Ok do explain why you would need that many batteries . A BOB should last you 72 hours its not a place to keep a battery collection, just take what you need. You might need batteries for a torch but 2 dozen i keep 3AA batteries in my bag for my headlamp and that's it.

I would seriously think about taking the majority of the batteries out of the bag. That been said put them in a cheap tin you can buy in pound shop and tape it shut so its water proof.

This is a fair point. I guess im borderline hoarder haha. Ive got a few torches and a small radio. Two dozen is more than enough really. Its a pretty huge bag and After i felt i had 72 hours worh of kit there was still room so i just kept adding to it

Use a wind up torch instead?

Or wind up torch radio?

Or wind up lantern?

You need to make sure that all your battery operated kit is using the same batteries. Torches should ALWAYS be LED. low energy use
