So I recently bought a blu e cig Xpress kit, and I keep getting e liquid in my mouth. Is my e cig broken or is it just the cartridges? Should I throw my e cig away? Is it just faulty cartridges? I cant find anything online, and blu just claims on there site to separate the cartridge from the e cig for five minutes and if the problem persists to throw away the cartridge, but it has been happening with the second cartridge now to. I am completly new to e cigs, and there terminology. I am wondering like I said if I happened to be unlucky enough to buy a faulty cigalike or is it the cartridge? A quick answer would be great thanks all!!!!
leaky cartridges please help

First - not a fan of the Blu product. If you're trying to quit smoking and it doesn't work - PLEASE look around more here and get some recommendations for a more satisfying device.
Second - is it fully charged? Is it making vapor but ALSO dribbling juice at you?
If NOT - charge it, make sure it's "on".
If SO - the only thing I can think of is---draw in slow and smooth. Vaping is a little different than smoking. Don't suck so hard! lol
Hope you get it going!

Yeah it's been awhile since my cigalike/cartridge days but you can't
suck so hard and often on them, you have to give them a little rest.
One of the first things I read about on the company website of the
cigalike I started with was you take 3-5 draws, then rest the device
for at least 30 seconds. A way around this is to keep 2 or 3 cartridges
in rotation and change between them if you find yourself sucking on
them too often for it to adequately work.

yeah, better find a decent mod. cig type ones are not that reliable.
i use to have one of those cigarette type back in the days. too tight drag. it gives me gas

thanks all, started puffing on it more slowly and sucking in less with no leaking, been doing alot of research on blu, and definatly want to change products, if any have any suggestions on some different cigalike products, Im not a huge fan of vape pens, but the reviews ive been reading up on on blu are not great, suggestions on some different cigalike brands would fantastic, again total newbie

Man... are you in for a shock.
Before I get into this, where are you from? (US, Europe, elsewhere)...
Blu are a travesty of an e-cig (wow, that's actually the right word... I am dyslexic)
Even if it was half-usable, don't give them your money. Not another

This is an interesting question. The thing is, you and me can buy a cig-a-like kit (from a store, or China) for about $20 or less which is actually quite acceptable.
OK, so the charging might send you to an institution and you'll probably crave your head off for smoking, but hey.... it's do-able.
What you can't do is ask Mr Google.. He'll send you to a "vendor" that wants to charge you $159.99 for that same $20 product. yes... it's true...
Joyetech e-roll, Kanger KR808D, these products DO exist. I have both.
Not to mention they're nearly just as expensive as smoking analogs.
You Blu your $$$...sorry. Tons of starter choices out there for $50 - $70. I have one week on the new Kangertech Topbox Mini. Love it $58 at Vape Royalty. Myvapestore has them also.
The UK has a cig-a-like which is comfortably more expensive than roll-your-own analogs. ($6 cartomizers)
Hard to believe they almost reached 'cult' status. They might have worked for 'lights' smokers but you'd need to chain vape 18 hours a day the Nicotine delivery was so bad.
Tobacco bought them out. People hardly buy them at all these days.
If you like your Blu, keep it. As in most forums you get the cork sniffing crowds replying with buy something else, you wasted your money etc.. When i started out i too used a blu plus and was totally happy with it, still have it btw. I actually preferred the V2 cigalikes, actually that was based on the red liquid, which i still use to this day in my mods. So, as posted above, adjust how you hit it, that should help, and unless you truly want to, do not throw it away.
Started 5 years ago with ecigs. Had a DBA (selling). Now...20 mods, RBA's, RTA's coil builds, factory rebuilds and DIY juice. I can say the Blu is to ecig the same as a Yugo is to cars. No cork sniffer here.
No 'cork sniffing here'. Just plain old hatred of a company that is trying to take over the world (and succeeding by all accounts) with the word 'tobacco company' nicely hidden from the adoring twitter-generation public.
If they weren't actively supporting the end of the refillable era in e-cigarettes, I might even use one. As it is.... they deserve all the negative denigration the community can throw at them.
Getting started vaping is the important bit. Money is rarely wasted on even the worst kit if you get on the right road because of it. Blu is not the right road.
(from the man who spent $800 on cig-a-likes... and never even stopped smoking)
Actually, I agree with your post, just not in relation to this particular brand.
I totally agree with yours as well. I wasnt deeming everyone a cork sniffer, poor choice of words. But as far as the guy with the yugo comparison, i will expound on that, blu cigs., good or lousy, is a tool to help folks quit smoking, just as a yugo in the 80's was a tool to get someone back and forth to work if thats all they could afford. Not everyone can have or needs 20+mods and a garage stacked with ferraris. Again, i apologize for the cork sniffer comment, and didnt mean to offend. Just wanted to support the op as opposed to slamming his purchase. Im happy he is not smoking ciggarettes.
