I have no RapidGrip but I have a film container taped on to the carrying strap and I have glued a battery (in its plastic pack) on the bottom (outside) of the container. Never run out of film or battery power! If only RapidGrips were a bit larger, then one could keep spare films in them. And the batteries would not rattle. OK T.A.? One other place to put the spare battery is to glue it on to the top of the camera, between the flash shoe and the rewind knob. Actually that is where I have small round spirit level glued on at the moment, but if I just put it a little bit to one side, then there would be room for the spare battery too.....
