In 2008 I completed (minus the big 4) and stored in standard 9 card pages. The catch was I used a paper cutter to slice down semi-rigid holders to fit in each slot. Protection was great. Album was thick and heavy. Biggest draw back was the cards not popping as much through two layers of plastic, plus I feel 20 on a page is way more pleasing on the eyes than just 9.

when I was researching, the thing I read the most was that the top row of 5 in the 20 page sheets leave the cards dangerously close to exposed. With the Lighthouse binders that have slipcases, that would be less of an issue for me, but I went with 15 pocket pages and I am happy with it. I was also scared about putting cards in sleeves, but I bought a cheap pair of stamp tongs, and they are a total game changer. Have never had an issue putting a card in or taking it out of the page with the tongs.
