3d Printable XT-60 battery caps for travel and storage

I 3d printed these XT-60 caps to travel, but it turns out that they are good for so much more! They take about 30 minutes to print, and they cost around 4 cents to manufacture, much cheaper than buying similar items from stores. The FAA says that if someone is going to travel with LIPOS on an airplane, they need to have something protecting the terminals from connecting on accident. This does the job perfectly. I used PLA 3d printing material in this project. MAKE SURE THAT YOU ARE NOT USING CONDUCTIVE FILAMENT!!!

I did not design this model, but you can find it here:
