I ordered a Riva 510 (Riva 510-Carto Deluxe) from Liberty Flights today, for an excellent price, and in the item description it says "two special, wide diameter cones" are included. No definitive description or reason was offered in the product description to why or what purpose the "wider" cone would serve and I am unable to locate any reference to a "wider" cone on any other e-cig retailer site including Liberty Flights.
Does anyone know anything about the "wider" cones and what purpose they would serve. Genuine Joye 510 cartos are identical in length and width to an assembled Genuine Joye510 atomizer/cartridge.
I emailed the company and, very disappointingly, did not receive any type of correspondence from them whatsoever. Hopefully their service is better than their support.
I posted on their forum and got some opinions from a few nice people but no definitive answer.
I don't anticipate the "wider" cone being a problem but my curiosity has been peaked.
Any information that anyone could relay about the wider cones would be greatly appreciated.

Aren't the Boge cartos shorter than the two-piece atomizer/cart that the normal Riva 510 comes with? My impression (not from LF's website but from elsewhere) was that the cone is actually just shorter to account for the length difference of the non-battery portion of the device. I could be way off on this and, if so, I apologize. It does seem that their use of the term "wide diameter" is rather confusing.

I received, after 8 hours, a reply from someone at LF concerning the wide cone. I was informed the included cones are wider to accommodate the paper wrapping on the carto.

@ Cee_Jay- The item description states the included cartos are Boge and if I recall correctly they are LR. I prefer Boge catos so that was also a plus for me.
Thanks to all who offered to help me satisfy my curiosity.

Yes, Boge carto is ~.400" shorter than standard atty/cart combo. The regular cone leaves nearly 1/2" exposed for vaping, works fine for me. Resistance is 2Ω - slightly lower than regular atty.

I believe the person that would be writing back to you is actually in the UK, so if you wrote in the afternoon here, he would be sound asleep. So allow for the time difference (8 hrs I think).
