Hi guys! I made a big powerbank a couple of weeks ago, its perfect to have in my schoolbag as backup, but little to big to have in the pocket, so i decided to make another smaller one.
This one is can also be customized with different lids if you get tired of the design, with a capacity up to 8000 mAh. There is an assambley-video step-by-step on the youtubechannel.

I printed it at 20% honeycomb-infill PLA.
I used Support for the minibottom part, the other ones no support.

Step 2: Solder the Battery Holder

Make sure you got a Parallell circuit with your batteryholder. Like in the picture, else you will burn the PCB due to high voltage!

Step 3: Solder

The USB-PCB card to the batteryholder, Bta+ (Red) and Bta- (Black).

Step 4: Assamble

First insert the 3D-printed button, then the PCB and battery holder.

Step 5: Glue

Make sure everything works and glue everything where it belongs.

Step 6: Lid

Put the on the buttom and tight the 4 x M3 screws 10 mm.

Step 7: Finnished!
