Oh I am blown away! I have try'ed everything else and nothing compares! In retrospect I think I am mostly just dissapointed in the brand I chose more than anything. After discovering that Prop-glycol isn't exactly what I thought it was I feel way better! I chose the Bloog because they were on the list of manufacturers approved by the National E-cig association and were in the middle ground on price. But i can guarentee you that it is very possible, and not all that hard, to overwork the bloog cartomizer and be smoking plastic! I just wish i'd have found this forum before choosing my brand.

Yeah I agree! It stands to reason that you should probly let it soak up some juice after each hit. I can see where it would get hot and burn through the first layer if you don't give it a rest. They should really warn you in the instructions though. Or at least construct it so that it cannot burn through to something plastic. I really think I'm going to send it back and try the Joye products. Prices are definitely better!

Thanks for all the info and good advice folks! So I see that the 510 is just an atomizer... what else will I need? Which one is the best starter kit? I am assuming I'll need chargers and cartridges and juice?

Due to customs issues the 510 is out of stock! I guess I still feel like these can't possibly be worse than real tobacco. I'll just smoke these till they start to dry out and no more puffing every last drop! I was just tryin to make sure I didn't waste them. I have like 25 days to still send the bloog kit back - - so we'll see what happens...

lol sorry I just realized that my emoticon is pointing up! I meant "stupid me"!

Thanks but I think I'm done... I just read on the bloog web site that these things contain propyline glyclol... thats antifreeze folks, in case ya didn't know! I would just as soon die from cancer smoking real cigs that I really enjoy! I can return the kit for my 90 bucks but I guess I'm eating the cartridges cause it says "for sanitary reasons cartridges cannot be returned". This is all sort of aggrivating because I really try'd to research these before I bought them. I watched the video of that senator or whatever he is from the Ecig association web site and became convinced that these were probly safe. I'm not so sure anymore. But hey I'm open to arguements if somebody would like to inlighten me. Then again I didn't join this forum to start arguements or flame wars either. I've try'ed just about everything you can imagine to quit smoking and I guess if i can't do it on my own I never will. I just wish I'd known all of this before I wasted 150 bucks that I didn't even have. Oh well, the folks at Discover love me!

Hey sorry to bother you folks but I recently took the plunge and purchased the Bloog starter kit. I was really surprised at how well they worked! But tonight I decided to tear into a nicotine cartridge just to see whats in them and to my surprize I found two layers of spongy material that was wet with the "juice". I lit the inner layer and it burned clean so it must be made out of cotton or some other natural material. It's the second layer that scares me. I lit it and it melted and was obviously made of plastic. I get the idea. They are wrapping the element with cotton or something natural to keep it from burmning the plastic stuff. The problem is that if your not paying attention you can get it too hot and it burns right into the plastic stuff. Now I know the whole idea is to get us away from the carcinogens that tobacco contains but come on! I would dare to say that smoking plastic is probably worse! So now I just don't know what to think? Has anyone else around here ever taken a cartridge apart and noticed this?
