Hi ECF!

I just got my battery cases and I'm wondering about the safety of using such cases made for multiple sizes. Is there a specific way to place them? I guess I'm over paranoid but just want to make sure. Would this be safe? Anything I can stick in there to eliminate the rattle? photoftl;bdopdfL-k.jpg

Also I might just be really OCD but I find it highly annoying the rattling my 18490 makes in a 18500 case.
Do you know of any place that would sell single battery holders? Something to carry individual AW 18490's (I need 2 for the work day, 1 in PV and 1 spare) Something like this:

Obviously I took the pic from NicFitNation hehe

That should be safe. It can only make a short-circuit if the tail ends of the two 18490s touch, and the case design makes that unlikely. However, you might wear holes in the casing of the 18350. If that happens it could short-circuit in your mod.

For the 18490/18500 problem, I would add a dab of hot-glue or a tiny piece of felt.
