Never been a smoker, just ordered my first e-cig.

[Stabology101]

So all I've ever smoked is cigars and I love they way I feel during and for the hours afterwards from the nicotine, so I figured an e-cig would be a good way to get the nicotine without freezing my ... off out on the front porch in the middle of a minnesota winter. I didn't really do much research but I had seen advertisements for blu cigs and decided to get their starter kit. Any thoughts on these as a beginner e-cig?

Yikes! Cancel your order ASAP!

If you're a cigar smoker, check out VaporKings.com and tell Rob (the owner) I sent you when you order. Pick up the Ryunan (sp?) eCigar.

Stay far away from Blu and anything you see in a mall or gas station.

You'll thank me in the end.

+1 don't order Blu (I've never used one, but I'm getting pretty tired of trying to cheer up all the folks who did)

Good luck getting your order cancelled, even if you have to fight the charge. The above posts are most accurate.

Best of luck.

I learned the hard way. Managed to get one return credited back to me. They refused the other. Did the 510 thing, then the eGo thing, now I'm exclusively on mods. For this guy though, a good e cigar is a much better option, IMO.

Welcome to ECF my friend. Home of vast knowledge on all things vaping related.

BTW - it is spelled RUYAN

Hey... if you want a cigar like experience... go for the 801 atty

I'll have to give that e-cigar a try eventually, but $40 on a disposable unit doesn't agree with me at the moment. I think I'm gonna give the blu cig a try, after reading the reviews it seemed people weren't pleased with the vapor production, but blu recently switch to cartomizers and they are advertising better vapor production so I'll report back after trying it out, it should get here tomorrow.

Give us an update when you get it, we'd love to be able to say yes to blu

You can send the Blu kit back for a refund if you don't open any of the inner packages .. just open the box and get the RMA inside (on the back of the packing slip) and send it on back if you can't cancel your order ... You will get a refund. I have a Blu, and I like it but if you are a cigar smoker, I don't think you will ...

Welcome to ECF, fellow Minnesotan
Peace,

Well, however much you are going to spend on that Blu kit, you could do much better with regards to volume of vapor, and flavor. I would heed the warnings and shop around a little more. I can attest to the 801 atomizer suggestion. I have been using the 801/302 atomizers lately, and they help create a ton of vapor. I know it probably doesn't mean a lot to you, but you will probably be let down as a cigar smoker.

BTW, welcome to ECF. Sorry, just being quick because I don't want to see anybody under-impressed with vaping.

I was a cigar smoker for the last 8 years and my first experience with vaping was with a couple of disposable e-cigars. They were intriguing, but it just didn't work for me. Once I got used to the idea of trying something that looked more like a cigarette (an 808) I was good to go.

The closest thing I've found to the cigar experience, both in size and quality of the vape is the Go-Go. The bigger size, to me at least, seemed much for natural for a former cigar smoker.

Ouch. Always a bummer when someone comes to the forum after ordering a blu. They get a long list of "Oh No!"'s. It's sort of a right of passage. Welcome and good luck.

The ego Tanks have a nice Cigarillo feel to them. And if you're smoking in the style of cigars (no inhale) you may want to up the nic content of your juice.
