This is not the first time this item has been posted here, but I think it's cool, so forgive me.

I had been storing 3 mL vials in the freezer, within a small styrofoam box with ice packs, to try and reduce temperature swings during the defrost cycle and open door times. But the styrofoam box, small though it was, was still relatively huge.

I found that someone created a vial tray insert for the Hydrapeak 32 oz vacuum jar, and released the 3d printer files. So, I got the jar ($23) and printed the trays ($3).

I think there is an etsy shop where you can buy these, but ... 3d printing has hit the point where it's a pretty reasonable thing to do yourself. If you are the kind of person who is here researching peptides, you are technical enough to feed and care for a 3d printer. For $200 you can have everything you need to make stuff like this yourself. I'm a big fan. It's a wonderful tool.

Thanks for the tip! I don't plan to buy a 3D printer myself, but I'm going to look these up on Etsy. There are plenty of knockoff vacuum sealed things with the same dimensions!

Lol same! Got to go measure my mini fridge shelf.
 
I did a bunch of experimentation around this idea a while back and ultimately abandoned it because it’s such a poor use of space. Boxes are more space-efficient if you’re hoarding more than a kit or two.

I have this hydrapeak in bright pink and white inserts.
 
I just upgraded one of my freezer food storage containers to one of these:

4 layers, 120 vials.
Width: 5.5 inches
Height: 9 inches

That's really a pretty good deal. That's the equivalent of 3 Hydrapeaks in 1 container. I 3d print my own stuff, but will look into this one.

Close, Vial Vault holds 120 vials and protects against temp swings and humidity.

I’ll tell you a short story, kids. Back in the olden days I made the best damn peptide boxes the world had ever seen. People clamored for them, but I already had a job so was fairly reluctant to grow it as a business. Then one Christmas everyone got 3d printers from their spouses and started making low quality sparkly boxes, I saw the writing on the wall, and dropped the venture. My company was called Vial Vaults.

The prick you’re linking to decided to steal the name (made theirs the singular instead of plural) and mislead people into thinking they were purchasing my boxes. Therefore, fuck him, I’m removing links to that particular Etsy store. It’s probably unfair that a mod can do this because of such a grievance but I don’t care. Go buy from a store that doesn’t try to manipulate people and capitalize on the goodwill and hard work of other people.

If you have purchased from them you should leave them a negative review because it would make me smile.

You've got an Etsy store? Can you drop the link I'm interested
