I have, until now, been using an old semi rigid sat nav case for taking my vaping kit when I'm out and about. But after trawling ebay/Amazon for hours on end I had a flash of inspiration and found this: And I did this with packaging material we had at work: And if 2 batteries are needed instead of 2 bottles I did this: And if more stuff is needed I can do this: Sorted! Its a 2oz tobacco tin from eBay, which including p+p was £4.74. I paid a premium for the pictured lid as plain ones are a lot less. I really wanted a hinged lid, but wanted this pic more than that. There are 1oz tins available too if smaller is needed, but not all of them fit the Ego/Riva battery. I now have all I need for a night out, which slips in my pocket and which I don't have to worry about any damage being caused. Brilliant!

I like that idea lot, you have answered a question I was going to ask anyway about how people carried their equipment about. I have been looking at the soft tobacco pouches but to be honest I would only take my riva out so this would be an ideal solution!!

Not sure about the 18650 (or other variant) in there Giz Any risk of it shorting out?

I agree about shorting dangers and only put it in there for the pic as it was close to hand. It has been a subject I've constantly looked at since vaping and using the sat nav case wasn't practical as it doesn't fit in jeans/trouser pockets, and anything inside is free to move around. The packaging I used is a semi-rigid sponge and I used a craft knife to (easily) cut it. The cut outs are just slightly smaller than the bottles & batteries so everything fits in snug and won't move around. Obviously the LT is too long for the tin, but perfect for the Ego's.

Why is the battery in danger of shorting out in there? Top and bottom of battery touching metal creating a circuit.
