Geek Bar Pulse Settings

1
Standard mode uses a single coil and offers 15,000 puffs. This mode is similar to other disposables. Since it alternates between two coils (the heating elements), your puffs will be lightly flavored and hit soft. With the standard mode, you receive a mild experience that lasts longer than other disposables.^{[4]

Research source}
- You get more hits with this mode than with other disposable vapes, which usually offer around 600 puffs.
- Activate this setting by pushing the bottom tab into the middle position.
2
Pulse Mode uses both coils for 7,500 stronger, more flavorful puffs. This configuration is the first of its kind. The Pulse Mode activates both coils for stronger, more flavorful hits. Since the puffs are stronger, you only get 7,500 instead of 15,000. Activate this setting by pushing the bottom tab into the upper position.^{[5]

- If there is a rocket ship on the screen of your device, that means it is in Pulse Mode.

Why does the Geek Bar Pulse stand out?

The Geek Bar Pulse introduced dual-coil configuration and a smart screen. The dual-coil configuration helps it last longer than other disposables, as it switches coils every time you take a puff in standard mode. It also solves the issue of juice and battery display. You can’t check your battery and e-liquid levels on older disposables, but the Geek Bar Pulse has a smart screen that displays both.^{[6]
X
Research source}
- The dual-coil configuration has been implemented into other disposable vapes, but the Geek Bar Pulse was the first to introduce this technology.
- The 650mAh battery, 16mL liquid capacity, and USB-C charging port make the Geek Bar Pulse last longer than other disposable vapes.

The screen shows the battery, mode, and e-liquid level when you puff. Check the battery by looking for the lightning bolt icon at the top of your screen. The five segments and the number next to them indicate your battery level. An empty open circle in the middle of your screen means your device is in standard mode. A rocket ship means your device is in Pulse Mode.^{[7]

Red blinking means your device is in safety mode. This is usually the result of dropping your Geek Bar Pulse on a hard surface. Blow firmly into the mouthpiece to reactivate the internal puff sensor and clear the airflow. If that doesn’t work, you may need to replace your device.^{[9]

If your device is charged and the screen isn’t working, check to see if the device still hits. If so, you can still use it. If not, it’s time for a replacement.

If your Geek Bar Pulse isn’t charging, check the port for dust or debris. If you plug the device in and the screen doesn’t respond, it isn’t charging. Grab a flashlight and check for any dust or debris. If you spot any, blow air into the port to clear out loose debris. For tougher spots, insert a shaved toothpick or another fine, non-metal tool into the port and use it to dislodge any foreign objects.^{[10]
