🎯 BEST DEAL — £12.99 — 1700mAh Battery!
Elf Bar ELFX 2 Pod Kit
Elf Bar ELFX 2 Pod Kit: refillable MTL and RDL pod kit, 1700mAh battery, three power modes, £12.99. Best for ex-smokers and ex-disposable users who want days between charges without learning a mod.
The Elf Bar ELFX 2 Pod Kit is the 2026 second-generation ELFX: a 1700mAh battery, up from 1000mAh, and one button that cycles Eco, Normal and Power modes. Two ELFX Pod 2.0 refillable pods come in the box: 0.8Ω for a tight, cigarette-style draw (MTL, mouth to lung) and 0.6Ω for a looser, warmer draw (RDL, restricted direct lung).
Most pod kits at this price need charging daily; this one does not. It is not ideal for anyone wanting exact wattage control or sub-ohm clouds. Versus the ELFX Mega, the ELFX 2 is half the price and slimmer but has no screen and a smaller battery.
🔥 Real-World Battery Life: Ecigclick’s review confirms the ELFX 2 “absolutely sails through a full day with ease, even when using the 0.6Ω pod and vaping exclusively in power mode.” The 1700mAh battery delivers two to four days of typical use in Normal mode, and up to seven days for light vapers. Power mode with the 0.6Ω pod may need daily charging.
Key Facts
The ELFX 2 has a 1700mAh built-in battery rated by Elf Bar for up to seven days of typical use.
The ELFX 2 fires between 10W and 30W across Eco, Normal and Power modes.
The ELFX 2 ships with 2ml ELFX Pod 2.0 pods in 0.8Ω and 0.6Ω and accepts every ELFX-series pod.
The ELFX 2 charges over USB-C at 5V/1A and has no cable in the box.
The 0.4Ω pod needed for the full 30W output is sold separately and is not included.
Dimensions: 121.8 × 25.9 × 15.5mm | Weight: 57g.
Key Specs Customers Check
🔋 1700mAh Built-In Battery Two to four days for most users, up to seven for light use. A genuine upgrade from the original ELFX’s 1000mAh — 70% more capacity. Ecigclick’s reviewer noted the difference immediately: “I would struggle to get a full days worth of vaping with the original ELFX but the ELFX 2 absolutely sails through a full day with ease.”
⚡ 10W to 30W, Three Modes Eco (green light), Normal (white), Power (purple); no menus or screen. Three quick presses cycles modes. Five presses turns the device on or off. The chipset auto-selects output based on pod resistance.
💧 2ml ELFX Pod 2.0 Pods Included 0.8Ω and 0.6Ω dual mesh pods in the box. Coil is built in; replace the whole pod when it burns out. Top-fill with child-resistant dual plug that also cuts pocket leaks.
💨 MTL to RDL, Adjustable Airflow A side slider tightens or opens the draw. Closed down, the draw feels satisfying and cigarette-like. Opened up, it becomes noticeably airier, producing warmer vapour and larger clouds.
🔌 USB-C, 5V/1A Charging Around one hour from flat on any USB-C phone cable. Elf Bar lists the charge rate at 5V/1A. No cable is included in the box — any standard USB-C cable works.
🔥 QUAQ DURA Dual Mesh Coils Elf Bar rates Pod 2.0 for up to three times the life of the first pod. Dual mesh alternates heating between two meshes, extending coil lifespan and ensuring consistent vapour and flavour delivery from first puff to last.
🔒 5-Layer Leak Protection A V-shaped condensation channel and absorption layer mean less spitback and fewer wet pockets. Elf Bar describes it as a “5A leakproof design.”
📱 Tidal Light Indicator An immersive LED light effect around the power button shows the active mode: Green is Eco, White is Normal, Purple is Power. Three white bars above the button show battery level (>60%, 20-60%, <20%).
🏗️ Aluminium Alloy Body One-piece aluminium alloy construction gives the device a more premium feel than a typical plastic pod system. Lightweight enough for daily use but sturdy in the hand. Dimensions: 121.8 × 25.9 × 15.5mm, weight 57g.

Pick Your Inhale: MTL or RDL
MTL is a tight draw held in the mouth first, like a cigarette. RDL is looser and warmer, closer to a big-puff disposable.
💨 0.8Ω Pod, Eco or Normal, Airflow Half Closed MTL. Best with 10mg or 20mg nic salts for anyone leaving cigarettes or 600-puff bars. Ecigclick's reviewer found the 0.8Ω pod "better suited to mouth to lung vaping, making this pod a solid choice for high strength nicotine salt e-liquid."
💨 0.6Ω Pod, Normal or Power, Airflow Open RDL. Denser vapour, best with 10mg salts or 6mg to 12mg 50/50 freebase. The 0.6Ω pod is the one to go for if you want a warm, restricted direct-to-lung hit.
