Battery Holder for EN-EL14/14a Batteries?

[CrazyChef]

Is there anything that will hold more than four batteries? I have 12 batteries, and would like some sort of box/holder so that I can keep track of the rotation. I have the 4-pocket pouch type holders already but would like something a bit more organized.

I got tired of looking so I made a simple box out of cardboard for the time being. I shoot 99.9% from home (for now), so it's no big deal I guess.

. . . I have 12 batteries, and would like some sort of box/holder so that I can keep track of the rotation. . .

For context - I have five working digital cameras. Each has several batteries.

Rotation is executed by numbering each battery with permanent marker "ONE" TWO" "THREE" . . . and each subsequent next number (or pair of numbers for Battery Grip) is used when the previous is/are exhausted.

Storage is simple: any inexpensive kitchen-wear clip-lock plastic container. These come in a variety of sizes; are stackable and easily labelled and carried in a camera bag when required.

Because I have several cameras (and thus a truck load of batteries), I have about ten kitchenware containers, all the same size and shape: rectangular suits my purposes best.

Additionally I use the same storage (and labeling) system for my rechargeable 'AA' batteries and my data cards.

I am sure that there will be 'specialist' Photographic Storage cases for batteries, as there are for lens filters, flash filters, data cards, and other accessories, but I have never been one to (IMO) waste money on the frilly things like those.

Which clip-lock containers are you using?

I bought them on discount years ago, in packs of three, I bought four packs, I think two units have gone missing, or are being used for their intended use.

I bought this brand and this size because:
> very strong
> good seal
> excellent locking
> water proof
> size suited all stacking needs (i.e. internal size of container suited all batteries; all step-up and step-down rings; all filter stacks; all flash filters; all data cards and the few left over can be used store odds and ends, such as a HH Light Meter, Ball Head etc.)
> on discount (half price)

Sounds good. Thanks!
