Marty,
Thank you for your interesting note. A quick scan of
Thingiverse"
reveals a lot of various 18650 entries. Can you give us a clue
how to find yours?

I
have switched to my own 3D Printed case with 2 removable
18650 Lithium batteries and discharge protection. The
disadvantage, the case is about 1/4" fatter. The advantages
are that I can have charged batteries in place in seconds.
This set up last a LOOONG time compared to the nickel
batteries before recharging is needed. You can recharge with
an inexpensive Lithium USB charger that works for a bunch of
other types of batteries also.? The batteries are larger but
MUCH lighter. The BIGGEST advantage was that I got to have a
fun project. If you are interested, I have posted my work on
Thingiverse.? If you have access to a 3D printer and a
soldering gun, you can make this.?
