target="_blank" title="blu cigs batteries" href="http://wiki.blucigs.com/154/blu-cigs-batteries/blu-cigs-batteries-faq/" target="_blank">battery</a> (blu Disposable is not rechargeable) and a unique, replaceable cartridge containing the exclusive <a

When you inhale (drag on the cigarette), it activates the cartridge, which vaporizes the solution.</li></ul><p>3. Does blu produce smoke?</p><ul><li>No, <strong>blu</strong> produces a <a
target="_blank" title="Blu Cigs - how it works" href="http://www.blucigs.com/how-it-works-premium100" target="_blank">vapor</a> which looks like smoke, but disappears in seconds.</li></ul><p>4. What makes blu better than other <a
target="_blank" href="http://www.blucigs.com/store" target="_blank">electronic cigarettes</a>?</p><ul><li>The <strong>blu</strong> product range is the best on the market, not only because of its quality and control standards, but also because of our<a
target="_blank" title="blu cigs charging pack" href="http://wiki.blucigs.com/340/blu-cigs-packs/blu-cigs-pack-faq/" target="_blank"> industry-exclusive packs</a>. The pack charges your batteries on the go and allows you to carry your flavor cartridges together with your spare batteries in a high-quality plastic case that is similar in size to a normal cigarette pack.

title="Blu Cigs Johnson Creek" href="http://www.blucigs.com/johnson-creek" target="_blank">Johnson Creek Smoke Juice</a>.</li></ul><p><strong>Here are some other reasons:</strong></p><ul><li><strong>blu</strong> liquid is made in the U.S. using U.S. made ingredients; they are not made in China like other brands</li><li><strong>blu</strong> has strict quality control standards; we maintain an independent quality control organization that inspects product lines at all facilities daily</li></ul><p>5. Why is the light on the end of the cigarette blue?</p><ul><li>The tip of <strong>blu</strong> is blue in color to alleviate any concerns people may have that you are smoking a real cigarette in areas where you typically cannot smoke traditional cigarettes. The blue light lets them know you are not smoking a cigarette.</li></ul><p>6. Can I really smoke blu anywhere?</p><ul><li><strong>blu</strong> is not a traditional cigarette and does not burn tobacco, so it can be smoked in bars, restaurants, planes(most international and private) and offices and other places where normal smoking bans are in effect. <strong>blu</strong> produces an odorless vapor that disappears in several seconds, unlike cigarette smoke.

class="wp-caption-text">Johnson Creek with Blu Cigs</p></div><h3></h3><h3><strong>Why does Johnson Creek refer to their product as Smoke Juice where as the rest of the industry refers to it as e-liquid?</strong></h3><p>We call it Smoke juice because we want to distinguish our product from all of the other e-liquids that are produced that do not use the same quality ingredients and the same quality procedures as Johnson Creek does.</p><h3><strong>How does Johnson Creek control the nicotine percentages?</strong></h3><p>All of our production is controlled by cGMP standards. Johnson Creek’s Executive Vice President of Product Development carefully calculates every batch and then their Senior R&amp;D Chemist verifies those calculations before sending the mix sheets to the lab for production. Once in the lab, their Lab Manager measures out and records all ingredients. Each of those measurements is then verified and signed by a second Lab Technician. The batches are then periodically tested with a GC-FID or GC-MS machine to verify accurate nicotine levels. Our test results show our nicotine levels are consistently within a 99.3% to 100.7% range.</p><h3><strong>Besides mix sheets and COAs, how does Johnson Creek ensure quality?</strong></h3><p>Johnson Creek follows cGMPs (current Good Manufacturing Practices), and SOPs (Standard Operating Practices). They also utilize a HACCP (Hazard Analysis Critical Control Point) program that includes full traceability and a recall program. They have both a Quality Manual and an Operations Manual that details the procedures.</p><h3><strong>Do you ever use flavor elements that may trigger allergic reactions? Things like oils from tree nuts, shellfish, etc.</strong></h3><p>Since there are literally thousands and thousands of things people are allergic to it is nearly impossible to create a consumable product that is free of every single allergen. With that said we do take allergens very seriously and assure our products are free of the most common types. For example, once we learned a small portion of our customer base had a slight allergic reaction to Propylene Glycol (PG), an entire line of 100% PG-free smoke juice was created for <a
