Are all 510 PCC's created equal?

[JustSayHuh]

I am not really happy with my 510 pcc. The lid has already bent a little bit and the button on the side is way too easy to press, resulting in my battery popping out of the case frequently. Are they all made by the same company and use the same design? Or are there any sturdier built models?
I need the pcc for Manual batteries only.

Thanks!

Unless someone snuck a new design in that I missed, everyone I have seen to date has been the same with the exception of brand labels printed on some of them.

I think most of us with 510's are awaiting one that will hold a fully assembled 510 also, but we aren't holding our breath for it 8-o

Ah, disappointing But thank you for the quick response!

I actually have two to compare. My blue one from Eastmall.net and a black one that my supplier provided.

Both are identical in appearance, size and shape. Both seem to be made of the same gauge aluminum (and have not had any problems with either of them bending).

The only discernible difference is that Eastmall's lid release button is rounded and easier to push. My supplier's PCC is a flat round button and has more resistance before releasing the lid.

So, aside from minor differences, I would say that they are both identical in quality and that I would suspect all other 510 PCCs to be equally similar. Hope this helps!

I have one and its giving some fits but nothing major. The thing that annoys me to death is it LAUNCHES my batteries out of the thing when the lid pops up.

Take it with a grain of salt, but I've been looking at suppliers and for what I've seen there are half dozen suppliers making PPCs, and maybe a dozen building 510s. And they don't seem to be licensed manufacturers but copycats. I wouldn't be astonished to find 510s and PCCs of different quality on the market.

They are all the same, rebranding is provided when purchasing in quantity. There may be a knock-off or two out there, but for the most part, they are all JOYE products, just with custom colors/artwork/etc.

I meant chinese suppliers (factories) not western distributors. Ruyan for example is trying to bring some to justice. As for Joyetech products there are factories that make and sell 510s and PCCs and that don't seem to be in relation with them at all. They don't have the same MOQ, not the same piece/month capacity. But anytime a product becomes popular, a few regional factories seem to manufacture it without being related to the trademark owner.
