This box is great it has a ton of options in what it can hold.

Best part this is it holds batteries in a myriad of sizes and this is one of the best ones to hold a reasonable quantity of 18650 cells.

You have the quite a few options.

36 x AA sized cells with no extra space left over.
12 x 18650 cells. With a tiny bit of extra space and they can be held tight enough that the box does not rattle much.

I am very pleased to find this box ay my local BIG 5 store in the fishing. It is the 900 IDS system where the dividers are movable but in 1/16th incriments.

So you can adjust the box to the size you want. I have it set to hold 4x AA cells in each section. Or 2x 18650 cells in each section.
 
The price was $3.99.
You can only seem to buy 2 at a time. This seems to be the way they stock them.

I purchased about 5 total. I actually need a couple of more.

For easy battery managment, you really do almost need like 3 carriers for each type.

This way I can cycle the batteries and manage batteries that need charging fairly well.

And transport what I need. Gads I have a ton of AA batteries i realize and not enough 18650s. But when you have lights that use 8 to 16 AA at a time you can go though batteries in a hurry if you don't have time to charge them when on the road.

May I ask the price at Big 5?
