Is the battery getting hot or the atomizer? If the battery is getting hot, then that's not a good thing. If the atomizer is getting then that could be bad, too. Harder draw, no sizzle or pop could be a sign that it's blocked and not getting any airflow. This could be from flooding. Take it off, blow it out and try it again.
I have read about break in periods, could that be what this is, vapor looks a lot more like what I see in vids now its quite good.
Are you using a cart and how long have you been using the same cart?
Also Riva usually ships with LR atomizers. Maybe pick up a standard resistance 510 atomizer or 2 - it will not be as hot. I don't use atomizers any more except to test juices and occasionally drip. I use Boge cartomizers and the LR ones (ohms 2.0 or 2.5) are the hotter ones. I use the standard ones currently.

I drip and it is burning hotter then it has these past 2 days in the last few hours, I noticed if I wait a few min it goes back to normal for 1 draw then back to the hotter mor flavorful vape, I ordered from liberty-flights.com I think it has standerd 510 atomizers.
Could it also be cause I been chain vaping? (I just noticed and will that kill atomizer?)
Ok took a break and sizzle and everything is back to normal, thank you guysI guys atomizer needs break sometime?
u should be ok...when i chain vape i make sure the atty coil under the bridge never glows, make sure its wet but not too much to overflow the atty.
Depending on what type of juice/mix/how thick it is...may take a little longer for the liquid to get soaked into the wick.

I usually let it sit for a little when the atomizer gets really hot to the touch, like almost can't hold onto it more than a second. If I'm in my work van I put it in from of the A/C for a bit. The vapor DOES get a lot better after it breaks in, I think it's because the wick and coil gets gunked up juice on it and the gunky stuff helps more evenly distribute the heat in there instead of just hitting the juice on the surface of the coil. I find that occasionally after heavy use the draw gets a lot harder and the atomizer heats up quick but produces little vapor. That's when the atty's clogged. I just do an alcohol soak like shown on some youtube vids, let it dry overnight or longer depending on the atty. Still though after there will be carbon buildup on the coil and it's still a broken in atty just a little refreshed. I've revived atty's that would not vape at all this way (tends to happen more on the cheaper 510 attys)
I have a reva and mine gets hot all the time but I'm not sure if that is normal or not. .... any insight is welcome...
I think the Riva's have a little bit more power to them than standard joye eGo's. Definitely get little bit more of a "hit" out of it. Or it may just be that when you press the button on an eGo it takes a second to actually start heating whereas Riva's just GO. Must have something to do with the regulator.