target="_blank" title="Blu Electronic cigarettes" href="http://www.blucigs.com" target="_blank">blu electronic cigarettes</a>.</p><h3><strong>Are there any potential side effects from ingredients contained in the carts?</strong></h3><p>All ingredients we use in the manufacturing of our smoke juices are “generally regarded as safe” as defined by the USP (United States Pharmacopeia), GRAS (Generally Regarded As Safe for human consumption), EAFUS (Everything Added to Food in the United States), or the FDA.  Nicotine is the only exception. Nicotine is the only ingredient that requires a warning, as it is a known addictive substance.</p><h3><strong>Why do some flavors produce more vapor or last longer than others?</strong></h3><p>All of the flavors Johnson Creek <a
target="_blank" title="Blu Cigs Store" href="http://www.blucigs.com/store" target="_blank">produces for blu</a> are Vegetable Glycerin based which in itself produces a greater amount of vapor compared to a Propylene Glycol based product.</p><h3><strong>Why does Java Jolt seem thick and produce less vapor?</strong></h3><p>In order to achieve a strong tasting coffee for <a
target="_blank" title="Blu Electronic Cigarette Cartridges" href="http://www.blucigs.com/store/cartridges" target="_blank">Java Jolt</a>, we opted to use ingredients that maximized flavor but in turn had a very thick consistency and limited vapor production. The decision was made to keep the flavor strong at the expense of some minor vapor production.</p><h3><strong>How does using Vegetable Based Glycerin compare to Propylene Glycol in terms of vapor and longevity?</strong></h3><p><strong> </strong>VG will produce a thicker, denser vapor, which will hang in the air longer, but the longevity of carts filled with the same amount of Smoke Juice should be the same whether filled with PG or VG.</p><h3><strong>When crafting a new flavor, what is the process like? Where do you start?</strong></h3><p>Once Johnson Creek finds something that they think will appeal to a wide range of e-smokers, they scour America to get dozens of samples of each and every ingredient. Sometimes the ingredients come from flavoring companies, sometimes from actual raw materials. Before they can even start the fun part of creating a recipe they must first confirm the ingredients are soluble, stay blended with other ingredients and have a low enough flash point that they will survive the atomizer and still provide strong flavor. By process of elimination, this essentially narrows the list down.</p><p>Once they have a list of ingredients that survived the testing gauntlet, then the fun begins. Based on each ingredient’s strength, as well as past experience, they create an initial recipe using the levels they think will mesh well and compliment the multitude of other flavors in the recipe. Once blended in a zero nicotine base we get to sample the recipe for the first time. They first smell then taste the raw liquid and then load up a <a
target="_blank" title="Blu Cigs Cartridges" href="http://www.blucigs.com/store/cartridges" target="_blank">cartomizer</a> and give it a vape. Based on the taste, either adjustments are made or they proceed to make a low nicotine version for testing by in-house vapers. After the staff takes at least a full day to independently vape each sample, each person is interviewed in private so their feedback is not skewed by other opinions. Based on the collective feedback, multiple revisions are made until we have a final product that meets the high blu standards.</p><h3><strong>Is it true that Johnson Creek was the first company in America to make smoke juice/e-liquid?</strong></h3><p>Yes, in 2007, they began work on what would become their original formulas and then went on to found Johnson Creek Enterprises, LLC. JCE became the first company in America to make smoke juice / e-liquid from scratch.</p><h3><strong>Is it true that Johnson Creek was the first company in the world to create non-PG smoke juice?</strong></h3><p>Yes it is. JCE was the first company in the world to create a smoke juice / e-liquid completely devoid of propylene glycol (PG). Today, though some companies incorrectly market what they call “PG-free.” What many of them may not realize is that the vast majority of the flavorings themselves are PG-based. However, you can be completely certain that your blu smoke juice is 100% PG-free.</p><p><strong><a

