Memory Card/ Battery Storage

98olds

Ok, So I have a lowepro case that holds my SD cards so they dont go flying around my camera case. Its nice to keep them accesible all in one spot.


Is there something out there to keep all my AA batteries together neatly for all my flashes?


What do you all do for these?

How to you keep all of your memory cards, and AA batteries together?

Thomas Distributing has a ton of these too.

I think I got a couple free with my last order of rechargeables. I like the 4-cell and 8-cell holders. As long as you label the batteries properly it's easy to carry multiple 4-cell sets to swap into the flash quickly.

As I mentioned several years back in these forums, I like and exclusively use the AA PowerPax Battery Management System battery caddies ( http://www.personalbatterycaddy.com/ ). You can also find them for sale on Amazon (or Adorama) by searching for "powerpax".

I use several black, yellow, and flourescent glow-in-the-dark ones (that work very well in dark cockpits) to manage my rechargable AA and AAA cells. I first encountered them several years ago when the company was handing out free samples at EAA's AirVenture, and have found them unique, rugged and almost unbreakable, yet easy to use when compared to all the other kinds of cases and holders.

They work very well and are very secure, yet easily release cells instantly as you need them ... and are available in several sizes, holding several combinations of cells. I simply insert my discharged cells in the holders upside down (in relation to the other cells) so I know which ones to recharge. I have never had a problem with mixed up/overlooked and discharged cells for my three flashes since I began using these holders.

I have a few of these ^^. They're cheap, and they do the job. With all my plastic battery cases I take a green and a red sharpie and colour each end. Then when I put the batteries in, I know whether they're freshly charged (bump/positive at the green end) or spent (at the red end) at a glance.

Even better, the BEST thing I ever found (before I was shooting seriously, in fact - they just looked "interesting" and were cheap) was a couple of battery+card cases at a dollar store. Have never seen them anywhere since, but they are GREAT. It will hold 4x AAs, 4x CF cards (there's room to stack them two layers) and 2x SD cards. I think they were designed to take a memory stick as well, although I use that for any extra small bits and pieces.

I've only got two, but I sure wish I'd bought out the entire stock of these things - have never seen them anywhere since and they are GREAT. The sections fold up into one little "box" when you're done - everything in one easy-to-find place. Love 'em.

I hope you all appreciate my elegant product shots

get some 35mm film cases the old leather or vinyl, they work great each holds 4 AA.

I have the same little cases as a lot of you do. This is what I do to keep them organized.
