Elf Bar MoonNight Review — 40,000 Puffs at 5% Nicotine

Overview

The Elf Bar MoonNight is a statement device. At 40,000 advertised puffs with 5% nicotine, it's one of the highest-capacity disposable vapes available anywhere — not just in Canada. At $44.99, the per-puff economics make it one of the most cost-effective options on the market.

Elf Bar (also known as EBDESIGN in some markets) has built a reputation for reliable devices and strong flavour profiles. The MoonNight is their current flagship disposable, and after extensive testing, it lives up to the hype in most areas.

Build and Design

The MoonNight is noticeably larger than standard disposable vapes — you're getting 40,000 puffs worth of e-liquid in there, so the size is expected. It's still pocket-friendly but sits at the upper end of what you'd comfortably carry.

The device has a clean, minimalist design. No display screen (unlike the Geek Bar Pulse X), no mode switching. You charge it, you draw from it, it works. Some users prefer this simplicity over feature-packed alternatives.

USB-C charging means any modern phone cable works. Charge time from empty is roughly 45-60 minutes for a full charge, and a single charge lasts through several days of moderate use.

Puff Count — Is 40,000 Real?

The headline number is 40,000 puffs. In real-world testing with moderate use (300-400 puffs per day, varying draw lengths), the MoonNight lasted approximately 75-85 days before flavour degradation became noticeable. That puts the realistic puff count in the 28,000-35,000 range.

That's below the advertised 40,000, but still remarkable for a disposable device. For context, even at the low end of 28,000 puffs, the MoonNight outlasts the Geek Bar Pulse X by roughly 40%.

The device doesn't suddenly stop working — flavour gradually weakens and vapour production decreases as it approaches end of life. You'll know it's time for a replacement before it fully dies.

Flavour Reviews

The MoonNight's biggest advantage is flavour variety. With 12 options, there's something for every preference. Here's how they rank after testing:

Top Tier:

Watermelon Ice — The standout. Sweet, recognizable watermelon with a balanced menthol finish. Not artificial-tasting, not overly sweet. This is the flavour to start with if you're new to the MoonNight.

Blueberry Ice — Rich, dark blueberry with moderate cooling. More natural-tasting than candy-like blueberry flavours from other brands. A strong daily driver for fruit fans.

Kiwi Passion Fruit Guava — A tropical blend that actually works. The kiwi leads, passion fruit adds tartness, and guava rounds it out. Complex but not confusing.

Strong:

Strawberry Kiwi Ice — Classic pairing done well. The strawberry is dominant with kiwi as a supporting note. Light ice on the exhale.

Peach Mango Watermelon — Sweet and tropical. The watermelon keeps it from being too heavy. Good for users who prefer sweeter profiles.

Triple Mango — Three layers of mango intensity. Very sweet, very tropical. Not for everyone, but mango lovers will appreciate the commitment to the flavour.

Solid:

Blueberry Raspberry Watermelon — A berry medley that's pleasant but doesn't stand out. Safe choice if you like mixed fruit.

Cola Ice — Surprisingly accurate cola flavour with cooling. Unique enough to be worth trying. The carbonation effect on the tongue is subtle but noticeable.

Strawberry Watermelon — Similar to Strawberry Kiwi Ice but without the kiwi tartness. Simpler, sweeter.

Niche:

Coffee — A true coffee flavour, not sweet mocha. Tastes like iced black coffee. Polarising — you'll either love it or never buy it again.

Lychee Juicy Peach — Floral and fragrant. The lychee is authentic but can be too perfumey for Western palates. Worth trying if you enjoy Asian-inspired flavours.

Blackberry Cranberry — Tart and slightly bitter compared to the sweeter options. A good palate cleanser if you rotate flavours.

5% Nicotine Performance

The nicotine delivery is consistent and satisfying throughout the device's lifespan. At 5% (50mg/mL) nicotine salt, the hit is smooth with no harshness. Three to five puffs provides noticeable satisfaction comparable to finishing a cigarette.

One area where the MoonNight differs from the Pulse X: without a pulse/boost mode, the nicotine delivery is constant. You can't dial it up for a stronger hit. For most users this is fine — the standard output is already at the 5% ceiling — but if you want variable intensity, the Pulse X offers that flexibility.

Battery Life

The rechargeable battery is sized appropriately for a 40,000-puff device. In practice, you'll need to charge it every 2-4 days depending on usage. Charging takes under an hour and the device gets through a full day of heavy use on a single charge.

The battery outlasts the e-liquid, so you'll never be stuck with a dead battery and remaining liquid. The device will always run out of e-liquid before the battery fails permanently.

Value Analysis

At $44.99 for roughly 30,000+ real-world puffs, the MoonNight costs approximately $1.12 per thousand puffs (advertised) or $1.50 per thousand puffs (realistic). For a moderate user at 300 puffs per day, that's roughly $0.45 per day.

Compare that to:

  • Geek Bar Pulse X: ~$0.70/day
  • 2% disposables from retail: ~$2-4/day
  • Cigarettes (pack a day): ~$15-18/day
  • The MoonNight is the most economical 5% vaping option available in Canada.

    Who Should Buy the MoonNight

    Ideal for:

  • Users who prioritize longevity and value over features
  • Anyone who wants the lowest daily cost for 5% nicotine
  • Users who prefer a simple, no-frills device
  • Flavour explorers who want 12 options to choose from
  • Not ideal for:

  • Users who want a display screen showing battery and e-liquid levels
  • Anyone who wants variable power modes
  • Users who prefer a more compact device
  • Verdict

    The Elf Bar MoonNight delivers exactly what it promises — massive puff count, consistent 5% nicotine, and strong flavour options at a competitive price. It won't wow you with features, but it will outlast virtually every other disposable vape on the market while costing less per day.

    If value and longevity are your priorities, the MoonNight is the best 5% disposable vape you can buy in Canada.
