What is the Al Fakher Crown Bar?
The Al Fakher Crown Bar is a line of pre-filled, rechargeable disposable vapes made by Al Fakher, the shisha tobacco company based in the UAE. Crown Bars use Al Fakher’s shisha flavours, such as Two Apple, Grape with Mint and Lemon with Mint, and most models give a loose, direct-to-lung draw that feels closer to a hookah than a regular disposable.
The range has grown from small 8,000-puff devices to large models with screens, adjustable power and, on the E-Hose X, a hose. It sits at the centre of the UAE’s shisha-style disposable category, which is much bigger here than in most other markets.

Al Fakher Crown Bar models explained
Each Al Fakher Crown Bar model trades size against price. The sections below explain what sets each one apart, using the features shown on UAE and manufacturer listings.
Crown Bar 8000
The Crown Bar 8000 is the smallest and cheapest model in the range, listed at AED 42-45 for 8,000 rated puffs at 5 mg/ml. It is a simple draw-activated device with no buttons, sold in Al Fakher’s classic shisha flavours and some fruit blends. Retailers list Pro and Crystal versions with the same puff rating.
Crown Bar 12000 (DTL and Sound)
The 12,000-puff Crown Bar is built for direct-to-lung (DTL) puffs, and the Sound edition was listed at AED 55. UAE listings show both 5 mg and 50 mg versions, so the strength on the box matters. Some shops describe it as an “integrated hookah” because of its shisha-style draw.
Crown Bar Hypermax 15K and Pro Max 15K
The Hypermax 15K was listed at AED 45-60 in 5 mg, 6 mg and 20 mg versions, and an Ice Adjust version lets you change the cooling effect. International listings for the closely related Pro Max 15K show a 22 ml tank, a 600 mAh battery, dual 0.6-ohm mesh coils and a screen showing battery and e-liquid levels.
Crown Bar Ultra 25K
The Ultra 25K was listed at AED 45-55 for 25,000 rated puffs, in a 5 mg strength. It is a common middle choice for people who want a larger device without the size of the 40K-60K models. It recharges by USB-C, and the cable is usually not included.
Crown Bar Hyper Max 30K
The Hyper Max 30K was listed at AED 50, but only in a 50 mg version at the retailer we found it at. At 50 mg/ml it is above the UAE nicotine cap, so it does not meet the UAE standard in that strength.
Crown Bar Mega Max and Ultra 40K
Two 40,000-puff models appear in UAE listings: the Mega Max at 6 mg and the Ultra 40K at 50 mg, priced AED 45-65. The Mega Max is the compliant choice of the two by strength. Check the name and strength carefully, because the two look alike in shop menus.
Crown Bar Cloud Box and Cloud Force Max 50K
The Cloud Box 50K was listed at AED 55 (down from AED 65) in a 20 mg version, and the Cloud Force Max 50K at AED 55 in 5 mg. International listings for the Cloud Force Max show a 60 ml pre-filled tank, a 0.2-ohm mesh coil, DTL airflow and a screen for battery and e-liquid levels.
Crown Bar E-Hose X 60K
The E-Hose X is the largest Al Fakher Crown Bar, rated at 60,000 puffs and listed at AED 55-70 in a 6 mg strength. It was released in January 2026 with a 1,000 mAh rechargeable battery, USB-C charging, adjustable airflow and a hose, so it is used more like a portable hookah than a pocket vape.
How much does an Al Fakher Crown Bar cost in the UAE?
An Al Fakher Crown Bar costs AED 42 to AED 70 in the UAE. The 8,000-puff model starts at AED 42-45, most 12,000-40,000-puff models sit at AED 45-60, and the 50K and 60K models cost AED 55-70. Every price includes 5% VAT and the 100% excise tax on vape products.
Because larger models cost only a little more, they are much cheaper per rated puff. Tax and nicotine limits are part of the rules that decide whether vaping is legal in the UAE for a given device.
Crown Bar nicotine strengths and UAE rules
Al Fakher Crown Bars are listed in the UAE at 5 mg, 6 mg, 20 mg and 50 mg per ml. The UAE standard UAE.S 5030 caps nicotine at 20 mg/ml, so 5 mg, 6 mg and 20 mg versions meet the cap and 50 mg versions do not, even though some shops list them.
| Strength on the box | Percentage | Meets the UAE 20 mg/ml cap? | Crown Bar models listed |
|---|---|---|---|
| 5 mg | 0.5% | Yes | 8000, 12000, Hypermax, Ultra 25K, Cloud Force Max |
| 6 mg | 0.6% | Yes | Hypermax, Mega Max 40K, E-Hose X |
| 20 mg | 2% | Yes, at the limit | Hypermax, Cloud Box 50K |
| 50 mg | 5% | No | 12000, Hyper Max 30K, Ultra 40K |
UAE.S 5030 also limits a device’s e-liquid tank to 10 ml. Several large Crown Bar models list much bigger tanks, so a UAE-market version may differ from international specs, or a product may not meet the standard. Check for Arabic labelling, UAE-market packaging and the vape nicotine strength printed in mg/ml.
