Introducing a whole new portable way to store and dispense your batteries, the BatteryMag! Designed to look and function like a standard rifle magazine, this handy device holds up to 14 AA batteries. It works very well for keeping extra gadget batteries in your pack, without having them rattling around.
In addition to the 4 printed parts, you will need to cannibalize the spring out of a standard capacity (30 round) AR-15 magazine (I have tried springs out of a standard metal mag, a PMAG, and a HexMag). Alternatively, purchase one online for just a few dollars, such as this one for $3: http://www.brownells.com/magazines/rifle-magazines/magazine-parts/magazine-springs/30-round-spring-ss-sku078000109-41777-46685.aspx
