Default Ideas for Battery Cases

Sorry if this has been done before. I would like to start a thread for different style cases that can be purchased at local stores. I myself am always looking everywhere i go for a new case, it's an obsession lately. I built my most recent 901 mod from a $4 flexible head led light. Picked it up from BigLots. My appologies for poor quality pic.

BTW this will fit a 18650 battery!

Great thread idea. There are a ton of good-looking cases out there that can be easily modded into a battery pack for the atomizer of your choice. Here are a few examples...

A basic madog magnum mod for a penstyle atomizer



Another flashlight case (pete, recently completed one)



Your basic JuicyBox with and LED based on a post by Jaxxx



The VapeSnake is a gutted Kensington Flylight. Only nitewriter has any idea how well it works

I prefer the box mods. I am always checking out stuff that takes size AA batteries. If it has a kill switch and isn't huge or expensive, I start imagining how I might put it together. Dollar Tree is a favorite place for me to get creative.

Default Thanks Sun

Good idea it could get lost in the shuffle, had to look around for it at first thought maybe my BlackBerry screwed up and deleted the thread.

My local Target store has some Coleman hand held fans that use 2 AA batterys for under 3 bucks (camping/ sporting goods area). I picked up three thinking about using two rechargeable batteries in parallel for extra life. I was unable to find them on line for reference so not sure all stores have them.

I'm also saving and looking at a metal cigar tube, it looks very promising. Stripped of paint and polished (aluminum) it should look really nice with a 901 atty stuck in the rounded end.

Post Lo Fi Pocket Cap/Holder

Not much to this one, but the price was right and it keeps it in my shirt pocket.