In the past, smoking at a bar or club was as common as ordering another round, but the spate of regulations and laws banning smoking in licensed establishments in recent years is changing the landscape. In the 27 states and numerous localities where smoking is banned in bars, clubs and restaurants, operators are scrambling to figure out how to keep smoking patrons on the premises while remaining in compliance as well as finding ways to supplement lost revenues as a result of the new rules.</p><h3></h3><h3>E-Cigarettes around town</h3><div

class="wp-caption-text">Blu Cigs in Nightclub and Bar Magazine</p></div></div><p>&nbsp;</p><p>That’s where <a
target="_blank" title="Blu Electronic Cigarettes" href="http://www.blucigs.com/store" target="_blank">electronic cigarettes</a> come into play. Operators now can offer smokers — and curious non-smokers — a healthier, smoke-free alternative to regular cigarettes, keeping them in bars and clubs longer and spending more. Additionally, in places where smoking is permitted, e-cigarettes can help owners assuage guests who might not return if they’re constantly engulfed in cigarette smoke.</p><p>E-cigarettes are taking hold around the country, thanks to word-of-mouth marketing coupled with the promise of large profit margins and generally happier clientele. The bottom line is that including e-cigarettes among the offerings at your bar or club will have you seeing through the smoke to limitless profit potential.</p><p><strong>Light One Up</strong></p><p><strong></strong><br
/> <strong>E-cigarettes</strong> typically consist of an atomizer, a nicotine cartridge, a battery and a light-emitting diode (LED) that mimics the lit tip of a real cigarette; <a
target="_blank" title="Blu Disposable Electronic Cigarettes " href="http://www.blucigs.com/disposables" target="_blank">disposable e-cigarettes</a>, which are sold at bars and clubs, come in menthol and tobacco flavors. The atomizer activates when the cigarette is inhaled, creating a smoke-like yet odorless vapor that contains no tobacco. Each <a
target="_blank" title="Blu Disposable Electronic Cigarettes" href="http://www.blucigs.com/disposables" target="_blank">disposable e-cigarette</a> is equal to about two packs of cigarettes or approximately 400 puffs.</p><p>Most e-cigarette companies carry liability insurance, and executives make sure their companies are in full compliance with tobacco laws. (Even though e-cigarettes contain no tobacco, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration announced earlier this year that the devices would be regulated like tobacco products.) These measures not only are necessary for government regulations, they also help demonstrate that e-cigarettes are a smart long-term investment, even if laws change in the future.</p><p>Visually, each e-cigarette company chooses its own particular aesthetic; some look like real cigarettes while others supply myriad color options. At Cosmos Café in Charlotte, N.C., General Manager Michael Exum introduced Blu Cig e-cigarettes to patrons, and although Exum keeps the product behind the bar, the e-cigarettes’ black exterior and blue LED make customers stand out in a crowd. The e-cigarettes’ cool look is one reason smokers and non-smokers are lining up to make a purchase at Cosmos.</p><p>“It adds an additional aspect to someone’s evening to try something they’ve never tried before. And, it will curb their appetite to have a real cigarette,” Exum remarks.</p><p>One thing remains true: The <a
target="_blank" title="Blu Electronic Cigarettes" href="http://www.blucigs.com/store" target="_blank">e-cigarette</a> is a conversation-starter — an intriguing <a
target="_blank" title="Blu Electronic Cigarettes" href="http://www.blucigs.com/store" target="_blank">accessory</a> that has customers doing the legwork through their own word-of-mouth marketing.</p><p>“It just takes one customer smoking one, and people ask questions,” notes Ted McCrary, general manager of Pensacola, Fla., nightclub Emerald City. McCrary is in a unique position because Florida allows smoking in stand-alone bars or clubs that make no more than 10% of their revenue from food sales. Even though smoking is allowed, McCrary still sells Finiti e-cigarettes. It’s “the notion of smoking,” that’s attractive, he says. “I think they’re going to become more popular in time, and I think, at some point, we might not have the luxury of smoking in a nightclub.”</p><p><strong>Smart Social Strategies</strong><br
