Waste not want not this was assembled basically from scrap and left over parts!
I like it so much I think I'm going to make one from a new Maglight!
You can solder the lower half of a housing into a coupling cut the threaded portion off the male adapter and press the top portion of the housing into it. When assembled and installed it will use the whole body of the Maglight and even your hand as a heatsink!
The other pictures show how to use a PVC pipe section as a sleeve to accommodate any length battery. The copper coupling can easily be soldered to and your module covered with heatshrink tubing if you prefer to keep the case isolated from the host.
I am working on a threaded version that will all just screw together using O-Like modules. I would provide more details but I was banned here as Ronnie James Diode basically for sticking up for myself!
I wanted to share some of my design ideas hopefully to help a few people, also I wanted to show I'm not the idiot I was made out to be and not a bad person at all! I am sure I will get banned again so it doesn't really matter!
