USA gadget for storing batteries

If you're planning a trip to the USA, this post might be useful.
Do you have a cluttered kitchen drawer or cupboard with loose batteries of every shape and size?
When I was in the USA recently, I bought a battery storage tray from a Bed, Bath & Beyond store.
The tray can be fixed onto a wall or mounted inside a cupboard or laid down in a drawer. It has different sized partitions to store all your batteries securely and it has a battery tester incorporated.
The battery tester has coloured lights to indicate the battery life/strength and will accommodate/test all sizes of domestic batteries.
I paid around £10 for it.

This sounds exactly the same as the one I bought from Lakeland Ltd about five years ago. It is excellant. Very easy to see when you are getting low on a certain size, which is good with Christmas coming up?
Can also be used for your rechargables.
I don't think Lakeland stock it any more, but I have seen it for sale recently. I can't remember where though. Was either in one of those catalogues that come with magazines and the weekend newspapers or in a Christmas catalogue. Was definately in the last month, because I thought about buying one for my Mum.0 -

The battery storage item shown on Tricky's link is much smaller than the one I bought.10 Dec 2007 - Led Zeppelin - I was there. :j [/COLOR]:cool2: I wear my 50 (gold/red/white) blood donations pin badge with pride. [/SIZE][/COLOR]Give blood, save a life. [/B]0
