Another point I mentioned already but feel need to put emphasis on now: If we here collectively develop a new battery solution the result will very likely remain an open source DIY kit for tinkeres and people interested in building their own experimental battery assemblies. Due to the regulations and certificates requires for bringing new battery products to the market we will most likely not be able to afford making it a real retail product..

Fenix sells individual batteries and also chargers.

Love your mock up. Sadly the 90 degree rotation board was only desired by a small number of people (I was one!) so development has been dropped, or maybe pushed to a much lower priority. Hopefully they will revisit the concept.

I agree about the ergonomics. But it's probably too late to have this changed. I think a squat, horizontal rectangle was the wrong choice. Better something like this: Black Betty Cameras
