    Has Anyone Seen The Blu E-Cig TV Commercial

    The commercial seems fairly innocuous to me. Blu's business model is to appeal to smokers who have never tried vaping and their product as a replacement for cigarettes, thus the term smoking, which is what the potential customer knows. They would fail miserably with their current products if...

    ego vs kgo ?

    The Ego-upgrade will run in unregulated mode if you set it to do so, at about the same voltage as the Kgo. So, maybe the distinction is not so much these days.

    Blu cig review - the first kit I purchased

    Doubt you ever owned one or know statistics because if you did, you would recognize that Blu sells more ecigs than Volt, Halo, and Bloog put together. They are after the mass market and as such will always out sell those we claim to be better.

    Blu cig review - the first kit I purchased

    Good grief....more "don't buy Blu" posts. There is nothing wrong with Blu for what it is, a small (90-100mah) battery and JC filled cartos. And the charging pack is one of the best for convenience, where you can carry 2 batteries and about 5 cartos. If you want to fill your own cartos that are...

    Can we please have an honest discussion

    Well, why is this important to you? If you like it use it no matter what anyone else thinks. But, I agree that their smoke juice is very high quality and I have several bottles in my stash. Of the ones I have tried, Domestic, Wisconsin Frost, Summer Peach, Tundra, and Original Smoke Juice, all...

    18650 eGo Mod

    The warranty issue may be a problem, or not, but the Joyetech control unit should give you over discharge and over charge protection. Even though I bought a charger, I find myself just using the ego charger. I use the Joyetech battery with the vapesafe control unit. But, I also use the AW IC...

    Blu disposable liquid flavor

    Dripping directly onto an atomizer may give a different taste to the eliquid compared to a cartomizer, as in the blu disposable. I have most of JC tobacco juices, and I have tried the Blu disposable and am still not sure which one it is. It has to be within the Red Oak line since it is vg. Maybe...

    What is the best VG only liquid?

    Yes, I have used the Totally Wicked Platinum Ice. I can say it seems to me to be the purest I have seen. Great throat hit too, even in 100% VG. It is expensive but very good. It is as clear as water. They have a sale going on until June 27, the start of the Olympics.

    18650 not always an 18650

    The LC is probably a protected battery and the ICR unprotected. Usually, protected 18650 are 68mm and the unprotected 65mm.

    18650 eGo Mod

    Here is what I found from Lighthound regarding protected batteries: "The primary difference between the Protected and Unprotected batteries is that the protected batteries have a small circuit board, typically on the bottom of the battery, that stops the charging or discharge of the battery in...

    18650 eGo Mod

    Yes, I understood what you were talking about...a thermal failure. My question is, how does a "protected battery" protect from a thermal failure? Certainly not by a circuit board imbedded in the package. So, how? Does it have some sort of venting system internally, which would keep from...

    18650 eGo Mod

    You're right, of course. But, don't the protected batteries also have a circuit protector board in them? How can this protect from a thermal failure? In other words, isn't a protected battery just protected against short circuits? Or, is the protected battery protected against shorts actually...

    E-juice lab-reports?

    It would be good to see it for sure. But, there are only 3 Eliquid vendors that I know of that produce any lab reports on their flavored eliquid. Totally Wicked, Intellicig, and Johnson Creek. If anyone knows of any more I would like to know.

    18650 eGo Mod

    You are right JimmyJet. It seems to me that the unprotected 18650s are 65 mm long and the protected ones are 68 mm long. That is not presented as a fact, just what I have observed in my search for 18650 batteries. The blue Joytechs are 65 mm long. You must have bought the tube and switch...

    Thank you. Also got an email from Dustin saying the same thing. I agree that Joytech quality is excellent and I am interested in hearing their reply to this issue.

    18650 eGo Mod

    I am beginning to change my opinion of MSF. On this issue, no response to my email asking for confirmation that the Joytech 18650 battery is unprotected, no response in this forum thread to clarify their knowledge on the question rasied, and after receiving an email to review my purchase, I gave...

    18650 eGo Mod

    Yesterday I sent an email to MFS asking them about this issue. No response so far. The MOD they are selling comes with one of these Joytech 18650 battery. I ordered a second one at the same time, but there was no indication on their description that it was unprotected. The vape-safe is on its...

    18650 eGo Mod

    Since I have two of the Joytech 18650 batteries, I have ordered the Vape-Safe to use with them when I do not have the AW battery in.
