I personally don’t see why people wouldn’t just want to carry them in the packaging they come in? For me it’s done already which = done!

i have a holder on my key chain (it holds two batteries) for when on goes dead usually when i am with a group of friends. I got it free from Icell batteries that i bought online from amazon.

if you’re a guy, the battery packaging is cardboard and easily bent in which batteries comes loose in the pocket. Go get a 2 battery keychain holder, cheap and worthed when your needing the batteries. It’s always on the keychain and never have to grab it daily to put in your pants pocket.

I keep two batteries in one of the credit card slots in my wallet. I keep the stickers on, and arrange them so that they don’t touch each other. Worked well in the last 10 years.

I keep a keychain holder with a separated compartment to carry two batteries. I also keep a small wheel pack in my laptop bag and also a wheel pack in my desk at work.

Contrary to what dockristin said about putting the stickers/tabs back on the batteries not stopping the drainage, I did a test were every night I removed the batteries and put scotch tape over the air holes and was able to get 4 extra days out of the batteries but I didn’t think it was worth the trouble. I get on average 14 days out of size 13 and was able to push it to 18 days by covering the air holes.

My guess is that you live in a humid region where covering the air holes at night retards the electrolyte gel from becoming too wet and reducing battery life.

I keep them in the packet they come in and store it in my purse. I use Power One which have the tabs built into the packet so can not store them any other way. :slight_smile:

Of course you can… just cut the little black tab between the battery and the center of the pack.
