Tips for carrying e-cigs

[Monroe]

I use a plain jane glasses case made of hard plastic. It has a rubbery foam on both top and bottom which helps keep stuff from clanking around. I'm able to easily fit a mini, a pen, an extra battery for each, a 15ml bottle of e-liquid, and a few extra carts w/ no problems

That's whay I do, but my lanyard is wearing out. Con anyone suggtest where I can find another one? E-cig.com isn't an option.

Hi Leaford, I use them for scuba diving. You can get them from any dive shop. Good old eBay has tons as well. HTH

My solution is this a bug box (about the size of an altoids tin for my goodies and a Maglight AAA flashlight case I can put in on my belt or safety pin it to my suspenders. I got the Mag Light Holster at Sportsman Warehouse on Sale for $2.50. Bug Box was 1.50 at the smoke shop.

What to Look for - Get the AAA size for just a pen style cig.The AAA size will hold two pens side by side if you got the AA holder it may be able to hold a few carts and some juice too.

Happy Vap'in

A Scuba lanyard? Good thinking, but I don't think it would hold an e-cig very well.

I've just got my first e-cig (901 from Smokester, it's brill) and have used the rubber/foam insert in the cardboard box in an old hard-shell sunglasses case.

I had to cut the edges of the foam insert a bit to make it a snug fit, but now its great.

Because the glasses case is quite deep, I can get two complete e-cigs in a 1 hole slot, and two spare batteries in there too if I need to.

Also, theres room for cartridges. Very smart black little Gucci case, looks the biz!

i too hesitate to carry around my e-cig, fear of me breaking it and stuff, but im still learning! im trying to search thru the forum to help me out on things too. just sent out two pms to other colleagues on here (so sorry, cant post a new thread yet for some reason), to assist me.

anyone got any ideas on a smaller thin case? i was thinking the altoid case, but its a tad bulky. i know its about the size of a pack of cigs, but was hoping for something smaller.

thank you in advance!

There's a few thread floating around about ecig cases that might be helpful. Also, can't you post a new thread in the new members forum? Members here do read those.

If there are still suppliers around that order things (anything) from e-cig.com china, they can order lanyards from there for you, and you can buy it from the supplier. But it should be real easy to make a lanyard too of course... either from any sewable cloth on a sewingmachine, or use plastic, skai, or anything else that is pliable and glueable, and glue a lanyard together with kit/glue that remains plyable?

Lanyards can be purchased from office supply stores. I use one to carry my e-cig around. The battery end just fits into the clasp and a rubber band around the battery keeps it from falling off.

Thanks

Good quality sandisk USB memory keys (like the titanium) come with a very nice braided lanyard that includes a quick-release clip. As an added bonus you get a good quality USB storage device with your lanyard...

I use a "Case Logic 2 Capacity USB Drive Shuttle". it holds 2 bats and 2 ats with cart and it has a nice clip for your belt-loop or key chain. you have to dismantle the cig but i play alot of pool so i enjoy the braking and assembling.

I went to Dollar Tree yesterday. I found a neoprene case for a compact digital camera. It has a loop on the back to put it on a belt and it fits my fully assembled 901 beautifully and snugly. The 901 is just a little longer than the case is designed for, but not as thick, so the pliable, stretchable neoprene makes it possible - I mean to say that the same thing in leather would not work. I am currently using it to carry my 901 with a USB passthrough battery attached to a 4AA battery pack I modded for it. It fits great and has some padding to it. When I want a puff, I simply pull out the cig, puff away, then slide it back in. I have to say though, it was more convenient on the armband for my MP3 player than on my belt. I was better able to access it there, rather than trying to fight to see around my fat belly to fiddle with it on my belt.

I work in marine construction so I needed to keep my unit safe and dry.I got a clear Lexain tube just a little bit bigger than my cig. Got some caps for both ends, took some foam and made a stop at the bottom so when i put my cig in it stays in tight.I only carry my pen with me cuz of all my other tools and stuff I'm working with. It works great it floats is water tight it is pretty much crush proof,and it stays clean.I just pull it out flip the cap and vape without this case my cig wouldn't made it thru a single day

I use one of these: 89 Eyeglass Cords - Eyeglass Chains & Cords - Peepers Fun Reading Glasses. Hundreds of styles of designer reading glasses, reading sunglasses, Bifocal sunglasses, rhinestone reading glasses, and colorful eyeglass chains and cases. My female roommate has a pretty beaded one. The little rubber things just stretch over the battery and fit nice and snug.

When I'm using my usb pass-through I use one of these: Shirt Clip I keep a portable power pack: Kensington - Portable Power Pack for Select Mobile Devices - Black - K38021 in the pocket of my pants and I clip the shirt clip just a little higher than where my PV hangs from the neckchain. This helps to ensure that if the wire of the pass-through gets caught on anything, it will pull the clip rather than the delicate wire where it enters the end of the battery.

Hope this helps!

plastic cigar tube works for me ....

If you just want to carry the cig in your pocket, try going to;

Pencil Things: Pencils, Erasers, School Supplies, Pencil Grips & more and click on "clips & Pulls"

They have all sorts of things to carry pencils, from pocket clips to those retractable strings.

I am guessing Battery end down while carrying it in your pocket or whatever.
Makes sence if the fluid needs to flow TO the atomizer to keep it moist. At night I agree, take it apart and laying it down would be fine. Just My opinion so far.

I carry mine battery end up. My reasoning is there is only one part of the cig that can be harmed by liquid and that's the battery. I don't want liquid being gravity fed into the battery as I move around.

I carry mine in a smallish black leather make-up bag, so i have room for cigs, spare batterries and atomisers, juice and a couple of carts, at first i bought an ecig case off ebay, its ok just for the ecig and battery, but i prefer to carry my "just in case" essentials in the make-up case.
