Looking for ways to mount the AA battery pack to the flash stand for my off camera flashes. Not sure if anyone is using locking carabeaners or velcro straps. Ideally i'd like it to be secure, not move or flop around, but still be easily removeable.

Any ideas?

Tape? Sorry not helpful. I don't use mine enough to drain the battery in 1 sitting.

I use this...

$1.46 electrical grounding clamp from Home Depot.

Remove the top bolt... it's 1/4"x20... same size as the mounting knob that comes with the battery packs

I do this all the time - with the Manfrotto nano clamp:
