You may as well order an extra clearo or two. They are a replaceable part of the riva and should last a couple of weeks or so before they need replacing. The riva comes with 5 cartos so it's a good idea to try a couple of your flavours in those and then put your favourite in the clearo. RY4 is a popular flavour with newbies (newbie myself, only 10 days in) - a tobacco flavour with a sweet/caramel background.

Go for it with the Riva. I was really worried about having to fill cartos and clearos, all seemed a bit technical to me. Clearos are SO easy to fill, cartos a bit of a faff but not difficult. Romelee has a really good guide for using a Riva.

Thanks. I'm currently really enjoying Chocolate, Watermelon (seems to give a great amount of vape compared to some it seems! Especially Dekang Watermelon anyway) and also Banana! Just one real disappointment so far, and that's the Dekang Orange - really tastes nasty, like some kind of floor cleaner! Have heard others say it also tastes like orange sweets, but am not even getting that! Peach was ok, but certainly not as tasty or as obvious as I expected. The same with Pear really. Just average on both. Of course I appreciate different people have slightly different experiences depending on their palates - so this is just my view I'm loving the fruit flavours too. I have a sweet tooth but haven't really gone for the chocolate or dessert ones, they're ok but I'd rather eat them  |

Hi Phil  It was reading all the posts on here, from people like yourself that were totally off the cigarettes from the word go, that persuaded me to give it a shot. I thought I would combine the two and hopefully only smoke 4 or 5 stinkies a day. Well... my Riva turned up and I've not had a single cigarette since What flavours do you like? |

Hi tigger and a big WELL DONE I hope that in the future I will be saying that it is 2 months/3months/4months etc etc since I last smoked a cigarette. 9 days and I already feel like I've cracked it |

Totally agree with Mark - as a newbie I thought 'dripping' sounded beyond me, but within a week I'd bought an atomiser. I bought this one; www.vapeescape.co.uk/510-standard-resistance-atomiser~9 and you use the drip tip that came with your Riva. Most of us can't resist buying and trying different flavours. It can take a while to find one that you want to vape all day. I'm still going from flavour to flavour and haven't settled on a favourite yet. I sometimes vape several flavours in one session! Can bugger up your taste buds a bit Make sure you drink plenty of water as it can leave you with a dry mouth and throat. |

I'm on day 9 with my Riva and haven't touched a cigarette since it arrived, I'm loving it and would even go so far as to sat I prefer vaping to smoking!
I have 17 Benson & Hedges Gold sitting in the cupboard and haven't been tempted by them once! I smoked about 15 a day and have found the 18mg strength to be fine for me, though I do need a good 15 mins or so vaping first thing in the morning rather than a quick 5 minute ciggie. Most of the samples come in 18mg strength.
A popular tobacco favour is RY4 - not like B&H but a tobacco flavour with a sweet/caramel background. I bought a Bentley and Todges from Puffin and didn't like it much but by adding a good few drops of a fruit flavour it is much more palatable. I've been suprised by how much I enjoy the non tobacco flavours. I bought a menthol which was ok-ish and have since found a smoother menthol which I happily vape away on - and I hated menthol cigarettes!

Just rinse it out Do you have to make sure it is completely dry afterwards? |

Generally it's recommended to avoid Coffee and Menthol flavours in dripping attys as it's difficult to get the flavour out. Was just a background coffee flavour but as I detest coffe I noticed it straight away. What I mean is when trying out different flavours in the atty, do you have to keep vaping them until they're all gone or if you have one vape and really don't like it, is there another way to get rid of the juice in your atty before you can try another flavour? |

Got my atty today too.
Suprised at how many vapes you get from 3 drips.
Q - If I drip in something I don't like (put one in that was too much coffee for me) how do I get rid of it? Do you have to keep vaping til it's all gone? Or should I rinse it out and leave the atty to dry?
