What Strength ELFLIQ Should You Choose?
The three ELFLIQ nicotine strengths match how much you smoked or vaped before. Elf Bar puts 20mg at heavier smokers, and 20mg ELFLIQ is the usual pick for pack-a-day ex-smokers and anyone moving from 20mg Elf Bar prefilled pods. It gives the firmest throat hit and the quickest nicotine, and it is the same strength as an Elf Bar 600 pod.
10mg ELFLIQ suits lighter smokers: Elf Bar suggests it for around 5 to 15 cigarettes a day, and it softens the hit while keeping the salt smoothness. 5mg ELFLIQ is the gentlest of the three, for light vapers and anyone stepping down, and Elf Bar makes three strengths so you can come down gradually.
There is no 0mg ELFLIQ. The whole range is nicotine salt, so 5mg is the lowest you can go. For nicotine-free vaping, you need a 0mg shortfill instead.
Nic salt feels smoother on the throat than freebase nicotine at the same strength, which the guide to nic salts goes into. The salt formula uses an acid, often benzoic acid, to lower the pH, so 20mg ELFLIQ feels far less harsh than 20mg of freebase.

Every ELFLIQ Flavour in the UK
ELFLIQ covers six flavour families: fruit, menthol, iced, drinks, dessert and tobacco. Not every flavour comes in every strength, so a flavour might be available in 20mg but not 5mg. The full ELFLIQ UK list is below, to find the exact flavour and strength you want.

What Kits Work With ELFLIQ?
ELFLIQ is sold as a bottled e-liquid only, with no prefilled version. Elf Bar makes the 10ml bottle for refillable MTL pod kits and recommends coils from 0.8 to 1.4 ohm.
Elf Bar's own refillable kits are the natural pairing. The ELFA Turbo is sold by Elf Bar as the ELFLIQ ELFA Turbo, with 2ml refillable pods and a 550mAh battery.
Elf Bar also shows the ELFX Ultra with ELFLIQ, filling its 2ml top fill pods.
ELFLIQ also fills any other MTL refillable pod kit with a side or top fill port, from Vaporesso and Uwell to OXVA.

Are ELFLIQ Nic Salts Good?
ELFLIQ nic salts are a good fit if you like the flavour of Elf Bar pods and want to refill your own kit. Elf Bar makes them with the same e-liquids as its prefilled pods and kits, in 5mg, 10mg and 20mg.
What works well
- The same e-liquids Elf Bar puts in its prefilled pods and kits
- Three strengths, 5mg, 10mg and 20mg, to step down over time
- A 50/50 mix made for MTL pod kits from 0.8 to 1.4 ohm
- Approximately 3,000 puffs from a 10ml bottle, by Elf Bar's own figure
- TPD compliant, with a child-resistant cap and a tamper-evident seal
What to know first
- No 0mg version: 5mg is the lowest
- Not made for sub-ohm or DTL kits
- 10ml bottles only, the UK limit for nicotine e-liquid
- It needs a refillable kit and cannot go in prefilled pods

Is ELFLIQ the Same as Elf Bar?
Yes, in the e-liquid. Elf Bar says ELFLIQ nic salts are the same e-liquids found in its prefilled pods and vape kits, and that the flavours match the Elf Bar 600 series. The difference is the format: ELFLIQ comes in a 10ml bottle for a refillable kit, while Elf Bar pods arrive sealed and filled.
Elf Bar rates a 10ml bottle at approximately 3,000 puffs, about the same as five Elf Bar 600 pods. Because you refill rather than replace, the cost per millilitre drops once you are filling your own kit. That makes ELFLIQ the vape juice that tastes like Elf Bar, rather than an e-liquid made to be similar.
Anyone switching from Elf Bar disposables to a refillable kit can keep the same flavours this way.

How to Choose Your First ELFLIQ Bottle
- Pick your nicotine strength first. Match it to what you smoked or to your previous prefilled pod: 20mg for heavier ex-smokers, 10mg for lighter habits, 5mg for stepping down.
- Choose a flavour family, then narrow it down to the exact flavour using the list above.
- Check your refillable kit is an MTL pod kit with a coil between 0.8 and 1.4 ohm.
- Start with a single bottle of any new flavour, then buy more once you know it suits you.
