joking aside rog...the whiskey cream is by far the best juice i have vaped but remember all our taste buds differ whats nice for me might not be for someone else This is very true. Even flavours you like now, you may hate in a month or two and vice versa.

LOL, I'll take the flavours as they come and might even try the Whiskey cream sometime ... if there's any left Okay, that's the instructions fully followed with the battery (one of them) and I've got it all together now. What I've done is fill one cartridge with Gold and Silver and one with Winson and attached each to an atomiser, I'm guessing this is okay? I found I had to use more than 12 drops in each to get them going, it was more like 15/18, maybe my drops were a bit small? Anyway, both seem quite sweet to me with the G&S the sweetest of the two and the Winson a little less so. Both seem to be quite smooth, perhaps that's because I'm used to the harshness of analogues but they are smoother than the stuff that's in the E-Lites which I find gives more of a throat hit. I kinda like the throat hit of the E-Lite I have to admit so the jury is out on the 2 I've tried so far, I realise though that s my taste buds develop/change I may think differently in a few days time, well see and in the meantime I'll keep on vaping these and try some of the samples Jason kindly sent too. Jason, of the 5 I have (the 2 mentioned above and the 666, Royal and Shade) which is most likely to give the most throat hit or is that all down to personal taste? Fascinating stuff ... at least for me lol!

Personal taste Roger really. For me, the Winston would just edge it, followed by the G&S. The others are smoother. But, you may find exactly the opposite. There are others in the Flavouart tobaccos that really pack a punch, such as the Perique. But, I would give it a few days and get used to it, then see what you think. Glad to hear that you have taken to it so well though

I think I prefer the Winson too but both are growing on me ... Have been conditioning the second battery today ... Couple of question re the Riva, which is working well BTW, are there any reasonably discreet hard cases that would fit the 1100, allowing it to be safely carried in a pocket, and also what flat tip (is that the right phrase?) cartridge would be suitable for this device? Incidentally I notice that cartomisers are cheaper than atomisers, which would you recommend in the longer term? I know you guys are great at answering all these questions and seem more than happy to do so but again I have to say a massive thanks

Hi Rog Some people recommend glasses cases for carrying the Riva Style e-cigs and there's also Ego cases available on the site which are a similar size. Because the Riva has the 1100mah batteries, they made need disassembling. I definately prefer cartomisers to atomisers because they are more economical and less hassle, but that's just me and others will have different opinions. You can usually refill one at least half a dozen times before it's ready for the bin (some wash them out) and they hold a lot more than a standard cartridge. Dual coil cartomisers hold even more, but I wouldn't recommend moving on to them until you have settled with your new kit. Flat cartridges...not sure about but I'm sure someone else may be

No mate, 901 is the connector size, the riva is 510 so you need 510 carts

You can buy a very cheap 510-901 adapter from most e-cig sites for around £2.50.

Just checked that link, it's just the cart that you want. They should be exactly the same. Like drip tips they fit both models, sorry, should have clicked the link first

Rog, you have to be tad careful when using some of the 901 cartridges (mouthpieces) with 510 atomisers as some of them can end up melting. I'd recommend instead trying a drip tip. OK they aren't as flat as the whistle tip 901 cartridges but they do feel better than round 510 cartridges. Don't want to take your business away from Jason, but a couple of tobacco flavours that I use regularly are Drum & LnB from Paradise vapes. If you want more throat hit, go for a higher PG mix - on the other hand VG gives more vapour. paradisevapeuk.vstore.ca/index.php/cName/ejuice-tobaccoAlso as previously mentioned, the LR (Lowe Resistance) atomisers/cartomisers give more throat hit.

No worries blakey, thanks Chrissie, thanks for the info, the idea of melting the cart is a little worrying! So drip tips, tell me about them do you attach them to the cart or are they carts themselves? Anywhere that sells decent ones? Those Paradise Vapes juices sound good, might have to try them too ... so much to sample lol! Sounds like LR is the way to go for throat hit!

Those Paradise Vapes juices sound good, might have to try them too ... so much to sample lol! Sounds like LR is the way to go for throat hit! Drip tips fit on to atomisers and allow you to drip juice directly on to the element due to a large hollow center. They have the added bonus of making exellent mouthpieces when connected to carto's and all the various tank mods have a look here paradisevapeuk.vstore.ca/product_info.php/pName/colourful-drip-tips/cName/diy-accessories or here www.vapeescape.co.uk/search.asp?types=Vaping+Spares+%3E+Drip+Tipsfor a couple of examples Edit- cross post with the boss- sorry boss
