I have tried to keep the spare batteries for my torches, camera etc., tidy in the past, using many different methods – keeping them in the cardboard and blister packaging (it soon falls apart), wrapping a few batteries together in gaffer or insulating tape (ending up with hard-to-get-at batteries, sticky terminals and a mess) and even in poly bags (which rip). No method has proved ideal, leading to battery terminal damage, accidental battery discharge, lost batteries and personal frustration… but recently I’ve been trying Powerpax Battery Management Caddies, and found them the ideal way to carry spare batteries.
In particular I have been looking at the AAA Slimline6 in Venetian Red and the AA Slimline4 in Orange as these are my most used battery types. There is further colour choice which includes Crystal Clear, Caution Yellow, Military Green and Tuxedo Black – as well as the “Glow in the Dark” Moonshine).
These simple plastic mouldings offer safe carriage and easy one-handed access to your batteries and protect both terminals whichever way up you put them and prevent the problems listed above.
Originally developed for pilots, the PowerPax Caddies are a simple way of keeping batteries safely stored in your kit and are ideal for all your home, travel, camping, outdoor adventure battery storage needs. They will take rechargeable as well as standard batteries.
Costing around £3.99 each, these PowerPax Battery Management Caddies should last a lifetime and save a lot of frustration and damaged spare batteries.
