Lucky you Des...
This vaping has cost me an "arm and a leg" so far - but then again I am a sucker for all things shiny and technical...!!!

I bought more or less the same Electroplating Kit that Scott has from a very good UK Company and it enables plating using, Gold, Silver, Nickel, Copper, Platinum, Rhodium...
Kit is a bit on the expensive side, at around £400.00 but they do some cheaper versions as well.
Can be a bit tricky at the start but the results so far are very good...
Will post a few photos of plating successes...

As Jason says...if the CE3 is not a LR then it probably is a "bad one"...
Also interesting that Blakey has not experienced the problems others have had with the old Riva but then again thats the unpredictability of this hobby...!!!
Hope you get sorted.

Been using this for a while now and it is a great bit of kit...
Had made my own a while back by making a Frontend in MS Visual Studio for an old spreadsheet I created but it did not have the "bells and whistles" that this baby has...
Fantastic.
Thanks.

If the CE3 is LR then that could be the problem right there...
I put a LR on a Riva battery and when I pressed the button it fired and staed on...I unscrewed the Carto and tried again but the battery was dead - I thought that it might not have been fully charged and so tried a second Riva Battery - same thing happenned!!!
OVERALL RESULT - TWO FRIED RIVA BATTERIES....
I spoke with Lisa over at Cloud 9 and she did say that really Riva Batteries are not designed to work with LR Cartos/Attys and she even has a disclaimer on the Riva products to that effect (Note to self - Read the small print!!!) She did replace one of them at no extra cost mind you...!!!
Some people have had NO PROBLEMS with them but I guess I was just unlucky...
I do use my eGO Battery (1100mAh) with LR and they seem OK.

I'll just echo what the rest have said - Ethyl Maltol and Honey Flavour will certainly add a bit of sweetness.
You could also try some Sucralose available at Cloud 9 Vaping or just play around with your PG/VG Mix...

When they say "Hurricane Katia will hit Northern England and Scotland...", they clearly forgot from "A" - Level Geography that Northern Ireland is in the way...!!!
Seriously severe winds and torrential rain last night and this morning, couple of trees down and a few roof tiles off our new bungalow (which we haven't even moved into yet!) - parts of the garden are flooded and the thought of going into work with the storms like this is...blaaaargh!!!

Menthol from Cloud 9 Vaping is very good.

These Spiky things are GREAT - I ordered 3 and got 6 (obviously!).
Much better than Syringes for filling just about anything...
A damn useful bit of kit IMHO...!
Thanks.

Get yourself some Cartomisers and "let rip..."
You will notice the difference...
Also Grizwalds Juices are stunning (as Perpetua said above) especially the 666 and Golden Burginia! You can also get a 5 Pack "Pick 'N Mix" from VapeEascape for Grizwalds Flavours - VERY NICE!

SKYCig was the first device I purchased and by far my worst mistake to date...
I can confirm that it is a both a 510 fitting and is completely and utterly useless! A shame since it cost me £38.00 and I also bought 6 Packs of Menthol and 6 Packs of Vanilla Carts for it (around 75.00 in total)...
Riva 510 from Lisa was my next purchase and it was the correct one at the time - I have many more Mods now BUT still use the Riva.

Got mine to try and whilst the Vapour Production is awesome, I found that it "killed" the taste of my Golden Burginia 36mg.
Was running it on my ProVari and went down through the Voltages and even at the lowest I couldn't get the flavour I was used to...
Now in fairness, I am going to perservere because it could be my taste buds or a number of other reasons. I do like the idea of them and as you rightly said they are easy to fill and vape like a train...
Going to load one up with a different Juice tomorrow and see what happens.
BTW - any suggestions as to "cleaning" one out? I filled the first one with Golden BUrginia as I said and it was not good but was going to clean it out before loading up again or is that not adviseable...???
Thanks mate...