/> McCrary has a leg up on his competitors who don’t offer any smoking alternatives at their bars or clubs, and the easiest way for him to persuade new guests to try Finiti e-cigs is through word-of-mouth marketing.</p><p>“The very best thing is when someone has one around the bar. Everyone asks where they got [the e-cigarette], and that’s the absolute best thing as far as advertising,” he says.</p><p>Garrett Henderson, owner of Marz Bar &amp; Grille in Milford, N.J., uses a scrolling LED screen to spark guest curiosity about the True Vapor Krave 300 and 505 e-cigarettes he sells, but he also knows his demographic.</p><p>“I sell them to people who smoke a pack of cigarettes a month — someone who has a cigarette with a drink. That’s my demographic. The heavy smoker is not going to buy this,” he explains.</p><p>Initially, Henderson says the novelty of the e-cigarette is what attracted customers. The eye-catching packaging and non-smelling vapor piqued interest.</p><p>“At first, you have to give them away a little bit. I would give them to the bartenders, and I would walk around with one,” he says. It wasn’t long before he was able to get patrons talking about and purchasing their own disposable e-cigarettes. His endorsement is enough to sell about 12 to 15 e-cigarettes on a busy weekend night. What’s more, guests specifically go to Marz Bar to buy them again and again.</p><p><strong>Money Matters</strong><br
/> Located in a blue-collar town, Marz Bar gains value by selling <a
target="_blank" title="Blu Electronic Cigarettes" href="http://electronic cigarettes " target="_blank">e-cigarettes</a>. Patrons who smoke the $12 e-cigarettes project an air of affluence. “It fits together in our VIP area,” Henderson says, noting that the bar makes between $6 and $6.50 on each purchase.</p><p>Exum hopes to capitalize on potential e-cigarette revenue at Cosmos, but he admits there isn’t a steady flow of profits: “On a Saturday, we many not sell a single one, or we may sell 10.” He notices, however, that people who are puffing on an e-cigarette are staying at the bar longer. “The person next to an [e-cigarette smoker] will pick one up because of it.”</p><p>“We did a study, and we found that when people stayed inside to smoke, they were ordering 1.4 more drinks than they would have if they had been going outside,” explains <a
target="_blank" title="Blu Electronic Cigarettes" href="http://www.blucigs.com" target="_blank">Blu Cigs</a> President Jason Healey. “We found in the bars that we work with, they experience a solid increase in general sales because people aren’t going outside as much. That’s always positive.”</p><p>At Emerald City, McCrary nets a lucrative 30 to 35% profit margin on e-cigarettes, which are sold for $10 each. Additionally, guests smoking e-cigarettes hang out at the bar longer, buying more drinks. Emerald City has four bars, but McCrary only displays Finiti e-cigarettes at the two toward the front of the club because “people hang out and sit around those two bars opposed to the dance floor.”</p><p>Operators have a penchant for making money, and customers will spend more money if they’re spending more time inside the venue. “The more you drink, the more you smoke. From a profit standpoint, it makes a lot of sense,” explains Shelli Knight, brand manager of Finiti e-cigarettes.</p><p><strong>Guest Benefits</strong><br
/> The biggest problem keeping <a
target="_blank" title="Blu Electronic Cigarettes" href="http://www.blucigs.com/store" target="_blank">e-cigarettes</a> from full-on market dominance is uneducated guests but that can be overcome as more people begin to understand the e-cigarette concept. Louis Rossi, president of Worldwide Distributing, LLC, which sells Clayton e-cigarettes, explains that “when you look at all the factors involved — the bar owners keeping customers happier and in seats instead of outside smoking — it’s just a better atmosphere for patrons. Customers use them more and more. It’s a fantastic alternative.”</p><p>In fact, the benefits of selling <a
