Baofeng 18650 battery remix of remix

thingiverse

This is a double remix. Or, a remix of a remix. Thanks to both previous designers for their work. They deserve most of the credit for this. The upload widgit wouldn't let me link the original or first remix so here are their thing IDs, 2799874, 3523791. I also wanted to use 18650s with my UV-5Rs. I tried Tinfoil_Haberdashery's model and it was close but as the original designer mentioned, it didn't really work. Then I tried freideh's version of it and liked the clip mods but it still had the same issues as the original in regards to actually working. It didn't make contact electrically and wouldn't click (stay attached) in to the radios etc. So I trimmed and tweaked it until it did both of those things. At least on my UV-5R radios, this version works. I used some flattened copper pipe hangers as backing for the battery clips I had from another project.
