901 to 510/should I switch?

[frisco]

I started out with the KR808 using cartomizers. When I wanted to move up it seemed to make sense to get the Riva 901 so I could use the cartomizers also. I've been happy with these and am now ready to add some backups.

I'm just not sure if I should try to make the switch to 501 because is seems more universal and easier to get replacement parts, or just stay with what I have. Is there any difference besides the threading?

I would appreciate any advice from you veterans. I still consider myself very much a beginner after only 2 mths.

Thanks

I think that 901's and 510's are just so different.
My preference is a 901 atty because I like the slightly stiffer draw - I get a more satisfying TH... and I am better at keeping 901's going - I am a 510 killer ;-)
I also like that I can drop my 901's in grain alcohol for a week and not kill them...

With that said, 510's seem to be much more popular... they seem to provide an easier draw... the are supposed to give more vapor...

I have a lot of both reg and LR and I just prefer 901's...

I think there is definitely room for both atties in your collection...

I use a 901 on my eGos and on my Buzz.

Why not purchase a 901 to 510 adaptor with a 510 atty and try the 510 for a lot less money until you are sure you like it?

What I'm thinking is that the Riva I have was maybe a 510 that they just put a 901 adapter on. I got it from Eastmall and it is the same thing as the elegant from Cigeasy. I have both and they are interchangeable.

Do you know if I'm wrong? Would it be crazy to go 510-901-510?
