Tools and Hardware Reviews of Range Kleen WKT4162 66-Battery Organizer with Removable Tester
Customer Review: Does it's job!
Summary: 5 Stars
It does exactly what it says - organizes batteries.
The battery tester is a very nice feature that I didn't think I needed, but now that I have it, it's wonderful! No more batteries of questionable power sitting around!
The color (not that it really matters) is ugly and I wish it was black or white instead. It's not something you're going to hang in your living room in plain view anyway, so like I said before, it really doesn't matter.
We usually have a lot of AA and AAA batteries (infant/toddler child toys, baby monitors), so I wish it held a few more of each of those.
I have one size of battery that does not fit into it and that is the "N" size (a type of medical battery i believe, though I use it in a vibrating teething ring for my daughter). So if you're wanting it for those, just be prepared to put them in the AA spot and leave the space next to it open, so you can stick your finger in that one to slide the N battery out. But the N size battery (and button batteries for that matter) are so small that they are easy to store in a drawer somewhere instead.
Wonderful for getting battery packages and strewn about batteries out of a drawer and organized up on the wall! (I have yet to mount mine on the wall, but even without putting it up, I already love it.
Customer Review: Good battery holder
Summary: 5 Stars
I purchased two of these to replace an older battery holder that I kept in the garage. My old unit had the problem of "dropping" batteries when I pulled out some to use. This was especially evident with the 9v batteries. This new unit is great. I wall mounted both of them side-by-side and am able to quickly get to all of the batteries that I need. They are held snugly, but not tight. I have had no issues with batteries coming out or dropping off of the unit. One unit would suffice for most of my batteries, but I try to buy them in bulk at Costco and sometimes I need to hold a few extra ones. The tester works well. It's a bit strange to get the batteries into the tester when it's off the unit, but it's no big deal. The design allows you to test any size battery, which is nice.
I've had the unit for about 4 months now and would buy it again if needed. In fact, one of my friends had commented on my old unit and how he was wanting to buy one. When I got these, I purchsed an extra one and gave it to him and he loves it.
Customer Review: Battery Storage Rack
Summary: 5 Stars
Purchased this item as I was tired of having batteries stored in several areas of the house. Also it seems everytime I needed a replacement I would grab one and go to use it and it was dead or close to. Found that the kids where grabbing new ones and putting the old ones back in their place. Now I have it mounted in my office closet up high enough the little one can not reach, plus having the tester right there allows me to verify I am grabbing a new one.
The only complaint I have with it is I wish it had more AA & button cell storage. Since most electronics these days are smaller and use AA, AAA or some form of button cell batteries I find buying them at costco exceeds the standard slots. I found one work around since we do not use that many D size I can fit 4 AAAs or 3 AAs in these slots.
Customer Review: Buying this has saved me money already!
Summary: 5 Stars
Finally, a central place for all my batteries!
I first saw a similar product at my stepfather's house a few years ago and finally remembered to go looking for one. Of course, Amazon.com had it.
No more searching for AAA, AA, C, D and 9-volt batteries. I know exactly where they are. I can also use the tester to see if the battery is good before putting it into the remote, the camera, the computer mouse, the flashlight, what-have-you.
I knew I had a lot of batteries, but putting them all in a central location showed me there is no need to pick up an extra pack at the store just in case for quite some time. That's saving me 3, 4 or more dollars each time I don't buy more.
I'm seriously considering buying a few more for Christmas gifts.
Customer Review: Great one-size fits all
Summary: 5 Stars
We have batteries. Lots and lots of batteries. A couple dozen rechargeables plus we buy AAs by the 48-pack when we need 'em. Typically this has all been kept in a tupperware container, which often leaves me dumping the whole thing out just to get at last remaining AAAs buried beneath the D-cells.
I finally had enough and bought this organizer, it is only for my alkalines and is relegated to the shed 'cause we have no wall space in the pantry. It fits nicely in a drawer tho the battery tester is removed by sliding toward the top so if you do put it in a drawer keep this in mind (of course you don't have to use the holder if it is in a drawer anyway).
Not much else I can say, does what it is meant to do.
