A little better than 6 years ago I started vaping, haven't had not even 1 drag on a stinky. I started with a Blu Cig kit but back then they were cartomizers. 5 days later I got an 650 Ego set up, thought that was a big mod. Anyway I'm pretty impressed with these my blu's, far different than the one that I started with. I received 10 today, 5 out of 5 so far have good batteries. I have 10 more coming, these are going to be "give-aways" to promote not smoking (not trying to promotr blu).
The vape from them is the closed taste of a stinky I've ever seen, should be just the ticket for a new vapor, I want that cigarette taste in the begining, nowadays that's the last thing that I want it to taste like.

I think some folks were able to dry burn and re-wick these things. I may try.

I've dry burned the coil with the alligator clips on a desktop Tab ohm reader. Easy enough to rewick, the base comes right off. None of this fixes the flooding and juice in the mouth though. I've tried stuffing enough cotton to where I deformed the coil. Result was dry hits and juice in the mouth, the perfect 2013 vape.

I only get flooding if it has been bouncing around upside down in my pocket or if I pull too hard. I think it takes some getting used to. A light steady pull also works best with the Juul and Infinix. On the Juul, a hard pull creates too many bubbles around the wick. On the Infinix, a hard pull causes flooding like the Myblu. If you like a harder pull, then the Drop might be a better choice for you. I'm not using much cotton when I rewick the Myblu. The only time that I've ever gotten a dry hit is when I accidentally ran out of juice and there was nothing left. I occasionally lose track of the level... I think I've probably done that on every device that I've used-haha!

Sounds like you are done with it. But if you are still giving it a chance, you might try a lighter pull. A light steady pull should be enough for more than what you'd get from a puff on a cig. Also, if it is already flooded then you need to take the pod out and blow into it to clear the chimney. Then pop off the drip tip and the part underneath to give them a cleaning. Otherwise, the trapped liquid will just keep causing problems. Hope that helps.

How do you all like the vape? Bit of fluid in my mouth on occasion. Diluted it about halfway with some 50/50 WTA @12mg. Still a bit potent. I only vape 8.5W.

Would have been awesome back when I started vaping. I tried the Icare when it first came out, this is better. Never tried a cig-like (808-4081), always wanted to tho.

How is the 50/50 juice working once you refilled? Wicking well, any extra leaking, etc? I’m about to order some juice (the old urge for finding a great RY4 for my ADV), and I was wondering if I should order my normal 50/50 or if I needed something thicker. I really prefer 50/50 though so I’m hoping you’re having good luck.

    This morning I just gave it a full 50/50 tank. Too early to report fully, but so far no juice in mouth and better clouds. I'll try to use the whole tank up and report back this evening.
    I am taking slow 2 second pulls and it's nice. Very cloudy, if you care.

    Ok here’s the original post with the coupon code.

    You can also order multiple kits through eliquid.com for $1 each with free shipping. I ordered 5 kits on 6/24 and received them today (6/27). Total was $4.45 using the discount code nobamboozles11

    I'm a bit late to the party here.
    Are any still available at that $1 offer somewhere?
    Does anyone have battery specs to offer...3.7v. @ ? mAH?
    I take it other than perhaps with rebuilding, there are no adjustments on the device.[/QUOTE)
    Hey CB. Seems to vape in the 8-10W area. Can't tell where the af is, covered the usb port and didn't change anything.
    Not a bad vape! About as long as a 100 cig and featherweight. Gonna be a great stealth vape.

    eJuices has 1971 MyBlu Starter Kits left and free shipping. :)

    Edit: Oh I see others found them too. :D

    This description lists them as Nic salts pods which I don’t think they are? They seem pretty harsh to me at 24mg and I thought salts were supposed to be a lot smoother.

    Blu for $1? Sounds like the old "Razor and Blades" trick. Give them the razor free or nearly free then sell them the consumable replacement parts at a highly marked up price.

    Well, you’re right about the high price for replacement pods, but the $1 seems to be a trial offer only. Kits will return to the $20 price at some point (and they were $40 or so when they were sold as My Von Erl).

    Yeah I don't know. I just ordered 20 kits and I don't have them yet. Nor have I ever vaped nic salts either. But I have vaped plenty of 18mg and 24mg nic juices though. :)

    I've been trying to figure it out. They want either like 9 bucks per pod or it might be 9 bucks for two pods. Let's say say $4.50 per pod. Or like 3 bucks per ml of juice. Ouch! :shock:

    The link to the site is fine, but when the 'offer' is clicked on, I get "
    We're sorry, but the page you requested could not be found."

    Will look elsewhere...thanks...you're a sweetie in any event. : )

    eJuices has 1969 MyBlu Starter Kits left and free shipping. :)
