Finished off the battery box tonight. Its not the prettiest thing in the world but its functional and weighs next to nothing. lined it with foam to hold it nice and tight.

i didnt know if i should punch some holes in it or something along those lines to make it look more aesthetically pleasing. what do you guys think?

andy if you have a normal battery rally design do them pretty cheep. i made this because the rd one wouldn't fit in stupidly small gap i have for a battery now.

Just been doing the samething Ash. Got exactly the same battery as you and thought I could do with a neat holder for it.

Knocked one of these up at lunch last week. Still got to take the film off the ali, but if I do that yet it is more to polish!!
