Boosted Rev Custom Battery 3D Parts and build instructions (free!)

 I've been making custom parts for the defunct Boosted Rev for some time now. One part that I continuously get questions about is the battery. Considering many people end up with dead batteries, I put together two 3d-printable designs that allow for people to put together their own batteries with minimal effort. I made 2 designs: 370Wh battery, 12S3P 18650 cells. Original capacity, small size. Extra space for large/smart BMS. 1000Wh battery, 12S5P 21700 cells. Huge capacity but very large.
