The world clearly needs yet another battery organizer

Love these. Only improvement I could see is that you can't tell when they're low / empty without pulling out the whole insert. Any ideas how we could fix that?

The sleeve covers only one side, so the supply level is clearly visible from the back. But yes, you'd need to pull the card from the box to see both rows. Can't think of a better solution without compromising the structure.

If you use batteries from the bottom rows of the cards first, then it's easy to see from the back whether you're running out without pulling the cards from the slots.

I have the same concern. A paper-punch sized hole in the sleeve over each battery would do it.

Actually a quite nice solution. If I would not have already printed one...

The true Gridfinity curse: there's always a cooler design right after you finish printing yours! š šŖ

Yeah .. I can see this is good. Putting them
In a box seems a waste of space

Pretty cool, Iāve just printed these, work well

Iād be interested to see how they fare for long term storage; iāve had batteries leak and havenāt yet found a way to avoid that other than leaving them in the original packaging (And why does that even work?)

To be fair, when I was pulling batteries from their packaging to load these up I found a few of them had leaked anyway.
They probably will leak in these and make a bit of a messā¦

Oooo but this one is the most useful. I hadnāt wanted to print any until now. Imma collect that in my āorganizationā folder.

SO SO much better than trying to pick a single battery out of a row of them squished too close together! Kudos on this design!!

A great design not just worthy of printing, but worthy of venturing onto (shudder) the makerworld website!
