The Best Sony (Compatible) NP-F battery cover - Compliant latch

thingiverse

A battery cover that fits the bottom of any Sony (compatible) NP-F battery. There are a lot of different NP-F style batteries, differing mostly by how tall they are (taller batteries have more capacity) but the bottom attachment plate is the same across them all. Some common battery sizes are: NP F980 F970 F975 F960 F950 F930 F750 F550I tried a few of the other options, but they were all friction fit, so you had to scale the design just slightly up or down depending upon your printer to get them to fit perfectly (not to hard to put on, but tight enough so they wouldn't fall off). This design uses a compliant clip mechanism to hold the battery in place, meaning that it is loose fitting and easy to put on, and when you pull the clip down it is easy to get off, but once the battery is clipped in place, the cover won't accidentally fall off without somebody pulling the clip down.
