500ml E-Liquids: The Professional Choice for Volume, Variety and Value
Most vapers never need to think about a 500ml bottle. But for those who go through liquid at scale, whether that means a dedicated daily vaper running a powerful sub-ohm setup, a vape lounge stocking liquid for customers, or a retailer wanting a private-label style range to fill their shelves, the 500ml shortfill is a category that changes the economics of vaping entirely. At No1 Vape Wholesale, our collection of E-Liquids includes a 500ml range that brings together the bold personality of Frankenstein and the comprehensive Kingston E-Liquids range, covering seven distinct flavour categories across menthol, soda, sweets, chill, zingberry, gazillions, and more.
This is the collection for buyers who have moved past experimenting and want to commit to quality at scale. The Kingston brand in particular stands out for the depth of its 500ml offering, giving customers a rare opportunity to find their preferred flavour style and purchase it in a format that genuinely serves long-term, high-volume use. Whether you are filling shelves, supplying a lounge, or simply tired of running out too soon, this is the collection that answers the question properly.
The Largest Shortfill Format in the UK Vaping Market
A 500ml shortfill is the largest standard e-liquid bottle format available to UK vapers and retailers. Like every shortfill, it is sold without nicotine to remain compliant with UK TPD regulations, which cap nicotine-containing e-liquid at a maximum of 10ml per bottle. You purchase your nicotine shots separately and add them after opening, giving you full control over the final strength of the mixed liquid. At 500ml, the economics are unlike anything else in the vaping market. The cost per millilitre drops to its absolute lowest, the volume provides weeks to months of supply depending on usage, and the format is particularly well-suited to businesses, high-volume users, and anyone who has found their ideal liquid and simply wants more of it without compromise or interruption.
Frankenstein Meets Kingston: Bold Character Across Seven Profiles
This 500ml collection brings together two distinct brand voices. Frankenstein arrives with the kind of bold, unapologetic flavour character that its name promises, while Kingston E-Liquids delivers a comprehensive range of carefully developed shortfill profiles across six named series: Zingberry, Chill, Gazllions, Soda, Menthol, and Sweets. Kingston is a well-regarded name in the UK e-liquid market and its 500ml range represents one of the most thorough flavour programmes available in this format. Together with the Frankenstein offering, these products give both individual buyers and wholesale customers a genuinely complete 500ml selection to choose from. Browse our wider E-Liquids collection to pair any of these with compatible nicotine shots.
Stop Reordering Every Week
A sub-ohm vaper running a high-wattage device can easily consume 20ml or more of e-liquid per day. At that rate, even a 200ml bottle runs out in under two weeks. A 500ml shortfill provides the same vaper with three to six weeks of continuous supply from a single purchase, eliminating the constant cycle of reordering and the risk of running out at an inconvenient moment.
Bulk Supply for Customer-Facing Environments
Vape lounges, hookah bars, and hospitality venues that offer vaping as part of their service need a liquid supply that keeps pace with customer demand without constant restocking. The 500ml format is purpose-built for this use case, providing a manageable volume that reduces the frequency of orders while keeping quality consistent for every customer who uses the venue's equipment.
Volume Purchasing at the Lowest Cost Per ML
For retail businesses that sell refill liquid from bulk stock or operate a house-blend style model, the 500ml format delivers the lowest achievable cost per millilitre in the UK e-liquid market. Buying in this format reduces per-unit cost significantly compared to stacking smaller bottles, and the Kingston range in particular offers enough flavour variety to cover multiple customer preferences from a single brand purchase.
The Absolute Lowest Cost Per Millilitre
No other standard e-liquid format delivers a lower cost per millilitre than the 500ml shortfill. When you calculate the annual spend of a heavy daily vaper or the monthly liquid cost of a retail business, the difference between buying at 500ml versus smaller formats is a significant and real financial saving that compounds every time you order. For wholesale buyers, this is the format that genuinely moves the margin needle.
Weeks of Uninterrupted Supply
At 500ml per bottle, even the most dedicated daily vaper can expect to go considerably longer between purchases than they would with any smaller format. For businesses, this means fewer stock-related disruptions, fewer emergency reorders, and a more predictable supply chain for a product that customers expect to be available consistently. The peace of mind that comes with genuine supply security is one of the most underrated advantages of this format.
Seven Distinct Flavour Series from Kingston Alone
The Kingston 500ml range is exceptional in the breadth of flavour categories it covers at this volume. Most brands that produce large-format shortfills focus on two or three flavour styles at most. Kingston offers six dedicated series in 500ml alongside the standalone Frankenstein product, meaning buyers can find their specific preference within this single collection rather than sourcing from multiple suppliers to cover different tastes.
