Is the current era where the best and most popular disposable vapes kick out a “mere” 5000 puffs coming to a close?

The adult market has embraced longer-lasting disposable vapes that are USB-C rechargeable. It is a competitive market and stacked with worthy, if similarly performing and functioning, disposable devices. Mi-Pod is the master distributor for many of these top brands and our disposable vapes collection has the best inventory and selection.

Smaller disposables that cannot be recharged have fallen totally by the wayside as disposable vapes like EBCreate BC5000, Lost Mary OS5000 and others have embraced a compact and effective form factor. 

When it comes to disposable vape designs there is always room for improvement, or at least super-sizing. The makers of the EB BC5000 and Lost Mary OS5000 are promoting a newer and longer-lasting model: the RabBeats RC10000. If you are a vaper who is seeking delicious flavor, long lasting performance and user-friendly e-liquid and battery life monitors, the RabBeats RC10000 Disposable Vape Collection is worth checking out.  

For a complete run-down of the available flavors and a closer look, check out our RabBeats RC10000 review. The Best Orion Bar 7500 Flavors deep-dive is as comprehensive of an overview as you will find on this critically acclaimed disposable vape.

Super-Sized Disposable Vapes

The Lost Vape Orion Bar 7500 was an earlier of adopter of the bigger is better philosophy and is the benchmark against with the RabBeats RC10000 will be tested.

The RabBeats RC10000, comes from the makers of such wildly popular disposables as the EBCreate BC5000, Lost Mary MO5000, and Funky Republic Ti7000, is a leap forward in puff count and technology when compared to its popular predecessors.  

It is important to keep in mind that longer lasting disposable vapes may deliver many more puffs, but they are unwieldy. An EBCreate BC5000 is 79mm x 41mm x 19mm. The Lost Mary OS5000 is the same size. That translates into a height of 3.11" including the mouthpiece. The Orion Bar 7500 has a height of 3.30” (84mm) including the mouthpiece and the RabBeats RC10000 is a millimeter taller or 3.34” (85mm).  

With larger e-liquid capacities, similarly sized batteries, and compact shapes that fit easily in your palm, The Orion Bar 7500 and RabBeats RC10000 provide a nearly identical mouth-to-lung salt nicotine vaping experience to a BC5000-style vape.  Their advantage is their superior capacity and features designed to enhance the user experience.  

Advantages of Longer-Lasting Disposable Vapes 

The disposable vapes arms race shows no signs of slowing. Feats of endurance and price-performance are possible because of the use of rechargeable batteries. Disposable vapes don’t need an enormous battery that keeps pace with their expanded e-liquid capacity. This is where the non-chargeable pen-style disposable vapes failed, as a battery over 1100mAh is both expensive and bulky. 

A rechargeable disposable vape just need a battery that can last a day or two. Puff count of course is the key metric and is linked to e-liquid capacity. The RabBeats RC10000 has an e-liquid capacity of 18ml which is good for an estimated 10,000 puffs. A nic salt bottle holds 30ml and a Juul Pod 0.7ml for reference.

The popular and established Lost Orion Bar 7500 was at one-time the super heavyweight of disposable vapes. Now with competition like the Flonq Max, Snoopy Smoke Extra Tank, IceWave 8500, and RabBeats RC1000, it is in a much more crowded neighborhood. It also holds 18ml, but the puff count is more conservatively estimated at 7500.

RabBeats RC10000 Review

The RabBeats RC10000 is not just a Lost Mary OS5000 with a bigger tank of e-liquid. It features several technological upgrades that make it more than just a minor evolution of the disposable vape form. It is also an attractive device. It shimmers, with a multi-layered coating that changes in appearance in different lighting conditions. More important user interface improvements include monitoring systems for e-liquid and battery life, and a mesh coil anti-burn technology.

The value of an e-liquid indicator is obvious in such a long-lasting device. With a sophisticated coil limiting the flavor drop-off as you near the bottom of the tank, the RabBeats keeps you apprised of when your long-lasting device is going to give up the ghost.

