How well does this store AAA batteries? I assume the AAA batteries will slide within their slot, but will they shift out of their slot?

A full case keeps everything in place, but a less than full case will allow some to move about...however there is a partition in the middle, so that helps.

It's just slightly bigger, all of the extra batteries I have had are this way. I'm not shy with putting it in, it's never been a problem for me. Your not going to break it.

No. The battery slots are more like holes. Removing one has no effect on the rest of the batteries.

The plastic sleeve is meant to keep the batteries in alignment. Yes, they should work fine. If they slip out of alignment use either duct tape or scotch tape to act as the plastic sleeve battery holder.

Yes I found that it took a bit of time and patience to wiggle the battery out of its slot. I actually took two thin wooden wedges and was able to get the tip of each one both sides of the battery and slowly nudge the battery out of it's slot. When I put the new battery in I put some duct tape on each side of the base and fashioned a handle so the next time I could more easily pull the old battery out of its slot. It is just a matter of having a thin strong implement to wedge in the small openings on the side and work the battery out of its slot. Good luck

The battery fits snugly into the prong which does tilt slightly but the two pieces screw together and the battery is held in place in the top gray cylinder half. So the battery does not move around when waved about. However if you drop it it will effect the pen obviously. Just be careful when putting in another battery. ^_^

The part that you hold in your hand slides off the head part. Kind of like sliding or pulling a knife out of its sheath. Then you can easily see where the battery fits.

Ive used it with one single 18650 and with 3ea AAA NiMH batteries in the holder. But what I'm curious about is will it work using 2ea 18350 batteries loaded?

Unscrew the flashlight. Batteries usually go inside it. For AAA batteries, they just fit into the little 3 battery housing and it slips inside. If it doesn't work then turn it around.For the special C batteries (I do not recall which they are) you use a plastic sleeve that comes with it to fit them in.

Turn the selector to the "unlock" image, the batteries are in the top part. Now look at the open bottom of the top part and move the 2 little black tabs towards the center, the battery holder will now slide out.

The holder with batteries just clears at 2 3/8", but be aware that you can not store rechargeable AA batteries in this holder. I purchased this holder to store Powerex NiMH AA batteries along with 9V and AAA, and the AAs don't fit! (In reading the previous post, it says you need 2 1/2" if you are storing D batteries. I don't use size D batteries, if you do- you'd need more depth to clear.) Other than that, I do like the holder~

There are 2 different slots in each of the 4 positions. The AAA fit in the back slot, which is just a little bit higher than the frontslot. Put the base in first, up a bit from where you place the AA, and easily push the top in. My reaction was the samewhen I tried putting in the AAA, but with a closer look , I figured it out.

Yes, assuming we're talking about regular household batteries: AAA, AA, C, D, etc. I bought it for that purpose and currently store all my batteries in it! It's perfect and locks really well with the locking mechanism. No worries about it spilling open.

Hi Gail. I noticed with my son's new L28 that certain AA batteries are slightly larger than others, in which case the battery compartment cover will not slide shut if the batteries are too large. For example, I had Duracell rechargeables that would not fit, yet the extended life specialty batteries I purchased at the same time as the camera work just fine and fit in the compartment without a problem. (eneloop XX 2500mAh Typical / 2400 mAh Minimum, High Capacity, 4 Pack AA Ni-MH Pre-Charged Rechargeable Batteries ) Hope this is helpful!

Instructions recommend when charging AAA batteries to use slot 1 and 3 (IE: only 2 at a time.Incidentally, this writer just charged 2 batteries of 3: 700-750 Ma AAA batteries.

they do tend to shift a bit, but it is not problem to realign them. Since my wife and I use two different batteries, we are always shifting things a bit anyways. for our batteries, we just insure that the two contacts are touching the two outer contacts on the battery. When correct, the led glows red until the battery is charged.
