAKA publishes they are identical: 33 ml of e-liquid, 50 mg/ml nicotine, a 900 mAh Type-C battery, a dual mesh coil, a full-side smart display showing battery and liquid level, triple-mode adjustment and airflow control. Both sell for AED 50.

What separates them is the flavour catalogue. The Blade carries 20 flavours; the Blast carries 10, eight of which also appear on the Blade. In practice that makes the choice simple: pick the model that stocks the flavour you want, because the device itself is the same in your hand.

The two flavours unique to the Blast are Fresh Mint and Blueberry Raspberry. Everything else on the Blast is also on the Blade.

SoPro 10000 vs SoPro 20000: Identical Hardware, Double the Claim

The SoPro 10000 and SoPro 20000 both hold 18 ml of e-liquid, both run an 850 mAh Type-C battery, both use a mesh coil, and both offer a regular and a boost power mode. The 20000 claims twice as many puffs from the same volume of liquid and costs AED 5 more.

Model	Capacity	Battery	Claimed puffs	ml per 1,000	Price
SoPro 10000	18 ml	850 mAh	10,000	1.80 ml	AED 45
SoPro 20000	18 ml	850 mAh	20,000	0.90 ml	AED 50

Since the liquid volume is the fixed quantity, the practical difference between the two is the flavour range — 8 on the 10000 against 18 on the 20000 — and the 30 mg/ml option, which only the 10000 offers. Why headline puff figures diverge like this across the market is covered in the puff count guide.

Three Naming Quirks Worth Knowing

WAKA does not name the same flavour consistently across its models, which makes some flavours look scarcer than they are.

• Kiwi Passion Fruit Guava appears on four models under three names — “Kiwi Passion Fruit Guava” on the Blade and SoPro 10000, “Guava Kiwi Passion Fruit” on the Blast, and “Kiwi Passion Guava” on the SoPro 20000. It is the same tropical blend.
• Double Apple and Two Apple are the same shisha-style profile: the Blade calls it Double Apple, the PA25000 calls it Two Apple. Neither model carries both.
• Mint is split three ways. Fresh Mint is on four models, Miami Mint is Blade-only, and Blue Raspberry Mint and Blue Razz Mint are berry-mint blends on the SoPro 20000 and PA25000 respectively. If you want a plain mint, Fresh Mint is the one to look for.

The Flavours You Can Only Get on One Model

Sixteen of the 42 flavours are exclusive to a single device. If one of these is the flavour you want, the model choice is made for you.

Model	Exclusive flavours
Blade 50000	Blueberry Ice · Cranberry Cherry · Double Apple · Mango Ice · Miami Mint · Peach Ice · Pineapple Passion Fruit · Pistachio Delight · Strawberry Mango · Strawberry Raspberry
PA25000	Blue Razz Mint · Mango Peach · Sea Salt Lemon · Sour Apple · Triple Mango · Two Apple · VCT
SoPro 20000	Blue Raspberry Mint · Blueberry Cranberry Cherry · Icy Mineral Water · Raspberry Dark · Strawberry Grape · Vimbull Ice · Watermelon Cherry
SoPro 10000	Apple Surge · Grape Apple · Lychee Burst
Blast 50000	None — every Blast flavour also appears on another model

Blueberry Ice is Blade-only. It is one of the most searched WAKA flavours in the UAE and it exists on exactly one device in the range, so a search for “WAKA 50000 Blueberry Ice” resolves to the Blade and nothing else.

Cost per Millilitre Across the WAKA Range

Because liquid capacity is the fixed physical quantity, cost per millilitre is the comparison that holds. Calculated from the single-device price.

