El-Badia C5 V2 shisha: metallic elegance at 41 cm
The El-Badia C5 V2 shisha pairs refined looks with solid performance in a 41 cm format. Its polished metallic tones catch the light and give it a style that's both modern and timeless. A shisha designed for those who love beautiful objects, without sacrificing session comfort.
Six metallic finishes to choose from
The C5 V2 comes in six colours, each with its own personality. Black Phantom, a deep, understated matte black. Shiny Gold, a dazzling gold. Brown Copper, a warm brown copper with vintage charm. Silver Chrome, a brilliant chrome silver. Shiny Carbon, a texture inspired by carbon fibre. And Rose Gold, a delicate pinkish gold.
Easy assembly and a stable base
The stem attaches to the thick glass base with a click attachment system: assembly is quick and secure. The thick glass gives welcome stability on the table, whether at home or in a hookah lounge.
A draw to your taste with the reversible diffuser
The reversible diffuser offers two draw options. With the 8 holes submerged, the draw is smooth and light. With the holes blocked, it becomes heavier and more intense. You can adjust the feel and the density of the clouds to suit your molasses and your mood.
An updated design
Compared with the first version, the lines of the C5 V2 have been refined for a cleaner look. The hose port and the purge valve have been discreetly integrated, adding to the overall elegance. The Soft Touch silicone hose and the 29 cm metal hose handle complete the set, along with an included ceramic phunnel bowl, compatible with heat management systems such as the Kaloud Lotus.
Who is this shisha for?
Ideal for discerning shisha lovers who want an elegant shisha at a sensible price, the C5 V2 also suits shisha bars looking to offer a well-finished, easy-to-maintain model. Its 41 cm format stays practical for everyday use. For an even bolder presence, the El-Badia C7 V2 shisha takes the same design up to 53 cm.

El-Badia expert tip
To keep the metallic finishes shining, wipe the stem with a soft, dry cloth after each session and avoid abrasive products. Start with the diffuser in the 8-holes-submerged position: it's the most versatile setting for discovering how the C5 V2 draws.

Regular maintenance is essential to ensure that your shisha lasts as long as possible and always provides a pleasant experience. Here are a few tips to keep your shisha in top condition:
- Cleaning after each use
Rinse the vase in hot water immediately after use. Use a special shisha brush to remove any residue. Also clean the body of the shisha with a special brush designed specifically to reach hard-to-reach areas. Find our different shisha cleaning products and shisha brushes here.
- Deep cleaning
For a more thorough clean, we recommend using EL-BADIA SHISHA CLEANER Powder. This powerful solution offers several benefits: it effectively removes stubborn stains, unwanted odors and lime deposits. It disinfects your hookah for a more hygienic experience and makes your hookah shine, restoring its original shine.
To use Shisha Cleaner, dilute two teaspoons of powder in 1 litre of hot water. Immerse your shisha parts in this solution for 5 to 10 minutes, then rinse thoroughly with clean water. This method ensures thorough cleaning and optimum disinfection of your shisha.
- Maintenance of the various parts
Firebox: Empty it after each use and clean it with a sponge and liquid soap.
Pipe: Make sure it is washable, then rinse it with water and shake it to remove any residue.
Seals: Simply rinse with water, or soak briefly in soapy water if necessary.
By following these regular maintenance tips, you'll considerably extend the life of your shisha while guaranteeing quality sessions every time you use it.
