Carrying cases

[strayling]

Hi all. I just got my first e-cig - a Janty Dura starter set which so far I'm loving. At the moment I'm using an old cigarette box with a few bits of paper for padding to carry around a couple of batteries and atomisers and three carts. I plan to start using fluid to refill the carts as soon as the postman delivers.

My n00b question: what do people use to carry around all this stuff? I've seen the Janty recharger case, but that's a bit more than I want to spend right now.

I actually use a portable hard drive case from Target to lug all my gear around.

It's only about 6"x4". One side is a net pocket, where I keep a small ziplock of cartridges and a few 15ml bottles of various juices.

On the other side, there's an elastic strap that is meant to hold the hard drive in place. While it's a bit too deep to hold the thin e-cigs in, by themselves, I normally care around a few tissues and a hankerchief for refilling jobs, along with a set of tweezers.

With those clothes and tissues underneath, the strap will hold the e-cig down firmly. You can always fashion a few pieces of modeling foam into a custom bedding, that would fit nicely, as well.

When I want to have something smaller, I use one of the smaller cigarette-style cases I picked up on ebay for about $5. This merely holds 2 batteries, 2 atomizers, and a cartridge or two.

That sounds useful. Whatever I settle on, I want to avoid having things rattle around inside and break. Thanks for the tip.

I use a USB case I got from Wal-Mart for less than $5.00.

Amazon.com: Caselogic JDS-6 USB Drive Shuttle 6-Capacity (Black): Electronics

I am now always on the lookout for a cheap-o manicure or men's shaving kit like this though...
Amazon.com: 11 Piece Men's Travel Manicure/Shave Set with Mach 3 Razor in Black Leather Case: Health & Personal Care

Up to now, still unwilling to spend that much money on that kit when all I really want is the case. Now, everytime I'm at walgreens or target or whatever, I hunt down the manicure aisle hoping to find what I'm looking for...

Hope that helps

It does, thanks Can't believe I didn't think of a cheap manicure set case already. The elastic loops for holding all the bits and pieces sound like just the ticket.

I agree... I love the manicure set idea. I have one that I'm going to have to try out when I get off work. Thanks for the idea!

Since I wear glasses, I always have a few extra glasses cases floating around. I just took some foam and cut out space for my M401, extra battery, atomizers and space for a 10ml bottle of juice. Works like a champ.

Let us know how it works out... Have yet to find one that is inexpensive enough to warrant buying it and not knowing how I like it

My Day Case

Very nice. I think that's about what I'm looking for.

I am using my make-up brush case. It holds all I need for a days vape.

Hello,,
new to e-cigarettes,,
i got some hybrid pilot kits and a case for them but i didnt like the way they had to go in the case unscrewed and in pieces.
i wanted something small that would fit in my pocket so i went to best buy and found the perfect case.
its a usb lowerpro storage case that holds 2 pilots and some extra cartrideges or atomizers.
wont hold liquid bottles but its perfect other then that.
the only thing i had to do to it was cut out a middle part of it that had extra usb pockets.

fits in a front pocket and holds the small and longer longer pilots without taking them apart.

id ad a picture if i could figure out how,,lol

 

[Obi Wan]

that was easy,, just clicked the paperclip that said attachments and browsed for some pictures of the case.
and it added the pics to the reply !

Might be a good candidate for an Altoids box mod...would probably need the unit to be in pieces though.

Maybe some neoprene foam as an inset to stop things rattling around.

Ritalee,

That little Case Logic case that you use, what is if intended for? If we were to look in a store for one, what department would we look? I really like that.

Thanks.

Terry,

Got mine at Wal-Mart in the electronics section. It is meant to hold USB flash or jump drives (or whatever it is you call them)... They were hanging on a rack with all the USB drives

HTH
