Not sure if this has been posted here yet, but for those of you who are looking for some higher quality 18650 battery holders than the ones you find on ebay:
1049 Keystone Electronics | Mouser
They're pcb thru hole mount but the battery contacts are removable so you can solder wires or solder tabs to them without melting the plastic. They hold 2x CGR18650CG's quite nicely. The material is High-Temp Nylon, which feels very durable. All around high quality stuff! I'm going to be soldering some heavy gauge wire to the contacts for my next project.
Oh! And they also have them with gold-plated contacts (pcb surface mount though)

Data sheet with single cell models as well:

Nickel-plated 18650 battery clips:
54 Keystone Electronics | Mouser
Enjoy!
