Spare atties for Riva 510

[judy]

Need some fairly urgent help please. Been using the Riva for 2 weeks, one attie died after a week and the other one is failing so need to urgently order spares today so hopefully I will get delivery on Tuesday

Have left a message on Liberty Flights website to see whether the mini 510 attie will fit my Riva

This is the link for the mini attie from Liberty - has anyone else used this with the Riva 510?

All 510 atomisers are ok for the Riva, those will be fine

[judy]

Thank you very much for that, having a panic at the thought of not being able to vape, also really worried about getting the wrong ones, as it said "mini" thought they may not work

[Lilac]

Yes, thats the right one Judy, they're just trying to confuse the newbies

[deesigner]

Wish I'd have known that too, when I asked Liberty Flights they had none in stock. I've just ordered some from totally Wicked, although they appear to be a really good deal at just over £18.08 for 5 including delivery.

Hi Dee

Are these the ones you ordered from totally wicked?

I saw these but wasn't sure if they were the right ones. How long did delivery take? Have you used any yet?

[hissie]

Certainly seems us newbies are gonna have to be on the ball for a while when it comes to being stocked up.

I'm really bad at being organised too, so I'm defo going to have to step up my game.

[Chrissie]

Judy, those are the right ones for your Riva. Any 510 atomisers will fit.

Do be aware though that Totally Wicked don't have any warranty on their multi packs.

[buckowski]

There's been a slight change to warranty on atomiser multi packs bought at totally Wicked.

If you find any to be dead on arrival, you can return them, though it's got to be within 48 hours of receipt.

I've only ever had one atomiser to be D.O.A., its quite rare I think.

Hi Judy, yes those are the ones I've ordered. I panicked hearing everyone saying their atties were packing in! LOL. I've found that if I clean the top of the battery and the inner of the attie with kitchen roll they seem to start performing well again.

I only ordered them yesterday so I'll report back once I've got them

[judy]

Hi Dee

Thank you for that, will be interested to see how TW atties perform. Have tried cleaning the battery end and the attie but unfortunately it doesn't seem to make a difference with the frst one. ??? The second one is so far keeping going but only just. Fingers crossed it lasts until the new ones arrive

Thanks to everyone for their help on this, just didn't want to make a mistake with a vital order!

As may have been said many times before - atties often go into comas rather than die, so don't throw them away (until you've got so many you don't know where to put them all ).

[Chrissie]

Scylla is so right - atties do sometimes seem to go into a coma, why - I haven't a clue!

They are still the weakest link with e-cigs & maybe, like the old light bulb (& they sort of work in a similar way) it wouldn't be cost effective for manufacturers to make atties that last for ever..

[judy]

Well, left my comatose attie for 24 hours, cleaned again and I would need a vacuum to get a vape. Last resort clean again, dry after oven cooked tea and try again in the morning........

Other attie hanging on, LF have posted new ones, fingers crossed for their arrival tomorrow a.m. -

Went on a course today and went outside to vape with the smokers - will now send vaping info to people I met today, maybe more converts....

Judy just as a last resort, I've found that when my atties are getting short of breath, if I take lots of short blasts on them without stopping it appears to kick them back in again. Just keep holding the battery switch on and suck in quickly several times.

Great news on the possible converts, sounds like u had a productive day
