Why Not Blu?

i suggest you get some 510 threaded cartomizers for your blu, they screw right into your battery, they fit in the slots for the blu pack, and they will last you DAYS (especially on the blu battery). Also cartomizers are refillable so you will keep costs way down. they go for $6.75 for 5 cartomizers and trust me, you won't need to buy more for maybe half a year if you use them properly.

I recommend litecigusa, i get them there for cheap
This sounds like a great idea - can you tell me EXACTLY what to order? Please !

Battery life is what everyone is working on. While the little stock batteries that are the shape of a tobacco cigarette are getting better, they still run down frequently. When I first started (5 whole months ago), I brought a spare 510 battery and a 510 mega battery with me when I went to work and I also had a USB charger. As soon as I ran one battery down, I'd plug it into my computer to recharge.

A PCC like the charger case the Blu comes with does the same thing if you don't work next to a computer all day. But if battery life is the main reason you are buying a Blu, you can do better buying something that doesn't have a short-lived stock battery. As Domino suggested, you can go with an eGo -- a 510 with a better battery than either the Blu or the standard 510. Or you can go straight to a battery mod -- I have a Little Chuck and I just toss an extra charged battery the size of a C in my bag and I'm good for 15 hours or so. (Sometimes I toss 2 in my bag.)

As for the button on the 510, that's a manual. You choose how long you want to inhale. If you want to drip, you won't destroy the battery (as you would on an automatic.) But 510s are available with automatic batteries if you want. Of course, some automatic batteries have been know to fire up when there's a loud noise (the sound of inhaling them is what starts them.)

I'll bet that you have to take the atomizer off the battery when you put your Blu in the case. Once you do that, you can't use the battery (the circuit or whatever isn't complete.) The same thing is true of a 510. Take off the atomizer and you can push the button for hours without using up the charge.

But the bottom line is what's right for you. If you think a Blu is a good PV for you, get it.

I have Blu and 510. the510 for in the house and driving. a little more throat and vapor, but more importantly you can smoke it like a full cig.
Blu has Throat for 4-5 drags then it needs to wait to resat the att. but it doesnt produce much vapor. that i like when playing poker, or in a place they frown upon vaping. contrary to peeps phrase of smoke anywhere or everywhere, it just aint true. some places won't let you because of the mis-conception of fellow patrons and they don't want peeps to get upset because they think your smoking. with the blue i get the th and then either hold vape till it's nothing or you can exhale into a napkin or your shoulder and no one is the wiser. blu cups in hand great. i can sit for 12 hours playing cards and no one has a clue that i'm vaping. but you do need to get e-liquid cause the carts for both suck. "my opinion"

510 can charge on wall, computer, and car but Blu can charge in pack when you have no access to the others. again like playing poker.

it's best to have several batts, atts, and carts anyhow. "again, my opinion"

Good luck

Keep Vaping
