Nope it's a rock solid performer. It's a funny thing to me getting stares and
questions from people who are half my age and supposedly hipper than I
in southern California of all places.
I thought this place was hip, guess I was wrong.
No I haven't bought from Freedom Smokes so I have no idea, but don't doubt they're just fine. I bought my first nic from RTS when they were having a sale. Since then I've gotten 2 orders for 1000 ml of 60 mg PG to be stashed in the freezer and plan to order from them again. I have no idea about the taste because I dilute it with VG and flavors. It arrives crystal clear and I've had no reason to not like it, but I haven't had it tested to see if the 60 mg is accurate. When I did my research on the ecf threads about nic RTS was listed as one of the places that was trusted as accurate. They must run to the post office 10 minutes after they get the order because I've had shipment notices within a couple hours of placing the order. They have blue glass bottles that are fine. Amber bottles are fine as well. The idea is to restrict light and air so I don't know if it really makes a difference what color it is except for what you like the look of. Don't know if you've seen the posts by Kurt. He's a chemist and active in ecf. I think it might have been him who said he puts his in the freezer and just sticks it in a sock.
Here's an ecf link where people are discussing RTS nic. http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/forum/diy-e-liquid/371735-rts-nic.html There are others. I know that at one point Kurt had tested RTS nic and found it to be accurate, but that was then. I have no reason to doubt them now. I wouldn't know how to test the accuracy of what arrives at my door. Also, they offer a 20% discount for a first order so that may be a consideration.

@ FranC - Who is ECX???
@ MikeE Thanks for the batt/charger info, the Provari v2.5 info and a good laugh! With all my twists, kr808's and soon to be new mod(s) with lots of batts I will be able to power the house + the Vegas strip!
@ JanetH Thanks and also for the info that you posted later with the nic liquid from RTS. Good stuff I have actually started a Word doc to copy and paste info to. I can never ever remember what thread or what page I saw info on and I already have way TOO many bookmarks.
@ Kat56 PM sent thanks for the pics! Looks like a nice rig!
@ Old C - Being hip is a state mind and not being afraid to try new things. I spent several years in the high desert and know where you are coming from!

Lol.
Funny thing is I went to downtown Fullerton last night and didn't see one, not one single person
vaping and I was the oldest one around. Lots of ciggies and cigars but no vaping of any sort.
Not even the so-called hipsters!
ECX is a vendor. I buy most of my nic and flavors from them. ecigexpress
20% off at RTS, coupon code: firstorder
Can this be used on your second and third order too? Would that be cheating?

For those of you trying to compare nic vendors there is an excellent thread
http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/forum/diy-e-liquid/298547-nicotine-comparisons.html
Then in post 192 Cool Breeze made the comparisons into an awesome chart

I got the Vivi Nova, finally! I had it delivered to my office since I am there more than I am home. Yesterday morning the USPS tracking website said it was in my town so I went to the office and waited for it for over 2 hours, I saw the mailman pass my office with nothing so I went home defeated. This morning I looked at the USPS site again and it said that it had been delivered 10 minutes after I left, so I want and got it.
The vendor VaporBeasts sent a 30 ml filler bottle and a nice hand written note from Sue, welcoming me to "The Beast"
The filler bottle is the perfect thing for my wife; it's really easy for her to fill her clearos with the needle tip and it looks different than my filler bottles so she won't accidentally fill with peppermint and get all upset with me... again...
I got the Vision Vivi Nova. It is beautiful and doesn't look silly on my Twist 1100. It filled easily with no mess using my filler bottle with a stubby tip. I put a drop down the center hole just to make sure it was primed well and...
OMG
Lots and lots of great tasting vapor with TH to die for. I'm still looking for my sweet spot but it seems to be right about 4.2 - 4.4v on the 2.4 ohm head. I tried my peppermint first and it is delicious, I look forward to trying my cinnamon!!!!
Thank you for recommending this atty to me. It is so much better than the cartos and clearos I have been using, both for taste and vapor production.

Thanks bunches Janet. I liked what I read on the thread and what I saw over at RTS. They the least expensive glass bottles I've seen.
Woke with a new problem. I have a cat so yesterday I tried vaping 100% VG and 70 VG 30% distilled water. I woke this morning with the most phlegm I've had since I began vaping. It was very reminiscent of my smoking days cleaning out my chest in the morning though it didn't take as long to do and all came up but I had to use the same cough force to get it up. Normally I vape 33% VG and have never had this problem. Sure a little phlegm from time to time but I think its mostly due to post nasal drip because it really only happens when I've had a drippy nose. I was wet and misty enough to make my coat wet when I came back from my walk so I suppose it could have been that but today I'm going to only vape 33% and see what happens in the morning.
If you have cats and VG is a problem, what do you do? I have a very persistent one who loves being near me and will not take "no" for an answer.

So not like I have years of experience but I do have cats and they have been bathing in the PG vapor anytime they sit with me for the past 8 months. I use 50/50 pg vg in my DIY juice. They are fine.
Ah thanks a million, I didn't know there was a difference.
My DIY stuff came in and I'll be ordering a larger amount
of nic in the future. RTS looks like a winner.
I guess you could if you used another address, but I guess it would be cheating. At Christmas we wanted to buy 3 Kindle Paperwhites for our 3 kids. Website said only 2 per household. So Mike tried to buy the 3rd one using a different credit card and the site wouldn't let him, even though it was to be delivered to another state. We think it was because they recognized the same billing address.
I'm pretty sure RTS tells you right on their site about the 20% off on your first order.
OC you should take a peek at Wizard Labs. I have been using them for several months their prices and service can not be beat.
That thread turned me on to them and I am very happy with them. In preparation for the zombie apocalypse I just bought a liter of 60mg nic from them including shipping it was $78. Plopped it right in the freezer.
