Hi I usually use my multi-meter to check the voltages of my batteries but my 9V that powers said multi-meter has died. I haven't had the chance to order some replacement batteries so I ended up using a old Sony Pocket Station to test out all my batteries (more then 2/3 were dead) I ended up using the strongest ones to re-test the "dead" ones that couldn't power up in a VMU being VMU's piggy back the power in unison in the battery compartment (or so I think) and a really weak one on top of a known working strong one will not power on.
I was wondering if anyone had any recommendations for checking the voltages besides using a multi-meter?? And how do yall store these things?? I have em loose in a bag but I think that is why most of them discharged cause the positive and negative currents were all rubbing against each other. I need to invest in a 3D printed battery holder or find a case that can store them without them touching and dying out.
