Abstract: A two-part hinged carrying case having a first and a second part. First and second molded foam inserts formed from electrically non-conductive resilient foam are positioned, respectively, within the first and second part of the two-part hinged carrying case. The first molded foam insert includes a number of two-part cavities formed therein and open to a first insert surface. Each of the two-part cavities has a first cavity open to the first insert surface having a first diameter less than a diameter of a battery to be inserted therein and a depth greater than one-half a length of the battery to be inserted therein and a second cavity concentrically oriented with the first cavity and in connection with the first cavity. The second cavity has a second diameter at least one-quarter inch less than the first diameter and a depth greater than a positive pole protrusion of the battery to be inserted therein.
