Charging Ego on Riva charger

[Blownupdolly]

This is probably a daft question to all you experts out there, but i am just about to buy an Ego twist from Jason and want to know if i have to buy another battery charger or can i just use the same one i use for my Riva 1100 batteries? I hope so as money tight at the moment.

TIA

You should be fine Dolly, but I'd wait for someone who has more technical savy than me to say for deffo . . . shopping is more my forte.

[Blownupdolly]

LOL..yeah me too!

[pixiguru]

I'd use it dolly lol not technical in anyway shape or form lol

I use my Riva charger to charge my twist - no problems at all doing so

Thanks Pixi
I know they are similar batteries but i got the charger in with the Riva starter kit i got from UK ecig store. I suspect they are just bundled in with them and are generic chargers but not 100% sure.

If it works ok for you Chrissie. I will go for it.

Dolly, if you have a look at vape escapes chargers for instance, there isn't a separate charger for the Twist, just the ego/Riva one -

What would i do without you mmwah xx

I use my old ego charger for my Mrs's Riva and it does the job fine. No problems at all.
I think they are both the same TBH.
The ego charger is rated:
input: DC 5V 500mA
output: DC 4.2v 420mA

The only thing I have a different charger for is The SD keyrings, the Rivas and Egos all get charged on the same one.

[Karma]

Yep, Malibu the SDK charger has a slightly different output!
The riva/ego chargers are all 420mAh output, so interchangeable.
No good for little cig-a-likes though, you need one with a lot less output for those

Thanks peeps. All sorted. I have ordered a twist from Jason today with a vivi nova stv to go on top
