I'm not sure whether my question is appropriate for this forum or not. If not, feel free to delete it.

Some people have said that the Smokeless Image VOLT is the same as the Bloog MaxX Fusion. Since I know that Leaford has been involved with developing the MaxX Fusion for Bloog, I've considered that doubtful. From photos and video reviews, the VOLT PCC does seem to be identical ... and my first impression of the VOLT batteries is that they are the same or very similar (to the BMF 65 mm "Mini" size).

The cartomizers are clearly different. For one thing, the VOLTs are hard cap (I can't even pry it off). I can't comment on the taste yet; I ordered the wrong nicotine level for my use (their % designations were confusing) and I have to tough it out to clear it.

Can you comment/clarify? Thanks!

I ordered the 555's from them and they were horrible. I spoke with Rob who is refunding my money and will send me new ones to try when they arrive. Apparently their expections were not what arrived flavorwise and the next shipment will have better flavors and soft tips. Excellent and easy customer service!

Hmm, intriguing idea.

Now, minions, go forth and tell those engadget readers how much better Bloog is than Blu. ;)

I was reading the comments. I don't often post there but there were a few good ones saying that Bloog was the better alternative. One called Blu "the Monster Cable of the e-cigs."

Leaford usually signs on late in the evening and I didn't want your question to go unanswered until then. It's my understanding that Volt and NHaler's version of the battery is very similar, but not exactly the same. Leaford has said he worked with his people to regulate the voltage & other tweaks. There's a new version of cartos too.

But I'm sure he can give you more detailed answers when he gets on and sees your questions :)
 
Hey Leaford, I asked about this a little while back, but are you going to add shipping to Australia to the website?

We need bloog here.

I can answer this myself, the new bloog site just took my order! Shipping was a little steep at nearly $30 though, but hopefully that is express shipping.

so...when will you start selling to e-liquid by itself? any info on pricing?

Soon, and no idea yet.

ive heard many oxymorons in my time...but this one takes the cake! lol ok ill be waiting. meanwhile, someone suggest a ry4 flavor thats close to bloogs ;-)

I think Leaford was saying "soon" to this part of your question:
so...when will you start selling to e-liquid by itself?

And this part, "and no idea yet", was in answer to your second question:
any info on pricing?

But yeah, I had to read it a couple of times to figure that out. :)

Yes, it probably was - no order confirmation yet, but the money appears to have been taken from my account.

I also couldn't get any discount codes to work either.

I just put some stuff in a basket and while it took a coupon code and said congratulations or whatever, the price did not change so the code wasn't actually applied. Also some of the text in the checkout process was white on a white background (using Chrome as my browser, FYI). I think I'll wait a few days for the kinks to be worked out. ;-)

Is it just me or did the starter kits drop in price? That would be a great move I think. Got some friends bugging me for a good kit and the old $90 kit was just too high to recommend but the new prices seem more on par with what you find elsewhere. I've just been waiting on giving them any recommendations because I didn't want to say "you should get this item form these guys and that item form these other guys and this thing is great but its been out of stock for months" and yeah... you get the idea. ;-)
