CASAA: First Call to Action for FDA Proposed Regulations ...

Will the FDA Allow an Extension of Their Comment Period for Their Proposed Regulations on Ecigs?

The FDA released their 241-page proposal on May 8th and are expecting consumers to analyze it and respond to it within 75 days. The FDA has also posed nearly 100 requests for information about THR products.

Given the length of time FDA has taken to release the proposed regulations, the massive amount of information FDA is requesting, the length of the document itself, and the devastating impact these regulations will have on a product that is estimated to be approximately 99% less hazardous than combustibles, the 75-day comment period is grossly inadequate. 

CASAA has requested in their first Call to Action for consumers to request a 105-day extension of the comment period, requesting a total of 180 days to make comments. 

The question is will the FDA allow an extension? We, at Bloog, feel that they will if enough consumers request it. Thus, Bloog Electronic Cigarettes encourages all of its consumers to help make a difference and send a respectful comment to the FDA today requesting the extension. In the link below, CASAA has prepared a suggested letter that you can edit to accurately reflect your views and circumstances along with instructions on how to file the comment.

Bloog E-Cigarettes Announces the Vesta900, Bloog's First Variable Voltage Electronic Cigarette

An ecig with 900mAh and a range from 3.2 to 4.8 volts

Bloog Ecigarettes announced today the launch of their first Variable Voltage Electronic Cigarette. At 900mAh, this is our biggest battery to date. 

Friends enjoying the Classic KR808
Electronic cigarettes have come a long way since the early days of 2008 when we first opened. Back then, the only choice was to have either a Disposable Ecig or a KR808, or "stick" style ecigarette. And although Bloog is still known today as the benchmark for KR808's, our customers have been asking us for more options as they mature as vapers. 

The Bloog 650H2 pictured on the left, and the 650 on the right
By having an expanded product range, a beginner can start with our Classic KR808 then move onto an intermediate ecig, like our 650 series. We offer two styles the 650, and the 650H2. The difference is the threading. The 650 gives you a bigger battery with a refillable clearomizer. You can fill the clearomizer with eliquid, (or ejuice), and have it last longer than a smaller ecigarette.  

From there, they have the option on moving to an advanced model, like the Vesta900. 
The Vesta900 Starter Kit shown in Red. Also available in Blue and Stainless steel.

What makes it so special? 

It all comes down to the eliquid and how it is heated. A typical electronic cigarette generates vapor by heating an atomizing device, normally containing a heater coil in a clearomizer. This heat, combined with the draw from the user, cause the fluid to be atomized into vapor that is then inhaled. The hotter the coil gets, the more vapor is produced. 
The Vesta900 Clearomizer options

Every eliquid has its own "sweet spot," meaning the temperature that it should be vaped for the best vapor production, flavor and throat hit. With a variable voltage range of 3.2 to 4.8 volts, our Vesta900 ecig allows you to find and enjoy that "sweet spot" for every flavor eliquid. Simply twist the bottom of the battery to adjust the voltage. 

We have found the optimal settings for our eliquids are just under 4.0. And with 900mAh, your battery will last a long time between charges. In most cases 1-2 days.

What comes in a Kit?

The Vest900 Variable Voltage ecigarette comes in three different colors: Red, Blue, and Stainless Steel. With the kit, you receive a matching 1.5ml clearomizer, USB Charger, and a Soft Covered Carry Case. The kit costs $39.99 online at www.bloog.com.
 
For a limited time, you can purchase a 30ml bottle of Bloog eliquid for only $6 more when you buy the Vesta900 kit.

NJoy Ecigarettes Will Run Super Bowl Ad for Second Year in a Row



For the second year in a row, NJoy will be running commercials during the Super Bowl. NJoy and other electronic cigarette companies, such as Blu and Logic, are taking advantage of the stalled regulation when it comes to advertising ecigs. Whether it is on the radio, or on TV, ecigarettes are being advertised more and more. That is not necessarily a bad thing. In fact, I think advertising ecigarettes is a good thing- even for a small company like Bloog.

3 Reasons Why the E-Cigarette Industry Needs Pharmaceutical E-Liquids Produced in the United States- Right Now




The Top 3 Reasons Why the E-Cigarette Industry 
Needs Pharmaceutical E-Liquids Produced in the United States - Right Now

(There are many more, but we chose the top three....)

With FDA regulation looming, it seems that there is a video or news post every other day condemning the e-cigarette industry. Experts criticize the electronic cigarette brands for glamorizing e-cigarettes and question what ingredients are contained in e-liquids, or e-juice, as some people call it. In this article, we will discuss the e-liquids. The e-liquid, they say, is a mystery. Is it justified or fair? Maybe, maybe not. One thing is for sure, the industry needs a credible source for producing and then documenting what is in their e-liquids.  Enter Bloog Viquid.

8 Steps from E-Liquid to Viquid

Not just E-liquid - It's Viquid™

8 steps for an E-Liquid to Become a Viquid



Most eCig liquids are either made in China with substandard ingredients and little or no testing, or in cottage industries here in the US by people with minimal or no experience in pharmaceutical production. In fact, the media has crushed the e-cigarette industry, stating that no one knows what is in the E-Liquid they are vaping....until now.
