Fatshark/Skyzone FPV goggles lead battery box with volt & ammeter V1

thingiverse

Power up your video goggles with lead acid power in no time! It's as simple as that, even though your goggles run on a mere 5V of electricity - nothing to worry about since they're equipped with a reliable 5V regulator installed right inside! Everything is now at a safe 5V level; 12V is just a myth! If you don't like having lithium batteries close to your body, that's perfectly okay too. After watching countless videos on YouTube featuring lipo-explosion mishaps, it's clear that there's some level of risk involved when using lithium energy storage. NimH batteries are the next logical choice for safe electrical energy in your pockets; all you have to do is charge them one by one - every single cell requires individual attention! Maybe you're a bit lazy or prefer an uncomplicated power source that recharges with minimal effort? If so, then a good old-fashioned, inexpensive lead battery might be just what the doctor ordered. To get a better feel for how much life remains in your batteries, I've included an ammeter and voltmeter right on top of the plate - no more worrying about running out! A flip switch also makes unplugging unnecessary. Please don't toss them away where Bambi lives; lead acid can cause environmental damage. Here are the parts you'll need: Lead battery: Multipower-mp MP1.2-6 (or a similar-sized lead battery) Dual LED digital voltmeter ammeter A cable for your video goggles Some flipy switch One XT60 plug Some more cables Four spare M3 screws Have fun with it! Print it out, sell it, or do whatever you like with this design. Don't mention me; that's completely fine! It's 100% free to use however you see fit - repost it as your own creation if you'd like! But please share pictures of your prints and any modifications you make. Print Settings Printer Brand: Ultimaker Printer Model: Ultimaker 2 Rafts: Doesn't Matter Supports: Yes Resolution: 0.1mm Infill: 20% Notes: Works great with a .4mm nozzle; please don't leave it out in the sun! How I Designed This I created this design using Blender and 3ds Max.