Which Al Fakher Crown Bar is best?
The best Al Fakher Crown Bar depends on how much you vape. For occasional use, the 8000 or Hypermax 15K is enough and costs AED 42-60. For regular use, the Ultra 25K or Mega Max 40K gives a low cost per puff. For a hookah-like session at home, the E-Hose X is the closest to a pipe.
| If you want | Consider | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Lowest up-front price | Crown Bar 8000 | AED 42-45, small and simple |
| Adjustable cooling | Hypermax 15K Ice Adjust | Lets you change the ice effect |
| Middle size, low strength | Ultra 25K | 25,000 puffs at 5 mg |
| Lowest cost per puff, pocket size | Mega Max 40K (6 mg) | 40,000 puffs, compliant strength |
| Hookah-style session | E-Hose X 60K | Hose, 60,000 puffs, 6 mg |
Whichever you choose, stay at 20 mg/ml or below. Very large devices can outlast their battery or coil if you vape only occasionally, so do not buy more capacity than you will use.
How to spot a fake Al Fakher Crown Bar
Counterfeit Crown Bars are common because the brand is so popular in the UAE. Most signs of a fake vape in the UAE show on the packaging, the price or the label. These checks take a minute.
- Check the UAE labelling. UAE-market stock should carry Arabic labelling.
- Look at the print quality. Blurred logos, spelling mistakes or uneven colours are red flags.
- Read the strength. A box with no strength, or a sticker over the printed strength, is a warning sign.
- Compare the price. A Crown Bar far below AED 42 is unlikely to be genuine, taxed stock.
- Check the batch code. Genuine packs carry a batch or verification code.
Using and storing a Crown Bar in UAE heat
Crown Bars hold a lithium battery and a large tank, so heat is the biggest risk in the UAE. Keep the device out of direct sun and never leave it in a parked car in summer, where leaks and battery damage are more likely. When the screen shows the e-liquid is empty, stop using it, because dry puffs burn the coil. Recycle finished devices as battery waste rather than household rubbish.

Frequently asked questions
How many puffs does an Al Fakher Crown Bar have?
Al Fakher Crown Bar models sold in the UAE are rated from 8,000 to 60,000 puffs. The Crown Bar 8000 is the smallest, and the E-Hose X is the largest at 60,000. Real puffs depend on how long and how often you draw, so most people get fewer than the rating.
How much is an Al Fakher Crown Bar in Dubai?
In an Al Fakher Crown Bar in Dubai costs AED 42-45 for the 8,000-puff model and up to AED 55-70 for the 60,000-puff E-Hose X. Excise tax and VAT are federal, so prices are similar across the emirates.
Is the Al Fakher Crown Bar rechargeable?
Yes. Current Crown Bar models recharge by USB-C, and the larger ones show the battery level on a screen. The charging cable is usually not in the box. Recharging the battery does not refill the e-liquid, so the device is finished when the tank is empty.
Which Crown Bar has the least nicotine?
The lowest strength we found in the UAE was 5 mg/ml (0.5%), on the Crown Bar 8000, 12000, Hypermax, Ultra 25K and Cloud Force Max. The E-Hose X and Mega Max 40K were listed at 6 mg/ml.
Is the Al Fakher Crown Bar legal in the UAE?
Vapes are legal for adults 18+ in the UAE if they meet UAE.S 5030 and the tax rules. Crown Bars at 20 mg/ml or below meet the nicotine cap. 50 mg versions do not, and large-tank models may not meet the 10 ml tank limit.
What flavours does the Crown Bar come in?
Crown Bars come mainly in Al Fakher’s shisha flavours, such as Two Apple, Grape with Mint, Lemon with Mint and Gum with Mint, plus fruit and ice blends such as Blueberry Ice and Berry Blue. Flavour line-ups differ by model.
Which Al Fakher Crown Bar to choose
The Al Fakher Crown Bar range covers every size from 8,000 to 60,000 puffs at AED 42-70 in the UAE. Pick by strength first, staying at 20 mg/ml or below, then by size: the 8000 or Hypermax for light use, the Ultra 25K or Mega Max 40K for regular use, and the E-Hose X for a hookah-style session.
