Battery Mag is a solution for keeping your camera batteries organized and quicker to access.
Essentially they are just small plastic holding cases. There is nothing overly special about them, but they do look like a useful way of keeping your batteries all in one place.
Small mirrorless and DSLR cameras use small-sized batteries and they are quite easy to misplace. A lot of them also don’t have battery indicators on them, so if you are throwing them in a bag you may not know which batteries are full and which ate empty.
Where I see Battery Mag being useful is that you could have two of them and keep used batteries in one and fresh batteries in another. Just by putting a piece of colored tape or a label on one of the Battery Mag holders would be all you needed to do. In saying that, a lot of shooters already do something similar.
