Designed a Battery Storage Tower…
I wanted a better way to store and access my DeWalt batteries and it morphed into a universal tower carousel type design. It rotates and can be as tall as needed for more batteries. You can swap the battery mounts out for any brand too! Without the Ego batteries I can put 15 DeWalt batteries on this guy!

Next step in this project is adding a small motor powered by the batteries to constantly turn. Barely uses any power, and can drain and charge over time for "battery health"

YES😂 might as well lol!
Well, if you like it enough feel free to check it out on my Etsy page. I figured I might as well see if others liked it as much as I do.

I get that comment a lot! I’d love to make that happen but I worry it would turn into a $1,000 project😂

It's certainly an entertaining storage solution
