I quit smoking with a Vuse Vibe, and have been using the product since October 2017. The reason I quit cigarettes, was because of the price, nearly 8$ a day.

The Vuse Vibe was dependable, cheap, and durable. One refill pack of 2 tanks would last me about 4 days. Costing 10$ a refill, this amounted to roughly 3$ a day on my nicotine habit. With the recall, due to risk of explosion of power units, they have vanished everywhere.

After calling customer service, they told me that I was basically out of luck and try their other products. I invested 20$ in their smaller Vuse Vape Pen thing resembling a cigarette. What a piece of junk. The battery doesn't last 2 hours, and one refill doesn't get me through the day.

A 2 pack refill costs about 8$, bring my nicotine habit back to same price as cigarettes. With the unreliable battery, this thing is basically useless to me. I am about ready to switch back to cigarettes or find a new brand of Vape. It was just so convienant, being able to purchase from the Gas Station I work.

Plus I was always recommending it to people. I planned on not even sending the power units back, and continue using them until I discovered I cannot buy refills anymore. I own three power units, all functional, and none of them, even get remotely warm. Customer service said that 10 people complained, 10!

And nobody has even died, been severly harmed, or even reported one exploding. But for the sake of those 10 *** the whole Vuse Vibe and refills are all locked for sale. We know the risks of smoking cigarettes, I know the risk of the Vuse Vibe exploding, but I do not care. I feel as a consumer it is my choice to risk my own health.

Plus I have the sense to know when it is getting "too hot," although it never has. Im starting to feel it is a conspiracy to make more money, as the Vuse Vibe was probably losing them money. As I said, 3$ a day, and I am a heavy vapor. I know people who spend more on Fountain Pops in a day, than I did for nicotine.

I feel as a loyal, dedicated customer, who also used to promote your products every opportunity, I am being *** over.

They tell me a replacement will be made soon, but my guess is with a *** battery that doesn't last long. Probably will be *** after 10 charges, forcing me to purchase a new battery as often as I purchase refills.

Reason of review: Damaged or defective.

I have been feeling the exact same thing! The VUSE VIBE was removed from the market not because of a dangerous battery but because of poor sales of other invested product lines.

The VUSE SOLO was the first product I tried. This product was horrible you had 1 out of 5 SOLO refills that were defective. You had to call the hotline and wait 2 months for a replacement coupon!! The refills are regulated the same way as a printer ink cartridge.

It will shut off after a certain number of puffs. 175-180 puffs to be exact. After disassembling the depleted SOLO refills for inspection, I noticed that there was a considerable amount of juice left behind. Enough that could actually be squeezed out and fill up a separate container!

The puff count could have gone 200 or maybe more! I felt this was a rip off and about that time here came VUSE VIBE. I was already hooked on the Nectar flavor previously the Crema flavor on the SOLO before that. I moved on to the VIBE since the Nectar flavor was available and noticed in 2 weeks I was saving a HEAP of money!

After using VIBE for well over a year the Ciro came out. I tried it, it tasted good, but it was more expensive. Sure you got 3 refills instead of 2 but that's because the nicotine level was reduced. That's how and why the CIRO tastes better!

In return you blow through all 3 refills in less than two days. You spend more money! Here is the conspiracy. Sales numbers were seriously down for the SOLO series as it was a failure and plagued with replacement coupon calls, Sales numbers were not as good as expected for the CIRO series.

The VIBE was simply a better product and the people knew it.

That is why the sales for the CIRO never took off. VUSE developed this faulty battery SCAM to force their consumers to buy their other failed devices and to remove the VIBE competition from their own market effectively without consumer backlash while playing the safety card.

Same. Quit smoking with vuse vibe and I'm so disappointed in the CIRO because it only last half a day for 1 cartridge and cosy more than the vibe.

Vibe has 1.3 more mL And cost LESS. And the SOLO is worse..

It would shoot juice in my mouth. I'm really not sure what to do at this point.

Yep. Too cheap and now you can *** and refill on your own. They want away from the Vibe as soon as possible.
