The single-piece Geek Bar with 30 flavors, read from the maker's numbers and 83 buyer reviews.
6 min read
Key Takeaways
- Geek Bar rates the Pulse X 2 at 50,000 puffs from 18 mL of e-liquid, which is about 2,778 rated puffs per mL by the maker's figure.
- The battery is a 1000mAh cell with USB-C charging, and the few buyers who mention it call it adequate rather than remarkable.
- 83 reviews across eight sites average 4.63 stars, and flavor is named in 51 of them, far ahead of any other theme.
- The Pulse in the name is a power setting, and buyers describe switching between two power levels from the screen.
- The one recurring caveat is charging: a buyer on elementvape.com notes you cannot draw on it while it charges.
What the Geek Bar Pulse X 2 Is
The Geek Bar Pulse X 2 50K is the single-piece disposable in the Geek Bar range: no pod to swap and no battery section to detach. It carries 18 mL of e-liquid, a 1000mAh battery with a USB-C port, a dual mesh coil and an adjustable airflow. The maker rates it at 50,000 puffs, and DirectVape lists it in 30 flavors.
| Spec | Geek Bar Pulse X 2 50K |
|---|---|
| Rated Puffs | 50,000 |
| E-Liquid | 18 mL |
| Battery | 1000mAh |
| Coil | Dual mesh |
| Airflow | Adjustable |
| Charging | USB-C |
| Flavors Listed | 30 |
Battery and Charging
The cell is rated at 1000mAh and charges over USB-C, and like every disposable at this fill it is built to be recharged across the 18 mL rather than carried through on one charge. Only six of 83 reviews mention the battery and eight mention charging, which on a device with this many reviews is itself a signal: buyers are not fighting it.
The clearest note comes from a buyer on elementvape.com: "the flavor is great and the battery life is more than good enough. Still unable to use it while charging though." That second sentence is the caveat to know before you buy. A buyer on vapordna.com adds a reason for the drain: "Good flavor. Because of all the lights when you take a hit, you need to charge it more often." The device lights up on a draw, and that costs charge.
E-Liquid and Flavor
18 mL at a 50,000-puff rating is about 2,778 rated puffs per mL, the maker's figure. The 30 flavors sort into six families. The Bull line carries five: Blue Razz Bull, Coco Berry Bull, Peach Bull, Strawberry Bull and Watermelon Bull. Slush covers Wild Cherry Slush, Grape Slush and Peach Slush. Ice and freeze covers Blue Razz Ice, Watermelon Ice, Miami Mint, Banana Taffy Freeze and Stone Freeze. Blueberry Jam and Raspberry Jam are the two jams. Candy is the biggest group, with Sour Straws, Blue Rancher, Lemon Heads, Pink & Blue, Dualicious, Strawberry B-Burst and the two Fcuking Fab flavors. The rest are straight fruit and lemonade: White Peach Raspberry, Blackberry Blueberry, Strawberry Watermelon, Blueberry Watermelon, Pink Berry Lemonade, Punch and Watermelon Crush.
Across 83 reviews only Strawberry Bull is named by exact catalog name, once, and buyers more often describe a flavor than name it. Sour Straws gets the warmest words. A buyer on elementvape.com writes "Sour straws is my favorite flavor. It has a nice light taste that is not overpowering." The other side is a buyer who got a profile they did not expect. On elementvape.com again: "the flavor wasn't what I was expecting, devices fine I did last me longer than other Vapes."
Draw, Airflow and the Screen
The airflow is adjustable and the coil is a dual mesh. The Pulse in the name is a power setting, and buyers describe two power levels chosen from the screen, with Pulse as the stronger. Fourteen of 83 reviews mention that screen, which makes it the third most discussed thing about the device. A buyer on vapesourcing.com writes "The upgraded screen looks sharp, and switching power levels feels quick and responsive." The lights a buyer above mentions are part of the same design: the device shows you it is firing.
What Buyers Say
A 4.63 average across 83 reviews, most of them on vapesourcing.com, elementvape.com, vapordna.com and vapewh.com, is a strong score, and the themes are lopsided in a way that tells you what the device is for. Flavor at 51 mentions and longevity at 19 lead, with the screen at 14 behind them; battery, charging, build and draw barely register. Buyers are writing about what it tastes like and how long it runs.
The critical reviews are about strength and taste rather than hardware. A buyer on vapordna.com writes, in a one-star review, "The nic was strong and gross." That is a reaction to the e-liquid, and it is the kind of complaint a 30-flavor list will always draw from someone. My reading is that the Pulse X 2 is a device buyers trust on the hardware and argue about on the flavor, which is the better problem for a disposable to have.
Where It Sits
Within the Geek Bar range DirectVape lists, the Pulse X 2 sits above the Pulse X 25K, whose name carries its 25,000-puff rating, and below the Mate 60K, which is a kit with a detachable battery rather than a single piece. On the wider channel it belongs in the 50,000-puff class. If you want the plain Geek Bar with no pod to swap and no battery section to manage, this is the one.
Pick It If, Skip It If
Pick it if:
- You want the single-piece Geek Bar with 18 mL, an adjustable airflow and a second power setting.
- You want a wide flavor list: 30 names across the Bull line, slush, ice, jam, candy and fruit.
- You want a device whose 83 reviews barely mention the battery.
Skip it if:
- You need to draw on a device while it charges; a buyer on elementvape.com reports you cannot.
- You want a quiet device; the lights on each draw are part of the design and cost some charge.
- You have found other Geek Bars too strong; the one-star review here is about strength.
The Verdict
The Pulse X 2 earns its place as the plain Geek Bar: 18 mL, 1000mAh, a dual mesh coil, an adjustable airflow, a pulse setting and 30 flavors, rated at 50,000 puffs. The reviews are about flavor and run time because the hardware gives buyers little else to write about, and the two caveats, no draw while charging and lights that cost a little battery, are small. If you want one Geek Bar and do not want to think about pods or battery sections, this is the one to pick. If a detachable battery appeals, the Mate 60K is the step sideways.
