You could always pass it along to someone interested in vaping (if it still works?), perhaps?
I have been dripping mine a little, not bad while I am sitting here at the computer not getting anything else done.
I just ordered some 306 cartomizers to try on it, mainly because I seem to have an insatiable urge to keep shopping for ecig stuff
Sell it in the classifieds? Or PIF

I'd say either give it to a friend who is interested in PVs (and tell them to pass it on if they move on to something new) or list it on craigslist.
If it's still working, maybe keep it as a backup? You never know when something might happen, so it's a good idea to have at least one backup. I currently have 3 units I keep as backups (keep trying new stuff and don't want to get rid of the old, lol).
- give or loan to a friend who smokes?

Not that good for dripping since it's auto batteries. You have the carto model? You can use it for testing juices w/ (I think) blank 306 cartos? I don't know where you get 306 cartos. You may be able to put a 306 standard resistance atty and and cart or drip tip on it if you don't care about possibly killing a battery. I drip on a 306 on my 510 and I haven't had any juice leaks through the atty yet.
Do not use a Blu charger to try to charge 510 or 306 batteries - the Blue charger is supposedly the opposite polarity and the only part that matters to is the batteries. Mark your blue charger cable if you leave it set up.

+1 for passing it along to someone to get them off analogs and into vaping. Warn them that it is possibly the lowest end ecig ever made, and that they'll have problems, and need to upgrade shortly.
I've got one sitting here in front of me. I wanted to tear it apart to reclaim the battery connectors, but my wife is going to try to pass it along to someone at work.

Wasn't aware of the charger polarity.... good to know. Right now all my other stuff is 808
I liked the idea of the Blu much more than the reality
Would be hesitant to loan it to another newbie wanting to try ecigs because it might turn then off for a year like it did me. I loan them some of my other stuff. Want them to like ecigs as much as I do.
Haven't had any leaking while dripping (yet) but not to say it won't happen the next time I do it
I ordered 306 cartomizers from mr.e liquid, haven't gotten them yet, hoping they will work for backups.... seem to think I need backups for the backups...
OK, I gave 1 blu battery, 1 volcano battery, a blu usb charger, and a 5 pack or blu tobacco cartomizers to my little cousin. She just found out she's pregnant and has not been able to quit smoking yet.
So hopefully that stuff went to a noble cause. If she likes it I will give her some more stuff and recomend she make the switch to V4L Vapor King like me!

I actually kept mine for sentimental reasons. Thought I would make a shadow box display with some sort of "the day I stopped smoking" faux certificate or something behind it. I quickly moved on to bigger and better PVs but as pathetic as it was, the blu got me to love vaping.
Yeah, the Blu got me started as well. I went from 2+PAD to zero cigs the day I got it. Unfortunately, the equipment failed within 2 weeks and at that time (just under 2 years ago) their customer service sucked and we never did get replacements.
It was decent while it lasted though.

Put a Bic pen cap on it and attach it to your shirt pocket. Great way to conceal it at work if that's an issue.
Works fine dripping, I did it for almost a year w/o knowing any better..a couple of drops on the bridge..the charger looks like a pack of cigs, no worries on mixing it up! Still get mine out when I need both hands available...I have several extra of the old attys & the old cartridges so I could use it for quite some time.
I still have my blu. It is a fun little vape every now and then. So portable and discrete and actually a nice tobacco vape.
Keep it as a reminder of your first positive step to get rid of the "stinkies". Definitely not a waste as it did get you here.

Really? I sent back so many things, never to be told no..I swore they'd get sick of me! I just paid for my shipping costs & got all new stuff constantly...that's what kept me with them for so long.