Model	Price	Capacity	Cost per ml
Blade 50000	AED 50	33 ml	AED 1.52
Blast 50000	AED 50	33 ml	AED 1.52
PA25000	AED 40	22 ml	AED 1.82
SoPro 10000	AED 45	18 ml	AED 2.50
SoPro 20000	AED 50	18 ml	AED 2.78

The Blade and Blast hold nearly twice the liquid of a SoPro for the same AED 50, which makes them the strongest value in the range on capacity alone. The PA25000, currently reduced from AED 45 to AED 40, sits between the two groups on both price and volume.

Nicotine Strength and the UAE Limit

Every WAKA model sold in the UAE is specified at 50 mg/ml, with one exception: the SoPro 10000 is also offered at 30 mg/ml. Clause 4.2.4 of UAE.S 5030:2018 states that nicotine concentration in e-liquid must be “less than or equal to 20 milligrams per millilitre”, and clause 4.2.5 caps an integrated tank at 10 ml.

Read both figures on the packaging before buying, whichever brand you are looking at. The full requirements — nicotine, capacity, bilingual warnings and the 18+ rule — are set out in the UAE vaping laws hub and the 20 mg/ml limit explainer.

To compare WAKA against the other disposable brands stocked in the UAE, see the disposable vape buying guide. Delivery times and cut-offs are on the delivery page.

Frequently Asked Questions

Which WAKA has Blueberry Ice?

The WAKA Blade 50000 is the only model in the UAE range that carries Blueberry Ice. It is one of twenty flavours on the Blade and does not appear on the Blast, PA25000, SoPro 20000 or SoPro 10000. The Blade holds 33 ml at 50 mg/ml and sells for AED 50.

What is the difference between the WAKA Blade and the WAKA Blast?

Only the flavours. Both hold 33 ml of e-liquid at 50 mg/ml, both use a 900 mAh Type-C battery with a dual mesh coil and a full-side smart display, and both cost AED 50. The Blade offers 20 flavours and the Blast offers 10, of which eight also appear on the Blade.

How much is a WAKA 50000 in the UAE?

AED 50 for a single device, whether you choose the Blade 50000 or the Blast 50000. At 33 ml of e-liquid that works out at AED 1.52 per millilitre, which is the lowest figure in the WAKA range. The PA25000 is currently the cheapest single device at AED 40.

How many flavours does WAKA have in the UAE?

Forty-two distinct flavours across the five models, though several appear under different names on different devices. The Blade carries the widest selection at 20, followed by the PA25000 and SoPro 20000 at 18 each, the Blast at 10 and the SoPro 10000 at 8.

Is the WAKA SoPro 20000 better than the SoPro 10000?

They hold the same 18 ml of e-liquid and use the same 850 mAh battery and mesh coil, so the practical differences are the flavour range and the nicotine options. The SoPro 20000 offers 18 flavours at 50 mg/ml for AED 50; the SoPro 10000 offers 8 flavours and adds a 30 mg/ml option for AED 45.

Are WAKA vapes rechargeable?

Yes. All five WAKA models sold in the UAE recharge over USB Type-C — the Blade and Blast at 900 mAh, the SoPro models at 850 mAh and the PA25000 at 800 mAh. Recharging refills the battery only; none of the devices can be refilled with e-liquid.

Which WAKA flavour is available on every model?

Dark Cherry is the only flavour stocked across all five WAKA devices. Fresh Mint comes closest behind it, appearing on four of the five — every model except the Blade, which carries Miami Mint instead. Watermelon Chill and Strawberry Kiwi also appear on four models each.

Does WAKA make a shisha-flavoured disposable?

Yes, under two different names. The Blade 50000 lists it as Double Apple and the PA25000 lists it as Two Apple; both describe the same shisha-style apple profile. Neither the Blast nor either SoPro model carries it.

The Short Version

Choose a WAKA by flavour first and model second, because the hardware barely varies across the range. Blade and Blast are the same 33 ml device with different catalogues, the two SoPro models share an 18 ml tank, and the PA25000 sits between them at AED 40. If you want Blueberry Ice, the Blade is the only option.

