Riva unc

[Steeldragon]

The UNC was originally listed as 1300 mah but after some companies started testing them they were showing up at 1100 mah and so they started advertising as such. I was reading in the Liberty Flight forum that they weren't a true 3.7 like the Eastmall Riva's and the SLB Riva's. They fell somewhere in the middle of the EGO's 3.2 and the Riva 3.7 range.

So what is the true voltage of the Riva UNC? The 750 mAh Riva SE – and Hoosier E-Cig Supply's 1100 mAh "SLB eGo/KGO" – are 3.7V. What is the UNC?

I haven't seen anyone testing underload so far, Don. I was wondering the same....

I have no tester other than my mouth and lungs. Comparing my Riva 750 SE batteries with the UNC battery using the same set up, I am going to say these are not true 3.7v. The SEs are better hitting. But the UNC battery does last and last.

I know what you mean 'mouth and lungs' and that is what I expected. Someone on a Riva thread after the SE's hit said that they thought all new Rivas would be like the SE - I've had a few new non-SE's since and by 'mouth and lungs' that isn't the case It's a good gage and I can tell which are which without looking.

I can tell too. And I have yet to try anything above 3.7v yet. Not sure I ever will. Who knows....

When I bought my first kit, I did not know the SEs were true 3.7v. I just figured since the SEs were "special edition" and cost a couple more dollars, there HAD to be something better about them. I'm sure glad I bought the SE. I later bought a regular Riva 750 battery for back up, then bought my UNC. I can tell a difference in them all compared to the SE. Just a small difference, but there is a difference.

Thanks, folks!

Glad I got my 1100 mAh KGO (from Hoosier E-Cig Supply): it's high mAh and 3.7V*. And that long (relatively) slender chrome body is so sleek!

* Based on both my own "mouth and lung" test and on these voltmeter readings. [NOTE: In the video, Brent calls it the SLB "Ego", but it's a KGO.]​
