Be still my heart. Scottbee - This is exciting news. Please keep us updated on all your findings
No, it's looks straight.
But something else is different -thread on the battery and cone looks identical to thread on regular kit but it's more loose and takes less turns to tight the cone.
All in all it looks like the battery was made by different manufacturer, better performance IMO only based on subjectives.
(the Rivas I bought in December had better brass plating and deeper air/vent notches on the threads of the batt than the ones i bought in October)
I bought the SE, cost 5 bucks more but its not your average riva either =) Ty (i'm your salt) was explaining that the obvious differences between the regular Riva and the SE were that:
- Button was bigger
- the word RIVA is larger near the atty connection
- more threads where the cone screws in
- the atty connection also lights up (like a ring looking down towards where the atty screws in)
In regards to the Carto kit i think Ty said that they use either a different supplier or different manufacturer (don't quote me on that). I would've went with that kit but they didn't come in Stainless steel, plus the SE's are almost confirmed... 99.9999 percent IMO, we just need the definitive answer from scottbee, but like I said before, this thing hits like a 3.7, a little better than one of my 3.7v mods =/ I guess its time to sell!
@Shadow - I'm really looking forward to USB passthrough SE Rivas if they do come out, I have a TON of those cables plugged into various places from my USB ego batteries. I'll update when the battery starts to die out and when its actually dead. I started vaping it at 11am and take about 7 big hits every 5-7 minutes, I'm running a 2ohm carto
I apologize for the thread-hijack. . . . . . .
Now what???? ;-)
yes, I started this thread if you notice simply asking asking about the batteries, I know you don't go pick the batteries off a battery tree and someone has to pay for them. So I simply wanted to find out if the batteries did in fact have a problem, not just demand they be replaced as some people might do. Plus its a hassle for me and you to replace the batteries so the first step was simply to ask about them. I'm sorry if i did that incorrectly.
I love a happy ending!!!
Liberty Flights is a great supplier!!!
They offer fantastic prices, shipping, & customer service!!!
yes, Ty did contact me, further they will send them out first so I'm not sitting without batteries. their shipping is cheap, it gets here fast, prices cheap. Thats why I like to shop there. just wish they would stock more royal smokers stuff.
