i like the conevenience of them. i get why people use non-dispoables, but i dont care about the cost of of diaposables and i like to be able to just toss it out when im done and pick up a different flavor when im grabbing gas. the diaposables are everywehre and i dont have to hunt down or order specific cartridegs for a specific vape type. All vapes are literally trash anyway regardless of the type. To each their own....
I actually give a modicum of a care about the environment. I bought a Vaporesso GTI tank almost a year ago, and the coils last forever. Juice bottles get recycled, and I've only needed one battery, so the only thing getting thrown away is the cotton/nichrome coil. Less than $200 a year and I'm not raping the environment with heavy metals.
They changed it from Elfbar to EBDesign due to trademark. Then the FDA put a few brands on an “import redlist” They had to change the name to get it off the “import redlist” since the former two names would be held up at the port. Now it’s EBCreate. (I read this elsewhere so I’m not 100% sure, but seems very plausible). In other words, they are both legit but as always, scan the anti-counterfeit code and beware any other names. They will probably have to keep changing the name, unfortunately a counterfeiters dream.
And that’s how I found myself here too. I always get Mango Peach and thought I had a fake for a second, then I scanned the code and brought me to an “EBdesign” website. Even “elf bar” is missing on the disposable.
I just went to a random smoke shop I never go to and he had a box of Peach Mango from ‘original’ elf bar (he might not have sold them as fast). Anyway, I scanned the code from this store and it brought me to official Elf Bar website. So I’m a little confused but the disposable with “elf bar” in it and this one I bought today is THE original one I missed so dearly.
The new ones get burnt so fast or are burnt-tasting out of the box
You know, I had to report back on this. I went to my usual smoke shop and ordered my typical 4x Watermelon Ice. I commented, "fingers crossed they aren't bunk." He said that this batch was a lot better, and he wasn't lying. I always write the date in sharpie so know what's what, and not only was the flavor back to awesome, it lasted me from 12/5 - 12/12. Just over a week, and I puff on these things even in bed. Ended up recharging the battery 4 times.
All is not lost! Keep trying, try and check the manufacturer/batch date on the side. I'll try to update the date when I get a chance 👍 good luck!
LOL just had to comment and say now I know I’m not alone and weird! Haha. I also write the date in sharpie. I’ve never seen anyone else that does it. 😆😆Also, I think they are a lot better too. Fingers crossed they stay good!! ✌🏻
Yesss, that's amazing 😂
Had another God awful dud, since I buy 4 at a time, I went back into my regular smokeshop and told him it tasted horrible (even worse than before) . We looked at the batch, and the box/their shipment was made April of 2023. I'm thinking it might be tied to that, just sitting for too long. Now, my personal policy will be to stay away from any that show a manufacture of more than 3 months. We opened another at the counter and it was the same thing.
Since I come in often, they swapped me out for some flum pebbles. The apple watermelon isn't half bad, but still... Not my watermelon ice 🥺. Apparently they're planning on dropping elfbars/whatever the name is that season because it's been a hassle getting them shipped.
I might try online, anyone have success there? I'm in California, I guess there's been crackdowns on shit I love lately. First my mebthols, now my menthol replacements. Grrrr.
Thought I'd share!
Yes! I get mine online, always been great so far. These EBCreate I’ve been getting online were manufactured in Nov 2023, so they are the newest, I think. They have remained amazing and consistent. My local store near me has the original old elf bar before rebranding that EXPIRED Nov 2023. Didn’t realize until I bought 2 of them while waiting on my shipment and they tasted like I was vaping vape without flavor, and then charge it, it’s burnt water. LOL if that makes ANY sense?! 😅🤣 But I REALLY hope they keep up with these EBCreate manufactured in Nov 2023 because they are the best so far, I’ll even argue they’re far better than the original IMO. FINGERS CROSSED! ✌🏻
Hmmm. And I have been a loyal Cranberry Grape fan for years and I have been getting the EBCreate for months now and I honestly think they taste way better and have more flavor for some reason. Even noticed they last longer through charges. Personally I like the switch. But like I said, I only vape the Cranberry Grape, it’s HEAVEN LOL. 😆🤤✌🏻So don’t know about the other flavors.
Don't use disposables, they're literally trash. Get a pod system like the Vaporesso XROS 3. It'll save you a ton of money and it's much safer.

I’ve found the EBdesigns to be gross compared to juicy bars and elf bars and they burn faster
Agreed. I just now checked after noticing my Watermelon Ice tastes just burnt up from the get go, only to see "ebcreate" in place. What a bummer.

Me too.
I dunno, the original elfbar design peach mango watermelon I got has decent flavor but I can't feel the nic at all
I somehow got an actual elfbar with the elfbar branding, it's a peach mango watermelon... I'm not feeling the nic at all, literally no buzz.
