Betterbait sent me a couple samples that I got in the mail today:

I can NOT cut a straight line to save my life....but, I was able to measure and cut the skin fairly straight actually LOL It's nice that you can leave the backing on and see what area you like best before you cut. I put mine on my XL eGo batt - so I only had to cut off maybe 1/4" - 1/2" on 2 sides.

The colors are amazing - very vibrant and crisp. The design is on the home page, it's the bubbly blue fractal one. I'll try to get pics, as soon as I can get the laptop off my son, it's the only one that can read the HCSD card from my camera.

The skin came in a plastic bag, along with a nice long clear strip to cut and place over the seam. It also came with an easy to follow instruction sheet.

Looks great and easy to use - I'm looking forward to seeing how long it lasts! I have some other designs in mind, so I may be ordering some more soon!

    I second what neekyme said. Very nice art work, the pics of my roses look great on the vinyl. I was so focused on getting it right that I didn't plan very well on how to best situate and center the rose. Still think it looks pretty good and I should be better when I do the 2nd one.

    Thank you so much, I love them and recommend highly. Where else can you get custom designs for so low a price???

    Here is my first attempt:

    Thanks for the feedback. After reading both of your posts and putting on a bunch of them myself for pictures on the site. I think an exact size may be needed to do photos or non repeating images in order to make it as easy as possible.

    Hey Neekyme..........you said you put it on an XL bat? What final size did you come up with. I know a 2x2 would be close for a reg ego bat but not sure on yours. As I get perfect fits for each PV it will make it that much easier putting them on. I do have to stress however that it must overlap a little bit on the wrap and a clean surface is key.

    So if any of you have a different model than the Ego and want to give it a try I can do a Free Skin plus an extra to get your assistance in getting an exact fir for as many PV's as possible. Just drop by the site and send an email. If you are the first to ask for a specific model PV then yours will be FREE. I may have to ask $1 for shipping but we will see.

    Yes, I think paying shipping is more than fair. You should not be out for that when gifting the skins. Still waiting to hear from you if you want to try a drip tip.

    I am going to put the 2nd skin on a mini xhaler. I will let you know how that turns out.

    I think the only problem with how the pics align is when you have a very different image/background on one end. I believe when I use the close up of the rose, it will work out well. Not so much when I used the one that had a dark part, green part and the rose. Hope that makes sense.

    If I remember correctly, it's 2" around, and 2 and 5/8" long - I'll check and edit this as soon as I find the measuring tape again lol

    Here are photos of mine finally - I lucked out, as when the ends overlapped, from a distance you can't tell there's a seam there. If you look closely though, you can see that the design doesnt match up exactly...but it's not a problem with a fluid design - I could see larger designs being obvious though.

    Seriously great idea! and great prices! This should do well.
    The only dead batteries I have - and have several - are of mega 510s. Would anyone want to decorate those??

    I have an Xhaler, and a Saber touch coming this week. I'm already thinking of heart and/or music designs. :D

    Need to find my measuring tape.....

    Thanks everyone and if you have any dead batteries to send just PM for address.

    Here are some new Tribal designs and I now have Exact fits for Ego, 510 manual and auto. When ordering, make sure you put a note if you have any of those 3 models. If not, the generic size will be sent and it will need trimming. Once I get exacts for other PV's it will make it much easier for you to apply without hassle, so my offer still stands on Free Skins for the first person with each model to help out.
