EM Riva vapor production (is it the LR atty?)

[Kosmarnik]

I've seen vids of the Riva 901, and it performs wonderfully.
Plumes of vapor. It just spits out enormous amounts of vapor.

Now, it makes no sense to me that Rivas batter should perform better than a mod with a 14500 or 18650, so I guess it's the atty.

Would you learned folks please drop in your $0.02?

Also, what 901 atty would you recommend? I've been using TW exclusively for a year and they're not bad. But thinking of switching to EM 901/EM 901 LR after I saw the Riva performance.
What do you say?

I've used SLB LR attys and like them. Don't be fooled by those vids. they usually don't tell you what pg/vg mix they are using. If it's 100%vg you'll get plumes of vapor.

That's a very good point. People spewing vapor like a locomotive are generally using a high VG mix.

And I whole-heartedly recommend EM LR atty's. Hands down best made LR's out there.

GUISE THANK YOU!
(Caps lock yeahs!)

Honestly, never thought of VG, I must be stupid or something XD
But honestly, it's hard to compare the vids. Different cameras/resultion/light setups/e-liquid/lung-capacity. Argh.

So, I guess I'll go with EM 901 LR instead of Riva.

Since I took up vaping (~18months), this whole field EXPLODED. There's just so much on the market right now, so many vids, forums overflowing, etc.
I tired to get up to speed by the usual: search, read, research. It's just too much to go through in a few days, and I've been totally out of it (buying a 100 atty+batty will do that).
