8 X 18650 Battery Case

thingiverse

I know there are hundreds of 18650 battery cases/holders available but I couldn't find a case that suited what I was wanting exactly. Well I decided to design yet another case for 18650 batteries. This hold 8 batteries and can be wired in almost any fashion. I personally was looking for 4s2p setup and wire it as such. I know that the way I have the wiring in pictures isn't the best idea, but it was just for testing. I plan to use some flashing I have and cutting to fit 4 screws and drilling the holes to match. There are 2 versions here so far. > The V2 style is a bit thicker and heavier for any applications that require that. I don't have any protective caps for this version but can make some if anyone is interested. > The V3 is a bit smaller and uses less filament, but I think is basically just as strong. I also created protective caps to cover all of the screws and avoid short circuits. but are only available for the V3 currently. There are 4 types of caps, with different hole variations that will fit over the ends to cover the screws/nuts/wires. Both versions also have a body that can go along with them that will completely enclose the cells and make it look more of a finished product. I have not printer either of the bodies yet as I don't really have any need to do so yet.
