New member! Need help with e-liquids

[tahwwhat]

Hi!

I'm a new member here.

I just bought a blu e-cig. It's ok, but it's definitely not excellent... I am hoping for some advice on what kind of e-liquid to buy to refill the carts that come with the blu. They run out way too quick even though I'm not a heavy smoker. Where should I buy the juice? I'm looking to buy light nicotine and no-nicotine juice. I have no experience at all filling cartridges myself. Where should I start?

Thanks,
T

I'm a total noob here, too, but I can tell you what I did. I went to the e-liquid reviews part of this site and read what other people were saying about the different companies and about what they liked and didn't like. My first real juice order was with freedomsmokeusa and I have to say that I really have been liking their RY4, Thin Mint and Butterscotch Almond flavours. But I am probably going to be a juice ho and spread my money around trying new stuff. I just made an order with Ms T's, and am eagerly awaiting those. Go check out the reviews, they are really informative.

Check out the vendor list at the bottom of this site's home page.

All are approved and are excellent suppliers.

Which BTW that video was made by the Vice President of Vapor4life, which is the e-cig i use, and where i buy all my juices. Even if you dont buy from them, watch Leafords videos, they can really help you out when your a beginner vapeing.

Most of the US juice makers offer low or no nic as an option. A couple to try are:

VaporBomb.com

FreedomSmokeUSA

Ms Ts Bakery Essentials Inc.

There's many more but these are good and have been getting good reviews lately.

First off, Welcome!
Secondly, I also started with a blu and was very disappointed with its vapor production and how short the cart life was. Personally, I returned my blu within the first 30 days and got my money back. But before I returned it, I ordered and received a 510 Starter Kit. It cost $10 less then the blu and the difference was night and day! Got mine at DietSmokes.com but lots of vendors sell variations of this kit. Check out YouTube and search "510 e cig review".

As for refilling carts, you'll need to use a paperclip to push the cart out of the mouth piece. Drip 1 drop at a time until the poly-fill begins to pool. Dap with a paper towel to soak up the excess and reinsert the cart.

Vendors are plenty. Check the suppliers listed in this forum or search "e juice review" on YouTube. Good Luck!

I agree with Serpentine and Spider...check out the ejuice reviews. Personally, I have been using VaporBomb and FreedomSmokeUSA and both are phenomenal suppliers. I would suggest that you do some checking around and look for suppliers that sell sample packs. Stick with small bottles for right now, until you find something you like...and then wait for a couple of weeks. Your taste buds and sense of smell will change quite a bit after you quit / cut down on smoking analogs, so what tastes horrible now could taste wonderful in a couple of weeks and vice versa. Also, don't be afraid to try a variety of flavors. As you read, you'll find many people that started out with mainly tobacco flavors and have since moved on to more fruity / sweet flavors.

Personally, despite being a PAD smoker, I just haven't liked any of the tobacco flavors that I've tried and find that I truly enjoy the fruity / nutty / desert-y stuff.

Good luck with your search and, most importantly, enjoy it!

This video was a big help to me. If your blu isn't giving this kind of performance… well, the video says it all!

Also there's how to refill your cart.

Thanks so much for the help! I think I am going to try refilling my blu carts before I give up on it. Does anyone know if you have to send it back in the original box to get the refund? I left my box in Alaska lol.

The "blu" actually gives very good vapor if you use a 510 attie /cart,with it.
They are compatible and the chargeing case is very handy to have available.
Also, the small Blu works very well to stealth vape in public.

Hi ya

I started out just like you with Blu and moved on very quickly to a Kr808 because it seemed easier to keep up. Honestly anything is better than a Blu because the carts are very small and the battery life seemed so short.

but that is my opinion...and you need to use what works for you...

anyways...Blu's come p refilled with Johnson Creek juice which I found yummy, until I tried Vaporbomb's juice. Take about a night and day change. Johnson creek tends to start with their base flavor and add other flavors to it. Vaporbomb is just straight flavor from the get go.

The guys at VB are great too, the ejuice is made fresh when you order it and I could never be happier. They also have Flavor of the week, and for 10 bucks for 30 mil of juice...honestly that just cant be beat.

keep up with it.. sometimes you just have to find the right ecig and juice combo.. but when ou do.. you will love it.
