last questions before jumping.

[thehangdude]

I plan on ordering for my wife and myself sometime early tomorrow. I think I have decided on a RIVA 510 kit with 2.0 cartomizers, and a joyetech Mega Ego kit with the Atomizers and pre-filled cartridges. I will get a few sets of cartomizers (probably 1.8-2.5 ohm mix) and some cowboy juice (18mg with 70/30 PG/VG).

Will the parts interchange? Any suggestions? How much juice will I need? Am I missing anything. Should I get one auto and one manual battery?

BTW, great forum. nicest people here.

[Silversmyth]

yes parts will interchange
30ML will last maybe 1-2 weeks for you both depending on usage.
Would stick with manual batts also.

Yes all of the parts will be interchangeable, your selection of attys seems good and as for juice, you will probably vape 2-5 ml each per day.

 

[Silversmyth]

Also -I have tried LF's--Cappicino--RY4 and churchill (Winston)
All are not to bad since you are ordering from them anyway.
Just a thought

I may be wrong on this but from some of the threads I've read I believe the carts are not interchangeable between the two types of atomizers. The Mega atomizers use a different design than the standard 510.

Silversmyth: I will ease into flavoring. I'm sticking as close to Marlboro as I can. I'm thinking the "red" and the "usa" mix will come closest.

 

[Silversmyth]

Yes the carts will only fit the atty they came with .
Mega's are much larger dia.
Cartomizers will fit either as long as 510.

I think you are making a solid first buy...

It still make take a little while to get it right -

I'd also suggest a drip tip... you can add a buck or two...
Dripping is what saved me... and it may or may not be your thing.... but worth a try for a buck or two...

The customer service at LF is great but I've had bad luck with their Riva and KGO batteries.

Cartomizers will fit either as long as 510.

But atty will fit either battery?

Sounds like a plan
BUT--nothing will come close to Marl.--my brand for almost 48 years .
I have looked and looked and looked some more . LOL
But the juice chase is half the fun!!


RE Atty:

Yes I have both and use both on my ego and Riva.
Both are 510 connection.

 

[CBB]

I have purchased a total of 10 Riva branded batteries and not had a a problem with any of them in a months usage.

+1 for drip tip.

I got by without one for 2 months though.
just removed cart and drip.
It is a little easier with the drip tip--but not that bad without.
Cheap though--since your ordering anyway.
Will need Mega AND a reg 510.

 

[thehangdude]

What is a drip tip for? and how do you use it? and finally, what is difference between A,B,C and D?
link Mods - Drip Tips

 

[Silversmyth]

A drip tip replaces the cart.
You just drip juice( 2-3 drops on a reg 510 atty) into hole in drip tip and vape.
OR you can just remove cart--drip-put cart back on and vape.
Will check on a-b-c-d- ??
Probably shape and or dia.

 

[Silversmyth]

OK--at LF--looks like type c or d are for reg 510. atty-- shape is only diff.
And a-b derlins anyway are for the xl mega atty-- same thing with shape choice as reg 510.
Matter of your choice on shape on both.
