510 pocket clip - e-cigarette-forum.com • The place for electronic cigarette reviews, news and chat

Not sure if this is worthy but I was trying to find a clip so I could put my 510 in my shirt pocket like a pen. I took the cap off of the first pen in site and slipped it on and it fit perfect.

For the record the pen is a 'uni-ball Vision Elite' and it even has a little window in the cap that lines up perfectly with the blue light.

How cool is that?

Hmm if I had seen that an hour ago I might not have ended up with this thin bottle of hand sanitizer from CVS that I have planned for that same purpose.

Very cool.

If that hadn't fit.... go to the local hardware store and look for their cheap telescoping tire gauges. They typically run about $2. They are the same diameter as the 510 and the pocket clip fits perfect.

P.S. People often get better performance from their PV (510 etc.) if they keep it in the pocket with the mouthpiece facing up. It helps the cart drain into the atty.

I find that to be true and I also just flick the end of my wrist like with a thermometer and it will bring any excess juice to the atomizer as well. I primarily use a GreenCig now so the playing with the carts is a thing of the past for me, except when in a vaping frenzy I drain both batteries!

P.S.S. If you're going to put the entire "pen cap" over the end of your PV (as BriDog implied), do NOT do this with automatic batteries! Putting the cap over the LED end of an automatic battery can actually cause the battery to "come on" and it will burn out your atty.

BriDog67 · 10-22-2009, 10:44 PM

Yeah I should clarify, It's a 510 with a manual battery.

I don't think it stays in my pocket long enough to settle in any direction at this point.

I use a 'Phillies' cigar tube for my manual 510 and it works great in the pocket-(keeps the button from getting pushed) Only downside is that there's no clip. As far as just putting a clip on the unit itself-just go with a clip from a tire gauge like Scottbee suggested, or lots of pens have that same type of snap on clip too..Just clip it the bottom portion of the cart (closest to the atomizer) and you are good to go...

The Perfect Fit 510 Case... for about $1.50

I use this not only to carry my 510 but also to clean my attys.

Hi rhoneil
I second your choice. I have been using the sanitizer pen and have found it to work great. I have to wear a dress shirt everyday. The leakage around the cart would stain my shirt. Now it is not a problem. Also the clear color has not raised any questions.
