thanks, i like the shine mod, can't beat the price, but that activator button is just fugly. roughstack is a good option though. i like the wider/bigger buttons on some of the cheap custom battery boxes. doesn't need to necessarily stand out so much, but like the certainty/feedback of the bigger buttons.
i'm guessing the 18650 is too wide to fit properly in any battery type of box? probably why i haven't seen anything like that yet... might have to adapt the parts from one into something else like you said.