Disposable vapes are designed to provide a simple, convenient, and maintenance-free vaping experience. Unlike refillable vape kits, they come pre-filled with e-liquid and are ready to use straight out of the package. Although they require far less upkeep than reusable devices, proper handling and basic maintenance practices can help ensure optimal performance, consistent flavour, and improved safety throughout the device’s lifespan.

Many users assume disposable vapes require no care at all, but improper storage, rough handling, and incorrect charging practices for rechargeable disposable models can affect both performance and longevity. By following a few simple guidelines, you can enjoy a smoother vaping experience while reducing the risk of leaks, damage, or battery-related issues.

Store Your Disposable Vape Properly

Proper storage is one of the easiest ways to maintain the quality of a disposable vape.

Always keep the device in a cool, dry location away from direct sunlight and excessive heat. High temperatures can thin the e-liquid, increasing the chance of leaks and affecting flavour quality. Excessive heat may also place unnecessary stress on the built-in lithium-ion battery.

Cold temperatures should also be avoided whenever possible. Extremely low temperatures can thicken the e-liquid, making it harder for the wick to absorb the liquid efficiently and reducing vapour production.

Whenever possible, store your disposable vape upright. This helps keep the internal wick properly saturated while reducing the likelihood of e-liquid collecting around the airflow system.

Avoid Physical Damage

Although disposable vapes are compact and portable, they are not designed to withstand heavy impacts.

Dropping the device onto hard surfaces can damage the internal battery, airflow chamber, or heating element. Even if no visible damage is present, the internal components may become misaligned, leading to poor performance or device failure.

Avoid carrying disposable vapes loosely in pockets or bags alongside keys, coins, or other sharp objects that may scratch or damage the mouthpiece.

Using a protective carrying case can help reduce accidental damage while travelling.

Keep the Mouthpiece Clean

The mouthpiece is the part of the device that comes into direct contact with your lips, making regular cleaning important for both hygiene and performance.

Use a clean, dry tissue or soft cloth to wipe the mouthpiece periodically. Dust, pocket lint, and other debris can accumulate over time, potentially affecting airflow.

Avoid using water or cleaning chemicals directly on the device, as moisture may enter the airflow channel and damage internal components.

If the airflow seems restricted, gently inspect the air intake holes and remove any visible debris without inserting sharp objects into the device.

Protect the Battery

Most disposable vapes contain built-in lithium-ion batteries. While these batteries are generally reliable, proper handling is essential for safe operation.

Never puncture, crush, bend, or attempt to open the device. Damaging the battery can create serious safety hazards.

Avoid exposing disposable vapes to direct sunlight for extended periods, especially inside parked vehicles where temperatures can rise significantly.

Do not leave the device near open flames, heaters, or other heat sources.

If the disposable vape becomes unusually hot during use or charging, stop using it immediately.

Charge Rechargeable Disposable Vapes Correctly

Many modern disposable vapes feature rechargeable batteries that allow users to consume all of the pre-filled e-liquid before disposing of the device.

When charging a rechargeable disposable vape:

• Use the recommended charging cable.
• Charge on a flat, non-flammable surface.
• Avoid charging overnight.
• Disconnect the charger once the battery reaches full capacity.
• Never use damaged charging cables.

Overcharging may reduce battery lifespan and increase unnecessary heat generation.

If the device does not charge properly, inspect the charging port for dust or debris before assuming the battery has failed.

Prevent Leaks

Although disposable vapes are sealed units, leaks can occasionally occur due to improper storage or extreme temperatures.

To reduce the chance of leaking:

• Store the device upright whenever possible.
• Avoid exposing it to excessive heat.
• Do not leave the vape inside a hot vehicle.
• Avoid squeezing or applying pressure to the device.
• Handle it gently during transport.

If you notice e-liquid around the mouthpiece, simply wipe it away with a clean tissue before use.

Use the Device Correctly

Proper vaping technique can improve both performance and longevity.

