Hi folks hope you all are well, I just received my Riva 510 kit and Its amazing with the manual battery's. I can vape now without worrying about dodgy auto cut outs, I got a USB charger with mine ( no wall plug ) But I have a couple wall plugs already, One that I got with my Skycig and one that I got when I bought a 510 kit, Is It OK to use these wall plugs to charge my Riva 510?
Thanks.

I think you need to check the input and output of the mains plugs you have VM, to make sure they're compatible with your Riva batteries. The specifics can be found on this Mains Plug at Vape Escape . . . www.vapeescape.co.uk/usb-mains-adapter~271

Usb is standard 5v , the Riva charger drops that to 4.2 so you should be ok, Should... ;-)

@ Tom Yes I did and I really like It, I picked a black one, Very stylish and expensive looking and works a treat. I wont be going back to Auto battery's any time soon now that I have control over my vaping, The auto cut-off was doing my head In on the other kit I have and one was even cutting out before the ten seconds. Karma that Is a really fab thing you linked to ebay, Might be Investing In one as Its a no brainer really. Well one of my wall plugs says input 90-264v output 5v ( 500 mah ) and my other ones are basically input 240v output 5v so these will be fine wont they? One good thing about buying a few starter kits I guess Is the amount of bits you can keep as spares. Thanks again everyone for your replies.

If it has a USB plug on it the output should be 5 volts. What does change however is the current output (volts = pressure current = flow or quantity). Some USB output wall plugs have fairly low current outputs, ideally you want one that gives a minimun of 500mA (Half a Amp) lower than this will work but it will be slower to charge. Over 500 mA is fine too, in the car I have a plug in adapter that gives out 2A and all my stuff has been fine on that.
