Hello

By "pro" you mean "premium" or did they introduce a new one? I haven't paid attention to Blu much lately.

If you mean whether other cartridges will work on Blu batteries, they will. But there's more than one kind of screw threads out there. Blu uses 510 threads. You can, also, buy "blank" 510 cartomizers and fill them yourself. I used to. It's kinda tedious though I have to warn you.

Most folks move to a clearomizer or tank system. I spy tarted with Blu myself but got frustrated with their short battery life and overpriced cartridges. That's how I ended up here, I was trying to find a better way. Did too.

But, yes, you can use other cartos on Blu. Long as you make sure they have "510 threads". Otherwise, they won't screw onto the battery.

Boge cartos work well on Blu batteries and you can fill them with any juice you can get your hands on. Google them and you'll find many many sellers.
Eventually though, you'll want to move on to a better battery. Pretty much all of us here did the same thing you are doing... though Blu wasn't out when I started...

Thanks all.
Mark it is "pro" and it is liquid not cartridges but thanks anyway.
Much appreciated.

Huh, that's a new one on me then.

I also notice autocorrupt "corrected" my attempt to type "I started" to "I spy tarted" in my post. SO helpful that!

Anyway, if it's a refillable tank, yes, you can use any juice you want. The basic "formula" for vapor is pretty simple and universal. Pretty much just variations on a straightforward, simple recipe. LOTS of variations and variety but basically, fundamentally, the same. PG and/or VG, nicotine, flavor, sweetener (in sweet flavors that is).

Kinda like cakes. There are a bazillion varieties but the basic ingredients are pretty much the same in all of them...

(Oh, make that "almost any" juice. There are some that damage certain types of tanks. Like cinnamon will chew up a plastic tank. Citrus flavors also. But that's generally true, not limited to any one manufacturer.)

You can use any liquid at all.

Just be aware, when you need spares and/or replacements, blu are way off the pace for price (too expensive) and innovation (old, and mostly poor products).

Get into independent vaping stores and equipment - get the latest and best for less money.

Try here

Myepack.co.uk

or there's even a great place in Liverpool called "Rojeans"... might be a little more expensive, but you won't be giving your hard-earned to the big (and nasty) e-cig brands.

Noob that I am, I thought maybe you were throwing out some new, fancy vaping lingo I had never encountered before, mkbilbo. You coulda kept that to yourself, and left us all impressed!

Welcome to the forum! Hopefully you enjoy the Blu it's a decent place to start. If you're lucky you will fall into the lovely world of vaping and spend too much money on lots of cool mods and tanks .

You gotta link? Now I'm curious what Blu's up to...

(PS, never be afraid of asking "dumb" questions. We were ALL noobs once.)
