1 month in and I have some issues...

[korova8]

I have my Bloog MaxxFusion for a little over a month now and have accumulated some questions that maybe some of you might be able to answer.

1: Does anyone else experience the battery staying on after you stop dragging?

For instance: I will take a drag on my Bloog and you can kind of hear the "crackling" within the cartomzer (Im assuming this is the atomzier vaporizing the juice?) and when I stop my drag I will still hear the crackling sound and the battery indicator light will stay on as well as if I am dragging on it. Does anyone else have this issue?

At first it didn't bother me until about 2 minutes ago my Bloog was sitting in my lap and I heard the crackling sound as if I was dragging on it. (there it goes again) What could possibly set this off?

2: My vapor production has dropped about 20%. In all of the videos I can find about the MaxxFusion it seems they are able to produce a large amount of vapor. Mine on the other hand gets a little "whispy". I buy juice that is 80%pg/20%vg as recommended from the fine folks here on the forum.

Right out off the charger, the vapor production is pretty good but about 5 minutes into it, it slowly starts to deteriorate.

Has anyone experienced this as well?

Besides this two complaints my Bloog has been more than I could ever ask for but I am curious as to why these issues are occurring.

Your thoughts?

Sorry to hear you are having difficulty.

1. I have not experienced that issue, but I do know that sound and wind can cause it. Do you have loud music playing? Are you vaping in a wind tunnel, perhaps? If neither is true, you may want to post in the stickied CS thread and request an exchange.

2. Not all juices are created equal. I have some juices that produce a ton of vapor always and some that don't do so well. Who are you getting your juice from? I usually go with a 70/30 mix to increase the vapor produciton.

I do not frequent wind tunnels. Although it has been windy around here lately.. I have only noticed this issue in doors. I will make my over to the CS thread and see what pops up there.

As far as the juice I will try a 70/30 mix next and see what happens.

Thanks, I appreciate the help.

 

[Gardner808]

No problem. Glad to be of help.

If you want to share your suppliers list I will let you know if I have used them and what my experience was with their juices regarding vapor production.

The other way to activate the battery is by lightly blowing into the carto, which will cause it to activate for 5-7 seconds, when it hits the cutoff. Is it possible you're accidentally doing that when vaping? Otherwise, it sounds like a faulty battery.

As my sworn enemy Gardner said, knowing what juice you're using might help us narrow it down. How many times have you filled that particular carto? Is it a dark juice, or light in color?

Korova, sorry but it does sound like a bad switch. MaxxFusion uses a switch that has the fastest reaction speed on the market, so should definitly not be staying on after you stop inhaling. Contact cs@bloogplanet.com and we'll fix ya up!

Really? I have the same issue as him, but I didn't think much of it... usually only stays on for a second or two.

Is it anything to worry about? I'm not really likeing the idea of sending them in, and waiting for new ones.

Maybe you could buy, then return and be credited(don't forget to get shipping credited too)?

I have occasionally had the battery stay on after a drag till it hit the cut off making the sizzling, sound but only once in a while. maybe 5 or 6 times since I got the Bloog. I only use the prefilled carts and have had no trouble with vapor production.

Hey, if it's not bothering you, then no, nothing to worry about. It'll shorten your charge duration a little, but that's all.

They dont activate on sound.. just to point that out.. Mine did it, sometimes, but only for like a second and not very often..

 

[korova8]

Wow, thanks for all of the input. The only thing that concerns me is the battery life being affected. Im not ALWAYS near a power outlet/computer so I don't have 24hr access to a charging battery. I will definitely be contacting CS and see what they can do for me.
Again thank you all for you input.

Or to me more precise, they don't activate from external sound. The switch is acoustic, which means it is activated by the sound of the airflow through the batt. But they have the most precise and narrow decibal and frequency range of any acoustic switch on the market, so should not activate from external noise.
