New Style Blu Cartridges Review
User reviews after to 01/17/2011 apply to the NEW style cartridges and ones prior apply to only the old cartridges.
The new cartridges are completely redone and offer a high quality user experience
Blu e-cigarette cartridges now last as long as most of the other cartridges on the market today. Blu was able to still keep the cost down to $12.00 for a 5 Pack while delivering an astonishing 100 cigarette equivalent (5 Packs) per refill pack. Consumers no longer have the need to switch our cartridges several times a day as each Blu Cigs cartridge delivers the equivalent of a pack of cigarettes.
These are not the same old cartridges presented differently, they now provide a built in atomizer to allow users a truly maintenance free experience. That means every time you puff the Blu E Cigarette, it will be like the first time. Reusing atomizers can lead to a lower quality experience and produce less vapor. It also costs more in the long run because the e-liquid inside is wasted as the atomizer cannot utilize the full amount of liquid. They also have more liquid packed in and stronger flavors. The new cartridges allow you to experience the Johnson Creek Flavors like you never have before.
The Blu cartridges come in your choice of 4 flavors, including:
- Cherry Crush, Magnificent Menthol, Java Jolt, Classic Tobacco
The Blu cartridges come in 4 levels of nicotine strength:
- 0mg, 8mg, 12mg, 16mg
Consumers who still have some of the old style cartridges should continue to use them until they are gone and then purchase the new style cartridges. The new style carts still screw right on to the same Blu battery, so there is no replacement cost. Blu has also continued to have e-liquid Made In The U.S.A. to ensure high quality.
Old Style Blu Cartridges Review
User reviews prior to 01/17/2011 apply to the old style cartridges
Blu e-cigarette cartridges do not last as long as most of the other cartridges available on the market, but Blu cartridges are also much less expensive than most e-cig replacement cartridges. Blu cartridges do not contain an atomizer, but many fans of Blu like the fact that the cartridge retains a consistent flavor and also a consistent amount of vapor with each puff. A Blu cartridge lasts about 100 puffs, or the equivalent of 7 tobacco cigarettes.
Blu Cartridges vs. Tobacco Cigarettes
Each Blu cartridge lasts approximately the same amount of time as 7 tobacco cigarettes. Blu cartridges are sold by the carton, and each carton contains 25 cartridges for $25, so each cartridge costs $1. When you puff 3 Blu cartridges, it is approximately the equivalent of smoking 1 pack of tobacco cigarettes, so this is the same as buying a pack of tobacco cigarettes for $3.

