JConcepts Shorty LiPo storage box

JConcepts Shorty LiPo storage box

JConcepts have introduced their Shorty LiPo storage box for up to three shorty-type LiPo battery packs. The box has a small footprint which makes it ideal for short trips with minimal amounts of space. The inside of the box is roomy enough for three shorty batteries and cushioned with high-impact foam that takes away stress during storage and transpiration. The foam insert has built-in areas which allow finger tip access top and bottom for that necessary grabby feel. The custom built, black colour storage box has JConcepts.net logos for authenticity and built-in plastic latches for easy open and close operation. Designed for short-term storage and to keep things nice and tidy, the box is not safe for charging or long-term storing Lithium packs.
