Came across these and thought I'd share. There's a company called MTM who makes ammo boxes for various sized cartridges. You can check out there website at www.ammoboxes.com. First, a few size comparisons:

L-R: 9mm, e-Health cart, .38 Special, DSE901 cart w/cap.

The e-Health cart is about the same diameter of a real cigarette filter, and fits a little loose in a factory 9mm cartridge slot, the 901 cart fits perfectly in the 9mm slot, but it's quite a bit taller so you might need a .38 box just for the height. I don't have any of the larger carts for testing, so your mileage may vary. I placed a small order off the MTM website this morning ($15 minimum) for a variety of their clear smoke 50-round cases. Anyways, here's a few pics from their website to look at:

Hope you find this useful. I plan on using these to keep track of the carts my wife and I use. Full carts on one side, collected emptys on the other. ;)

Conversely, if you have a friend who shoots handguns he'll probably give you his empty factory trays fro free. :)

Now I want a PV revolver. One that changes carts after I am done with one just by pulling a trigger. Forget that how about a semi-automatic.

I can see it now, "NO ma'am, its not a gun its a personal vaporizer. No its not a cigarette either!!!"

At least that way we can have really cool holsters.

Hey, that's a great idea. Rotating cart chambers? Maybe that will be my first mod.:D

I love the ammo box idea....hubby is a hunter, so I'm off to pick through his stuff. I'll just put his bullets or shells or whatever they are in a ziplock bag. :p

Thanks Banjo!

Awesome find, don't know if 401 carts will fit in something like this. Guess I'm stuck using empty Snus tins to keep things organized.

Got my 401 yesterday and a small order from MTM:

If you're looking for a dedicated 401 cart case, you probably want the 50-9 case. It closes nice and tight (but not TOO tight) and doesn't rattle when shaken. If you want something that will handle the 401 AND 901 carts, go for either the P50-38 or PS-3. They rattle a bit but don't fall out of their holes when closed, but you will have to put your 901 carts in upside-down (otherwise the tight fit will pull off the cover cap).

Keep in mind they have a $15 minimum, and shipping will run you about 5 bucks.

Funny you should say that, as I was just eyeballing this little gem on thinkgeek dot com... just don't know if I like the price... but man, I can totally see me with all my vaping gear, tools and juices in this thing...

Best idea ever. I've got the marketing pitch for it!

"Tired of carrying around extra carts, only to lose them? Try the *insert company/model name here* revolver! Carries six carts right on your e-cig. When a cart goes dry, just turn the cylinder for a fresh one."

Maybe we can get Vince Offer to do the infomercial. :lol:

I love that hip holster at think geek, and would totally wear it for hiking, or outtings, but there's no way i'd wear that thing on a daily basis


I was just looking at your quit meter....man you must have got cigarettes pretty cheap....13 days only save 9.00 ....less than a buck a pack or were you a very light smoker...here in MASS....it's about 7.00 per pack....1 pack a day?
