Battery Storage?

Is there a difference between the Powerpax holders and the Aviation Tools holders that Lighthound stocks?

Is there a difference between the Powerpax holders and the Aviation Tools holders that Lighthound stocks?

I believe that Powerpax is the name of the product (which I have also seen advertised as Storacell), and Tools Aviation is the name of the company (apparently a division of Foreman Tool & Mold).

Thank you! Ordered some to give them a shot.

Got my Powerpax order in last night, and you guys were right - great little holders. :thumbsup: I still like my Tamrac case as a single item to hold various types, but the Powerpax are great for in the cabinet at home.

I store mine in my Sony BCG 34HE charger and 35mm film cannisters.

I use powerpax....very nice, just I wish they had 14500, 18650, 32600, and 32650 sizes

no kidding just looked for the same.

Already have 4 carriers for 12x AA and love these things.

My kids broke the little clippies that hold the AAs in place so I took a mitter saw and now I have 3 12 x holders and 1 8x holder

Wow, I started this topic about 5 years ago. Where does the time go? I still love my storacell battery holders and have several of them now. The glow-in the dark ones are my favorites.
Anyway I got tired of waiting for storacell to come up with a holder for the CR2 so I designed one myself and just posted it on Thingiverse.

I have yet to print it myself, but plan to do so once my glow filament for my printer gets here.

I'm also plan on making a single cell holder for the CR2 that will attach to a keychain.

For home, I get the ones like timtim2008 posted, and the ones made from the same material that hold a dozen. I mostly use them for Eneloops and lithium primaries - I keep alkalines in the original boxes (and would only use them in flashlights in an emergency anyway). Away from home, I use the smallest thing I can find that holds the quantity I need.

Very cool work there. Nice job, appliancejunk!

Thanks, After I get some printed I will post some photos of the finished product.

Got around to printing one today. I could use some really fine sand paper to do a little more clean up on the edge, but overall I'm very happy with how it turned out and the CR2 batteries fit great!
I printed it in GLOW filament. I put the original AA and CR123 holders next to it in the photo to compare it to them.

I uploaded some additional photos of it on thingiverse too.
