metal capsules

[matt_j]

I'm trying to find some metal capsules (waterproof) for my key chain and dog tag set. Any ideas where I can get them without spending an arm and a leg?

How big do you want them?

TADgear.com has a survival capsule about 4 inches long for about $30 (don't know about you though, I think that's an arm and a leg). Berkeley point have (had?) one too at about the same size.

We've had great experiences with the capsules sold by Bison Designs http://www.bisondesigns.com/catalog/key_accessories_85836_products.htm . The Scuba Tank is perfect for a single CR-2 or CR123A and the others I use for everything from pills to 'paper id' and cash storage.

Yeah TadGear is something I would love to have but it costs way to much.

I just want to fit about 4 pills in there.

Yeah Scuba looks like a perfect thing. Now 8 bucks for an item and 7 for shipping. Damn.

Your local "Drug store" like Walgreens should have a couple or three sizes for around $5.00. I bought one the other day that's big enough for holding a CR123A with room left over. They also had one that's just big enough for some Nitro pills.

Try these guys.

Sometimes big sporting goods stores stock those capsules, usally on racks with the eyeglass bands and caribiners. No shipping charges that way /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif

I bought the little capsule from The Sports Authority. [ QUOTE ]

I bought the Pill Fob - Magnum Pill Case and while I like it a lot, I have yet to find a use for it.

Oddly, it seems to be too small for my purposes. On the outside, it is about the same size as the aging plastic bottle I currently carry. The thickness of this pill fob's walls, however, make the inside a wee bit too small for my needs.

Oh, well. I'll just keep looking.

Craig, you can get a very similar stainless capsule at Walgreens for about $5 bucks. I've used it to carry some waterproof tinder and fishing line.

Cool. I'll keep Walgreens in mind. Thanks.
