Spare Battery Carrier For 18350 Cells?

Gebe · January 30, 2018, 11:54pm

Does anyone know of a spare battery carrier for 18350’s? I have a lot of battery carriers for a lot of different cells but none will fit a 18350. Thanks.

Maybe I am reading your question the wrong way. But then again, I am not a born CONUS-ian.
I have a lot of 18650 carriers that carry 2 * 18650 in one direction (let’s call it: North-South)
and that can carry 4 * 18350 in the other direction (let’s call it East-West)

Thanks Henk but I’m looking for a SINGLE cell 18350 carrier.

For that I use a one dollar aluminum “pill box”. Look around for the right size. I had to grind down the top lid a bit in order to be able to close the box tight without the top hitting the battery. Now fits like a glove. And waterproof, of course.

I have not tried these, but they Are for a Single 18350 (not for single 18650)

Your post just convinced me to place an order, for two.
Will try to remember to update this thread with my impressions.

Soshine SBC-019 2*18350 Battery PP Protective Storage Case (2-Pack) @ FastTech Neat stuff imho.

Cheers

yes the multi packs are great too, but the OP is asking about locating a SINGLE 18350 container, not a Multi Cell carrier.

Gebe · January 31, 2018, 7:48pm

Thanks folks for the suggestions but like Jon said, I’m looking for a SINGLE cell carrier.

I’ll check those out from Oveready and thanks Jon.

Persechini · January 31, 2018, 8:01pm

Old 35mm photographic film container might work. Too big for one cell, but not big enough for 2, and it’s something you might have hanging around depending on your age

jon_slider · January 31, 2018, 8:19pm

I was curious if Oveready was just selling regular film canisters, but no, the Oveready canister is 10mm, or 0.4”, or 31, smaller in diameter and 12mm, or 0.5”, or 24, shorter in length.

18350 cell = 18 mm x 35 mm

Oveready canister, Exterior: 22 mm x 39 mm

Film canister, Exterior 32 mm x 51 mm

I have used urine sample containers for 2xcr123a and single 18650. Definitely waterproof… Its the tall ones in these images

And free (usually) from doctors reception, just don’t ask for a dozen that might be taking the P.

Also if you know any diabetics they may have test strip containers…again waterproof

The onetouch ones (black) and should fit as they can take 3 AAA

SpAwN · January 31, 2018, 9:52pm

Uhmmm, did I read something wrong? I did post single battery container. Did you check my links?

I just didn’t post any picture, but this is what I posted above:

jon_slider · January 31, 2018, 11:30pm

yes
18350 is what we want, not 18650
the numbers do look almost the same, and I appreciate your effort to help, and welcome more info if you find a useful single 18350 container

Gebe · January 31, 2018, 11:41pm

Again, thanks for the replies but people here are confusing 18350 cells for 18650 cells. 18350 cells are the newer little shorty cells.

Yeah, SpAwN you did fine but you’re showing carriers or holders for 18650 cells.

I have lots of the waterproof match carriers that you can buy at most sporting good or Walmart stores for cheap and they hold 2XCR123’s or one 18650 cell perfectly but too large for the 18350’s.

Keep them coming folks and we’ll find something.

SpAwN · February 1, 2018, 12:03am

:person_facepalming: my fault guys sorry, was little confused with the other posts I think.

jon_slider · February 1, 2018, 12:32am

all good, pics help
I want a single carrier for the Black IMR 18350

RobertB · February 1, 2018, 1:16am

Need some of the old 35mm plastic film canisters

Lightbringer · February 1, 2018, 3:17am

An S2+ with the shorty tube.
