Organizing Your Drawer Full of Batteries
Johann Erickson

Have you ever gone to your kitchen drawer to look for something and said, "what a mess" or spent valuable time sifting through a pile of batteries in the pantry drawer looking for those special size batteries and only to find that they don't work because they've been sitting in the drawer so long that they have already expired and no longer carry a charge? Organizing your drawers and closets is probably one of the most disliked household tasks. But just a little time spent organizing makes your life much easier.One of the those dreaded organizing tasks that is often put off as long as possible is organizing the infamous "junk drawer". We all have that one drawer we fill with a bunch of oddball items because we're not quite sure where else to put them. One such oddball item is household batteries. There are too many sizes and shapes and we never have enough of the right size when we need it because it seems like there are always less batteries left in the package than we thought.A great way to start getting organized is to use specialty products to help organize all those oddball items that you just don't know how to keep organized.

For example, the Battery Organizer is one of those great specialty items that helps make cleaning out and getting organized a breeze.As Seen on TV, the Battery Storage Rack is made of a durable polystyrene and can hold up to 51 batteries, including all of the most common sizes: AAA, AA, C, D, and even 9-volt. The Battery Organizer even has a built-in battery tester which helps to eliminate the fear of throwing out those nearly dead batteries that clutter drawers because we aren't sure if they might still be holding a strong enough charge. The Battery Organizer can be hung on a garage wall, stacked neatly in a pantry drawer, stored in the refrigerator, or mounted in a wall cabinet. Put it wherever you need it to keep batteries out of the junk drawer and organized and handy. All of the mounting hardware you will need is included, so you can put the Battery Organizer just about anywhere.
