HI guys
I've got one spare to be going on with. I clean the connectors with tissue paper before they go into the recharger but getting some swabs sounds a good idea and I also make sure I don't screw the cartos too tight. I don't really fancy trying to glue it back on cos I'm sure I'd get in a mess and ruin it!!

Hi everyone
Had my Riva a couple of weeks and my stardusts a few days now. Everything was going great until today. I put a battery on to charge (it was as flat as a pancake) but the green light stayed on and it wouldn't charge. Just tried it again and it now seems to be charging OK with the red light on. Can these batteries be a bit temperamental?
Also, got a prob with one of the stardusts. I was unscrewing the tip to refill when the little sliver coloured bit totally broke off so I can't screw the tip back in. It looks like it's been stuck on but the whole unit is unusable now. I've just emailed the supplier to ask for a replacement so hope he is OK with that.
I'm sure I'll "get there in the end" with this vaping business LOL.
Thanks guys.

Poppsie the average seems to be 3-5ml per day. that's amazing oneday - 5mls lasts me about 4 or 5 days!!!! I'm wondering if I'm not soaking my cartos enough. I've just ordered a couple of stardusts so I can see how much I do vape a day. |

Kernow, I wondered if it was because they were new as soon as I read your post. I'm going to order a couple in the next few days so will report whether I get the same problem. In the meantime, I'm pleased with my Riva but I'm getting through a fair bit of juice. Don't know whether it's me vaping a lot but the cartos seem to go dry quite quickly. I'm realising now that vaping is a very fine art  |

OK thanks guys, think I'll order a couple of SR's for now as it seems there's something new and better on the market every week LOL.
Fish, do you prefer your SR's or LR's?

Guys, a question about Stardusts pleeeeze - how many times can you use them? I'm guessing at the moment that when you empty one, you can wash it out and reuse it. How many do you think I need to order and shall I order the SR ones so's not to drain my battery quickly? Ta muchly.
My Riva is great and didn't need to recharge it until about 10 this morning wow.......

Poppsie, just looked through your gallery, what a beautiful dog, love the pics, very handsome indeed  The holiday cottage looks lovely, we have two Nuthatch that come regular to the bird feeders, they are so dainty and pretty, we are moving today and I wont see them again  or all the other lovely birds that I have come to watch with great pleasure eachday, told my husband I need to write a little note and leave it by the feeders saying -moved to-(new address)  Thanks Sandra. It was a lovely little cottage, we were quite cosy in it. It was a few days before the nuthatch arrived but it was worth the wait and like you say, very dainty little birds. I would definately put a note out for them advising of your new address LOL. Good luck with the move - are you going very far? |

Hi Poppsie,and a belated welcome.Going back onto the subject of turning the Riva on/off.I bought the same model as yourself a short while ago from the same seller and had the same problem as you at first.But after a bit of practice found that 3 quick presses of the button it works fine.I think it's all a matter of timing and practice. Hope this helps. Hi kernowman I've been fiddling with it all evening and a little while ago I managed to do it on 3 clicks. It's amazing it's identical to you. Practise makes perfect as they say LOL. |

My Riva is great, been using it since lunch time and it's still going strong. I would have recharged the batteries from my old kit a dozen times by now. Hi Clive, glad you are doing OK too. I've been looking at the stardusts and they are definately on my list for next time. I feel like a kid with a new toy. So it's a big thumbs up for the Riva (and this great forum with it's helpful members).  |

What flavours did you get poppsie? Hi oneday. I started off with menthol but it was very thick. I've now tried quite a few including: cinnamon apple (lovely) banana, pina colada, butterscotch, bitter cherry,black cherry, creme de menth, but my fave so far is cinnamon apple from Paradise Vape. It's got quite a tasty kick to it. |

Thanks karma, you are sooo right. I've got a couple of needle bottles from Paradise Vape and they make refilling so much easier. I used to slosh it everywhere LOL but these are great. |
