Hi Micky, if I was you, I'd go for the Riva :)

If buying it from Liberty Flights, use discount code ECR69 for 15% off :)
This ^

The ego and riva have a ton of options and are less fuss. The riva is slightly higher voltage than the ego, making it slightly better of the otherwise almost identical units.

I don't know a ton about the e-power. I know I own an ego and it's not failed on me. It's a tried and tested workhorse of the vaping world. The riva is the same thing but it's regulated at a slightly higher voltage.

I like the idea of the epower but I'm skeptical about reccommending it because it's new. I've seen some posts about problems with the buttons falling out and things not fitting it quite right. I don't mean it's bad or anthing, I don't know enough about it. Because I already own an ego, I don't need a riva or an epower but who's to say it's not going to work for you.

Simply based on a tried and tested ecig that should be very robust, I'd say take the riva, get some cartomisers for it and give it a blast. Biggest plus is the battery life. It'll last a lot longer than your 510 and it's not massively bigger. The epower is a fair bit longer and a bit wider I think. It's also more convenient to me to just have the battery screw in to my laptop and charge instead of having to find a wall socket to charge a battery with after I took the ecig apart to take it out.

Right now, I wouldn't get an epower but only because I have an ego already so I have no need for one. Just my two cents but it's up to you.

It's not about form really either. I also own a box mod http://www.liberty-flights.co.uk/product.asp?id=59 the tank box mod. It's a little similar to how the epower is. Removable battery but it's a little flat box and looks hilariously like a detonator switch. It's a little less convenient to carry and recharge the batteries but it performs like an ego so I consider it a backup to use at home.

Edit: oh wait, isn't the epower an auto battery? I'd find that really annoying with a big pv, I'd be too tempted to leave it hanging out my mouth like I do with my volt :D I like autos for that but wouldn't want it on something that big.

In the US the Riva 510 Lite Bundle is the best deal at our Liberty-Flights and for your fave thinner juices I recommend Boge cartomizers (standard for longer battery life, LR for hotter hit). Liberty-Flights carries a good brand of Rivas

If you have access to good prefilled KR808D-1 cartomizers, you might prefer the Riva 901 (sames threads, can use some KR808D-1 cartomizers with no adapter) (but don't buy Riva 901 elsewhere - some places sell ones without the slotted post and they will need an adapter for more KR808D-1 cartos)

If you are looking for something tiny then instead look at Joye 510 manual (not the 510-T) and use a drip tip with the atomizer to test juices, cart + atomizer if you want (not the most popular way to vape), and Boge standard resistance cartomizers for your favorite thinner juices (slim ecigs cannot use the hotter LR cartomizers). If you ever want to try tanks just get a 510-T atomizer and 510-T tanks. Cartomizers hold more.

    in a cave, eh?
    I like the E-Power. The E-Power 18650 battery gives you awesome battery life relative to the other models. The parts are also replaceable. A couple of people have had a few issues with the button sticking after a while, but the button part is replaceable. The E-Power is bigger than an eGo or Riva, though. It's about the size of a large cigar. And it only has the 10-second cutoff and a button protector to keep if from accidentally burning a hole in your pocket.
