Hi Dave I ordered pink of course ok, my lovely pink Riva has just arrived. it's sitting in front of me on my desk and I am confused ??? I have the following bits and pieces: 2 x 1100mah batteries - check - understand that 5 x standard resistance cartomisers - check - understand that 1 x Cover Cone - check - understand that 1 x USB charger - check - understand that 1 x USB mains adapter - check - understand that So far so good but then I have: 1 x Vision Ego Standard Resistance Clearomiser - not a clue ??? 1 x 510 Drip Tip - not a clue ??? oh, and a vape escape carry case Sorry for being a real dim wit what on earth do i do with the clearomiser and the drip tip?

Thanks karma ah ha lightbulb moment - you use the drip tip instead of the white bung to vape - I though you used it to drip the juice into - sometimes the terminology confuses me. so if I've got this right ... a clearomiser is the same as a cartomiser but different lol! the clue is probably in the name. Have been using and refilling carts but will try the clearomiser tonight in the safety of my own home

You got it smokescreen. The advantage of the clearo is that you will be able to see how much juice you have in it. You are quite right that the name of the drip tip suggests you drip juice in it - you can only do this though if you get an atomiser (which is essentially like a cut down version of the carto with no wadding in it) - useful for tasting a new juice as you can just try a few drips that way. With a cartomiser is just acts as a tip to make it more comfortable to put in your mouth.

Thanks karma and dave Phew - glad i've got that sorted now. Was so excited when my Riva arrived this morning that I had a little panic when I saw all these unfamiliar bits and bobs. Back to excited now and just waiting eagerly for the battery to charge

Smoke Watch this video but jump in 7 mins to miss the rant. I only got my 1st riva this morning and at the moment think carts may be better but it is early days for me

I lie my ecig on it's side so there always tends to be juice on the wick anyway. I don't like to stand it up , it falls over too easily.

It's normally partially charged, it shouldn't take this long to charge.

Mine took about 3 mins each :-) if the light is green it's charged. Used about 1/2 the juice in the clearo (this is the same as yours) I also got a V3 like in the video and will try that out later, at the moment I think I prefer the draw of the carto but will keep my options open for now.
