Or that stuff isn't rampantly copied in China.
Do the Bloog autos suffer from failure due to juice leaking in like other autos? Are there any autos that don't? I'm definitely interested in trying out some Bloog cartos but I don't want to take a chance on an auto battery that could be killed at any time due to a bit of leakage.
I'd also like to be sure that the Bloog cartos are consistently the same Ohm. I've read a bunch about quality control problems in the bloog forum relating to carto consistency, but it seems they're working that out.
Thanks for that PapaB.... That answers my questions for now. I have shelved my tank for the Maxx...
As for the juice... I've been refilling the cartos with my own 80/20 mix with great results...!
Yes, they do. Just be carefull.
One of the first maxxfusion reviewers made the mistake of refilling a carto with the battery attached.
You know what the result was, but that wasn't very... clever anyway.
Just take it off the battery and don't carry around an assembled unit battery side down with a freshly filled carto.
I've had my MaxX for almost 3 months now - I learnt as a newb the proper care and feeding of cartos from the plethra of data acquired from the digital universe - well enough to know that you don't top off a carto with the auto batt attached. I have personally never fried an auto 808 from any vendor - much like I don't throw a car into reverse without first depressing the brake pedal which, apparently was an issue with some 'auto' users and why the manufacturers had to put something into place that forced the user to depress the brake pre-shift... ;-)
I have personally used over 35 MaxX cartos - both prefilled and blank - and have never had any issues that other users have claimed to have had - I am still using the SAME cartos I got on my first order - these dang things just don't quit. With that said though, I am beginning to suspect that there may be something in the choice of juice used.
Bloog uses Dekang - which is 100%PG - us American-type folks find that the 100% PG is a tad too harsh (at least in my case) - Given that all of the testing was conducted using DK juice ONLY, there may be something to the PG/VG blend ratio that may cause these cartos (and any 'other' carto') to have issues. I found that a 70/30 PG/VG blend works really well - but, for those that use higher VG blends - this may be the cause of some of the reported symptoms. VG is generally a thicker juice that does not appear to absorb into the polyfill as well as the higher PG. I think it would behoove you to stick with a maximum of 30% VG...
However, apparently, there was a minor issue that I certain has been worked on, or has already be rectified with regards to the ohm variances reported. I dunno - I have only had total success with this product - not to say that there could have been a bad batch that went out, it's possible - just that I haven't come across any.

That pretty much settles it for me. I'm too used to filling cartos on the battery. Force of habit at this point. I'll probably just wait for the manual. No biggie, I never use autos anyway and use a fatbatt Ego most of the time anyway.
Probably try the cartos at some point or another. I find if you wait on a new product in the ecig biz they tend to work out a lot of the kinks after releasing it.
I've only skimmed this thread so forgive me if I missed someone posting this...but, concerning the Chinese technology and others using the same, Nhaler offers a kit very close/same as the Maxfusion. Anyone see it or try it? I'd be curious to see if the cartos are the same inside...
Hey Turbo - the PCC looks like the new Bloog - but, the cartos appear to be premium softcap 808s - Can't be 100% certain from the pic, but the mouthpiece looks like the standard white cap on prior models. I'll drop Drew@nHaler a line to find out where he got his gear from and check back when I hear something.
The maxx fusion is the maxxfusion.. The new trithing will get its own name. Its not an update on the MF, but its own seperate device..
IT is a manual, auto and PT, and if I win it'll be the TMX!
Good find
Thanks, I have too much money tied up in my Genisis atty project or I'd snag one, but if someone gets one please chime in and let us know. Preferably someone that has a Bloog to compare.
just fyi for others, its been pretty well proven that the first round of blanks for the maxx were all over the map (2-3+ohms) but most were within the range. i just received some blanks from the latest restocking and spot tested about 15 out of the 25 last night... 2.4-2.6 like advertised. i did get one 2.8 but they are fairly consistent now. filled up 5 of them with different juices and been testing them today, all of them hit and taste fine.

Quick question. Does anyone know why the prefilled does not have the little rubber stopper in it, and the blanks do? And what's the purpose for it?
to keep the pre-filled liquid from leaking out of the batt end and to keep the atty clear. no liquid in the blanks so they are not needed.
It's the other way around though. The rubber stoppers are in the blanks, not the prefilled.
My prefilled menthols came with the rubber condoms on both ends...
I'm not speaking of the condoms. It's the little rubber plunger under the end cap.
Anyone know the difference in performance between Bloog's MaxxFusion and their Trifecta batteries? I know the Trifecta can be used as an auto, manual, and even passthrough, but what about battery life, volts, mahs, etc?
If anyone is interested I ran a statistical analysis of the Ohm ratings of Bloog cartomizers from a Data set that ManicMaurice posted in another thread. It is in the Bloog forum.
