Doesn't look like it since he has the lipo charger on the outside of the tin.

Fair play for trying new things out! Nice to see some variation.

Personally, 3 hours + game time with the 1200mAh is fine for me and I prefer the lipo charger inside the case.

What did you use to surround the lipo charger? Nice idea on the foot raisers to give it clearance.

Thanks guys, its like more battery at the cost of take out the lipo charger, it was a hard decision but at the end for me it dosen't look bad. To surround the lipo charger i had to use a piece of the base since the battery is more larger it was necesary to cut the base a little more to make it fit.
