Elf Bar Mate 500 Refillable Pods Cheap | Refillable Elf Bar Pods

Elf Bar Mate 500 refillable pods, three per pack, supplied empty. You fill them with whatever 10ml nic salt you fancy and off you go. That is the point of Elf Bar Mate 500 pods in refillable form: no fixed flavour, and a running cost well under prefilled. Each has a built-in 1.2ohm mesh coil, and what reviewers rate most is the draw, a tight cigarette-style pull that stays warm not hot.

Which E-Liquid Goes In Elf Bar Mate 500 Refillable Pods

One resistance, 1.2ohm, so there is no ohm to pick. The juice is the choice, and it is narrow: 50/50 or higher PG. High-VG shortfill will not wick through a coil this tight.

• Coming off cigarettes (15+ a day): 20mg nic salt, the UK ceiling.
• Cutting down (6 to 14 a day): 10mg nic salt, or 12mg freebase.
• Light or tapering: 5mg salt or 3mg freebase.

The obvious pairing is ELFLIQ 10ml nic salts, 50/50 and made for this coil. Sharp fruits, menthols and lemonades work best; heavy custards gunk the coil.

How To Fill And Look After Them

1. Fill: lift the silicone plug and drip e-liquid down the inside wall, stopping short of the top.
2. Seal: push the plug fully home. A plug sitting proud is the main cause of a leaking pod.
3. Prime: stand the filled pod five minutes before the first draw. Vapers on Reddit repeat this constantly; skip it and you burn the wick immediately.
4. Fit it right: the pod goes in one way only, curved side forward. If it needs forcing, turn it round.
5. Draw gently: a slow MTL pull gives the flavour; dragging hard floods the coil.
6. Top up early: refill at the quarter mark, never vape it dry.

How Long Do Elf Bar Mate 500 Refill Pods Last?

Five to ten refills, or roughly a week of steady use. Be straight about it though: pod life here is batchy. UK vapers keep reporting that some run for ages while the odd one goes burnt or weeps early, and several reckon the newer larger pods do not last as well as the old 1.6ml ones. Prime them properly and most are fine.

The money still stacks up. A 10ml bottle gives about five fills, so a fill costs pennies against the couple of pounds a prefilled pod costs. On 10ml a week, Elf Bar Mate 500 replacement pods run at near a third the cost of prefilled, even swapping a pod weekly.

Refillable Or Prefilled For The Mate 500?

Elf Bar Mate P1 prefilled pods come ready-filled with 2ml of 20mg nic salt in 30-plus flavours; these cost far less per ml but need filling. The same device takes either. For a refillable MTL pod with more control, the Vaporesso Xros Nano replacement pods give five resistances instead of one.

Elf Bar Mate 500 Refillable Pods FAQs

Are Elf Bar Mate 500 pods refillable or prefilled?

These are refillable and arrive empty, three to a pack. Elf Bar Mate 500 prefilled pods also exist, sold as the P1 range with 2ml of 20mg nic salt already in them, so check which you order.

How do you refill an Elf Bar Mate 500 pod?

Lift the silicone plug on the side, add e-liquid slowly, press it firmly home and let it stand five minutes. Fill down the side wall, not the middle, or you flood the chimney.

Do Elf Bar Mate 500 pods fit the Elfa or Elfa Pro?

No. The Mate pod and the Elfa pod are different shapes and are not interchangeable. It comes up constantly on Reddit because both carry the Elf Bar name, but the Mate pod will not seat in an Elfa.

Why is my Elf Bar Mate 500 pod leaking or gurgling?

Usually overfilling, or a plug not fully home. Fill to just below the top of the window, seal it properly and store the device upright. Leaking is the most common gripe here, so get the routine right from the first fill.

Why does my Elf Bar Mate 500 pod taste burnt?

Almost always a dry wick: no five-minute soak after filling, chain-vaping faster than the cotton re-wets, or running it too low. If it survives a fresh fill and a proper rest, the coil has gone.

My pod is stuck in the device. What now?

A known quirk, not a fault. The pods sit tight and grip after first use. Rock it side to side from the base rather than pulling straight up, never by the mouthpiece.

Can I use any e-liquid in the Elf Bar Mate 500 pod?

Any 50/50 or higher-PG e-liquid up to 20mg, the UK limit for a 10ml bottle. Avoid high-VG shortfills; too thick for a 1.2ohm MTL coil.
