Navigating the best vape devices on offer nowadays can be overwhelming. We know you’re super busy, and we want to make your choice as easy as possible. So, we’ve dug into the benefits of each of our blu vapes – both disposable and reusable - so you can get the right one to fit your life.

Let’s dive in and look at the differences between our blu bar 1000 disposable vape vs our reusable vapes (our closed blu 2.0 pod device and open blu PRO™ e-cig.) After that, the rest is up to you!

CHARGING YOUR DEVICE: BLU BAR 1000 VS BLU 2.0 VS BLU PRO

BLU BAR 1000

As blu bar 1000 is disposable you don’t need to charge it before use – it comes ready to vape – and it can’t be charged. So, blu bar 1000 is ideal for those vape-on-the-go situations where you have no time to plug the device in first.

BLU 2.0 CHARGING

Charging your blu 2.0 is really simple. Each device is shipped partially charged, but we recommend charging it fully before using. Here’s how to do it:

1. Unfold the attached USB-C cord from the pack and plug it into a USB-compatible charging port.

2. Connect the blu closed device to the USB-C cord with the charging contacts properly aligned.

3. Once your device begins charging, the red light will flash on and off when the battery is from 0-20%, the yellow light will flash when the battery is from 21-35%, and the blue light will flash when the battery is from 36-100%. Once the device is fully charged, the battery will display a solid blue light for five minutes before turning off. This should take around 45 minutes.

BLU PRO™ CHARGING

Charging your blu PRO™ takes a little longer but it is just as simple. Follow these steps:

1. Plug the USB charging cable into a compatible device or USB socket, then plug the charger into the port on the side of the blu PRO.

2. The light on the charger will glow red and the tip of the blu PRO™ will flash, showing it’s started charging. To fully charge will take around four hours.

3. Once it’s fully charged, the light on the charger will turn blue. This should take around four hours in total.

BLU BAR 1000

As blu bar is disposable, you don’t need to fill it before use – it comes ready to vape and cannot be re-filled.

REFILLING YOUR DEVICE: BLU BAR VS BLU 2.0 VS BLU PRO™

BLU 2.0 REFILLING

blu 2.0 is compatible with blu 2.0 liquidpods that easily click into the device. Simply insert your chosen flavour pod into the device until it clicks into place. The blu 2.0 has a magnetic lock to keep your pod in place.

BLU PRO™ REFILLING

The refillable nature of the blu PRO™ means that, once charged, you can use one of our blu vape e-liquid flavours to refill. To fill your clearomiser (where liquid converts to vapour) simply unscrew the mouthpiece from the top, put down a paper towel, and carefully fill the outside section of the clearomiser to just below the clear window, before screwing the device back together. Once switched on, you're ready to start vaping.

USING YOUR DEVICE: BLU BAR VS BLU 2.0 VS BLU PRO™

BLU BAR 1000 USABILITY

Vaping doesn’t get easier than blu bar 1000. First choose between a range of 20mg/ml flavours – we have everything from Kiwi Passionfruit to Strawberry Ice - with more intense flavours than ever before.

To start vaping, simply remove the plastic tip on the mouthpiece and the sticker located on the bottom, unlock and you’re ready to go! blu bar 1000 features a security lock so you’ll never have to worry about it getting into the wrong hands.

The mouthpiece on the blu bar 1000 is also semi-translucent which means you can see the liquid level so shouldn’t have any last minute panic about running out. Once you have finished, simply remove the battery and either take it to your local recycling centre or send it back to us free of charge and we’ll do it for you!

BLU 2.0 USABILITY

The beauty of this device is in its simplicity. As we mentioned, once charged all you need to do is click in a liquidpod and you’re ready. There’s a range of flavour pods ranging from fruity to minty, all offered in both 9mg/ml and 18mg/ml, and each flavour is made with nic salts for a more satisfactory vape. Fancy a new taste? Swapping your pod out couldn’t be easier, with no need for cleaning between liquidpods, risk of accidentally mixing flavours, or spilling any of your e-liquid.

BLU PRO™ USABILITY

The blu PRO offers plenty of versatility including a refillable flavour tank with a transparent window so you can see how much e-liquid you have left. Once fully charged and filled with e-liquid, you’ll have enough charge to last for a full day’s vaping (based on average usage levels). With 10 flavours to choose from and nicotine strengths of 9mg/ml and 18mg/ml, you’re sure to find your perfect vape liquid.

SO, WHICH IS THE BEST VAPE PEN FOR YOU?

Only you can know which vape pen is right for you, but we hope this guide has helped! As we have seen, the blu bar is designed to start vaping straight away, but it can’t be re-filled. blu 2.0 is also very simple to set up, and can be charged and used again, with easy pod switching between flavours. The blu PRO™ can be re-charged and re-filled, and it provides the most flavour choice with the longest battery life of all the blu devices.

Can’t decide on just one? You don’t need to! You could even have a mix of different devices so you’ll always have a vape to match your vibe.
