Abstract: A beverage container holder includes an elongate tubular receptacle defining a hollow cavity therein and having a lateral cross-sectional area and a longitudinal length adapted to hold a beverage container, a closed liquid impermeable base end coupled to the tubular receptacle at one end. The tubular receptacle defines an open end opposite the base end. The open end communicates with the hollow cavity. The tubular receptacle includes a funnel section adjacent the open end. The funnel section is flexible, accordion-pleated or both flexible and accordion-pleated.

Abstract: The present invention is a package for the sale and display of batteries having a voltage indicator integrally associated with the package. A pair of electrical contacts are associated with the voltage indicator and the contacts are so positioned on the package that they are accessible for alignment with the terminals of a battery placed therebetween. When the electrical contacts make simultaneous connection to the terminals of a battery, current flows through the voltage indicator to visually indicate the magnitude of the voltage of the battery.
