    Default Found some options for desktop cartomizer holders!

    As I am rather new, here, this may be idiotic - but - have been searching for a desktop cartomizer holder, to keep my cartomizers upright. I like to dabble with a lot of different flavors, and keeping them in little zip-lock bags does not work very well.

    I saw some lovely wooden ones, online, but it looked like most of them were out of stock. Would not test tube holders work? Some are not very tall, and for my clear cartomizers that screw onto my battery, they look like they would be perfect!

    I need something with a 15mm hole, and I saw several test tube holders online, that have every appearance of meeting my needs. There were also a few other things that might work, but looks like the test tube holders would be perfect, as long as the height span is correct.

    So,...is that a viable option, or not?

    I don't see why this would not work. I am actually using a styrofoam testtube holder that came with our last delivery of lab draw tubes (I am a nurse) and it works out perfect for me. Keeping filled cartos and clearos in there, ready for use. I would definitely say, yes, that would work......

    As I mentioned, I did see some online - made from wood. Not many available. As a "jack-of-many-trades", I could make myself one, but too busy with our other businesses. Dandafixr - you could probably have a booming business, making them.

    Thank you all for the replies. Glad to hear about the styrofoam test tube holder working. I thought the idea would work. When researching the idea, I saw many different diameter sizes listed, in millimeters. For my purposes, the 15 mm would be ideal.

    I have ammo holders, but we already use them. All sorts of good ideas for holders out there...I thought about drill bit holders that were made for large-sized bits, and lipstick tube holders, and magic marker holders, etc. Most pen holders do not have a large enough diameter to be useful.

    Just some thoughts. Some bright entrepreneur needs to grab the idea, and go into production!

    Great post! Having gone from 808 cartos to 510 recently, I had to come up with something just for filling them to get them ready for tanks. I've been using everything from skinny shot glasses to an ammo box. I have a few friends that work in a hospital so I'll ask about the styrofoam test tube holder.

    The entrepreneur in me has some wheels spinning in its head now too.....

    Would getting a small block of wood and drilling some 15mm holes work also? Just a thought. That way you could sand, stain and finish it to look really nice!

    And the ammo case would be a great way to travel with them (I'm heading to Atlanta Week after next and was dreading trying to carry all of my stuff, lol).

    Kay1959 - That would work, and I could do it, because I built my own bed, among many other things. I just don't have the time, but someone here on the forums could certainly take the idea and take off with it. The three that I saw online, were lovely. The ones that would have worked, are currently out of stock.

    Someone could get really creative, here, and make them in different colors, with places to put the name of the e-liquid contained in the cartomizer, a personalized plaque option - and so on...