RabBeats RC10000 Performance

Anti-burn technology is a huge deal for a disposable that kicks out 10,000 puffs. While worthy of acclaim, the only major knock on the old BC5000 design is that near the end of the line the coil would sometimes be compromised by burning and kick out sub-par flavor. This is a bigger deal, and threat, in a disposable that lasts twice as long and RabBeats addressed the issue head-on with an innovative coil design.

In terms of vapor production and flavor density, the RabBeats RC10000 is spot-on. Rechargeable disposable vapes all fall within a very narrow performance window, using batteries with the same voltage and wattage they are confined to a narrow range of coil resistances. But the devil is in the details. Airflow and coil design are separate the winners from the also rans. The RabBeats RC10000 churns out dense and satisfying vapor.

In the same vein, most disposable vapes come in a similar range of flavors. Naturally, the makers of the OS5000 and BC5000 have hit it out of the park with their takes on the legacy flavors of disposable vaping.

Lost Vape Orion Bar 7500

With a battery and e-liquid reservoir festooned with colorful art, all locked beneath what looks like an old Go Pro2 case, the Lost Vape Orion Bar 7500 certain cuts a unique figure in what was once a world of cookie-cutter pastel lozenges.

But the selling point of the Orion Bar 7500 was never its duckbill mouthpiece or unique look, it holds 18ml of e-liquid and was designed to outlast the competition. Even as new competition sprouts up, it remains competitive thanks to its excellent design.

Lost Vape Orion Bar 7500 Performance

The 650mah battery of the Orion Bar 7500 is bog standard. Disposable vapes do not have the advanced chipsets found in mods, so the quality of the puff is impacted by the level of charge in the battery. When firing on all cylinders, the Orion Bar 7500 has a very effective draw-activation mechanism that fires off vapor immediately.

The airflow control switch is useful. On many disposable vapes, you can cover various holes and entry points to restrict how much air in entering each puff. Less air equals more flavor. Where the airflow is at its most restrictive or wide open, this will always be a mouth-to-lung (MTL) vape. If you are looking for massive vapor clouds blown directly into your lungs, also called direct-to-lung or DL vaping, a disposable vape was never the right choice.  But you can manipulate the air flow enough to suit your preferences.

Verdict: Orion Bar 7500 versus RabBeats RC10000

On paper, these are very evenly matched devices. The different in height is a single millimeter. The batteries are close to identical in capacity and have the same standard output. The nicotine strengths are the same at 50mg, and there is a big overlap in flavors. Both Orion Bar and RabBeats have outstanding versions of the fruit and beverage inspired flavors that adult vapers prefer.

But the RabBeats RC10000 gets the nod for several reasons, and the loose estimations of puff count for a pair of 18ml devices have not been factored in. There really is no loser as these are both outstanding devices and truth be told, if the mouthpieces were the same shape comparing the overlapping flavor profiles in a blind taste test would challenge the most adept palates in the world.

Winner: RabBeats RC10000

It is crucial that vaping put its best foot forward. Under siege from powerful enemies in the form of Bloomberg funded vaping prohibitionist groups and Big Tobacco. While not as kitschy as its smaller stablemate the Lost Vape OB5500, the Orion Bar 7500 is a bit garish in appearance.

It is likely that there are potential initiates who would never be caught using a device with such lurid images wrapped inside of a plastic case. While this is not fair, the Orion Bar 7500 delivers amazing flavor and performance, recognizing the embattled nature of vaping is required if we are to reverse the public relations damage that is inflicted daily by well-funded lobbyists. 

The RabBeats RC10000 also wins on merit as well, it delivers the incomparable flavor and vapor purity that has made Lost Mary, Funky Republic, and EBCreate products so popular. The use of indicator lights for e-liquid and battery levels is a game changer and the flavors are all bangers.

