I go the Blu cig and now it is hardly working. I have been smoking cigs for the pass 2 days becuase this Blu is not work right. I did order the eGo last week and just cant wait till it get here. i just feel bad going back to smkoing bacause i am coughting again and can tell that vaping is alot better for you.

I have a question too?
I ordered this Joye eGo 510 - Special ECF Offer from E-Liquid and Electronic Cigarette Shop - Category Listings. it says it come with 5 x tobacco cartridges. When I get it can i just fill my own juice in it or do I have to vaping what is in the cartridges?

OK
Cartridges or cartomizers can be refilled. With carts you will get maybe 1 or 2 analogs before needing to top off with liquid. If that is too much hassle for you I would consider ordering some cartomizers. They last maybe 7 analogs maybe a bit more.

I like the Boge low resistance soft cap cartomizers personally. They are $8 for a box of 5 at LiteCigUSA for example.

Edit: I know there has been some discussion about LR hurting the battery but I have not had an issue - thus far. Perhaps this is because I have been using Boge and they are 2.0 Ohms. My understanding is that some LR are 1.5 ohms...

Sorry to hear you had to go back to analogs, maybe somewhere near you carries one of those disposables to hold you over, they are usually around $10.

The stuff in the pre-filled carts taste awful, just use a paperclip or toothpick and pull out the filling, rinse it out good, then squeeze it out with a paper towel til it's dry. Then just add some drops of your own juice til it is slushy but not pooled on top.

You can definitely rinse the tobacco liquid out of the carts and the poly filling, then refill with your own e-liquid very easily. I have the same set from the same company, and I refilled them with my own e-liquid.

Sorry you have to go back to analogs - I guess I don't blame you if the Blu isn't cutting it. But I will say that LF's shipping is pretty darn fast, so your wait won't be very long.

Hang in there. Alot of us have gone through a similar experience with first kit. You will like the new one that's coming. Good luck and let us know how you like it. :)

PS. Soft tip cartos are very easy to use around $8-9. Also get a drip tip too around $5.

I had that problem to with my first ecig, then I got a tornado from totally wicked and no more problems now, but I went back to analogs for a week then went back to vaping , so just hang in there:)

Welcome, Officer!

I agree that you should at least try cartomizers. They are very convenient, especially on the go. The most reliable and user friendly 510 cartos are, in my opinion, Boge. You can find them here for a very reasonable price and fast first class shipping. I suggest you try both the higher (3.0Ω) and the lower resistance (2.0Ω). The latter tend to burn faster so you have to keep them moist at all times. They take 35 drops of ejuice and can refilled several times. Good luck!

ty u all for the help and yea i am a officer of the law. I am still new here and I really dont know what a cartomizers is????
I will really need some help on how to take out the filter on the carts. it will be my first one. maybe some links to some video<< I have seen alot of videos on how to refill carts for my eGo coming, but know nothing about cartomizers?
 
Cartomizers can be refilled by just dripping into the metal hole, or filling one of the rubber ends up with some juice and pushing the carto into it metal end down.
I have not tried the blu cig but I didnt see any good reviews on it. I would recommend picking up one of the 7-11 joye products, not the best but better than analogs.
I hear really good things about the eGos and I hope you get yours soon.

Hi ncofficer - the filling in your cart is loose, you can use something as simple as a paperclip or a tweezers to pull it out. Then just rinse it under hot water thoroughly and paper towel pat it dry best you can...you can then simply slide it back in and drip 5-7 drops (I think thats the number). I don't use carts regularly so I am not sure. A cartomizer is an all in one unit by the way...it has the filler material and the atomizer coil all in one unit. They normally can hold much more juice...hope this helps.

I love smoking real cigars, just can't afford them thats why i am on the ecigs.. if i could afford smoking cigars hands down would be smoking them over the ecigs..but the ecigs are overall ok. I have the 510 yeti with special mixes it has a good cigar taste the Blackbeard's Revenge is the best tasting cigar taste EVER..its Cuban-rum and 555 mixed in equal amounts.