High VG Formula for Dense, Consistent Output
Every 500ml shortfill in this collection uses a high VG formulation suited to sub-ohm devices and direct-to-lung setups. At this volume, consistency across the entire bottle is particularly important, and the high-quality formulations in both the Frankenstein and Kingston ranges maintain flavour accuracy and cloud production from the first tank fill through to the final pour from the bottle, which is not something every e-liquid brand can guarantee at this scale.
Fully TPD Compliant and Legally Sold
The 500ml shortfill format is entirely legal in the United Kingdom because it is sold without nicotine. Every product in this collection is 100% authentic, sourced from verified suppliers, and compliant with all UK TRPR regulations. Retailers can stock and sell these products with complete confidence, and individual buyers can purchase them knowing they are getting genuine, legally compliant liquid from a trustworthy source.
Wholesale Benefits That Scale With Order Size
With a 5% discount across all products at No1 Vape Wholesale, same-day dispatch on qualifying orders, and free delivery on purchases over £200, the wholesale economics of buying 500ml shortfills are genuinely compelling. The high per-unit value of each 500ml bottle means most single-product orders comfortably qualify for free delivery, and the 5% discount applies regardless of order size, making every purchase more cost-efficient than buying direct from smaller-format alternatives.
Plan Your Shots in Advance
At 500ml, you will need multiple nicotine shots to reach your target strength. Work out how many 18mg or 20mg shots you need before opening the bottle so the process is clean and straightforward from start to finish
Add All Shots at Once
Pour all of your chosen nicotine shots into the 500ml bottle in a single session. Adding shots across multiple sittings without shaking in between can result in uneven nicotine distribution throughout the bottle
Shake Long and Thoroughly
A 500ml bottle requires a longer shake than smaller formats. Shake firmly for at least two to three minutes to ensure complete and even distribution of the nicotine throughout the full liquid volume
Steep and Store Correctly
Allow the bottle to rest for several hours after mixing, particularly for complex flavour profiles. Store upright with the cap sealed tightly between fills to maintain flavour quality across weeks of use
The Frankenstein 500ml E-Liquid enters this collection with a brand personality that is impossible to overlook. Built around bold, unconventional flavour combinations that earned the brand its name, Frankenstein is the product in this range for vapers who want something genuinely different from the predictable lineup of fruit and menthol blends that dominate most large-format shortfill collections. The Frankenstein approach to flavour is experimental and confident, mixing elements that individually work well together into profiles that feel original rather than derivative. At 500ml, this means committing to that flavour experience at scale, which the brand's loyal customer base does willingly because the consistency across the full bottle justifies that trust. For retailers, Frankenstein is a product that drives curiosity at the point of sale and generates the kind of enthusiastic word-of-mouth that more conventionally branded products rarely produce.
- Bottle Size: 500ml shortfill
- Flavour Style: Bold, unconventional, character-driven blends
- Nicotine: Nicotine-free, add shots to preferred strength
- VG/PG Ratio: High VG for sub-ohm use
- Compliance: Fully TPD compliant
The Kingston Zingberry Range 500ml Shortfill takes the berry category and gives it an edge that standard berry blends rarely manage. The Zingberry name captures the character of these profiles accurately: berry flavours with a sharper, more vibrant character than typical smooth berry blends, delivering a lively and invigorating taste experience that holds up well across a high-volume bottle. The zingy berry profile suits vapers who find standard berry shortfills too flat or who want a fruit liquid with genuine presence on the exhale. Kingston has developed this range with the kind of attention to flavour detail that justifies the 500ml commitment, and the consistency of the Zingberry taste from first fill to last is a quality standard the brand maintains reliably across its full shortfill programme. For retailers, this is a strong choice for any customer who wants a berry profile with personality rather than polish alone.
- Bottle Size: 500ml shortfill
- Flavour Style: Vibrant, sharp mixed berry blends
- Nicotine: Nicotine-free shortfill
- VG/PG Ratio: High VG formulation
- Compliance: Fully TPD compliant
The Kingston Chill 500ml Shortfill is built for the large and consistently loyal segment of the vaping market that prioritises a cooling, refreshing draw above all other flavour qualities. The Chill range delivers menthol and cooling profiles with a clean, well-balanced execution that keeps the cooling sensation present without overwhelming the base flavour underneath. This is a distinction that matters enormously in the cooling category: many budget menthol liquids bury the fruit or base note completely under an aggressive cooling agent, while Kingston Chill maintains the balance that makes repeated vaping throughout the day comfortable and rewarding. At 500ml, it is the ideal format for cooling preference vapers who vape consistently and want the assurance of an adequate supply without interruption. Moreover, cooling profiles are one of the most reliably popular categories in UK vaping year-round, making this a dependable stocking choice for any retailer.
