Can Elf Bars Be Fake?
Many fake Elf Bars are in circulation, often being sold at a cheaper price than the real thing. It can be very difficult to spot an Elf Bar, but there are ways you can do so.

First you can look at its packaging and compare it with an authentic Elf Bar. Normally, the logo and barcode on the fake Elf Bar will be bigger or smaller than the real ones. If you don’t have a real Elf Bar with you, you can look up pictures online to compare them.

A real Elf Bar will have an EAN barcode on the side of the packaging. You will also notice a holographic sticker to prove its legitimacy. If you look hard, the holographic sticker on the Elf bar is highly detailed and intricate.

Crucially, if you want to triple check whether or not an Elf Bar is real, you can enter the security code you find on side of the Elf Bar into the official website, to check the product's authenticity.

So, you might be asking yourself - are fake Elf Bars dangerous? Why do we need to care if an Elf Bar is fake or not? What does it matter?

The Dangers Of Fake Elf Bars
A fake Elf Bar can be very dangerous depending on how it was made. The real vape kits have been approved by appropriate regulatory agencies and their legitimacy is double checked by distributors - such as JM Wholesale - to ensure everything is above board.

When these checks are not done, the Elf Bar can fail in multiple ways. For example, the battery could be faulty and break quickly or overheat. The tank could leak. The e-liquid might not be fit for human consumption and could contain just about anything, including illegal amounts of nicotine.

The faulty components could make vaping difficult, unpleasant or literally dangerous for you to use.

How Much Nicotine in An Elf Bar?
There is an upper limit as to how much nicotine can be put into vaping kits, and Elf Bar follows these rules as per regulations. This means a real Elf Bar will contain no more than 20mg of nicotine. This is 2% of the maximum e-liquid limit allowed in the vape pen (2ml). This is the equivalent of 48 cigarettes.

In a fake Elf Bar, you may not know how much nicotine is included. It could be over the regulatory limit which can make you feel unwell. Or it could be under the amount stated on the packet. For example, it might say 20mg, but really it only has 5mg, and this means you don't get as much nicotine as you require.

Similarly, a genuine Elf Bar will be able to more or less guarantee its puff count. For example, if your Elf Bar says you'll get 600 puffs, this is what you will get. But a counterfeit Elf Bar might state 600 puffs only for it to run out after 300.
