I’ve started my flashlight and battery (twelve 26650,eight 18650, six 14550) collection (so far).
but I guess i need something (tray or case) to store all the batteries in one spot (and maybe half a dozen flashlights).
Any trays or cases designed to hold the rechargeable batteries?
There are a few cases available but it is unknown if there are cases that can hold many batteries at the same time. Have a look here: http://www.xtarlight.com/05-chanpin/p-001-1.asp?styleid=303
and here: http://www.mtnelectronics.com/index.php?route=product/category&path=96_98
The first link is only for the manufacturer and there are most likely dealers here in this forum for these and others.
Best wishes
I think it is better to buy the little 2 or 4 battery cases for the batteries and then find a container to hold all of the individual cases.
Sometimes guys find a great container to hold dozens of batteries, perfectly, but you can’t help but wonder at the chaos and jumbling, when 1 or 2, or 4 batteries are removed from that picture perfect fit.
Have a look at some of the fishing tackle storage containers. I found a bunch at walmart on sale. I added some foam and they work excellent. Spent like $7 and could fit all my cells and they are organized.
Plano 3500 series plastic stowaway with adjustable compartments at most sporting goods section works for my batteries.
Take a battery with you have to find the correct one to fit your needs.
A plastic 12 gauge shotgun shell box (like for reloading) works well for storing 18650s and 20 gauge for 14500s...
