Battery Holders --Also "Utility Bag" suggestions

[Wits' End]

The first time I got some free Battery Holders from Thomas Distributing (just an example, not the batteries I got), I threw them away, thinking "how stupid" . My son got some with an order for batteries and he asked if I wanted one, I said no, then later, I said 'let me try one, please'. So I've used it for a couple months and it is great. Easy to tell which are charged, which aren't, organized etc.. However now that I realize these are good things, the hinge is about broken through. So I'm looking for a better, heavier duty holder.
I've found these:
Battery Wallet with belt loop that does not open.
Leather Battery walletl
Compact Military battery holders

I'm leaning toward the first of the three. Then I can label mine and my children theirs

As I was searching, on CountyComm specifically, I came across EOD UTILITY BAG, which if they had in stock, I'd probably get. Every Spring as I stop wearing my winter coat, I discover all the things I can't carry, without the extra pockets. A backpack is too big, belt pouches are too small. This looks about perfect. Any alternatives or suggestions?

Is there a better place to put this thread?

I wound up with an Everest medium messenger bag.
Still wanting input on battery cases

I have several of Battery Wallet with belt loop that does not open. They are very good.

I also like the batuca battery holders. They hold AA, CR123, AAA or CR2's or any combo of these.

Thomas distributing has a good selection for AA's.

Try Powerpax.net their holders are tough, come in many colors so you can seperate charged & discharged, they even make glow-in-the-dark ones to find in an emergency. This is the manufacturer of the ones you see on the Countycomm site and Sportys

Great selection, I think I'll probably wind up with the nylon ones in the first link.

Though the G-I-D ones at Powerpax really peak my interest
I think these are the best overall, but the nylon ones are less expensive.
Anymore suggestions?

Hello djlucky,

:welcome: and greetings to Slovakia!

your options above are all the same products Powerpax is the producer, but sells them also directly. Countycomm sells only to US residents :thumbsdow I made best experiences with Lighthound :thumbsup:

Right now four different GITD models are sitting next to my computer on a writing desk, one meter from a window. They get enough light during the day for a steady night time glow

The material is rather rigid, you can't bend or flex it. The cut-out tongues, however, allow a bit of movement to insert and hold batteries securely. They do rattle a bit in their holders, though.

Hth

Best regards,

Wolfgang

There is a new one out for hikers which is just a set of loops sewn in 3/4" wide elastic. Just flip one side to other for charged/discharged. Just saw it last month in Backpacker
