Altoids Tin What size and shape Altoids tin do people use? The ones I saw in the store looked too small. Do you have to remove the earpiece to make it fit?

The square tin provides a good fit, twist (but don't force) the earpiece towards the part that goes behind your ear (if you feel ANY resistance when you twist, you're twisting it the wrong way and will break the wires inside) and turn the mic to form an 'S' and it will fit nicely in the Altoids tin. Hope this helps. I think I could even get by with the smaller tin, but haven't tried it yet. I've only had the 510 for a couple of days and love it!

The Altoids gum tin is available here in central NJ and I will try it and let you know if it works. I wondered too but I'd only had the headset a couple of days and just now learned how to fold it!

The trick is in the folding...no need to be a bluetooth oragami master, but there is a technique to it as others have indicated. The foam idea also works well. I took some thin foam from something we bought, cut it to size, and used a little cheap spray adhesive to glue it in. Works like a charm! I also don't worry about someone breaking into my car to steal the adapter when I leave it there. Hey, it is only a box of Altoids, why break in? (big smile!)

The original rectangular tin that's been around for the longest. I see that the round is also 1.76, but I don't have one to try. It's probably not big enough in diameter. The headset takes up most of the square centimeterage (bad, i know, but inchage was too much) of the rectangular tin. I had wanted to see if the altoids gum tin would work but I can't find it locally.

I was a dunce and didn't figure it out right away, but it does fit in the standard Altoids tin. You don't have to remove the earpiece but you do have to swivel the earpiece/microphone so that an S is formed with the earpiece inside, touching where the back of your ear would normally be. There is enough clearance that it might rattle around a little, so I will be adding a layer of felt to the inside of the tin. I'm also going to make some other alteration to the tin so that I don't mistake it for just another box of Altoids!!!The standard size that I have in hand is 1.76 oz (original size).

Both the gum tin and the round one are too small for this headset. My local grocery store has all varieties and the original one is the one to go with, add a rubber band and it will be a little more secure in your shirt pocket.

That is tough question. I think it varies dependent on person. There are only three different sizes of snugs, and I am using medium size. It was hard to adjust and fit first time. Besides it hurts my ears after I used a little over an hour. If you put the earburds incorrectly, you won't get stereo (and good quality) sound. After I get used to using couple of weeks, however, they work fine for me. Since then, they don't fall out and hurt my ears.

Hi there. I'm one of the customers that have bought these. These earbuds are for the device itself, when worn in one ear. They fit very well.

You could have chosen a wrong size ear tip [the white plastic thing as described]; try the rest that supplied with the device, there are five of them in different sizes, one of those should fit you well

IMO....they should fit on most any size head/earphone that will fit inside or sit just outside of your ear hole.It might be a tighter fit and struggle with getting them on the head/earphone..but they should get on there and stay on there.I use them with JVC Gummy head/earphones(..NOT the JVC in ear earbuds.).

Not sure what model your talking about ? But these earbuds work with all my buds,and I have about 20 in different styles and brands ! Even use for my hearing aid ! what I like about these is the inner rubber that holds them on more tightly, and helps prevent wax build up on speaker ,highly recommend these !

My headset came with extra ear bud gels, a smaller size and a larger size. I put the larger size ear bud gel over the ear piece. Mine sits in the ear just fine, no twisting out. You can find the ear bud gels on Amazon. Hope this helps.

It should...I have a tin that is a little bit larger than an Altoids tin and it fits fine.

what is the size of the speaker under the bud tip? i lost one while travelling and am trying to get a replacement. love these headphones

try to find one the fits from any ear buds headphones, they all are pretty much standard size, other wise you can always contact the manufacturer, and let them know to send you another plastic piece, i'm sure they could help you too.

I have the same issue. I tried with several of my other ear hooks from other products such as Samsung but none seems to fit. Without the ear hooks these are useless as they keep falling off while jogging. Please let me know if you found a way to get an additional hook.

I believe it's the same size. As for the earpiece,try twisting them till they seem to be secure. Hope I was of some help! Good luck!

My problem with the earpiece is that it never feels secure in my ear -- if I walk with it in, it even falls out sometime. I have the smallest insert on the earpiece, but it doesn't help (note that I have the same problem with the standard iPod headphone) -- is there a solution for this?

I had to use the smallest earpieces for best fit. My left side is still a little too tight and sometimes comes loose when trying to get it out of my ear. Otherwise, reasonably comfortable. They have to be snug to seal and block outside noise.

Yes! You get an interchangeable set of earbuds so that you can get them to fit perfectly, but yes they do. They are the best earbuds I have invested in. I definitely recommend them! Oh!! And you get a clip so you can clip the wire to your clothes or something. That pesky wire can annoy me sometimes, so I saw that as a plus.

When I got mine, the buds that were on it fit well for me! They supplied with my ear buds a good selection of them ! Every set of ear buds that i have had were smaller and after time came loose! What I do to secure them better is moisten the buds and put my thumb on the rubber part on the casing that indicates right or left and wiggle them so they seat well! Movement of your head and the cord catching on something can cause the problem to I still have to adjust them here and there! I really don't think about it much! I just enjoy them . I hope this helps!!
