EGO-W and Riva-T look identical. Are they?

I have seen pictures on the web of both of these, and they look like they have identical "ELiq" clearomizers in a metal sleeve with a flat rigid plastic mouthpiece and a screw-on pen clip cap.

Can anyone who has seen both models in person confirm or deny this? I will post a picture of my EGO-W. Wondering if parts can be swapped.

I haven't seen the ego-w but I have Riva-T's and the pictures look the same. Here is a good place to get the Riva-T for 4.99 ea without the screw on cap. He sells those seperate if you want them.RIVA-T TANK BLACK - $4.99 : CropDuster901 eCigs, eCigs, Vaporizers and Supplies He also has them in silver!
After looking at the w again I see you remove the carto from the sleeve and can be replaced. The Riva-T is not like that, the metal jacket with windows is permanently attached.

I ordered an eGo-W from ejuicemonkeys.com. It is sperate from the outside shell that the drip tip connects to. I also ordered a Riva-T from Nhaler.com This had both the clearomizer with tip and the pen cap for $8. Good call on the replacement parts, though, txtumbleweed. The outer shell on the Riva-T does not seperate from the clearomizer. Yet. Once I need to clean it a bit I will be running it through hot water and that may help loosen any glue being used. It vapes awesome.

By the way, an 801 drip tip has MOST DEFINITELY fixed the "juice in the mouth" problems I was having:
Whistle Tip Drip Tips

Love them.

If you want to buy replacement ego-W clearomizers in bulk, VaporHawk has the best price. $2.45 each when you order 20. Of course you wont get them for 4 to 6 weeks, with "free" slow boat from China shipping. BUT... that's ~40% of the going rate of $5.99.

I bought a 10 pack 3 months ago & they're still going strong. I don't vape really dark, or really sweet juices, and I think that contributes to their longevity. I keep most of them loaded (with different juices) and ready to vape depending on my mood.
