Thumbs up New case idea? A dart case!

I had a brainstorm a while back while surfing around looking for things to use as an e-cig case... a dart case! I've never seen this idea mentioned before. Here is a company that produces a lot of interesting cases:

GLD Products, Inc.: DartsDart Cases

I personally ordered the GLD Casemaster Super Bee case from this location:

Casemaster Dart Cases

I'm not a dart player so I don't know about darts, but this case is for Bee darts which are shorter than normal darts. This case works perfectly for my Janty Dura-C. I like a case as small as possible that can hold what I need.

Size comparison to cell phone:


Inside of case holding 3 assembled Dura-C's, 4 carts, 2 3ml juice bottles:


The right side of the case has 3 elastic loops to hold the e-cigs at the middle and 3 non-elastic pockets at the bottom (which are a tight fit for the battery, but don't need to be used). This case does not have belt loop or clip, but fits well in my pocket.

This is a great case if you want to carry your e-cig assembled... I wouldn't use if for my Pilot M401 because I carry that unassembled and use a slight smaller memory card case for that. The larger cases might be usable for longer e-cigs like the penstyle. Many different and interesting styles of cases available...

Great idea. I played darts on a league years ago and just pulled out my old sets of darts. The cases look like they would work real well except I can't figure out what to put in the slots for the flights.

Well, I've got carts in those slots, but I can only use 2 of the 4 slots due to thickness...

What a great idea! How long are the Janty Dura-C assembled? I am currently using 901s and would like to compare that...

Thanks.

Assembled the Dura-C is 4.5 inches long or 115 mm. My understanding is that a 901 is 119 mm long so it seem like it should fit fine...

You are truly a Rising Force rsngfrce! I was out doing errands on Saturday, looked at USB drive cases, cell phone cases etc., nothing really just right.

I was just sketching out a cardboard slide-tray thingie to use in a plastic cigarette box 'bout 1/2 hour ago. Frustrating but I was going to make it work! Came upstairs and found your post and all I can say is thank you for your find

Thank you for this!! I have ordered 1 for 901 and 1 larger one but the same style for 801. I'll let you know how they fit...

I've seen some cool-looking cases but not a whole lot with belt clips. I'm actually looking for a way to mod one of my old leather (analog) cigarette cases to fit all my RN4081 gear. I went to the trouble of making them over the last few years and I would hate for them to go to waste at this point...

I need to make an insert in the style of those green and white "Health E-Cigarette" boxes.
