Worker Hurricane 3xAA holder

prusaprinters

<p>Welcome all foam flinging fans!</p> <p>The Worker Hurricane is a lovely blaster, but comes with a battery holder that fits two AA cells. This design will allow you to fit three batteries without modyfying the blaster body.</p> <p>Why would anyone want to use three AA cells instead of 2S LiPo?<br/> I intend to use the blaster in home enviroment, where 4.5V gives the blaster enough punch to compete with springer Elite blasters, while not making it too strong for low-distance tags. You could fit three LiFePO4 cells to get around 9V, achiving similar performance to a 2S LiPo.</p> <p>Hardware needed:</p> <ul> <li>Thin solderable metal strip, around 3.5mm in width (I used a strip that connects connector pins bought in bulk)</li> <li>M4 bolt</li> <li>A bit of wire to extend the existing one, soldering iron, heatshrink tubing</li> <li>A bit of foam to prevent rattling (I have used the foam the blaster was packed with)</li> </ul> <h3>Print instructions</h3><p>Any settings are fine, I printed mine in PLA, 0.2mm layer height.<br/> I would suggest using PLA, as melting it when soldering the tabs creates the least harmful fumes.</p>
