Taking a deep dive into the latest offering from the well-established EB DESIGN (Formely Elf Bar), we're going to put the newly released BC5000 Ultra disposable vape under the microscope. We're exploring how its taste profiles compare to the same flavors from the traditional BC5000.

EB DESIGN (Formely Elf Bar) BC5000 ULTRA UPGRADES

The Ultra variant of the BC5000 introduces a series of notable enhancements, including an innovative mesh coil technology and superior wicking capabilities. The device's shell has also been substantially strengthened. The new model, unlike the old BC5000 with its susceptible plastic bottom piece that could shatter upon impact, boasts a fortified design that's less prone to breakage when dropped. For individuals like myself who tend to drop their vape devices frequently, this upgrade is a significant benefit.

DESIGN AND FEATURES OF EB DESIGN (Formely Elf Bar) ULTRA

Sporting a metallic sheen, the BC5000 Ultra carries the same dimensions as its predecessor, the BC5000. Its sleek appearance, coupled with the introduction of the groundbreaking QUAQ coil technology, takes the vaping experience to the next level.

The BC5000 Ultra, like its forerunner, is easy to hold and carry around while multitasking. The rounded edges give the device a comfortable grip, while its metallic finish imparts a trendy look. It's compact enough to slip into a pocket or bag, measuring 3.5in tall x 1.5in wide, .75in thick, with a .5in oval drip tip extending from the top.

Charging is straightforward with a Type-C port located at the bottom, similar to the BC5000. Airflow is managed by three slits at the device's base, which are slightly larger on the Ultra, although the airflow feels relatively identical. Charging times have been reported to average around 1.5 hours from a completely drained state.

Its exterior, a matte metal shell, seems more robust than the BC5000's standard casing. The aesthetic has been refreshed from the pastel hues to a more sophisticated metallic gradient, giving it a more premium electronic device feel.

As for the draw, it's silent, smooth, and consistent. The sound of the vape juice crackling as you take a puff on the Ultra is somewhat more noticeable. Thanks to the new QUAQ Tech Mesh Coil and wicking technology, you can expect a boost in flavor and more efficient juice usage, leading to reduced power consumption and longer periods between charges.

EB DESIGN (Formely Elf Bar) ULTRA VS BC5000 – PERFORMANCE COMPARISON

I subjected both devices to a series of tests to measure how they perform under stress. The aim was to evaluate the effects of overheating, potential flavor alteration during continuous usage, and physical durability upon being dropped.

In the case of the BC5000, after several continuous draws, the vapor production was somewhat underwhelming due to the restricted airflow. Still, it ensured that the vape juice didn't burn, and the device remained cool.

For the Ultra, however, I found it to be more accommodating to demanding usage. The device continued to perform admirably, even during heavy draws, and the vape juice flavor stayed consistent throughout.

When comparing the two, although the airflow is similar, the vapor volume is much greater in the Ultra. This results in a more substantial and tastier draw. The device's improvements definitely add to the overall experience and make for a more enjoyable vaping session.

One other feature that struck me about the Ultra was its improved battery life. While both models sport a 650mAh battery, the newer BC5000 Ultra seemed to last longer under similar usage patterns. This can be attributed to the efficient mesh coil, which uses less power while delivering a high-quality vape experience.

Finally, in terms of durability, the Ultra model outshone the older BC5000. After a few accidental drops, the Ultra remained unscathed thanks to its fortified design, while the BC5000 showed signs of wear and tear.
