How do bloog cartridges flavor compare to greensmoke? I was using blucig as my first e-cig for a couple of weeks. Not such a great product, but the taste using their cartridges was great. I just received my greensmoke in the mail a few days ago and the only real problem I had with it was the taste using the v9 cartridges bought from them. I ordered the 16mg cartridges in the variety pack and they all taste very bland and nearly intolerable.

I'm assuming that its their cartridges and not the amount of nicotine that makes them taste this way. Can anyone comment on the taste of bloog, smoke 51, or any other cartridges compatible with greensmoke?

Well... Last week, i finally made up my mind to try electronic cigarettes.

I didn't want to buy a full kit because i wasn't sure if i would like it and did not want to waste more money than i had to. So i decided to order just the battery, a usb charger and a few flavors of carts. I saved about $40 over the cost of a kit.

I chose standard shipping, again to save a few bucks... I knew it was going to be about a week to ship from NJ to CA. I grew more excited each day in anticipation of the arrival date, on the day it was scheduled to arrive i found myself pacing around, cursing FedEx for taking their sweet time to get me my shiny new toy!

Finally, its Friday evening around 5pm and FedEx rings the doorbell, i thank him and immediately start ripping the box open. Inside are several nicely packaged black boxes, a free pack of M&M's and a packing slip. I grabbed the packing slip first, i thought it was the instructions, unfolded it... saw "packing slip" at the top and i was about to put it down when i noticed some hand written words on the page. As i look down i see...

USB Adapter - OUT OF STOCK - BACKORDER

My heart sank... now what do i do?? i try to call, but of course its friday after closing time. Now here i am with this damn thing taunting me, luckily it had enough power for me to try it out for a little while. Although maybe that was worse, because now i know i actually like it and the battery just blinks at me in a mocking way.

I like the product, and i debated even posting this... and the only reason i am is because i was not notified in any way that it was out of stock, not when i placed the order, nor when i received order confirmation, nothing.

Does anyone know if other chargers compatible with this? can i try to find one locally? anyone know of a place local in the Palm Springs, CA area?

I think the Bloog and the Greensmoke cartomizers taste lousy. But, once empty I refill with my own liquids and I'm happy. I have not found a cartomizer brand I thought tasted half-way decent...but that's me and everyone is different.

ok i will take care of this

got an email from Mike this morning at 7am PST, he asked for the order number again and said he would send the adapter out immediately.

I emailed him back at 8am with the order number asking if it could be shipped overnight, and if not to please let me know immediately so i could find an alternate source.

8:43PM - still no response :mad:

Not sure... I spoke with Mike on the phone yesterday and he said he would send out an adapter. But i don't know if it went out since my email request for a tracking number has gone unanswered.

If i don't receive the usb adapter by tomorrow, i would like a refund. could you PLEASE let me know as soon as possible whether or not it will be here so i can order it from someone else if i need to. Also, can you tell me the model of the battery that i received? is it the KR808D/D1?

After trying all day, i finally got Mike on the phone again (emails remain unanswered). He told me that it was sent out, but he wasn't in the office to get me a tracking number. When i asked how it was shipped, he told me it went out FedEx ground, and said that is the way it is shipped unless a customer specifically asks for overnight shipping and pays for it. Which, by the way, i did request it and was told it would be sent overnight.

At this point, I am not waiting another week to use the product and I'm ready to send everything back for a full refund, please tell me what i need to do.

I am very sorry about this...fact of the matter is the kit should never have been sent incomplete in the first place.

Everything else is just human error and timming after that ...the charger was sent ground before you requeted it over nighted unfortunately.

if you want to wait for the charger for this problem we could refund you 15% .... for your trouble...

or you can just mail back the complete kit for a full refund...

I am sure you will love this unit if you choose to wait...


let me know thanks!

the bloog is not a generic it is one of a kind. It is our own design which is a cross between the loong totem v9 (smoke 51) and a kr808d (vaporking fro v4l)....

I speciafically worked with a chinese manufacturer to blend these 2 ecigs....

It is the length of a 100 cigarette ....has about a 4-8 hour battery life ...the throat hit of the Kr808d with a smaller sleeker design...

the threads on the battery and carts, and the voltage are compatible with the loong totem V9 however...but our carts are nothing like the v9....more like the Kr808d..

I tried the GreenSmoke before the Bloog, menthol (can't speak for the other flavors), and the GS ones are quite strong and acid tasting to me. Lots of vapor, but taste horrid. The last thing I'd call GS is "bland". The Bloogs are much milder and tastes a bit sweeter. I like them much better, but again that's me. Sorta like the mentol of a Smoke Stik, but a bit more thoat kick. Never tried Blu, canceled my order after 3 weeks of waiting.
