If you're looking for an easy, convenient way to enjoy your vape experience, disposable vapes might be the perfect solution. They're cost-effective, require zero vaping knowledge and are highly accessible.

But how long do they last? It's a question many people ask, and we have all of the answers in this post.

So, let's get straight to it!

What are disposable vapes?

You've probably seen electronic cigarettes everywhere and wondered how they work. Once you get the hang of them, vape pens and mods are easy to use and maintain, but some people find them inconvenient, as they have to refill the e-liquid and change the coils regularly.

Disposable vape devices are, quite simply, single-use vapes that come pre-filled with e-liquid. Once the pen is empty, you throw it away and start using a new one.

They're straightforward to use – you just need to take them out of the packaging and start vaping. No filling, no charging and no maintenance are required.

The benefits of disposable vapes

There are several reasons why people opt for disposable vapes over other types of vaping devices. Here are some of the most popular benefits:

  • Incredibly easy to use: As we mentioned before, you only need to take them out of the packaging and start vaping. Disposable vapes mimic cigarettes in many ways, making them a highly popular choice for ex-smokers.
  • They're cost-effective: Disposable vapes are cheaper than buying a vape pen or mod outright as well as the e-liquids and coils that go with it. A disposable could be the answer if you don't want to invest in a quality kit, however using them long-term can become more expensive that regular vape kits.
  • Highly accessible: You can find disposable vapes in most convenience stores, petrol stations and online retailers making them easy to get hold if you run out.
  • You don't need any vaping knowledge: Unlike vape pens and mods, you don't need to know how to use disposable vapes. With pens and mods, you need to understand coils and wattages, which some people don't like.
  • Disposable vapes offer a lot of flavours: The best thing about disposable vapes is that they come in a variety of flavours and nicotine strengths; so you're sure to find one you like. From flavours such as ice cotton candy to recreations of your favourite dessert, you'll love how intense these delicious flavours are as they usually feature double flavour concentration than regular e-liquids.

How long do disposable vapes last?

Now that we've covered what disposable vapes are and some of the benefits of using them, let's answer the question: how long do they last?

Well, there's no simple answer to that question, as many factors contribute to how long a disposable vape will last.

Let's take a look at them.

How accurate are the number of puffs?

When you buy a disposable vape, it will usually estimate how many puffs you can get from it. Elf Bars usually average 600 puffs, while Geek Bars can have up to 550 per disposable vape.

However, this number is only an estimate and your mileage may vary.

Everyone draws on their vape differently, so it's difficult to say how much use you'll get from your disposable vape. For example, if you take longer drags, your vape might run out faster than people who take shorter ones.

Minimising your vape draws and ensuring you use it evenly instead of chain vaping will extend its lifespan.

The frequency in which you vape

For some people a few hits of their disposable vape a day is more than enough, but if you're transitioning from smoking to vaping, you'll inevitably use more. Heavy vapers tend to take longer draws and use their kit more frequently.

Someone who's used to smoking 20 cigarettes a day will notice their Elf Bar or Geek Bar runs out quicker than someone who uses it infrequently.

The temperature you vape at

If you enjoy vaping at high wattages, you might go through your traditional vape quicker than someone who likes to stick to a low or mid-wattage. The hotter the temperature, the more e-liquid is used up.

However, disposable vapes have predetermined temperatures, so you don't have the choice to turn the wattage up or down.

Nicotine salts vs traditional e-liquids

The type of e-liquid in your disposable vape also affects how long it lasts. Disposable vapes are usually prefilled with nicotine salt e-liquids, designed for smokers transitioning to vaping as nicotine salt is easier for your body to absorb.

These liquids tend to have a higher nicotine concentration and provide a smoother throat hit. As such, they don't last as long as regular freebase nicotine e-liquids because you use less of it per puff.

However, if flavour is your priority, you can't go wrong with nicotine salts because they offer a lot of intensity per draw with a smooth throat hit.

The battery capacity

The size of the battery in your disposable vape also has an impact on how long it will last. A larger battery means more vapour and a longer lifespan, while a smaller one offers the opposite.

For example, the 550mAh battery in an Elf Bar will give you slightly more use than the 500mAh battery in a Geek Bar. As you can't alter the battery in your disposable vape, you should choose one that suits your needs.

However, buying a disposable vape from IVG will give you approximately 800 puffs, so all three are superior disposables with many flavours and excellent value for money.

The bottom line

As you can see, many factors affect how long your disposable vape will last.

From the type of e-liquid it uses to the size of its battery, each element impacts how much use you'll get out of it.

However, one thing is for sure – when you buy a disposable vape, you're getting maximum convenience and great flavour. With so many flavours to experiment with, switching from smoking to a disposable vape can help you kick your tobacco habit.
