I wanted to create the slimest case I could for the heltec v3 radio board, but with a bigger battery so I could use it on extended trips and last me at least 48 hours.
I also added a switch so I could cut of power completely and not rely on the meshcore's hibernate feature, just to eeek out a bit more battery life.
You will need M2 bolts ( I didnt use brass treaded inserts to keep design thin as possible) and optionally you mnay want the toggle switch. - there is both versions of the body included.
P.S. the spacer goes on top of the board to allow wires to go accross battery side to radio side whilst keeping the radio pcb flat on the case body. Maybe I'd add an image with the cover off so you can see how i have placed the spacer - but just be sure to note the components on the radio board and dont squash them when placing the spacer!
The parts I used:

The switch i used is: https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B07J4KB38W
