Battery storage accessory

[christylh8]

I just wanted to share that I found an excellent accessory to store my charged batteries. It helps me keep them in order and it also keeps them from touching.

It is a lipstick holder that I got from eBay at 6 Lipstick Holder Cosmetic Storage Rack Organizer Makeup Display Stand Clear 6105989168933 | eBay

Just a disclaimer, I make sure all my batteries are in pristine condition before I store them here.

Nice. So much better than lipstick. I hate lipstick and lipliner so much I pretty much have to be forced into it, for stuff like "getting married," and etc. I am all for any alternate uses of lipstick liner, although I am also pro anyone who enjoys wearing lipstick (especially that dude from the Rocky Horror Picture Show) wearing it provided they look like they're having a good time.

Works for me in Chrome, but I bet if you search eBay for lipstick storage you could find a ton.

Girl I'm with you. Only wear lipstick if you enjoy it.

Neither of you two need that stuff anyway. Your faces look just fine without.

Cool looking, just not enough slots for me. Tend to stick to the cheap plastic boxes for keeping the married batteries together in pairs then just charge and stack the batteries freshly charged at the bottom. I only buy a single type of battery generally so don't want to mess up the pairs by mistake. I don't stock up much on batteries either, just enough for a constant supply, use them, replace them all at the same time, 12 x 18650, 8 x 20700 but that's still 20 batteries to accommodate.

One more thing I do, waaaay to OCD for sure, but once I notice batteries start to drop to slightly sub-par performance, but not bad enough to warrant being replaced, I re-wrap them with red wraps and make a point not to take the red wrapped batteries if I'm gonna be out for a while, preferring batteries performing at their peak. Red wraps plenty good enough still to use at home where I have all my batteries on tap, out and about I only want 1-2 sets of spares, generally just 1, max. Currently 3 pairs wrapped red. Too much time on my hands for sure LOL.

Given the small number of mods I use, and the number of batteries I have available, I find a 2 year replacement cycle suits.

That's a really great idea Mysterion! I may be stealing it. I don't think it's OCD, I think it's kind of sensible.

I am just hitting the point where some of my first purchased batteries are getting like that. Not quite ready for retirement but talking a lot about it amongst themselves. LOL.

I use this lipstick holder from the Container Store to store my batteries (and another for atomizers) - it's very space efficient (I store a different battery size in each row):

I also use these to store my batteries - they fit perfectly in the lipstick holder above and I can also throw them into a bag or my pocket without worrying about shorts (these perfectly fit 18650s and they come in shorter sizes to fit 18500/18490s and 18350s):

I'm loving these battery dispensers, going to order a couple more. Blue is my color for older batteries, clear are singles for the tab.

I have the files for that and was going to print one off soon. Seemed like a worth while print project.

That's a shotgun shell box, isn't it? I have one that looks just like yours.

Not only GREAT for holding batteries...but also for my smaller Mods...like eGo AIO (D16), VV V3 and Goby...

If you have a local Ross...you can avoid the 3 week shipping time from China...where they'll run $3-$4...
