All,

As a result of my research and testing for the USBC battery for the newton,
I have created a modification for the original 3d Printed Newton case that
works as both a rechargeable pack or as a standard AA battery pack.

I was not happy with not having a smooth sleek look like the original
battery, so I made extensive modifications and prototyped this to fit some
2200 mah rechargeable AA cells I had laying around.

This fits perfectly after a bit of sanding of the support and was printed
open face to the bed so that supports would be easy to remove.

Autogenerated supports (tree & organic) were used with 100% infill at .08
layer height were used.

I have released the code, pictures, model files, and information to my
github.

I still have to test with a thermistor. After I get it sourced, I will add
that information to the github.  This is a work in progress and I am
terrible at using github, still learning there.

Best Regards,
Elias
