How do You Use the blu Original Pack?
The Original blu Cigs pack was the industry’s first pack that charged your ecigs on the go. It holds 5 cartridges, 1 fully assembled ecig and 1 spare battery. To charge the blu pack plug the wall charger supplied with your starter kit into the wall. Then plug the USB end into the wall charger and the other end into the bottom of the pack. Once the pack is fully charged the blue light in the USB end of the charger will go from flashing blue to turning off completely. Once fully charged your blu Original pack will charge your spare batteries up to 6 times before needing to be recharged. To charge your spare battery inside the pack simply screw your spare battery into the second slot from the left. The blue light on the side of the pack will then light up letting you know that it is charging your battery. Once the blue light on the side of the blu Cigs pack goes out completely your spare battery has been charged and should be unscrewed. Your spare battery can be stored in the charge slot (unscrewed) but should not be left screwed into the charge port for more than 24 hours. For more information on how to operate your blu products please visit the How it Works tutorial page.

How Do You Store Cartridges in the Pack?
The best way to store flavor cartridges in your blu pack is sealed with their cap and leaf seal in place with the end that attaches to the battery facing down in the pack. This ensures that the flavor liquid contained inside is close to the atomizer contained in side and will help for optimal performance from the first puff. If stored upside down with the screw thread to the top then the juice will move toward the mouthpiece end of the cartridge and will take time to flow down to the atomizer inside the cartridge.
