The Ultimate Guide to Big Puff Vapes: Longer-Lasting, Cost-Effective Vaping
In the wake of the UK government’s announcement to ban disposable vapes starting June 1, 2025, a new breed of vaping devices has emerged, offering significantly more puffs than the standard 600-puff disposables. These “big vapes” or “big puff bars” come in the form of disposable varieties and prefilled pod kits, utilizing innovative designs to provide more puffs while adhering to TPD requirements for e-liquid pod capacity.
For vapers, this means longer enjoyment and better value for money, as you won’t need to purchase a new device as frequently. You’ll also be able to enjoy the same user-friendly functionality that makes disposable vaping so appealing.
In this comprehensive guide, we’ll dive deep into the world of big puff kits, exploring how they work, the different types available, and how top vape brands have revolutionized the vaping experience while remaining fully compliant with regulations. Let’s get started!
How Do Big Puff Vapes Work?
Long-lasting big puff vapes employ two innovative solutions to deliver kits with much greater e-liquid capacity, some offering up to thirty times the use of a regular disposable:
- Multiple pre-filled pods: These kits house several 2ml pods, allowing for extended use.
- 10ml e-liquid container: This design features a larger bottle that clicks into the device and tops up a 2ml pod.
This evolutionary redesign of the disposable concept proves more cost-effective and provides a kit that delivers days of consistent performance without sacrificing the hassle-free functionality that makes instant-use disposables so popular.
Big Puff Vapes vs. 600-Puff Disposables
The primary difference between a big vape bar and a regular disposable vape kit lies in the number of puffs provided. Traditional disposable bars only have a prefilled 2ml pod that delivers a maximum of 600 puffs, lasting about two days for the average vaper. Once empty, users need to purchase a new kit.
In contrast, big puff bars provide up to a week’s worth of use. While they typically cost two to three times more than a regular disposable, they offer substantial long-term savings due to their longevity. Most of these devices provide up to 6,000 puffs, with some designs promising an impressive 10,000 puffs per unit.
Big puff bars remain as user-friendly as disposables, utilizing inhale activation for effortless vaping once the pods are installed. The auto-draw functionality mimics the sensation of drawing on a cigarette through mouth-to-lung (MTL) vaping.
How many puffs are in a big vape?
Puff counts vary among big puff vapes, with options ranging from 1,200 to 10,000 puffs. Some common examples include:
