Contact your supplier. There is something wrong. I have 3 sets of Riva's and they all charge in about 2 hours. My Riva's are awesome. Once you get them replaced you will love them
My RiVa charges in a couple hours too. A little faster from a USB port for some reason. Definitely contact your supplier. Mine checked the batteries & charger before they put it in my hands (A-Z Smokefree). I watched 'em do it. Impressed the heck out of me.
I agree....check the Batts, or charger..My Riva is my most fav 3.7 ..w/LR atty and the cone...she Rocks! Batteries charge in like 2 hours...
Ok I'll say what everybody else has, that's definitely not typical. Both batteries in my Riva Kit perform equally and only take a few hours each to charge. Contact your supplier. You definitely have equipment issues somewhere in the chain.
well this is the biggest problem i didn't buy it from a vendor and i dont wanna start any .... and try to give it back i mean i paid 20 bucks for a batterie and charger and a lr atty that lasted one day also pretty much the stuff lasted one day and its been two weeks i talk to the guy on a regular basis and realy he's the one who has helped me get started in this e cig situation and when i bought the joye 510 he gave me 4 bateries two chargers two attys which are almost done one 15 ml bottle of juice and a bunch of carts so i mean he has hooked me up b 4 so i kind of do wanna look the gift horse in the mouth you know what i'm sayin?
If the LR atty popped... it may have taken the battery with it.
Pretty common actually.
omg your like the man i belive i have watched more then one of your videos on cleaning attys? i mean i don't realy know you but you seem sincer in your videos about knowing what your talking about and that would make sense but then again it popped after i had a problem charging it and i tried using even though the green like didn't come on but it wasn't fully charged now it has a hard time heating up a reg atty well since this whole bunch of BS and being short on cash from my custody battle i plan on buying a box mod and i realy like the looks of the Ali'i by R&R but they don't have the variable volt in that model yet and i realy like the wet box but i want a higher volt i used my budys 6v and loved it. it was right on every time but his was not a feeder and since i'm on the road alot between driving a hour for work and gettin my boy i need somthing so i don't have too drip and want it to work consistent every time. have any suggestions
Check your charger, you may have a standard 510 charger instead of one for the Riva/ego
Check your input and output voltage....and the mA input and output...
You should be able to find this on the part of the charger you screw the Riva into.
Next, if you are not using your computer to plug the USB Charger into, you need to look for the same things on the wall adapter.
They both should have an output of 400-500mA if it is lower than that, odds are you are using the wrong charger or adapter

sorry bud don't use those things don't realy care for english spelling, and all that crap, hold on heres a couple, yea no not for me i'm understandable thats all that matters not being graded
I had a similar issue after a week with my Riva. Turned out I didn't pay enough attention to maintenance. Once I gave the battery and charger connector a good clean with some isopropyl alcohol, charging and battery life went back to normal. May be worth giving that a try.
Speaking of which...I better do all that tomorrow...
i belive i will try that sounds like a good idea
Well.... I fixed that up for you. Hopefully the meaning was captured by the edit.
If the battery is bad... there's not much you can do. You can try cleaning the threads on the battery and atomizer with a q-tip and some rubbing alcohol. Make sure it's firmly screwed into the charger when you charge it. But an atomizer popping or shorting can take a battery out- AND LR atomizers do fail very frequently compared to normal ones.
I'd get a new battery. But instead of buying one big one, try getting three medium ones (eGo batteries?). That way if one fails you are not stranded.
(As a side note- I am not "the man"... I am *a* man- I hope you found the vids helpful)
found the problem oredered another charger just to see what would happen and looks like working good so far produceing plenty of smoke again and running for full length of the time. it was deff. the charger. now it was the same charger guess theirs just a problem with iit