The blu ecig is a great cigarette, i just received mine and I ordered the vanilla flavor. The flavor is good but its like a mix of tobacco and coffee. The vapor amount is terrible. I dont know what people mean about the battery life, mine seems to last a long amount of time, only if you use the USB charger though. All in all the cigarette is great for its price, just wish it was refillable.
battery life isn’t too great, but it charges decently fast. i can get enough vapor, unfortunately you have to take slow and long drags to accomplish this, and it doesn’t happen all the time. the java jolt tastes burnt, the classic tobacco tastes like coffee, and the menthol could taste more minty. haven’t tried the cherry or the vanilla. will soon. the e-cigs a little heavy, but then again most e-cigs are. as for helping cravings and such it definitely does help. i’ve tried better e-cigs, but i’ve tried worse. sometimes when you bump them or something to that affect the light will go off, so i don’t recommend putting them in your pocket or even carrying them around much. the warning flash when you are using it too much is slightly annoying, but oh well. the accessories are cool and they give you a bunch of different options to charging it. the cartridges are pretty cheap and the e-cig is smaller than most i’ve seen. Not too bad, but not the greatest.
Way to go Blu Cigs, the new carts are great. I have discovered that it is possible to refil the new carts by sticking a pen in the end on the atomizer to remove the plastic cover, get a refill kit from Johnson Creek, refill the atomizer, replace the cap and viola. I have notice if you use the classic tobacco flavor carts as the refillable it gives a better flavor with the Johnson Creek liquids. Also, if you stop vaping after the first hint of the nasty bad taste starts, and refill then you will not be dissapointed with the results. As a rule, plan on ordering one classic tobacco refill pack per month and refill the rest of the month for a huge cost savings. Give it a try, it works and expands your flavor choices a lot.
I’ve stopped using my old Blu after I got fed up with the old messy cartridges. I liked everything about the product, but the cartridges sucked and the flavor was only good for the first few hits until the atomizer started burning them. Having to replace atomizers and what not was a big PITA.
The new cartridges are WAY better! I received the new ones today, and tried the menthol and the cherry one. I never cared for the cherry in the old cartridge, but the new one tastes like cherry hookah. It’s absolutely delicious! I’m very happy with it, I have yet to kill the first battery (on the initial charge out of the box) and the first cartridge is going strong without any hint of a change in taste of vapor production. This absolutely restored my faith in the product.
As far as shipping goes, I’ve ordered from them a total of four times. I live on the west coast and it usually took anywhere from 3 to 5 days to receive my shipment. I consider that to be somewhat quick, others may disagree. Haven’t had an issue with their customer service, haven’t had to call them yet. I did notice the battery is sensitive, so you have to unscrew the cartridge from the battery when you place it in the pack. This can be a tiny bit annoying and if you don’t do it the battery will engage every now and then and will cause the cartridge to leak (it was like that with the old ones, haven’t had this happen with the new cartridges yet). Either way, I recommend you unscrew the cartridge from teh battery before placing it in the pack. If you do that, your battery charge will last a long time and the flavor of the new cartridges is GREAT! Faith restored.

I have to work way too hard to get vapor. I have to draw 3 or 4 times quickly to get a noticeable amount of vapor. this isn’t how a cigarette works. I had more luck from a disposable. The taste could be better. Leaves a bad after taste. The disposable left none. Also really wish I could refill so I could use other Johnson creek smoke juice flavors. Seems like this would be simple enough since they are partnered with Johnson creek for their flavors. On the plus side, they really have the packaging figured out. They are a great size, the black is classy and the charging pack is awesome.
If their customer service was better, I would give it a 5. I recommend the product, just wish CS was a little more responsive!
The new Blu Cartridges are amazing! They restored my faith and support of Blu. They shipped really quick and I have had no problems getting the pack of cigarettes out of each as they said. I wouldn’t hesitate, just buy Blu!
These carts are awesome. I can finally get a lot of vapor from one of the smallest e cigs out there. I showed my wife and now she ordered Blu because she was jealous.

Been using this for a few days. Not overly impressed, but its not so bad.
I finally received mine today after a couple of weeks. The starter pack is great simply because it contains a lot of “fun” accessories, however every single flavor seems to taste more like a pipe then a cig. The vapor is good, but I had much better luck with a cheap gamucci disposable… normally I smoke menthol and the menthol leaves an after taste similar to toothpaste… so far I am planning on returning it. As much as I like the ease of all of the accessories that come with it, if the taste is this BAD, I know I won’t keep using it.
I am very upset with greensmoke changing their carts…I just can not stand the taste of their new carts… I heard that Blu is going with a new company for their carts and I’m sure you will all love it. I order my e-juice from this company and I am just waiting for their new carts to come out. Blu…please make a larger battery or a battery that lasts longer….
no vapor no battery life. But the recharge pack is a 10+ great idea love that part. There tobacco carts taste like a flat coke.You have to remove the little foil from the atty before use. I think most of there problem is getting the battery and atty up to specs. and then they could be number 1 for sure. Would also like to see a vg cart. The size is right the weight is a little heavy on the end ,someone said it felt like the weight of a one hit?, I would pay 20bucks more for a better battery and atty just to get the most smoke. For me I need to see the smoke. So hang in there Blu!
