It look as if the XO mix is a mixture but they don't give the ratio....and it does mean pg/vg. as you scroll down and look at the different ones, they seem to be offering a pg version, a vg version and a mixture....They describe the flavors, but I am sure the mix means pg/vg
hope this helps.

I am pretty new to vaping as well and I also got the Riva 510. I can't really compare it anything else as it is the only device I have but, it seems pretty awesome to me. I've had mine a little over a month now and haven't had any issues with the device. All the atties that came with it and the one LR atty I bought all still work very well too.

As for flavors, as someone who smoked Camels and thought I would like the tobacco flavor, I ordered three and didn't care much for any of them. I got the Menthol Blend, RY4, and Home Countries. Home Countries was the best to me out of the three. Oddly I only ordered one non tobacco flavor and that was coconut and it was the one that turned out to be my favorite. Speaking of which I need to order some more lol. Anyone one who has tried mine at work, they all seem to like the coconut too, the best.

Other then that, I would recommend getting a drip tip, they are cheap and can be used on the regular atties that come with the Rivas. However, I do recommend getting at least one LR atty, I found I got better flavor while dripping with these and better TH and VP. Might want to try out the boge cartomizers too, I found I really disliked the carts that came with the kit and even disliked the smart carts I ordered too.

Good luck!

Got my Riva kit from them and it is excellent. I only use cartomizers with it, boge 2.5 and 3.0's. Good shipping, and prices with their 20% off button. My experience with their liquid has not been as good. Try it, compare it to others you'll ultimately buy in the future, and you'll know what I'm talking about. Good luck, and please be nice to the owners (Abe) I believe. He's trying to "run a business".

Congratulations, Zoo. Enjoy your new Rivas. I love mine. And I love Boge cartos. I use the 2.0Ω ones on my eGos (3.2v) and the 2.5Ω Boge cartos on my Rivas (3.7v). I also like the new eGo-t type B fillerless atties. I'm also experimenting with the 510-Ts. So far so good. You may want to give them a try sometime in the future. What color Rivas did you get?

As for ejuices, it's all trial and error. When I first started vaping, I was ordering eliquid like a maniac from every place other vapers recommended. I'd say I hated or disliked most of it...

Took me a very long time to find my favorites.

I also learned that most ECF approved suppliers specialize either in eliquids or in hardware. It's very hard to do both.

You'll figure it out. Good luck!

Agreed Katya, I think that the low resistance Boge's actually bring out the flavor more in the juices with the Riva. I got the Riva Lite Bundle, standard black with gold trim, but now I'm thinking I should have got a flashier color as I always show this thing off to all my "analog" friends. The special edition really looks neat. Despite not liking their juices, I continue to buy my hardware from them. Heck, I didn't even know Boge had a 2.5ohm until I saw it on LF's site.
