One person's idea of "anal" is many other peoples' idea of "organized". I prefer to call myself "organized" though my wife and sons don't always agree!

I have only two batteries for my Canon 60D, but I sorta follow a similar system. When a battery come out of the camera (between 1/3or less capacity left; it immediately goes on charge and the already charged battery from the last switch is installed. If it doesn't show a full charge--seldom happens unless I haven't been very active--I immediately charge it. If I'm going out for a full day's shoot or even for a shorter time that I expect to be active, I charge both the day before. Works for me.
PS--I think your son owes you an apology and maybe a smack upside his head!

I agree with cambriaman and nadelewitz, He is NOT being anal at all ! I see a guy who has his stuff organized. Period !

Those who arbitrarily shoot from the hip and the lip don't understand the need for organization. We are seeing the results in our national government.

Do you find that they successfully recharge during rotation cycles. I found mine tended to stay discharged.

It's beginning to look like the weird ones are the ones that don't do this.

I think you are weird for using letters. If you check the manual, if definitely recommends using numbers to organize batteries and cards. (:->. That said, it is definitely a good idea to rotate the crops as you describe. As previously noted, I would also suggest noting the date of purchase on the label and, in my case, the vendor purchased from in case it needs to be returned within the warranty period. This has happened, especially when going to third party batteries, like Watson. But that is for another day and another post.

I should have numbered my socks and undies so they would wear out evenly.

I actually did that for my uniforms.

Oh dear. Time to send this to the attic. Photography and politics don't really mix that well.

Depends on how many wives I guess.
And also whose wives?

You are not weird, if one goes bad among the bunch and you don't have them identified you can spend a lot of time tracking down the bad one. I do it with just about everything I have more than one of the same of, doesn't matter what it is.
