I have about 30 batteries here that need charging every few months and my system (such as it is) is a mess - basically everything bundled into a drawer, and unravelled as necessary. Saw this:
as a good attempt. Anybody else?
Overblown for my needs (I have about 6xD, 4xC, 24xAA, 12xAAA, 2xPP3 and
1x26650) they live in a plastic box, charged ones pointing one way, discharged ones pointing the other, every now and then I drag the charger out and shuffle them all through it over the course of a weekend.
I wouldn't go that far, but it is a nice implementation if you enjoy carpentry. I like the inclusion of a proper battery tester.
I'd not want something as ugly as that in a living area. Workshop or garage would be ok. But then it would be a trip to get the batteries you need.
Most will charge their phone etc where it is convenient. For those who have it on them 24/7, I'd guess the bedroom.
Ever notice when someone has their mobile by their bed in a TV drama etc, it is never on charge? ;-)
Looks rather lacking in electronics. I'd either include a handful of commercial chargers or make one with lots of battery holders that can all be used at once. Include one of the battery analysing chargers.
The rest is really nothing but presentation.

Nothing wrong with that. I very rarely charge my phone at night (or even at home). Although I can't use the USB ports on the PCs at work for charging (for security reasons they are disabled), each desk has a dual USB power outlet for charging. I just plug in when I arrive in the morning.
