Default crystal tipped battery

.wysiwyg { BACKGROUND: #ffffff; FONT: 10pt verdana, geneva, lucida, 'lucida grande', arial, helvetica, sans-serif; COLOR: #000000 } P { MARGIN: 0px } .inlineimg { VERTICAL-ALIGN: middle } Ladies, this was soooo easy. Don't waste your money on the dlight diamond tipped PV. This is my 501. I think you can use any PV.
You don't even have to buy a bedazzler kit. Just buy a packet of the refill crystals.

1. Pop off plastic cap

2. Bend prongs to fit in the end of your pv.


3. with a small brush or toothpick apply a thin layer of jewelers glue around the edge of the crystal.


3. Insert jewel from the Bedazzler kit!


I did this in about 5 min. Nothing could be easier!

Default easy

It was so easy I couldn't believe it. The crystal fit right in! A .5 cent crystal and they are charging like $25 bucks extra for it. Of course I am vaping champagne with it.

The refill kit comes with all the sizes? Found a kit for 4.99 (w/o shipping - shipping is going to kill me LOL)

Bedazzler Refill Clear

I'd--in a perfect world--like to find the perfect size for my 510 battery and just get that size but I'll go with whatever works at the moment.

P.S.- anyone know an easy method to getting a graphic on the rounded surfaces of batteries/attys? Printing, stenciling, embossing it's not an issue. I just want something that will last the life of the piece to help distinguish my e-cig from my wifes. (This rhinestone being the first step.)

Thanks for the walkthrough Vconrad! This is going to be a new "must have" mod for many users and it's so easy!

ok what happened here? You replaced the ash cap with a bedazzle-dodad? Can you get a closer up photo by chance?

Edit - removed my previous post. Found out the the actual "Bedazzler" size is 34. You can purchase the stones and settings in the colors you want here: Kit Kraft Rhinestones and Settings

The really sad thing about all this research is that I've tried to purchase these from about 10 sites and none of them ship to S. Korea. I'm getting a bit ticked off at companies that don't want to make money on the expatriate market.

Yes, but I still think it looks gorgeous!
