Hi everyone,

I have a GoGo and a Ego-T which both work good and I love my GoGo but I noticed that it is quite annoying to take it with me to town or clubs, bars, sport events you get the point. So I was looking to buy a cigarette shaped e-cig for such social events but run into a lot of issues and questions to make the right choice. Knowing that there are tons of people here with experience I hope you may be able to help me.

I know that battery life will be low on a cig looking e-cig same with juice capacity and all that but I don't mind since I will only use it for social events which don't last more then 5 hrs or so.

I was thinking about the Joye 510 or one of those Volcano once but maybe you guys can enlighten me with your experience or knowledge would be nice.

I kept hearing that the Bloog Maxx Fusion is the way to go in this regard, so much so that I ordered one myself. I'm in a similar situation as you - I use an Ego most of the time but want something less obtrusive for going out. My BMF should arrive next week sometime so I can't give you a hands on review yet so to speak, but there are some out there if you do a search. Happy vaping!

I find that people are interested in my Ego when I use it at a social gathering. There's always someone who is wishing to quit, but can't stomach the cold turkey method. Today, I was at a family gathering and ended up having to answer questions for a half hour. I wrote down this web site's address and a couple of Ecig vendors.

In a club, you may run into security people who think you are smoking. Some clubs allow Ecigs, some don't, and most of the rest don't care either way. Restaurants are generally non-smoking but ignore ecigs unless someone complains. In the year I've vaped, not one person has prevented me from vaping. I'm discreet, but I know some have seen me blow out vapor. The other day, I was in a Huddle House and vaped after the meal. I exhaled up instead of down once and saw one of the waitresses notice. She came over and asked me what I was smoking. I explained that it was an electronic cigarette and she called the other employees over so I could show it to them! Again, I gave out info.

I'd stick with the Ego for the battery life, and a tank type B atty for lots of juice. Prepare to answer some questions about it. If explaining is a pain, print up some info cards and pass them out. Tell them, "Go here and you can get all the info you need."

Bloog should have most of their stuff in stock, if you piece together the kit. Otherwise, I've tried these but they only have black (matte finish) 65mm w/red led right now Signature Series 808 Kits and Accessories

Nhaler also has the rubberized finish on his 78mm batts KR808D-1 New M.F. Style Batteries His horizontal coil cartos (same as bloog/elitevaporworks) are also in stock, they are called "drippers".

I have all of these, lol. They all perform the same.

I came across EliteVaporworks when Bloog was out of most of their stock, and I personally love their free shipping. However, their selection is limited although I've heard that they do have more colors and finishes on the way.

I started using Nhaler's cartos also when Bloog was out of their blanks, and when he recently started carrying the batts I had to try one for myself to make sure it was the same.

I love my Bloogs as well, I like the 65mm in the rubberized finish. I think it all depends on what you're looking for, color/size/finish/price.

I recommend and use all of them on a daily basis, one is always in my hand :)

I have a 510 that's easy to take along I also have an M402. I like them both if you get a kit with a pcc pack you'd do ok with the smallery batteries.... if nnot you might want an xl (I'm not sure if they make an xl for the m402 but they do for the 510). The 510 is easier to find. They're both pretty inexpensive.

Edit: It may also be relevent that I normally get a warmer hit off the 510.

I've had the Bloog MaxxFusion with 65mm batteries for about two weeks and I like it. It's very good for those occasions when socially vaping or trying to be somewhat conspicuous. Fits in the shirtpocket or pants pocket. I've had good luck refilling the pre-filled cartridges after they were spent using the condom method. The plume of vapor isn't as good as my mod with LR306, 1.5 ohm atty, which by the way is much better than the 510 attys for dripping.

The pcc doesn't look that durable, but it has held up well so far.

i got the BMF and i am very happy with it. i get more vapor with that thing than my ego or riva. 650 ego batts are good and i use them when i have to stay running for hours and hours...however, for social events the bloog maxx fusion is awsome...the 102mm batt will last me 4 hours (i sucks a reg size carto dry in 4 hrs) and its very easy to fill. bmf carto is bottom coils and it doesnt touch the filler at all, which gives you refills like no other carto. 1 carto will last about 20 refills. you can pick parts from bloogs website(which i did), i didnt buy a starter kit...by picking them part-for-part, its also cheaper versus buying the kit (weird i know) get 2 batts, a pack of 5 cartos, a charger and your in business. you canalso get a 808 to 510 adapter so you can use those cartos on the ego. nhaler claims to have the same batteries and cartos as the bloog (although they dont carry the big 102mm battery). i havent tried the nhaler stuff cuz...well.... winning? duh. :) if it aint broke, i aint fixin; it
