NOCO Boost Plus GB40 Cover (Customizable)

thingiverse

I recently got a NOCO Boost Plus GB40 and while the device is great, the included storage and transportation bag is small and fiddly. While thinking about a proper way to store the power bank within my car, I stumbled over a nice old soft case. I have no idea what it was used for or even what was even meant for originally. The NOCO power bank fits in perfectly, but soon revealed a small design flaw of the power bank. While all connectors are heavily shielded to prevent water to get into the device, there is nothing that prevents the device for being activated by accident. This would even happen to happen in the original bag. Probably even worst as the soft fabric does not stop any forces from pushing the power or light button. I found a little bigger sized model for the bigger power bank on thingiverse, but it would not fit mine. It only showed that I wasn't the only one noticing this design flaw. So I designed my own using FreeCAD. It is very low profile and only takes a 15 minutes to print, but it does the job. A little rubber band around the power bank will keep it in place. Problem solved. As always I included the parametric FreeCAD source, so you can modify it for other versions of this power bank.
