Hi all! I posted this a few years ago but it's so useful it's worth another post.
For those of you using 18650 or CR123A batteries, this might appeal to you when you need to store some spare batteries in your backpack. Coleman, Coghlans and many others make plastic match stick holders that just happen to be the right size for these batteries. I've seen them at Walmart and Sportsman's Warehouse for less than $1.50 each. I've also seen them for $5.00 on Amazon! So shop smart.
The holders are just a bit longer than the batteries so a bit of cotton ball or foam will take care of that.