target="_blank" title="Blu Electronic Cigarettes" href="http://www.blucigs.com/store" target="_blank">e-cigarettes</a> at bars and clubs don’t just make smokers happy, they create a welcome environment for all types of clientele.</p><p>“It’s just the courtesy to other people, especially on a crowded night,” McCrary explains. “A lot of people feel the pressure from their group of friends. They like the idea of smoking something that doesn’t bother anyone else. Some people are opting [for them] as a courtesy to other people.”</p><p>Because there is no odor or lingering smoke, guests are more apt to try e-cigarettes so they can hang around their non-smoking friends, contributing to a friendlier environment and a thriving atmosphere. “You’re not just selling a product to bars and nightclubs, you’re selling a solution to a problem,” Rossi explains.</p><p>A problem-solving device that makes your operation money certainly is rare in the fickle bar and nightclub business. Not to mention, e-cigarettes can help your bar or club gain notoriety in your area. Henderson sees this firsthand. “When you’re in a club environment with music going, with videos going, [e-cigarettes] just add to it. As you walk around and are puffing on it — between the flavor and how long it lasts and the light — it’s cool.” <strong>NCB</strong></p><p>Article from <a

target="_blank" href="http://www.blucigs.com/">blu Cigs</a> is raising the bar once again, on track to significantly expand its retail channels heading into 2012. In the past four months alone, blu has gone from selling solely online to making its products available at over 10,000 retail locations nationwide &#8211; from <a
target="_blank" href="http://www.sheetz.com/main/index.cfm">Sheetz</a>, <a
target="_blank" href="http://www.heb.com/home/home.jsp%3bjsessionid=2141F157178242E77AD44A1DB560196B.O5sTrpuKaI8pl2H-pR4b-tTrXeM2">H.E.B.</a>, and <a
target="_blank" href="http://www.meijer.com/">Meijer</a>, at <a
target="_blank" href="http://www.blucigs.com/store-locator/">bars and independent stores</a>, and major drugstore chains across the country.</p><p>Since its launch only three years ago, the blu brand has distinguished itself from the rash of new start-ups in the e-cig space, becoming the standard by which consumers and retailers measure product quality and consumer satisfaction. Still the only e-cig company whose ingredients are 100% made in the USA, blu  set a new standard for e-cigs in 2011 with the launch of its Smart Pack – which capitalized on the social aspect of smoking and the general public’s open and widespread adoption of social media as the new norm of communication. While e-cig users and press continue to buzz about the Smart Pack, demand has steadily grown for blu’s flagship products including its rechargeable starter packs, cartridges in varying flavors and levels of nicotine, and disposable e-cig,. As a result, online sales are up 70% from last year, demonstrating that more consumers choose blu..</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>“It’s exciting to see such great brand recognition, and we are responding to that growing demand by offering even more purchasing options for both our new, and longtime customers,” commented Jason Healy, President of blu Cigs. “At the same time, as the only company using USA-made smoke juice, we have always been diligent about the quality of our product, so we are incredibly selective about the retailers we choose – ensuring they adhere to the same standards of quality, customer support and satisfaction so integral to our brand.”</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>blu’s skyrocketing nationwide brand recognition is no accident or anomaly, and is a direct result of a full advertising and promotional portfolio across TV, print, and online media – including <em>USA Today, OK! Magazine, Esquire, Maxim</em>, and more – not to mention high profile events such as the MTV Music Awards and Country Music Awards. blu has been featured by <em>The New York Times</em> and <em>FastCompany</em>, as well as <em>WIRED</em>, <em>TechCrunch</em>, <em>FOX</em> and <em>NBC News</em>. 2012 will see blu continuing to expand its presence throughout national mainstream media and events to further connect with, inform, and grow its customer base.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Retailers, from pharmacies and grocers to convenience stores, have shown heightened interest in working with blu, based on its brand recognition and product quality, as much as the company’s commitment to driving consumers to retail sales locations. In fact, blu’s store locator – created to help transition more than 350,000 faithful customers from online to retail sales – sees over 9,000 visits per day. This, along with blu’s attractive Point-of-Sale (POS) displays, has helped lead another 6,000 retail locations to commit to carrying blu Cigs’ array of products in January 2012, with expanded international shipping soon to follow.
