Riva 510 & clearomizer

[newcutey]

I am using a Riva 510 standard from liberty flights. I just bought a pack of royalsmokers clearomizers. So far, so good...but the ce2 sticks out more than a inch from the cone. Not exactly aesthetic. What would be the best clearomizers for the 510? And who sells them?

Also, I'm ready to give up on atomizers as a 5 pack barely last me 2 weeks and the riva ones are always sold out on liberty flights. And I've wasted alot of money on Rivas even though I researched and saw great reviews. I've been through 8 in the past 2 months despite following all the tips. So any suggestions on better ecigs and fast suppliers would also be helpful.

Wish that I could help you new but I've never had much luck with clearomizers (there are others who are much more successful with them). With your atomizers, you may want to blow them out from the battery end (wipe if you are using your mouth) or even use a bit of compressed air. Let them dry. The atomizers may just be caked up w/ juice.

If you allow your atomizers to go dry you may have burned them. Make sure that you are dropping about 3 drops onto atty as soon as the flavor tastes off.

If your batteries are dying quickly you may want to look into the cartomizers resistance to make sure that this is not the problem. If your cartomizer or atomizer is not appropriate ohm for your battery can cause them to die out too quickly.

I'm sure others with more experience will chime in but some things to get the conversation rolling. You also may want to look into a more solid mod with removable batteries if you are going thru Rivas too quickly.

Most use cartomizers for everyday vaping. Since a cartomizer only has to last and work well for a week or 2, most prefer that to depending on atomizers. Plus cartomizers give a fresh experience every time you start a new one. I only use atomizers to test new juices and drop occasionally used or thick juices at home - I do not depend on them.

No idea on clearomizers. There are normal size and xl. If you bought xl then you bought the longer ones. The most popular cartos on 510 threaded devices are plain old non-clear 1 ml Boge and the hotter 2 ohm ones are what most prefer on the 450mah+ batteries (which are all the 2 ohm should be used on)

Thanks for your response. I used to be a pack a day smoker so I'm wondering if I'm puffing too fast/inhaling to deep for the atty's to keep up. Just all around frustrated after the first 3 months with little problems. I can't keep plopping down $40 bucks a month on atty's. I've tried blowing, soaking, boiling, storing upside down...rewetting the week...still haven't solved the problem. That's why I tried to clearomizer.

Yeah, attys are the weak link of the system, for sure. Just try this method. I really hope it works for you. Every night before I go to bed I take the atty I've used that day (OKAY not EVERY night) and rinse it out under the faucet with warm water as hot as I can stand it. I mean right up under the faucet. I then blow ALL of the water out of it. First from the threaded end then from the other end. I then set it on a place with the threaded end up where air can circulate through it. I rotate several that way and they've been working fine for months. I believe that if you don't let the coil gunk up, they will last longer. As long as you don't vape it dry. That's what kills attys. Sucks doing daily maintenance, but not as much as having to keep buying attys all the time.

base234-thanks, I'll give that try. I've had luck with scraping the inside with a paper clip or syringe needle but that can easily kill atty's if you're not careful and it doesn't last long. I've tried washing but only after the were half working and most didn't recover. I'll give your method a shot.

The regular (.9 ml) Clearos fit nicely on a Riva. I've seen them at GotVapes and Totally Wicked, but they are out of stock at both places.
