How to tell at a glance if extra camera batteries are charged

I took a tip from Maddy the Goose - I put painters tape over the batteries once charged and remove it when used.
 
I always label my batteries with numbers. When I'm off on a long canoe trip, it's not uncommon for me to take half a dozen batteries along. I always start the trip with battery #1 loaded into the camera. When It dies I swap it out for battery #2, when that one dies, in goes #3 and so on. This is a technique I've used for many years as a TV News cameraman, and it's really simple, and it really works.
