Just kidding, they didn't. But look at what I saw...

If Blu released ego style batteries, VV's, mods, tanks, or something advanced... Would you try it?

Just out of curiosity.

Well... no. But not because I have anything against blu. I'm just well satisfied with what I have.

I know very little about blu, actually. Their marketing must be pretty effective though because I have seen many, many posts mentioning them as a lot of people's starting point with vaping.

I got started on them, but at the same time, almost went back on analogs because of them! I have nothing against them, but they need to improve on what they already have.

They started me on vaping. Well, permanent vaping, after I went through disposables. They got bought out by a huge company (Lorelland? I think its called) who makes Newports and other analogs, so they have cash. I think the reason they are so big is because they were the first to start pulling in the close-minded people and they try the hardest to represent what a real smoker wants to feel. (Edit: in terms of the pack, cig size, etc.)

But in the end I've never had more problems. I still use it in public (With Jet cartos only!) because I LOVE the PCC... But even right now I'm having a huge problem, the PCC literally ATE one of my batteries. So I'd not want to buy something advanced but I'd need to try it. I want them to make more advanced things to introduce the vapers who only know of Blu and small e cigs to the real wide world of vaping.

Blu is getting e-cigs out there. They are spending good money doing it.
If they come out with a VV battery, does that mean they'll enlighten their customers on ohms and power draw?
does it mean they will carry different resistance cartos? I doubt it. VV is nice but with a small carto, it'll blow through juice and burn a carto pretty easily. VV is a learning curve and I'm guessing Blu will stay far away from learning curves.

Bigger batteries? Maybe I can see that.

Keep in mind they did just put out the premium 100 bat...

I would try it .. but I bet they are focusing thier efforts on smaller, lighter and longer lasting. I can't see them doing vv as we know it .. but maybe adding a "max battery/std/max flavor" type feature.

Overall, I think Blu's are the best disposables out there . .so I'd likely try something new from them if it wasn't too expensive.

You'd take Blu disposables over an Njoy king? Cuz I hate disposables but those Njoys are little delights

Blu would do better to come out with an eRoll competitor. And I don't mean the eMini, but something completely different with similar/better features. Like maybe the eRoll but with cartos and a better PCC.

But Blu's PCC is awesome, in my opinion. I get 6 Cartos worth of storage (Including one attached to a battery in the battery storage slot) 2 batteries, and it looks and feels the most like a REAL pack of squares..

I think they should keep their take on the PCC

Except the eRoll can be charged without having to disassemble the unit. If Blu could come out with something similar, and perhaps with a clearo or tank+atty in the 8.5 mm size, they would shoot ahead of the underground competition. Especially if the PCC could still carry a spare battery and 5 cartos.

Well we can only hope, and even if they do it will probably turn out like their other terrible products.

I think Blu needs to work on their current products, first. Those 100s batteries did not last too long, either. Dud cartos are common. And the hinge broke on my PCC almost right away, and I couldn't get a new one because they were back ordered most of the time I had them.

And they are all about marketing. So, vv wouldn't serve their purpose. BTW, I am most happy that they finally removed the "smoke anywhere" from the tv ad.
