Hope 2 Cell Battery Enclosure with Fidlock Twist

thingiverse

This is an enclosure that houses the battery for the HOPE R4+ mountain bike light with mounting holes for the Fidlock Twist bottle connector. This lets you quickly attach you HOPE light to your mountain bike using the Fidlock magnet+twist system I've ridden with this on many rides now and it's worked really well. The fidlock holds the battery on even through drops and jumps. The enclosure has stayed sealed despite some very wet and muddy rides (note: I have glued the lid shut to get it sealed for wet rides) The enclosure fits the HOPE 2 cell battery which came with my R4+, but looks like it now comes with the R2 and District Plus Rear https://www.hopetech.com/products/lights/mountain-bike/r2-led/ Fidlock twist bottle connector: https://www.fidlock-bike.com/produkt/twist-bottle-connector/?lang=en The square nuts that come with the Fidlock twist bottle connector can be used, however shorter bolts are needed. I cut down some black hex bolts as there is little margin of error on the length of these bolts. Remove the green silicone from the battery before fitting into the enclosure. One downside of this enclosure is that you can no longer see the battery indicator. The lid also requires gluing shut, which makes it semi-permanent.
