E-cigar bling 2008

[just4747]

Why does everyone have problems with their Bling? I've had mine for 1-2 months now and use only cigar-specific carts like the Ruyan ones and other generic flavored ones (no adding of liquid). The draw is never too hard as long as the battery is charged, and the carts work great and never have spats of burning taste...the flavor lasts looong.
Also, the vapor is always there as long as the battery isn't dying. Granted I use my Bling minimally, but it never has these problems ppl mention.

Unfortunately it seems the bling clogs up rapidly with third party juice and voids the warranty but its up to you to tell the supplier

I got my bling today Initial impression is similar to what lucisac has just posted above. I am finding I have to work it hard to get much vapour. But I love the look and the taste of the Ruyan carts is pretty good. It came with an extra battery and loaded with an extra cartridge which was unexpected.

I went for the black and gold one, and i can't fault the finish really. Most here seem to prefer the titanium, but I rather like the lacquered black and gold colour.

papa vapour production increases with use.it takes a good month to break a bling .

Same here with both my blings, one recently completely died after 2 months or so but was replaced within 2 week by heaven gifts

Blings are my main source of nicoteen as its the only problem free device on the market if used with its own ruyan carts.

some advice to anyone new to using a bling.. if your finding the bling to be a really hard draw.

you have screwed the mouthpiece on to hard .

try loosening it and draw and vapour is increased.

I was just looking into getting a pipe when I ran into this thread.
Would some of you recommend a bling over a pipe or a pipe over a bling?
I already have a 901(which I like), and I have one of Trog's srewdrivers on the way...
Just trying to get a collection going I guess heh.

1. Put the tube into clear water (without any risk for the atomizer!) (no detergent! nothing other!!!).
The best solution is to let the tube under flowing clear water by the two holes some seconds.DOING THIS WILL NOT AFFECT Y
2. After the cleaning, you have to dry it blowing and blowing again into the two holes of the tube to eliminate all the water, you can also securely use a hair drier to activate the drying and to be sure it's well dry.
3. Then you have to put a new full filled cartridge in the e-cigar..and wait.. after an hour or more the liquid arrives to the atomizing chamber and insert the full charged battery. Or you can squeeze liquid from a cartridge and drop it into the e-cigar.
4. After 2-10 slow puffs, if a high density smoke appears as the first day, then all is Ok.

DOING THIS WILL NOT AFFECT YOUR GUARANTEE

If I understand this correctly, run tap water in both ends of the tube, then dry with a blow dryer...

Is this still the best way to clean a Bling atomizer?

Kate- Try blowing in the LED end of the cigar until you see wisps of vapor come out of the atomizer- this works to heat up the atomizer (more so than simply inhaling does) to a point where some of the gunk on the atomizer wire 'burns off' a bit- just don't overdo it htough as it could burn out hte atomizer. I've done htis several times with penstyles and it has restored hte performance nicely- but it will leave a 'burned flavor/smell' for a 1/2 hour or so, but that goes away- I'ts kind of a fine art- too much, and the burnt taste/smell is too strong, too light, and nothign happens really. &'ve found that watchign for hte wisp of vapor, then let it go for about 3-4 seconds while forcing hte air through is about right.

eek... tried this with my 901(I had already removed the led cover) and now it tastes burnt and is producing real smoke... just got a nic buzz vaping to much liquid trying to get rid of taste and I still get real smoke when my drips are all vaped

RjG this is the only cleaning method that doesnt effect your guarantee,and ruyan recommend !
if it still doesnt work send the unit back and they will replace.
any other method will make your guarantee void.

Just received my Titanium Bling today. 5 days from order to delivery. Waiting for delivery of the extra batteries & charger from DealExtreme due later this week. I placed the batteries in the charger that came with the kit expecting a 10-12 hr. wait but they only charged 15-20 mins before turning the indicator green. I thought it was the cheap charger included with the kit but have now been puffing most of the day on the same battery with no problem.
At first the taste of the cartridge was awful. I smoke cigars but this was like the floor sweepings of a Mexican bar (Don't ask me how I know)! Happily, after only a few hours the taste has improved greatly & I am really enjoying it now. There must have been some factory prime that needed to be burned off. I wonder if Ruyan has changed their formula recently. I find I am getting quite a bit of vapor out on exhale. Not quite as much as my 901s but way more than I expected from the reviews. I think I will be ordering some more back up tubes from Wayne soon along with more carts.

Yep the primer tastes like crud and takes a good while to go away completely but after 1 day or so its heaven.

I have just ordered some ruyan pipe carts to syringe into the bling so i have 2 different flavours to vape on