- Bottle Size: 500ml shortfill
- Flavour Style: Balanced cooling and chill profiles
- Nicotine: Nicotine-free shortfill
- VG/PG Ratio: High VG blend
- Compliance: Fully TPD compliant
The Kingston Gazllions 500ml Shortfill brings a playful, candy-adjacent energy to the 500ml category that sets it apart from the more serious-sounding products in this collection. The Gazllions name signals a flavour approach built around fun, sweet, and slightly indulgent profiles that appeal to vapers who want their e-liquid to feel like a treat rather than a utility. The range covers a selection of sweet and mixed confectionery-inspired profiles with the kind of flavour depth that keeps them interesting over extended use. At 500ml, this is a serious quantity of a sweet liquid, which means Gazllions suits vapers who have tested these flavours in a smaller format and decided they want to commit at scale. For retailers, the distinctive branding and accessible sweet profiles make Gazillions one of the more approachable Kingston products to recommend to customers who are browsing without a fixed idea of what they want.
- Bottle Size: 500ml shortfill
- Flavour Style: Playful, sweet and candy-inspired profiles
- Nicotine: Nicotine-free, mix to your strength
- VG/PG Ratio: High VG formulation
- Compliance: Fully TPD compliant
The Kingston Soda 500ml Shortfill is one of the most distinctive products in this collection, addressing a flavour niche that is genuinely underserved in the large-format shortfill market. Soda-inspired e-liquids, think cola, lemonade, cream soda, and fizzy drinks, have a dedicated following among vapers who want their liquid to evoke the refreshing character of carbonated beverages rather than the typical fruit or menthol profiles that dominate the category. Kingston has developed the Soda range with an understanding of what makes these profiles work in vapour form, capturing the sweet, slightly tangy, refreshing character of familiar soda flavours without relying on artificial-tasting approximations. At 500ml, the Soda range is a genuinely exciting choice for any retailer looking to offer something genuinely different to customers who have grown tired of the same berry and menthol options across every brand they encounter.
- Bottle Size: 500ml shortfill
- Flavour Style: Fizzy drink and soda-inspired profiles
- Nicotine: Nicotine-free shortfill
- VG/PG Ratio: High VG blend
- Compliance: Fully TPD compliant
The Kingston Menthol 500ml Shortfill is the most straightforward product in the Kingston 500ml lineup and, for a specific customer group, the most essential. Pure menthol e-liquid has one of the most loyal and consistent customer bases in UK vaping. Former menthol cigarette smokers represent a significant portion of the overall vaping population, and many of them have a single, unwavering preference for a clean, classic menthol liquid that does not add unnecessary fruit layers or sweetness over the cooling base. Kingston Menthol delivers precisely that: a clean, accurate menthol profile in a 500ml bottle that gives menthol-preference vapers the volume they need to buy less frequently and enjoy more consistently. For retailers, a menthol-specific product at 500ml fills a gap that most large-format shortfill ranges leave open, and it attracts the kind of loyal, repeat-purchase customer that every vape shop values highly.
- Bottle Size: 500ml shortfill
- Flavour Style: Clean, classic pure menthol
- Nicotine: Nicotine-free shortfill
- VG/PG Ratio: High VG formulation
- Compliance: Fully TPD compliant
The Kingston Sweets 500ml Shortfill rounds out the Kingston range with a dedicated sweets category that covers the kind of sugar-forward, confectionery-inspired profiles that appeal to vapers with a strong preference for sweet flavours over fruit, menthol, or tobacco alternatives. The Kingston Sweets range explores profiles rooted in familiar sweet shop flavours: think sherbet, fizzy sweets, mixed candy, and other confectionery-adjacent tastes that translate well into a high-VG vapour format. The quality of formulation that Kingston applies across its full 500ml programme is equally present in the Sweets range, ensuring that the sweetness is full and satisfying without becoming cloying across extended daily use. As a result, the Sweets range is one of the strongest choices for vapers who use their device all day and need a sweet profile that does not become tiresome after the first few tanks. For retailers, it completes the Kingston 500ml range into a genuinely comprehensive flavour offering.
- Bottle Size: 500ml shortfill
- Flavour Style: Sweet shop, sherbet, and confectionery profiles
- Nicotine: Nicotine-free, add shots to taste
- VG/PG Ratio: High VG blend
- Compliance: Fully TPD compliant
❄️ Menthol and Chill
The Kingston Menthol and Kingston Chill ranges together dominate the cooling segment of this collection. Menthol is one of the most consistently popular flavour categories in UK vaping and performs especially strongly at large bottle sizes because loyalty in this category is unusually high. Once a menthol vaper finds a profile they trust, they rarely switch, which makes the 500ml commitment a natural and low-risk decision for them.
