OK this is probably a stupid noob question but here it goes: I just got my Blu Cig in a few days ago and it has worked great I have not had a cig since (except one at a party when somebody offered me one, but I have never had a craving for one). But here is my question, I like the Blu flavors, but my problem is that the nicotine strength is fairly week (the highest is only 16 or 18 mg I believe). Is there anyway to use other cartridges with the Blu Cig battery? And is there any cartridge you can buy that you can put any nicjuice in?

Hey Tregs. The Blu cig has a 510 connection. I have used different 510 cartos and attys but I also just refill the Blu cig cartos it came with. I used Cherry liquid from Liquidxpress with the Blu cherry cartos.
How do you refill the cartridges? do you have to drill a hole in the side or something?
I can't speak for Blu cigs, but as long as the end caps aren't glued, you can pop a bent paperclip in the hole and pry it out and drip new liquid in the carto. If the cap is glued in you'll have to poke a syringe through the hole (either end) and squirt some liquid in there. In either case, rotate the carto as you fill to allow the liquid to distribute evenly around the carto.
The end is not glued so follow Mindfield's advice. There are many different methods available here or on youtube. Just search for refilling 510 cartomizers if you have problems.

Yeah, they are very weak. I think they use 100%VG which in my experience provides more vapor but less TH at a mini e-cig level.
I started with a blucig and you can definately refill them. just pop off the end cap with a paperclip and drip the juice down the inside wall. Make sure you dont put too much in. It will ruin the battery.
Volcano is the same model battery as the Blu and they now sell blanks.
VOLCANO Pre-Filled Cartomizers
As opposed to 510 Cartos, these should fit perfectly in the Blu case. I do not know this for sure as I haven't gotten my hands on them yet. I do know 510 standard are a tight fit in the Blu pack.
EDIT: BTW, I refill my Blu cartos all the time also.

Volcano just started selling the cartomizers and they are the same size as the blucigs. I like that they come in different colors depending on the flavor. Volcano makes some pretty good juice too, but to me its kind of expensive.
the blu is very weak with refill volume and batt life....but if ya like it then vape on
Yeh I started with a blu and you have to recharge the battery every 20-30 minutes! I still think its a great way to start, but you eventually out grow it.
Volcano Magma is NOT the same model battery as a Blu. Blu is L88B and Volcano Magma is 510. Blu is the opposite electrical polarity and its charger will fry a 510 battery. Having the same threads does not mean anything other than they have the same threads. Nothing else is the same. I don't even know if Blu cartos are 510 cartos. I thought they were Joye 306 cartos (yet another model with the same threads as 510).
There is a Blu forum where you can discuss Blu after you have 5 posts or replies in New members and wait an hour

This is true and should the advice about the opposite polarity really should be understood.
BUT, the Blu is the same as the Volcano by Volcano. The Magna in a different model by Volcano.
Volcano batteries will carge in a Blu pack just fine, and I've heard same can be said for the other way (Blu bat in Volcano Pack).
Sorry, I didn't really read this until I already made my last post.
Basicly it is just a 306 cartomizer, but with some issues. the 306 carto male treadded piece is a little long on the l88b battery.
I've used the booge 306 cartos, but 7 out of the 15 didn't screw on all the way. this affected the conection of the center electical posts. This might be able to be fixed with a little fileing/grinding/sandpaper. I'd personally not feel right suggesting this to others.
