When I first tried blu, a friend of mine had it, and I loved it, so I decided to order my own.

Out of the box, it was great, unfortunately, I only have one problem, which is now starting to frustrate me.

When I stick a new cartridge on it, I take a few drags, and it's perfect... however, after three or four good drags, I just don't feel it anymore... I still get the vapor, and it still satisfies my cravings for a cigarette, but i just don't feel the normal "burn" in my throat, and that's one of my favorite things of smoking..

Is there anything I can try, or something I might be doing wrong to cause this?

i had the same issues with my blu


they dont hold much liquid in their cartridges and once the atomizer is broken in it will burn up more juice at once, leaving you puffing a few drags, and then the cart is empty, or the juice in the cart hasnt had enough time to wick onto the atomizer

i fixed that by removing the cartridge inside of the mouthpiece and dripping non-blu e-juice right onto the atomizer 3 drops at a time, this usually lasts me 2x the length of a blu cart for straight puffthrough, then i reapply

if you let the blu sit with stock carts it will absorb more juice from it's filling material, but it still wont be much

look into some e-liquid vendors or be smart and learn how to make your own liquid - i made some mango just moments ago, it's delicious

and cost me 60 something cents to make the equivalent of approx. 20 blu carts

Amazing, thank you. After reading this, I took material out of two different cartridges, which was much tinier then I thought it would be, and put them both in one mouthpeice, and I could tell the difference instantly, instead of just three or four good drags, I probably got ten, and if I give it a few min., I bet the atamizer will soak some juice up and I can get more.

I won't be ordering my cartridges from blu, and I don't feel bold enough to make my own juice, but I will probably buy some juice and see if I can find a better material to hold in the cartridge, I was browsing and someone mentioned wool, so I think I might try that.
