Want a better battery for your BLU?

[DawnBella]

Just an FYI but almost any 8.5mm female battery will work. I would suggest using the Modern Vapor Sidesho battery. I am not certain if you can change them in the BLU PCC (I do not own one) but they work and fit perfectly for the BLU carts. I buy them from time to time. Great flavor (wish JC would release it). The Sidesho is a longer battery but double the power and usage time.

Blu Premium & Premium 100 PCC are truly smart.
Not only will they auto charge & shut off.
They'll instantly recognize a non Blu battery.
If you want a better cigalike, buy a Volt or Halo G6.
I'm still satisfied with the Blu 100.
I only use it at work now.

^disagree. This was not about which cigalike is better then blu and G6/Volt are 9.2mm/100+mm (not exactly a mini!) and all smart PCC's do the same thing. I have 3 from 3 different brands. This was about helping those who do not like BLU's battery (L88b) using something with more power but sticking with BLU carts. Anywho - tell me more about the 100. Is it the same diameter as the regular and how much longer is it? Do you have pics of the 2?

From the BLU FAQ:

blu Original & blu Premium are 3.5 inches long and 0.31 inches wide.
blu Premium100 is 3.88 inches long and 0.38 inches wide.
blu Disposable is 4.63 inches long and 0.38 inches wide.

You probably already know that the threading is 510 but the charging in the PCC apparently has the polarization reversed so it won't charge anything but their batteries.

I have seen a picture comparing them but I can't remember where it was.

That was perfect. Mods can feel free to close this thread!

Fin battery works great for blu carts.The blu carts are easy to refill to.The 100's work the best.

I just saw a Fin ad on ESPN.
Much better than the Blu commercial.
What are the batteries like?

Batteries work great,I had to return one.If the led light gos out halfway threw a drag return it,and get another.Some are a hit and miss.The first one i bought lasts all day.The kits are cheap$.

I'm already all good in the mini department.
My Blu Premium 100 kit; still has 6 months left on the warranty.
Also have Jet 510 mini bats for backup.
That's good that Fin is offering a quality mini option.
Another way to go is Groupon.
South Beach, Green Smoke & V2.
Have all sold full starter kits there.
I started vaping with one of those kits.
The whole thing is around $25 shipped!

I had to try this out since it's a 510 connection. I used their carts on a JC Vea, Kamry K100, and a Sigelei Telescoping Zmax V3. They all worked great and actually tasted better, plus it didn't 'time out' on me so I could draw longer.

In regards to the Premium 100's versus the Original: the carts hold more juice and the battery is a little better (doesn't activate in the wind as easily, seems to last longer, times out longer on the draw, and seems smarter?).

Shame is, BLU carts give me a bad headache so I cannot use them. I know there are better units out there and all but I have nothing against BLU. Its a very sexy looking kit too ;-)

 

[harrycan]

Fin makes only 100 carts.Thats why the bat works great for the small blu cart.You dont have to puff as hard,and get that headache neck strain feeling..I take about 10 drags then rotate each cart then let it sit for a day+.For some reason it works great.Iam shure the voltage is higher,but they dont tell you that.

 

[DawnBella]

Never used FIN unless it's the same company that makes a disposable with a white LED tip. If so, OMG YUCK! Taste like a stale marshmallow burning. lol The headache is due to something in JC I think and not a neck thingy.

All the China made disposable\carts taste like that yes"Yuck",and forget refilling that just makes them taste worse.

 

[harrycan]

The best thing about Blu.
Is that they use Johnson Creek Smoke Juice.
They can keep that Chinese crap back in China.
Way worth it to buy US made juice.
Halo & eVo are my favorite juices right now.

I agree,but they dont make blu flavors yet.Some almost taste like it.

 

[harrycan]

Rainier tastes like Cherry Crush.
Red Oak TN Cured like Classic Tobacco.
Summer Peach is way better than Peach Schnapps IMO.

Great i have all them coming sample size.I was hoping to day,but i never get mail on Mondays.

 

[DawnBella]

HALO rules! It's my fav. I like the 'taste' of the blu carts but wow do they dry up super fast. Granted I got them at a store so who knows how long they sat.

Most, but not all I would say.
