can't wait for my riva to get here

[bootninja]

I got my 702 five days ago and for the first few days, I absolutely loved it. But constantly swapping/charging batteries started getting old quickly so I posted on here and on advice purchased a riva from liberty flights last night.

Today I'm having the problem that I expend one battery before the 2nd has finished charging. I don't know if I'm vaping more now or if I've degraded the batteries through constant use and charging. Surely a battery should last more than five days, right?

I'd hate to have the same problem with the Riva because I'm doing something wrong. Any suggestions?

I'm not familiar with the 702, I use one PV with a 210mah battery and one with a 180mah and they definitely charge in plenty of time for me. I'm not vaping constantly though (more like 1/3 or 1/4 of the time). I use USB to AC adaptors (I don;t try to charge off a PC)

I use these with the USB charging cables for standard 3.7v-ish batteries (1/2 amp each to charge) or for a PT (1 amp) while charging 2 batteries (for a total of 2amp which is what it offers)

Not sure if you can use it with Riva/Ego batteries charging cables.

I don't think you'll have that issue with the Riva. I'm not as heavy of a user as some but I was getting 2 days or more between charges with the Riva. Most report 6-8 hours or more of heavy vaping. Riva also has extended MAH batteries you can purchase if you find the 750mah that comes in the kit isn't enough. I doubt that'll happen though.

I think you'll be pleasantly surprised with your new purchase. It will be quite an upgrade in battery life!! Plus, the Riva comes with a fast charger. The batteries will charge in 2-2.5 hrs. It would be nearly impossible to drain the one that you are using in that length of time. Good luck and great choice on your next set up.

You will be just fine with your Riva, your problem now is with the product your using not the way you are using it. So not to worry you will love your Riva.

thanks for the reassurance guys

I ordered it at about 3 a.m. monday morning, but it hasn't shipped yet. hopefully they just have a weekend backlog over at liberty flights and it'll go out this morning.

Dammit I don't wanna wait. ;-)

Welcome to the "stalking the mailman" club. Seems to be quite a few of us.

The Riva will show you what vaping can be. Congrats on your choice and welcome!

My first PV was a Riva. I got it way way back in the olden days. I think it was December 31, 2010. I still use it today. I love it!!!! The battery lasts me the whole day with ease and I vape quite often. I know it's not for everybody, BUT I found that a drip-tip is the way to go.

Good upgrade from the 702. Once you join ECF the mailman becomes a significant part of your life

actually, I joke that my mailman is stalking me. I've had the same mailman for over 10 years and three address changes. He keeps telling me that one of these days we need to go play a round of golf.

when did you order yours?

 

[trouble2k]

Just a heads up...Liberty Flights is a great supplier, but sometimes it takes them an extra day to get orders out for shipping. I've only had one order where is was shipped the same day.

How many times have you checked the status of your order?

Got my Riva from LF yesterday, been smiling every since. Love this thing. I would have hugged the mailman if I had seen him drop it off. Probably better for both of us that I was busy when he came.

I made my order with LF on New Years Eve. Considering there was a holiday and a weekend in there, I was very pleased when it was shipped on Jan. 3 and arrived on Jan. 6. Been very happy with the purchase and the service. I upgraded from a standard 510. I did have a couple of mega batts, but even with that I was constantly charging. Don't have that problem with the Riva. One battery last me a whole day of heavy vaping. I think you will be pleased as well.
