Battery dispenser

[Tomsk]

To make better and more efficient use of my Nimh batteries, and because I don't have access to a 3D printer.

From a couple of these

A sharp knife, some Pritt and voila:

Batteries nowadays come in boxes that can dispense and close when not in use, but okay then.

 

[NMBlack]

Very resourceful.......but advertising competitors? Tut, tut, tut....

Thrilling. Do you think you could engineer a handy item for rotating my neckties? I wore the same tie twice in a week and was mortified.

Shun the evil one. SHUN, I SAY!

What's wrong with putting them in cases and chucking them in your Man drawer?

Wear a shirt with the necktie to reduce your mortification.

Nothing.
But now I don't have to remember when each battery was charged.

Does that matter with LSD batteries?

I have 14 in my dispenser, plus another 20 in various devices. Some of the devices would only need a change every 6 months or so.
Before LSD cells I probably killed a few by charging them and then forgetting which I was supposed to use next, thus leaving cells unused for over a year. With my dispenser I know they won't get left for too long.

I made my own 3D Printer from paper, cardboard, staples and some sticky-backed plastic tape but I am a black-belt in Origami.

 

[bitslice]

This is what Blue Peter was all about, making ugly but semi-useful things out of loo rolls and sticky-backed plastic.

 

[areksnumbr1sxylady]

How many uG in each of those "LSD Batteries"?

 

[BDEE]

It was never any good unless at least part of it was made from paper mache.

 

[danza]

Wait, you say there's a 3D printed version? I'm totally making one at work.

 

[flame696]

I think thats quite clever, crude but clever.

 

[pepp77]

How many rechargeable batteries do you need, I think I have 4 and one of them is spare

Bow to the 3D-printed battery-dispensing master race!
