Can I use these on my Riva?

IKV 510 Cartomizer Platinum STD 2.5Ω SS

It says they're recommended for 4.2 to 5V. Is that what my Riva is? I'm not sure how many Volts the Riva batteries are.

Also, I received an email saying they are in stock, but the website indicates they are still out of stock?

Your Riva is a 3.7 volt PV. Those would work but probably be kind of a cool vape. I think I would go with these instead. IKV 510 Platinum LR 2.0Ω
Sometimes the emails get to you early and somethings sell out fast. Don't know for sure. The 2.0 Ohm are in stock.

IKV has great carto's. Not sure about the stock issue though. However, you can definitely use them on a Riva. I've had several Riva's and I had no issues using carto's that were 2.0ohm to 3.0ohm. From my understanding, Riva's are true 3.7volt devices, compared to eGo's, which are 3.2-3.4. A full charge on the Riva with that carto should provide a decent pull, and then performance would drop as the battery life decreases. Hope that helps a bit. Good luck.

Edit: Exactly what 5Card said

Thanks for the quick responses. I have the IKV Gold 510 Cartomizer 2.5Ω (recommended for 3.4 to 4.8V) now and love them. I have only a couple left and while preparing to reorder, I read some positive reviews about the Platinum Cartomizers and thought I would try them. I was a bit hesitant to order a low resistance, since LRs seem to drain my batteries rapidly. I'm on the waiting list for those also. Maybe I'll wait until the golds are back in stock. Hmmm. Can't decide.

2.0 Ohm isn't that bad for an LR Carto. It's when you get down to 1.8 or 1.5 Ohm that the battery suffers dearly. But you are right about LRs causing more stress on them. I have used the 2.5 Ohm on 3.7 volts without any problems. I didn't mean to scare you away from them.

Thanks Scarstud. I was apprehensive, but I ordered several anyway. I trust the Ikenvape experts. I've been vaping since February of last year, but I'm in a rut and need to start trying new andimproved products. I have 2 Buzz Pros and a Reo mini, so I have other equipment to use these on. However, for some reason, it's always easier to fall back upon my Rivas.

I ordered the recommended 2.0 LRs, rather than the 2.5.
