Battery Questions...

[Superbals]

Ok so for some reason im having major problems with one of my Riva batteries....its not charging and some of my attys won't screw in all the way....What im wondering is if i can use my Riva charger on a Ego battery or maybe even a Hello 016??? I only know of one place to get the riva battery thats not in China

I've used my Riva charger on an eGo. They're basically the same. As far as finding Riva batteries in the US there's Riva Batteries
and Riva Manual Battery 750 mAH (Platinum) [VJB008] - $19.95 : VaporJunction, E-Cigarette Supply
and https://vaporsetc.com/vapordefaultdetail.asp?detailid=PA1057&detname=Riva Battery Titanium
and AltSmoke.com | Personal Vaporizers | Electronic Cigarette | Ecigs
and Electronic Cigarette - Starter Kits - Riva 510
Just to name a few.

Nice....tyvm....Do you know about the Hello 016 if that would work?? That's an even LONGER battery which would be very nice

Not sure about the 016. It's supposed to fit a 510 charger (same as Riva) but I haven't tried it first hand. Go to MadVapes :: Support Ticket System and ask Mark. They're the first guys I've seen selling the 016. I'm sure they can tell you.

i noticed that juice gets on the contact of the charger and will keep it from charging, try to clean it out real real good, now i always clean out the batt be4 i screw it in.

Did try that but i've also noticed when trying to screw attys into it they're not catching. It feels like it catches fine on the chargery however so im wondering if something is maybe wrong with the threading or something

And Mistinthewoods thanks for the info i'll definetely ask them about it!

That's true! I've learned to wipe down the contacts with a tissue before I screw my batts to the charger. Good call Chalie.

Liberty Flights has Riva chargers for less than $8.00. I might order a few.

When you screw them in do you do it like real quick or do you go nice and slow, question being is the threads are not like ones on screws, i noticed that the threads on these are soft and delicate(spelling) but just be sure to be real easy with them.

I screw it in about medium speed i think not too fast not too slow....i got one battery that still works but thats wifeys lol

 

[Superbals]

Well if anyones wondering im being told the Riva charger will also work on the Hello 016 which is 1300mah They're saying they don't recommend using LR attys with it however....does it run at a different voltage or something?? Anyone happen to know?

As far as i know it is still labeled at 3.7 but not sure if its like the ego what said its 3.7 but more like a 3.2 or something like that, not sure if the 016 is also or not.
