Replace your stock FT-60R NiMH battery case with 2 18650 protected cells. This is still "in design" because I haven't field tested it yet but this has been through a few iterations already!
NOTE:
This print has been designed to use **protected** 18650 cells. These cells are longer than raw cells due to the additional circuit board enclosed. I used [these](https://www.18650batterystore.com/products/samsung-35e-protected) but all of the protected models are roughly 70mm instead of the 65mm unprotected cells.
NON-PRINTED PARTS:
- I used epoxy to attach springs I cut out of some 18650 battery cases ([These](https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B08LZ3553W/) are what I used, but I'm confident better prices are elsewhere).
- I flattened some 14 gauge solid copper wire for the radio contacts. Better solutions probably exist, but again I used what I had on hand.
WARNING: The files are intentionally aligned at 45 degrees. This is required to have sufficient strength for the clip. Pri
