Case Alternatives?

[cmbenavides]

Hello fellow Vapers!

I just recently got an Easy PV from CigEasy (KR808D-1) and am LOVING it. I plan on putting vendor, model, and liquid reviews later, but I started this thread for a different reason. Considering I just started, I'm not trying to sink too much money into this whole vaping thing until I know its something that I'll really stick too, sooooo I haven't bought a case yet. My question for you guys is: What have you or currently use to carry your pv's in that isn't a dedicated case?

I know they make some nice cases to hold batts and carts, but I want something simple and efficient that I can use in the meanwhile that'll also hold some batts and carts.

Thanks in advance and Happy vaping!

Pelican makes small divers cases that have their customizable foam inserts. The inserts can be cut/plucked to fit anything. These cases are 30 bucks or so new, but amazon/ebay/craiglists has had people selling them for 5-15 bucks.

Same concept, less money:
Buy/make the foam insert by using any foam and a good craft knife to cutout holes that fit your gear. Then use any of various size boxed cd cases or similar from office supply stores that you can get for a song. Flea markets are good venues to find these as well.

Ghetto rig:
Empty handi-wipe cases, again, different sizes depending on your needs. Also filled with foam that is form cut to your gear.

Many people use a Case Logic USB case: http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/forum/new-members-forum/28995-good-carrying-case.html#post448555

There's good pictures on that thread of someone using one.

It's pretty cheap and does double duty!

Works well until you're ready to upgrade!

NICE. All my cases and the ones that are already sitting on my top shelf in the computer room collecting dust.....never thought of them. Thanks Kristin, it's recycle time!!!

I use a regular sized eyeglass case which holds everything essential. You can also go to walmart and get a small case for reading glasses which will hold less but will fit 2 assembled ecigs depending on length. There are cheap cases all over the internet like flat clasp cases and a single assembled ecig cases but if you want to hold a little bit of everything, standard size eyeglass case will do, can get those anywhere.

You want inexpensive? Altoids tin and a kleenex. When you feel like you want a nice one visit kristen's site (post #3). Her cases are beautiful. I'd buy one if I used regular batteries. I don't think I could fit any of my mods in there. (hint hint, kristen)

I hope Kristin makes some boxes to fit your mods because you just made me go and purchase one after I read your post! Feeding my addiction. Humph.

Seriously, thanks for the tip, I'm sure it's going to be awesome.

What about these?

I own DSE901s and a DSE905 V1 (atty killer), a Riva (510),

That is what I used for a little while, my wife and son both wear glasses so we had extras around. It doesn't work for a box mod though.

I have a small camera case that I take if I'm going to be gone for a few days playing gigs. I put extra batteries and atties liquids and all kinds of stuff in their. I have gotten about half of the guys I play with on e-cigs as well as thier ladies so I never know when I'll need something extra.

Took a while to reply, but the winner is: Mistinthewoods!
I'm using an altoids case right now and its working perfectly. I can hold 2 batteries, 2 or 3 cartos, and even a 10 ml bottle of eliquid. I usually keep some hand sanitizer wipes in there too, just in case. Great suggestion, and thanks everybody else for the advice!
Happy Vaping!
