Ingress Pack -- iPhone X in Otterbox Defender with Kuppet wireless battery

Human: Update 4/14 While I was carrying the combo in my belt clip, something caught on it and detached - the battery pack and main bracket snapped free from the phone, which remained safely secured in the clip. The battery pack popped open on two sides; fortunately, the battery simply snapped shut without sustaining any damage. The printed part didn't fare as well; it landed on the thumb tab, which snapped off (see photo). [Plan, Print, Check, and Adjust...] So I made a minor redesign of the main bracket; it's now much stronger in that area. Function over form won out this time around. I also moved the thumb tab and "pin" closer to the opposing side by 1mm, so it fits more snugly into the Otterbox phone case (hopefully preventing it from getting knocked loose again). The only downside of getting a new phone is redesigning all the custom 3D-printed gadgets for it. This is a remix of my Ingress pack for iPhone 6+ (https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2747009) Since the iPhone X supports wireless charging, I opted to get a wireless-charging battery, eliminating the need for a 3-inch lightning cable and making the pack more compact. Of course, the size of the phone and battery are different, which meant re-sizing everything. Since the phone is smaller, the "power" button on the X wound up underneath one of the wraparound clips (whose position is dictated by the belt clip), so I had to modify it so that the clip didn't press the button. The iPhone X is in an Otterbox Defender case, and the battery is a Kuppet 20,000mAh wireless charging battery (http://a.co/5sXjdnK) - yes, it charges the phone while in the case. The battery retainer part positions the battery slightly above the phone to engage the wireless charging. As with all previous versions of this combo, the clip attaches by hooking onto the case's lip on one side and uses the same snap-on action as the belt clip that comes with the Otterbox case. It can also clip into the belt clip while attached; without any modifications to the belt clip. I decided to forgo the Ingress / faction logos this time around, opting for a clean, smooth surface against your hand instead. The hand strap is simply a 12-inch velcro "cable tie". With the hand strap, it's very easy to carry; you don't really need to "hold" it; with your hand in a relaxed position, it won't slip off.