Other Disposable Long Lasting Disposable Vapes

There are several additional rivals in this space that were not reviewed today. They are very competitive devices in terms of flavor, satisfaction and puff count.  We have provided images below of their specifications and links to their flavor collection.

Both are right there in terms of puff counts. As far as flavors, IceWave uses flavors crafted by American master formulators and laden with cool ice. The Flonq Max also features nic salts formulated for the American palate and has some of the finest flavors on the market. Both fire off honest puffs, with the rather more garish appearance of the IceWave X8500 being the major concern about that excellent disposable vape design. 

• Flonq Max
• IceWave X8500

Popularity of Disposable Vapes

The popularity of disposable vapes is easy to understand. They deliver exactly what adult vapers want: potent nic salts, the flavors they prefer, easy to use draw-activation, and no complications like refilling. They are ready to use of the box, making them effective as a point of sale product that requires no consumer education or even a bottle of juice to squeeze in the tank. The most popular disposable vapes are rechargeable, with a battery designed for a day or so of use.

Easily recharged with a USB-C port, the lithium-ion battery provides plenty of performance and mesh coils, typically with a resistance of approximately 1.0ohms, generate a smooth mouth-to-lung vaping experience.

FDA Study: Vape Flavor Bans Increase Tobacco Sales 

The availability of flavors in not to be underestimated when compared to the pricier to operate prefilled pods sold by Big Tobacco, which are only available in tobacco flavors. A recent FDA sponsored study, E-Cigarette Flavor Restrictions’ Effects on Tobacco Product Sales, found that areas with vape flavors bans show a direct correlation between fewer vapes sold and a rise in cigarette sales. They even put a number on it. For every banned Mint Juul Pod 4-pack no longer sold, three additional packs of cigarettes are purchased.

In other words, cigarette manufacturers are the primary beneficiary when poorly conceived efforts to restrict adult access to the flavors they prefer are implemented. Anyone who vapes could have predicted this.

It turns out artificial strawberry and pineapple confection flavors are a heck of a lot more appealing to adults vapers that artificial tobacco flavors. Especially if one is seeking to distance themselves from combustibles. The world is swimming in artificial fruit flavors in every form, from gum to soda pop to cough medicine, but there isn’t much of a demand for items that taste like artificial tobacco.

Disposing of Disposable Vapes 

While disposable vapes offer a convenient and user-friendly vaping experience, it's essential to use and dispose of these devices responsibly. They are designed for adults over 21 and must be kept out of the reach of children and pets. Use them as directed in designated areas is crucial. Vaping suffered a black eye in its earliest days when far too many vapers saw fit to unleash vapor clouds in enclosed public areas like restaurants, taking advantage of indoor smoking laws not keeping apace of the technology.

That era is obviously long gone in 2023. But we are dealing with a new issue: litter and waste generated by disposable vapes.

Disposable vapes are powered by lithium-ion batteries and should be treated with the same respect as any electronic device. Don't spike them on the ground to test their durability, don’t drop them from the second floor see if they crack, don't litter, don't leave them in the gutter or wrench them apart to peek inside. The safe operation and disposal of disposables is crucial.

Improper disposal not only contributes to environmental pollution but reflects poorly on an already embattled industry. All manner of untrue myths swirl around disposable vapes and the adults that use them. Why add to the issue by littering these often brightly colored and easily recognizable devices?

Here are some steps to ensure you're disposing of your disposable vape responsibly:

1. Deplete the Battery: Drain the battery as much as possible, balancing the e-liquid and battery levels is easier on a device like RabBeats RC10000 which monitors both. 
2. Locate a Recycling Facility: Many electronic waste recycling facilities accept disposable vapes. Look up local recycling programs in your area and drop off your used device there.
3. Dispose of in Regular Waste, if Necessary: If you can't find a suitable recycling facility, dispose of the vape in your regular household waste. However, avoid littering at all costs.
4. Spread Awareness: Encourage fellow vapers to dispose of their disposable vapes responsibly. As a community, we can contribute to a cleaner and healthier planet.
