Storage Cases for the Freezer?

I'm not sure if it's necessary but I got the Hydropeak thermos with inserts for the freezer. I just liked the idea of an airtight container for my vials that will be in storage for long term. I also have a 3D printed case that I keep the vials I will be using sooner than later. Maybe some of the pros can weigh in on it.
 
i also monitor them remotely with Yolink wireless thermometers.
Smrt. I use Govee for temp monitoring, it sends push notifications and emails when there's a problem with the fridge. I set this up years ago after losing half a freezer of meat due to a child wanting a popsicle. But it keeps watch over the peptides too.

I posted this recently in another thread, but it bears repeating. This particular screenshot shows the fridge going into defrost mode, and how warm it gets in there, however briefly. Which is why many recommend keeping the peps in an insulated container.

 
I can't find a definitive answer to this. I see all kings of pictures, and some really nice ones 3D printed. Do you guys/gals recommend storage cases for storing your vials in the freezer? I have 2 kits coming in Wednesday and 3 in about 2 weeks, all Reta.
Thanks
I used a soft lunchbox from WM for 6 months until it ran out of room. It could hold 10 kits and had frozen packs. You don't have to get anything elaborate until you're down the hole with the rest of us rabbits 🐰🐰🐰

I've been shamed into looking at the wifi Govee's. I did accidentally leave a fridge door cracked that was being partially blocked last summer. That wasn't pretty, but saved all the frozen side. Just had warm beer for a couple days. 🤣 🤣 Just looked, outside freezer is -9F.

A very good point indeed, i keep mine in an old school NON-auto defrosting freezer for that very reason.

If you have a Harbor Freight near you the Apache cases are extremely durable, airtight, cheap, and have 2 places to add locks. The Apache 1800 can hold almost 200 vials with the inserts I made for myself. The Apache 2800 can hold 32 kits still in the plastic holders and far more with an insert. Plenty of room for ice packs and desiccant packs in both as well.
 
I do have a HF pretty close. This was one I was looking at on the cheap. It fits 63 3ml.

If that foam insert could be drilled with a hole saw, I'd bite. I can't see how you would do it. They're nice though.
 
I just take all the foam out. My inserts replace them or the kit cases do. I never thought freezing the foam would be a good idea but I also never tried it 😆
The foam freezes fine🙂 I used to use these. I also just put the kit cases inside. on top of some foam...
Now i just store my Bac in there. (not in the freezer obviously)
 
I was in a hurry to move my stash from the house freezer to the shop freezer before my MIL came for a visit, so I quickly grabbed one of these art supply boxes off of Amazon. (I got pink because it was the cheapest color.) I’m pretty sure I can get a 2nd stack in there, but it’ll be a little tight. For $15, it’s fine for now.

I used these til they got discontinued. When they did, I hurriedly snapped up five more. I have enough to hold all the peps I should ever actually need to store. If I need more, I'll reassess my hoarding impulses and get a couple of hydrapeaks. I dearly love these, though; they're compact, pretty, and I can store thirty vials in them. No inserts, I just put them in facing up, and when it's full, I layer the top with a few silica moisture packs and put the lid on.

What's going on at your house where you're locking up peptides?

Honestly, I found some nice storage boxes from the dollar tree......worked great for me! 🙂
 
Cheap aromatherapy cases on Amazon 63 vials , about $15 au or $10 us. Will keep them in the dark and definitely protect them if you drop something heavy and frozen on them. Always label everything. Not fancy or pretty but do the job.
I have one of these almost full with desiccants. I should have one of the really nice Kings Things 3D printed for 50 vials tomorrow.

We just got a new upright freezer and since I tripped the circuit on the last one (13 years old) and killed that Cow 2X. I was goaded into getting one with an audible alarm, so you're not alone.
 
Wife goes to the Dollar Tree regularly. Care to post some pics so I can tell her what to look for?
For sure. I'm a fan of the crafts section storage boxes...I still put them in a ziplock bag in the freezer too. Also, those little craft bottles are great mini travel size pill bottles (or reusing the bac bottles of course) That tin is actually a dollar tree first aid kit, ha!
