OH, greenbatteries has $2.50 shipping USPS 1st class for small orders, so I have more coming, along with some more
plastic AA cases.

For my Canon 5D batteries I have plastic snap-on covers ...
But I have not seen any type of cover for the E-M1/M5 batteries. The contacts are reasonably well protected against
short circuit by being recessed in a grid but carrying them without a protective cover is not my style. So far I
have been putting them into small, plastic bags which are only just big enough to fit them in. It's not a
particularly good solution and also doesn't provide any means of marking the charge state. Anybody have a solution
for this?
I have one of these which I use to carry a spare battery and card in my pocket.

It's designed for four AAs, but is flexible for the different shape of µ4/3 batteries. Hmmm, now that I've found it
again, I may get more.
Beyond that, I have a small bag with further spares the main compartment and cards in front zipper pockets. The
batteries are in little plastic bags and the cardboard boxes off brand spares come in.
Here's another possibility.

Nothing as slick as the Canons. OTOH, they can come off in a pocket or bag, and the above won't. The one I have is
good quality and none the worse for several years wear.
