I have been less than pleased with blucigs.com. I received the blu premium 100 starter kit a couple weeks ago. When I first got the kit (only for the first day and a half) I would have given the kit a 7 or 8 out of 10. The kit started off giving very good vapor, the batteries were lasting the time they said they would, and the cartomizers seemed to be lasting the claimed amount of puffs (keep in mind I was a 2-pack-a-day smoker).
After the day and a half had passed, one of the batteries started to give me trouble (the premium 100 batteries are supposed to last approximately 100 puffs before needing a recharge). The battery started lasting less than half of the time is was supposed to and then would just die right after charging. The other battery works fine.
I got through the pack of supplied cartomizers that came with the started package and they were fair/good. When I went through the 5 packs of cartomizers I purchased on a seperate order, they were all over the place with how long they lasted. One cartomizer only gave vapor for just about 100 puffs/1 battery charge when they are supposed to last 350 puff (approx.). In short -- there were 4 out of a total of 25 cartomizers that lasted anywhere near where they should've.
I know the battery is covered under warranty and they are taking care of that, but it is frustrating when things do not work when you expect them to. I still do not have any answer/solution about the cartomizers. They sent me an email about what to do with the cartomizers (like storing them atty side down, tapping the L.E.D. side on my hand when the cartomizer is connected, and spinning them between my palms). Now I am going back and forth with them for a solution and nothing after 8 business days. If there is nothing in the cartos I could practically eat them and have nothing happen.
We all make mistakes -- like buying Blu, but we learn. I would now rate BLU as a 3.
*I have bought a few different kits and will review them after a few weeks. Since I haven't received the other kits or finished my mod yet, I was lucky enough to find that a few of my friends had some other brands. Now I know my review of blu is fair because I had 2 different brands to compare blu to.