Take slow, gentle puffs instead of sharp, forceful inhales. Most disposable vapes are activated automatically by airflow, meaning there is no need to inhale aggressively.

Avoid chain vaping by taking multiple long puffs in rapid succession. Continuous use may cause the coil to overheat, resulting in reduced flavour or a burnt taste.

Allow a few seconds between puffs so the wick has time to absorb more e-liquid.

Recognise When the Device Is Empty

A disposable vape is designed to be discarded once its e-liquid supply is depleted.

Common signs that the device has reached the end of its lifespan include:

• Noticeably weaker flavour
• Reduced vapour production
• Burnt or dry taste
• Blinking indicator light
• No vapour despite a charged battery

Continuing to use an empty disposable vape may damage the heating element and produce an unpleasant vaping experience.

Handle with Care During Travel

Disposable vapes are convenient travel companions, but proper precautions should still be taken.

Keep the device protected from excessive pressure inside bags or luggage.

Avoid placing heavy items on top of the vape.

If travelling by air, follow the airline’s rules regarding electronic devices and lithium-ion batteries. Disposable vapes should generally be carried in hand luggage rather than checked baggage, as required by many airlines.

Dispose of Used Disposable Vapes Responsibly

Disposable vapes contain batteries, electronic components, and plastic materials that should not be thrown into regular household rubbish whenever dedicated recycling facilities are available.

Many local recycling programmes and electronic waste collection centres accept devices containing lithium-ion batteries.

Before disposal:

• Ensure the device is no longer usable.
• Do not attempt to dismantle it.
• Never burn or incinerate disposable vapes.
• Follow local regulations for electronic waste disposal.

Responsible disposal helps reduce environmental impact while supporting safer recycling practices.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

Many disposable vape problems result from improper handling rather than manufacturing defects.

Avoid these common mistakes:

Disposable vapes have become one of the most popular vaping options for adult users in Dubai. Their convenience, portability, and ease of use make them an attractive choice for both first-time vapers and experienced users looking for a hassle-free experience. Unlike traditional vape kits that require refilling and coil replacements, disposable vapes come pre-filled with e-liquid and are ready to use straight out of the package.

The growing popularity of disposable vape devices has also led to an impressive variety of brands, flavors, nicotine strengths, and puff counts. Whether you enjoy fruity blends, refreshing mint flavors, or classic tobacco profiles, there is a disposable vape designed to suit your preferences.

This guide explains everything you need to know about disposable vapes in Dubai, including how they work, their benefits, available features, popular flavors, and tips for choosing the right device.

What Is a Disposable Vape?

A disposable vape is a compact electronic vaping device designed for single use. It contains a built-in battery and a pre-filled e-liquid reservoir. Once the battery or e-liquid is depleted, the entire device is replaced rather than refilled or recharged, although some newer disposable models include rechargeable batteries to maximize the use of the e-liquid.

Disposable vapes are designed to provide a simple vaping experience without requiring technical knowledge or maintenance.

Why Disposable Vapes Are Popular in Dubai

Many adult users choose disposable vapes because they combine convenience with reliable performance. They eliminate the need for carrying bottles of e-liquid, replacing coils, or adjusting device settings.

Some of the main reasons for their popularity include:

• Ready to use immediately
• Lightweight and portable
• No refilling required
• No complicated setup
• Wide range of flavors
• Multiple nicotine strengths
• Compact design for travel
• Minimal maintenance

These features make disposable devices suitable for users who prefer a straightforward vaping experience.

How Disposable Vapes Work

Disposable vapes are designed with simplicity in mind. Most models are draw-activated, meaning the device produces vapor automatically when you inhale through the mouthpiece.

Inside the device are several key components:

• Integrated battery
• Pre-filled e-liquid reservoir
• Heating coil
• Cotton wick
• Mouthpiece

When you inhale, the battery powers the heating element, which vaporizes the e-liquid to produce flavorful vapor.
