OMG!! What can I say? I am love love loving my new Riva! Currently sitting in the pub vaping caramel espresso whilst drinking my Bacardi and coke. This is what it's all about! This is sooooooo much better than smoking in every possible way. Just gutted I didn't discover this sooner.

BZ mate,well done!Cant beat a tipple with a good vape!

I'm sorry to keep annoying everyone with questions, but you guys are so helpful and such a font of vaping knowledge, and I just keep coming across more new problems, so here goes; my partner, having now seen my shiny new toys, has decided he'd like to start vaping too. Only a social smoker he says he's only interested in a Tabacco flavour juice, so can anybody recommend a good one?

Also, how often should I clean the clearos, and using what? I saw somewhere it said to clean them in hot (not boiling) water, but does this actually get all of the flavour out, or is there something better to use?

Thanks again. And as I said, sorry to be a pain with all the constant questions. X

As you will have heard already, taste is very subjective and recommending specific juices is difficult. I have moved away from tobacco flavours so I'm not going to try..

On cleaning clearos, they can be cleaned between flavour changes or when the taste goes off a bit. Some people never clean them, they just vape through flavour swaps. All they need really is a rinse through in warm water. Leave them to dry or just refil and continue vaping, but bear in mind the first few hits after a wash will be pants because you're just vaping steam

Thanks oneday.
Not sure if this is actually the place to put this, but I thought i'd share a picture of my little collection of vaping gear so far.

You could try a sample of the LnB juice from paradise vapes, it's a very mild and light tobacco flavour and tastes just like the smell of a packet of ciggies as you open the packet. It's quite neutral and very easy to use for a few days

I clean mine when the liqiud looks too dark or i swap juices.I juat take them apart wash in warm water.if i have used a particularly strong flavour(Root Beer for instance) i soak it in Vodka overnight,that removes any redidual flavouring.

Really happy to hear how pleased you are with your Riva kit Cambo

I like most of the tobacco flavours that I've tried from paradise Vapes -

And really love Vape Escapes Black Cat flavour.

[Cambo]

Thanks Chrissie. I've heard someone else mention Black Cat elsewhere on the forum I think. I've also been looking at Paradise Vapes site and they do have a wide range of tabacco flavours, I just have no idea which one to try, he said he wanted something like Marlboro Lights flavour but I tried to explain that I wouldn't be able to find anything that tasted exactly like that, I'd just have to try and see if I could get a decent tabacco one for him.

Has anyone tried VE's Gold&Silver?

[Cambo]

Oh, one other question - I'm find the samplers of juice at 20mg nic a little harsh, can I add a few drops of VG juice to these to make them a little mellower, or will this dilute the flavour?

[Chrissie]

Re the Paradise Vape's tobacco flavours - LnB & Drum are really good

Yes, you can add VG to your e-liquids, but it will dilute the flavour.

[Cambo]

So far I've tried the caramel espresso which I love, the chocolate truffle which I don't, and the chic haze I'm currently trying to make my mind up about. Yet to try the perpetu leche and the menthol. Now looking at trying loads more.

[Cambo]

Apologies, yet another question - when I bought my Riva I bought it with 2 clearo's rather than carto's because having used the skycig and nicolites for a few weeks I had a ton of once used carto's I could refill. However, I bought the cover cone and drip tip along with the kit so I could also use all of these spare carto's with it. Now i've assembled it using the carto there appears to be a bit missing and I can't find it on the vapeescape website, can anyone tell me what it's called so I can order one? Picture of the part needed attached. Many thanks.

Edited to add - Sorry, Think I've just answered my own question - the 'missing' part is the carto isn't it? It's just it's a black one so looks like it's part of the Riva?

[Chrissie]

Yes, that is a black carto sticking out the end of the cone
