Storing/Transporting Saddle Pack Batteries

Stick packs, no brainer... Straight six cells, again no brainer. The question here is how the hell do people store and transport Saddle-pack batteries?

I've tried to keep them in my kit but I've already seen two batteries touch and spark. I'm worried about damaging the batteries or anything worse.

I'm just curious how do people store and transport their saddle-pack batteries!

Any help is welcome.

Thanks in advance,

Ezi

I always just transported/stored them in a standard battery case like the Racer's Edge battery box or the Trinity bag. You just fold the saddle loop over the side of the pack and shove it in.

You can try covering the ends of the batteries with tape to prevent sparking or you could put a piece of foam in the middle of the pack during transportation.

I just keep my saddlepacks in the case that the batteries came in.

saddle packs can fit into battery cases just like any other battery pack. I've also seen people stick each pack into seperate zip lock baggies.
