I got home from work to find my mini's waiting for me, along with some blanks (I have a bunch of juice so I only ordered blanks to get started).

These are my first impressions --

The feel of the battery is just... really... nice. I love the satin coating on the battery. The feel of it, the weight of it, is superb.

The blank cart has a "fluffier" batting than what I'm used to seeing in other cartomizers. It took 30 drops of an 80/20 liquid. I think I could have put more in, but — truthfully? — I got anxious and screwed it on my battery. The cart seated nicely when screwed on. It doesn't wiggle on the post, which is nice.

vaping with Bloog is perfect — The draw is perfect, the response is perfect, the vapor is... perfect. I really love that I don't have to "work" at getting vapor out of this thing — It's effortless. I used to get sore throat muscles from 20 second draws to get the amount of vapor this produces in 3 seconds. The vapor is warmer than I'm used to, which is great, and the flavor is right there. It's really clean.

The PCC is cool, but the batteries and cartos are really unbelievable. I'm so happy I came across the Bloog. OK, no more typing; more vaping. :)

@Mactrick: Welcome to the Bloog family! We can't stay on topic, but we are a happy, loving bunch of folks.

Glad to hear your experience was like ours - GREAT!! Leaford and crew really deliver us a quality product that we are passionate about using.

What juices are you using?
I'm new to vaping myself and until Bloog gets its juice up for sale, I'm still looking for my juice supplier.

Again, welcome and vape on!

I'm so happy that you are pleased with your stuff :) Yeah the carto is fluffier looking, and it soaks up juice nicely. Wait til you go to refill that one, you'll be surprised how pristine it still looks in there.

Was kinda funny to see you were happy the carto didn't wiggle on the post -- is that what you are used to from something else?

First time I used a Bloog carto I nearly gagged cuz there was so much more vapor than I was used to. Had to retrain myself that I didn't need such a big draw anymore.

Anyhooo, congrats!

Welcome Mactrick! Glad you like your bloog. Hopefully we'll see more of you around the forums.

Hey, you got the mini, you can vape handsfree and type now! (ok, it took a week or so for my lip to strengthen up, but it works fine now)

I just cut the end off of a condom that comes with the cartos, and keep that on my bloog at all times.

So I vape hands free most of the time.. very easy to just hold it in your teeth with the silicone condom.

I know that the nJoy products in 7-eleven are like that.

what kind of juices are you guys using to get this massive vapor? Im using 80%vg and...i mean its fairly good vapor but not like a LR 510 atty on a riva. I also noticed that the flavor is somewhat muted when i put my own liquids in that i bought from other suppliers...is that something you have noticed too? However, the prefilled cartos that came with the unit had lots of flavor. Using vaporbombs&bluemist&honeyville liquids.

I haven't tried lots of different vendors. My favorite is v4l's Wowboy, which I think is 80p/20v, could be 70/30. When you start getting into juice that is heavier on the VG side, I think it doesn't wick as well, so that might affect the performance. BMF cartos seem to prefer 50/50 or less, depending on how thick the juice is.

Welcome to Bloogville Mactrick
After reading your post I'm just not sure....
How do you REALLY feel about the Bloog....
Just kidding.
Again welcome, and I look forward to your participation in some of the madness around here.

Thanks for the review, Mactrick, and I'm glad you like it! Welcome to Blooging!

Apple,
Good luck with that. The little mouse insists that everyone must have some generic thing with a manual battery. It can be exhausting trying to proclaim the goodness of the Bloog and save people a lot of trouble (and yes, even $$). People seem to start off with the cheap stuff, and end up spending twice as much in the end.

Eager to hear your thoughts.

Mactrick...welcome to the happy vapers corner! :)

should get mine in the mail tomorrow, will post a review. Not getting my hopes too high since I have been let down by sooooo many other e-cig models. But if the bloog is all it's cracked up to be you have no idea how much I'm gonna light up these mother lovin' forums!!

Good strategy -- set your expectations low, then when it turns out to be awesome you'll be that much more thrilled! :toast:

Was it something I said?
Applecracker, I was aiming low too, was quiet about it, didn't tell people, specifically didn't plan to use it exclusively to finally kick the analogs, but it just worked, hope you have the same experience.

And a +1 on popeye's condom sleeve trick. I have one, I don't use is exclusively, just when I know I need handsfree time like working on cars, paddling on the river etc. I just put a hole in mine, didn't cut the bottom all the way out, this help hold the tip in place as I have bit it off a few times when vaping handsfree with a "naked" bloog.

I'm a first time vaper and started with Bloog 1 week ago. I love it! I also purchased a Riva that came today...but I can tell already that Bloog will be my fav of the two. It's true love.

Welcome and congrats on your new edition :) I should go over to the new member's forum and tell people to save their money on those Riva's, I did the same thing. LOL
