I got a 510 automatic for free from a vendor when I ordered from their site. I gave it to my son, he likes it and says it works just fine. As has been suggested, try charging it again and make sure the carto is screwed on to the battery well.
Just got my first e cig and it's horrible...

After re-reading all the reply's and doing a little more research I'm leaning toward the riva or eGo, stronger lean toward the riva because it's a little cheaper.
I am also strongly considering the tank system. However I've read about burnt taste, clear liquid turning dark, atomizer requiring extra maintenance, leaking problems, and less flavor. I read all that but I also read everyone loves it despite the issues. So I'm kind of unclear on if I should go with the tank, atom/cart, or carto.
How many times can u re-use a tank cartridge?
How long will a tank atomizer last?
Another issue is LF is sold out of about every riva kit
Are these two about the same size?
Also, do both have LED's? based on pics it looks like the eGo does not, and I can not tell with the riva.

Have to go + 1 on the bloog there.. I tried all the rivas egos and such but could not come to terms with the size.. or the pressing of a button.
The mf gives a good cig experience and several of the MOD lovers like it alot... so no need to try and force yourself to get use to bigger, when its not nescessary.. Small pvs have come a very long way, and give a damn fine TH. With the egos i had to use a low resistace atty to get some umpf. Switching my carto back n forth on kr808 and ego, the kr8 wins hands down...
But one must try some diff things to know what works best, so the money saving maybe should be pushed back for a while, and just get big and small. Its allways best to have something as a backup anyway.. Think most people havent saved much the first couple of months.....

Lol. There are some that persisted through those ecigs and got the best they could out of them - blu's too and njoy stuff. Mostly they were a start though.
A few questions that may have been missed...

I know that some ecig automatics use a plunger type to activate on drawing on it,and some use the microphone effect.
The difference is one is sound or vibration activated and the plunger is not..I found the plunger will plugged up easier with ejuice and like a dummy I used a pin to see if I could unplug it,WRONG put a hole in plunger now useless..The sound activated has a decent draw,but when around loud noises it activated so that sucked..And now lesson learned I have and 808d vaporking manual..
I am pretty settled in with that..Also have a 510 3 pc..in which I like to, except for the dripping and refilling..its manual also..
Havent tried the cartomizers for joye 510 still curious about that..
The 808d carts can easily be refilled 4 or 5 times and the battery last about 90 to 120 minutes constantly vaping..I have the standard batteries for vaporing on the go and xl batteries for home..
Finally stay away from those trials freebys your asking for trouble...

Most people haven't experienced them but you hear more from the ones that do. I'd be yelling too if that were the case but it hasn't been for me. Check out these vids from Vicky at cignot:
YouTube - eGo-t wick adjustment
YouTube - How I clean my eGo-t atty... or... Sunday morning at Vicky's kitchen sink
That should give you an idea of the makeup and IF you have problems how to fix. You're better off starting with the B type attys in the kit, imo. No burn issues and for me no leaks so far. I haven't had to adjust wicks....

So I'm kind of unclear on if I should go with the tank, atom/cart, or carto.
If you get the eGo-t - you can always use any of the other attys/cartos available - many with 510 connections and if not there's the 510-901 adapter.
How many times can u re-use a tank cartridge?
These will last longer than any carto or any filler in a cartridge - they're very well built. The only possible replacement would be the cap - if you filled through the cap - most fill through the hole created by the spike from the atty.
How long will a tank atomizer last?
I have some that have lasted since December. I blew out a few of the LR attys and lost one regular atty. But with any atty/cartos - ymmv. I have 510 atomizers that are over a year old.
Also, do both have LED's? based on pics it looks like the eGo does not, and I can not tell with the riva.
The eGo-t batts have a 'blue/white' led under the button and the Rivas are blue. The eGo-t has an on/off switch by pressing the button 5 times quickly, then 5 times to bring it back on line.

I don't know anything about them, but my rule of thumb is: if they don't give me a street address, I don't buy from them.
I decided to try the simple route kent suggested. I order a 510-t atomizer and a pack of 510-t cartridges and 5ml of pg strawberry & 5ml of pg redbull eliquid all from LF. So I guess I will see how everything turns out once I get it in.
Thanks again guys, hope me and my wife are a little more pleased with this.

Generally a tight pull indicates that the atomizer has too much juice in it. The picture you linked was cartomizers it looks like so I am not sure about that. The other thing I can think of that you might want to try is to make sure that none of the air holes are blocked. Of course, it could just be a low quality item since they are disposable.
Keep in mind that the drag of an e-cig is not the same drag as an analog. Long and slow is the trick compared to a regular quick hit drag from an analog...
EDIT: When I started my post there wasn't 6 pages of replies lol... Sorry about this post when so many others said it much better than I did

I tried the tank system and I was not impressed with it. I went to the mod boxes. Also if you decide to buy anything from anywhere here is a Coupon CodeMaster List

i tried the tank system and was VERY disappointed. i have been vaping since 2008. found that most EVERY flavor was so muted i got no pleasure from vaping. the ONLY flavor that gave me a good "taste" was Tasty Vapor Atomic Cinnacide. and the tanks hold so little juice for a heavy vaper like me that i was having to fill way too much and the tank system also seems to suck up too much juice-my juice consumption went way up-more than doubled. and then there were leakage issues. i am so glad that the GO GO was created. no more headaches, no more leaking, no more muted flavors (of any kind), no more constantly rotating batteries to make sure i have a charged one on hand at all times, no more constant filling or topping off. the GO GO is incredible. well worth the 60 bucks.
oh not to mention my atomizer died after 2 weeks. i was used to the eGO and rotated between two attys and only had to buy new ones every 6 months or so...and i used an eGo for a LONG time (since they were created, until just recently when i bought the GO GO. i used an eGo with mega eGo cylindrical atomizers and mega eGo cylindrical cartridges. they satisfied me and had good success with them but my goodness the GO GO far exceeds the eGO in so many ways. there is NO going back now!

I am curious about that as well. Looks like an ego knock-off to me. Not that there is anything wrong with it being a knock-off, per se, but judging by the pictures they don't seem very different.
The Go Go gives great flavor and very nice vapor. It is larger than the Riva. The I-Go is also nice in that the battery lasts all day and the carto hold a lot of juice, not quite as much as the Go Go, but enough that I used mine for a day and 1/4 before the battery or juice ran out. I think the flavor may be a bit better on the Go Go, but I prefer the draw and size of the I-Go. The Go Go has a very airy draw and I thought it was a bit noisy which I didn't like. The I-Go is slightly larger than the Riva, I have to put them side by side to see the difference.
I went with a vapor king and the difference in juices can change your whole experience. If you don't like one = try another. The Vapor King is awesome with the right type of carto and juice!! I am too lazy to fool with atty.
so many reasons...please read all the posts on the GO GO threads.....it will explain it all. no doubt it is superior. i have been vaping since 2008....GO GO exceeds the rest
