Blu blues when vaping

[GraceOnFire]

I have a question for those that have tried Blu, as well as users of various other devices and juices.

I feel more of a coating over my tongue and throat than an actual "throat burn". Is this typical of Blu? or typical of e-cigs? Am I just feeling the years of analog smoking now that I've stopped?

I'm sure that when smoking analogs, my mouth and throat were coated with all of the various chems involved, but, this feels different?

Any thoughts?

I had a short period of time where the difference between the two was irritating, even some dry sore throat. I did experience what you explained for a few days when started ecigs on a regular basis. Then it went away. I cannot even remember my blu cigs and what they felt like. The setup I have today is like night and day compared to then. My overall health improved upon quitting analogs.

Never got that from Blu but did from cheap disposables and less than quality juices. May be a transition period though.

It's the VG liquid that Blu uses.
Which is weird because Johnson Creek is my favorite juice vendor.
The delivery system might also be a factor.
The Vea cartos are larger and more durably put together.
I've only used the Premium 100 ones.
I'm done with ordering refills from Blu.
Jet Cigs makes great prefilled 510 cartos.
Their flavors are also delicious.
Jet uses a 60/20/20 VG/PG/DW blend.
And a much better delivery system.
I'm not an expert; but I still use the Blu Premium 100, every day at work. I do like the flavor of Cherry Crush. But Ranier by JC is very close. A lot of people knock Blu. But it's where most of us started out.

I appreciate the responses. I will persevere. Thanks for the insight. The Jet 510 cartos fit the Blu batteries?

Blu is threaded with 510 so yes it should work.

You may of heard this before but it's worth repeating, drink PLENTY of water. Especially when you're first starting out vaping. I too started with a Blu kit and had similar symptoms to what you're describing for my first couple days. Keep hydrated and it should pass. Good luck!

Use JETREF50 in the coupon box.
It will get you half off everything at Jet Cigs.
Their prefilled cartos actually work better than the Blu ones.
Much smoother draw & a lot more flavor.
Jet high nicotine is also 22 mg.
I drink a lot of powerade instead of water.
But hydrating is a great idea.

I'm no expert either, but I really believe that you have to give yourself some time with vaping / ecigs, mainly to allow your taste buds to 'recover'. If I recall it took just several days to a week for me to start really noticing the difference in my ability to actually TASTE. The taste of different juices was one of the initial stumbling blocks for me......only Blu's Vivid Vanilla really worked for me, where other juices were just so-so, and didn't really taste all that great. After a couple of weeks, it was 'game ON'. I went on a bit of a juice sample buying spree. I'm sure many have had a similar experience.
(BTW, once you allow this to happen, LOOK OUT, and get your wallet / credit card ready!! lol.....)

I have enough juice now, to get me through until 2014.
Suppliers keep sending me samples to review.
Nicopure just sent me about $200 worth of juice.
NicQuid probably even more than that.
Just bought a ton of clearos from FastTech.
The FDA can do whatever they want.
I'm all set.

I hated the mouth feel and taste of Blu disposables, and really enjoyed moving on to filling carts with other liquids. Know exactly what you mean by that coating.

And how are people getting samples, if you don't mind me asking?

Unfortunately through the suppliers thread on Vapers Forum. There's no freebies on ECF. Just great people & advice.