💡 Pro Tip — Power Mode Uses More Battery: Higher settings drain power quicker. Most users will settle on Normal mode for the sweet spot between flavour, battery performance, and vapour production. Eco stretches battery life for long days out; Power is for when you want a stronger hit.
Coils and E-Liquid Pairing
Both pods want 50/50 e-liquid. Shortfills at 70% VG or more are too thick for the mesh wick and are the main cause of dry hits on this kit.
🧂 Heavy Smokers (20 a day or more) 0.8Ω pod with 20mg ELFLIQ nic salts — the liquid Elf Bar makes for this kit. Ideal for a cigarette-like draw and satisfying nicotine delivery.
🧂 Moderate Smokers 0.8Ω with 10mg salts, or 0.6Ω with 10mg for a warmer hit. The 0.6Ω pod delivers a warmer vape and is better suited to restricted direct lung.
🧂 Light Smokers or Tapering 0.6Ω with 5mg salts or 6mg 50/50 freebase. Sweet dessert flavours coat the mesh faster. Any 4 for £10 nic salt keeps liquid at about 25p per ml.
⚠️ E-Liquid Warning: Using 70VG/30PG shortfill in either pod will clog the mesh wick and cause dry hits. Stick to 50/50 e-liquid or nic salts. Elf Bar's own ELFLIQ range is designed specifically for the ELFX series and will give you the closest match to the disposable flavours you know.
Battery, Pod Life and Running Cost
Battery: Two to four days in Normal mode; Power roughly halves that. Charging takes around one hour at 5V/1A.
Pod life: One 2ml fill lasts one to two days; each pod lasts one to three weeks depending on mode, liquid sweetness and whether it is run dry. The original ELFX pod lasted three weeks in Ecigclick's testing, and the ELFX 2 boasts similar numbers.
Weekly cost: About £2.66 per pod (three for £7.99) plus 10ml of nic salt at £2.50: under £5.50 a week even at a pod a week, against £12 to £20 on 600-puff disposables.
💷 Cost Per Week Breakdown: From 1 October 2026, UK Vaping Products Duty adds about £2.20 per 10ml bottle, so refilling stays the cheaper route. At £2.66 per pod plus £2.50 for 10ml of nic salt, you're looking at under £5.50 a week — against £12 to £20 on disposables.
Compatibility and Refills
Standard refill: ELFX 2.0 replacement pods, 3-pack in 0.6Ω or 0.8Ω. The older ELFX replacement pods also fit.
Pod 2.0 fits: ELFX, ELFX Mini, ELFX Pro, ELFX Ultra and ELFX 2.
Pod 2.0 does NOT fit: the ELFX Mega, which uses its own 10ml Mega pod system.
The 0.4Ω pod needed for the full 30W output is sold separately and is not included in the kit.
⚠️ Compatibility Check: The ELFX 2 accepts every ELFX-series pod — both original ELFX pods and ELFX Pod 2.0. However, Pod 2.0 does not fit the ELFX Mega, which uses a completely different pod system. Check your device name before ordering replacement pods.

How to Set Up the ELFX 2
Unbox and remove plugs: Pull the pod off and lift both silicone plugs.
Fill with 50/50 e-liquid to just below the top of the side channels, tilting so the narrow channels fill, then press both plugs home. Leave a small air gap to prevent leaking.
Prime the coil: Wait five minutes so the mesh wicks. Skipping this is the number one cause of a burnt first hit. A scorched mesh coil cannot be recovered.
Click the pod on: The pod connects magnetically to the device.
Turn on: Five presses turns the device on or off. Three presses changes mode.
Vape: Start on Eco or Normal and draw. The device fires automatically on inhale.
⚠️ Priming is Everything: The five-minute wait is non-negotiable. Rushing this step is the #1 cause of burnt hits on a new pod. A scorched QUAQ DURA coil cannot be recovered — it will taste burnt for its entire life. Take the extra few minutes at the start and you'll get a week or more of clean flavour from each pod.
How to Make It Last Longer
Top up before the side channels empty; the tinted pod hides the level, so check it against light.
Use Eco or Normal daily and save Power for short bursts.
Charge at one red bar (under 20%) on a 1A port, and wipe the pod contacts weekly.
Don't chain vape; leave a few seconds between draws so the coil can re-wick.
Store upright at room temperature to prevent leaking and keep the coil saturated.
What UK Vapers Report
UK retailer reviews and the July 2026 Ecigclick review agree the battery lasts two days or more where the old ELFX needed nightly charging. Complaints, with fixes: a few early units died within a week (claim a replacement); the tinted pod hides the liquid level (check against light); some pods spit when overfilled (leave an air gap).
