Product Specs

The vape kit we’ll be looking at today is the ELFBAR Mate500 — A durable, sleek and rechargeable vape kit. The ELFBAR Mate500 is lightweight and feels comfortable and intuitive in the hand. The ELFBAR Mate500 is also user-friendly and features inhale activation which makes it a low maintenance kit to set up. The ELFBAR Mate500 is compatible with the 2ml P1 Prefilled Pods (sold separately) which were made to banish nicotine cravings and help power you through the day. Before attaching the P1 Prefilled Pod, simply push the bottom on the bottom of the pod to activate. Then the ELFBAR Mate500’s device's inhale activation will do the rest. The P1 Prefilled Pods have a magnetic pod connection which makes them easy to remove and apply. The P1 Prefilled Pods also offer leakfree protection keeping leaks at bay under impacts and regular use. Unique E-liquid Coil Separation Technology (ECS) isolates the tank and the coil on its own to increase the level of flavour received from the ELFBAR Mate500. The increase in flavour is due to the separation of the vapes coil and pod tank which equates to the lack of exposure of air to the e-liquid during the manufacturing process which degrades e-liquid flavour. Type-C charging ensures a full charge within 2 hours of plugging in the device resulting in less wait times in between charges. It comes equipped with an integrated 1.2ohm coil giving you a restricted inhale and provides a constant voltage output that gives you consistent flavour from start to finish.

How Is The Elfbar Mate500 Different From Other Pod Kits On The Market?

The ELFBAR Mat500 features E-liquid Coil Separation Technology (ECS) which is the first ever to be introduced to the UK. ECS provides a pure and increased amount of flavour to your vaping experience. Each of the P1 Prefilled Pods also comes with dual coils, which are also a first for the UK vape market, providing a clean and flavourful inhale and exhale with each puff and giving you that first-time hit, every time.

How Does The Elfbar Mate500 Vape?

Right out of the box, the ELFBAR Mate500’s vape kit body is matte and smooth to the touch and made from a durable 7075 aluminum, which is the strongest grade of steel around. It’s (prefilled) pods come in the following flavours: Mango, Watermelon, Blueberry, Grape, Energy, Kiwi Passion Fruit Guava, Pink Lemonade and Blue Razz Lemonade. We opted to try two ELFBAR Mate500 pre-filled flavour pods in Grape and Kiwi Passion Fruit.

We tried the grape flavour pods first which offered a rich and sugary flavour that sent a beckoning of flavour across the tongue but also delivered a smooth hit of nicotine salt. On the inhale, the bold taste of crunchy and seedless grapes are very prominent, followed by subtle cotton candy flavours on the exhale.

Then we tried Kiwi Passion Fruit Guava which gave us tropical vibes amidst the cold and gloomy British weather. The first flavour that is introduced to the tongue on the inhale was passion fruit followed by fresh kiwi at the end of the exhale, in which a lingering tart flavour followed. We found the nicotine hit was almost immediate with both pods, and each pod lasted us around 2 days with moderate use. Out of the two flavours we tried, grape was a favourite as it gave off a rich and well balanced flavour.

How To Activate The P1 Prefilled Pods?

Upon purchasing the ELFBAR Mate500, you will also need to purchase the P1 Prefilled Pods. The P1 Prefilled Pods provide rich flavour giving you a luxurious vaping experience. But before you can sit back, relax and enjoy them, you’ll have to activate them first. To make things even more simple, you’ll only need to activate the P1 Prefilled Pod once. Remove the pod from the package and push the button on the bottom of the pod to activate. Then attach the P1 Prefilled Pod to your ELFBAR Mate500 and it’s ready to go.
