Default 1s lipo organizer

As I get more and more of these 1s lipos to power my Nano it was starting to get a little messy in organizing them. Here's a solution that I found for only $3 at your local gun/ammo shop. It's a MTM Case Gard for 20 rifle rounds. It's a J-20 Series for Small Rifle, an ideal fit for the little 1s lipos that we use.

With the help of a Brother P-Touch I labeled the rows that have EMPTYs and FULLs. I also added a small piece of foam on top to eliminate the top empty space and potential rattling during transport.

You're very welcome guys. You can actually order from MTM's website but they have some kind of minimum. I don't know what it is as I didn't explore further when I was trying to order one. I guess for $3, it's best to buy from a store due to, I'm sure, postage will be twice that.

And for all you die hard extremists with more that 10 packs () MTM has slightly bigger boxes that hold 50 rounds. Best to take a lipo with you to test the fit. I think the larger boxes are under $5. And Made in the USA - how refreshing!

Very nice! And, they come in 3 colors! I'll check elsewhere on the inter-web if they've got a minimum.


*edit - found this site, without a minimum:
Optics Planet.com

Which size do you use? Is it the extra small? I found them on Amazon too and want to make sure I order the right size.

I checked my receipt and UPC tag and it's the XS/Extra Small sized one.

Thanks for posting this! I actually had an extra one that I purchased but never used.

Default Re: 1s lipo organizer

I have been doing it this way for a while as well. I use the cases for my ar15 ammo. I stuffed a grocery bag in the lid to keep batteries from flopping around.
