Abstract

An apparatus for storing and dispensing small batteries. The apparatus eases the process of inserting such batteries into small electrical devices. The apparatus includes a plurality of handles, a base member removably attached to each of the handles, and a cover to envelop the plurality of handles and the cover. A small battery is removably attached to the end of each handle, allowing the use of the handle for assisting with the insertion of the battery into a small battery well. The plurality of the handles are stored in a "matchbook" type package, allowing the removal of one handle and continued storage of the remainder.
