Riva 510 SE - Special Edition or the Riva 510 is there a difference?

[ISBN]

The Riva 510 SE (Special Edition) and the Riva 510, is there a difference between the two?

Is it just a cosmetic difference or is there something extra special about the SE?

 

[Steeldragon]

The main difference in the Riva 510 and the Se verson is the color accents. The SE(special edition) have chrome accents instead of gold accents the traditional Riva's have. The Riva SE were the first to maintain a 3.7 across the board but with the new batteries. They are both true 3.7 volts compared to the Ego at 3.2 or 3.3 level.

Thanks Steeldragon!!!

Do you know if everything Riva 510 (750 mAh) that Liberty Flights has in stock now are the new 3.7s?

Hi, I'm not a dragon, but I happen to know the answer...

I asked Ty the very same question just a few days ago. He said that at this time, their entire stock should be 3.7v, with a possible exception of some older kits.

He told me to put a note in the order box and ask specifically for a true 3.7v Riva. He can make sure you get the correct voltage.

He's a nice guy.

Thanks Katya

Have you been using Ego-T attys/tanks on your Rivas?

If so can U use them on the 900 mAh and 1100 mAh Riva batts.?

 

[Katya]

Yup.

I like the eGo-T type B tanks much better than the type A. The flavor is cleaner and more pronounced. They work fine on my eGos, but they really shine on 3.7v. However, the 510-Ts that I'm currently vaping do much better on the eGos. The atties are small and tend to heat up too much on 3.7v.

 

[ISBN]

Good to know.

How is the leakage with the TypeBs?

 

[Katya]

None. Zero, zip, nada. There is some condensation on the surface of the tank, but that's not ejuice.

I think they tweaked the big ones a bit. They are really nice. However, the flavor of the 510-ts is almost like dripping. My main gripe with those is the size of the tanks... 0.5ml. That's just awful. There is a larger tank available, 0.7 ml, but it's not Joye.

Let me find the link. Hang on. I want Ty to look at them, too.

I know. That's why I'm showing it to Ty.

He can deal with China, I'll deal with Liberty Flights...

 

[Steeldragon]

OK, now I'M confused. Who mentioned Badgers? I know you're from Wisconsin and all.

Just to be on the safe side, I'd pony up the extra $4.40 and get the SE, if you were hedging. I personally prefer the silver/chrome accents to the gold color, so it's a no-brainer if I was in your shoes.

"Badgers we don't need no stinking badgers..."

And YES China is way out of my league at this point

 

[Steeldragon]

Everyone's taste is subjective, either that or I am cheap. I like the gold accents. I can't tell the difference in the 2 when I use them.
