Hey guys, So before I knew anything about the vapor world I made a grave mistake like most noobs and thought the way to quit smoking is with the blu electronic cigs. I first purchased a starter pak and quickly purchased extra cartos a few days later. My entire blu cig investment is around $70 and regretted the entire experience. I hadn't vaped from the blu pak after getting my mod and kayfun clone then out of pure curiosity I checked to see if the blu cartos would work on my mod. I screwed in the carto and prayed that I could salvage some of my terrible blu investment. I vaped off the blu carto for a bit and am really happy to say they work just fine on my mod. It's not the best flavor but at least my blu experience is not a complete loss.

Look at the brightside my friend...those blu's got you started & you might not have otherwise. So it's worth it in the end! And like you said you got some of your money's worth out of the carts. Now hold on to that starter & pass it along to a friend that may be interested & on the fence about vaping :)

I started off with Blu too. But unlike you I did like the product when I first started vaping. I did not like the cartos....well it turned out I have a sensitivity to VG so I couldn't USE the cartos. But I ended up buying a few blank cartos & filling them with my own juice & once I did that I was pretty happy with the blu kit while it worked. I moved onto an ego type set up pretty quickly though so the Blu kit was my car/out & about kit. Unfortunately the charging case stopped working after just over a year so I had to move on.

glad you found a use for the cartos though. I still have a bunch of them & have absolutely no use for them after I purchased so many lol. Oh well, live & learn.

I don't know why, but for some reason I like the Blu Premium 100 kit. Probably because it is shaped like a regular cigarette, and therefore it seems natural to carry around and use. It seems to put out a reasonable amount of vapor with the Boge 510 cartos that I use. My egos definitely have better flavor, carry more juice, and last longer, but I don't feel as natural holding and using them--they seem more like cigars to me. I have had thoughts of just getting a bunch of cigalikes and carrying them in a pack, just like I'm used to doing with analogs.

Try not to sweat it too much. My first kit was just a couple of eGo batteries, a cheap clearomizer and a free bottle of juice for about $60 when I could have spent less than half that if I did more price comparison. What's important is that you've made the switch and know where to go to ask for advice. ;)

I've read this from a lot of people who've gotten the premium 100 kit. I think the battery on that one is more powerful than the other smaller one. I would have switched to those but unfortunately they didn't sell the 100 pcc separately & I didn't need everything that comes with a kit so I ended up replacing my Blu kit with an eroll when it stopped working. I like that one too but the Blu was more convenient.

Same here! Started with the Blu's. If your batteries still work you could pick up a pack of Ce3's. They look a little stupid but work pretty good and produce a decent and discrete vape! I think Altsmoke.com has 5 packs for about $10.

I loved the Blue flavor. If they sold it I'd buy it up. Just the system sucked, my wife bought one as well and hated it.

Just buy Johnson Creek Smoke Juice if you liked the Blu flavor because that's who makes the juice for the Blu ecigs. I love the Vanda... it tastes like the Vivid Vanilla.
