Where can I get the E cig foam inserts from?

[No burn baby]

Hi all! Another of my "where can I?" questions, forgive me!

I am hoping to get hold of some of the foam substance you find in new E cig packages which are cut to fit the ecig and spare battery. I wondered if any of you guys knew what this stuff was called? I'm going to search for some on Ebay but want to find this particular squishy rubbery foam as it works so nicely for e cig storage. Thanks!!

Arts and crafts store perhaps.......Upholstery shop.....I think it's just a closed cell foam....You could always find some guys who do chilled water pipe insulation and make them give you a little of the really good black stuff.

I don't necessarily suggest you order from them, owing to some problems actually receiving items, but e-cig.com do sell the inserts.

Thank you guys!

I think what you're after is the same stuff you find in heavy duty camera cases. Closed cell foam doesn't make for a very good packaging foam. It usually doesn't have a very good memory (return to original shape) and it may grip contents too well making e-cigs, etc hard to remove.

I've been scooting around to find packaging foam to pack into my own custom e-cig storage both for a home and travel solution. Here's one of many UK online sellers (eFoam) of the packaging foam used in camera cases.

Go to a Fabric store and ask for Brand: Pellon - Type: Thermo Lam same type of material that is used in Hot pads - Or I guess you could just go buy a hot pad - I bought 1" off the bolt for 17 cents 54" long enough material probably for the rest of my life.