🍓 Berry and Fruit
Kingston Zingberry represents the fruit category in this collection with a distinctive, sharper character that stands out from smoother berry competitors. Fruit blends account for the largest share of e-liquid sales across the UK market at every bottle size, and the Zingberry approach of delivering fruit with added vibrancy gives it an advantage over more conventional berry profiles for experienced vapers who have worked through standard options already.
🥤 Soda and Beverage
Kingston Soda fills a genuinely underserved niche in the 500ml market. Beverage-inspired profiles are popular across smaller bottle sizes but rarely appear at this volume, which means Soda attracts customers who have been waiting for exactly this kind of product in a format that makes sense for their usage habits. It also draws in new customers from outside the typical shortfill buyer profile, allowing retailers to expand their customer base.
🍬 Sweets and Candy
Kingston Sweets and Kingston Gazllions together cover the confectionery category from two angles: the traditional sweet shop experience and a more playful candy-forward approach. Sweet profiles attract the most enthusiastic vapers in the market, and buyers in this category who commit to 500ml tend to become strong repeat customers because their flavour loyalty is well established before they make the purchase decision.
🧪 Bold and Character-Led
Frankenstein stands alone in this collection as the character-led option for vapers who want something genuinely unconventional. This flavour category appeals to a smaller but very engaged segment of the market, the type of vaper who seeks out unusual profiles and enjoys discussing what they are tasting. For retailers, stocking Frankenstein at 500ml signals confidence in the product and often attracts exactly the kind of knowledgeable customer who influences others in their social circle.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is a 500ml shortfill e-liquid?
A 500ml shortfill is a nicotine-free e-liquid sold in the largest standard shortfill bottle available in the UK market. It is sold without nicotine to comply with TPD regulations and is designed to accept multiple nicotine shots after purchase to reach your preferred strength.
How many nicotine shots do I need for a 500ml shortfill?
To reach approximately 3mg strength, you will need around ten 10ml shots at 18mg concentration, bringing the total mixed volume to around 600ml. The exact number depends on your target strength and the specific concentration of the shots you are using, so always check the label guidance first.
How long does a 500ml shortfill last?
For a heavy daily vaper using a high-output sub-ohm device, a 500ml shortfill typically lasts between four and eight weeks. Moderate vapers could extend that considerably further, while very heavy users in a professional or lounge setting may go through it faster depending on how many people the supply supports.
Is a 500ml e-liquid legal in the UK?
Yes. Because 500ml shortfills contain no nicotine, they are not subject to the 10ml bottle size restriction under UK TPD regulations. Every product in this collection is fully compliant with UK TRPR requirements and completely legal to purchase, stock, and sell in the United Kingdom.
What device do I need for a 500ml shortfill?
All 500ml shortfills in this collection use a high VG formulation suited to sub-ohm tanks and direct-to-lung setups. They are not appropriate for mouth-to-lung pod devices, which perform better with higher-PG nicotine salt e-liquids in a 10ml format.
What makes the Kingston 500ml range stand out?
Kingston offers six distinct flavour series at 500ml, which is exceptional breadth for this format. Most brands produce only one or two large-format shortfill flavours, making the Kingston range one of the most comprehensive 500ml programmes available in the UK market from a single trusted brand.
Can I buy 500ml shortfills in bulk for my vape shop or lounge?
Yes. No1 Vape Wholesale supplies 500ml e-liquids for retail businesses, vape lounges, and high-volume buyers with a 5% discount across all products, same-day dispatch, and free delivery on qualifying orders over £200. Contact us if you have specific volume requirements or need guidance on which products to prioritise for your customer base.
How should I store a 500ml shortfill bottle?
Store the bottle upright in a cool, dry location away from direct sunlight and heat at all times. Keep the cap tightly sealed between uses. After mixing with nicotine shots, the combined liquid remains in good condition for the full period you would normally take to use it, provided storage conditions are maintained consistently.
Does shaking a 500ml bottle take longer than a smaller shortfill?
Yes. The larger liquid volume requires a longer and more vigorous shake to ensure even distribution of the nicotine throughout the bottle. Aim for at least two to three minutes of firm shaking after adding all your shots, and allow the bottle to rest for a few hours before using it for the first time.
What is the refund policy on 500ml e-liquids at No1 Vape Wholesale?
No1 Vape Wholesale operates a fast refund policy across all orders. If you receive a faulty or incorrect product, contact our team promptly, and we will resolve the issue as a priority. We apply additional urgency to high-value orders like 500ml products because we understand the impact a problem at this level has on your business or supply.
