I have been trying over a long period of time (mostly due to busy schedule) to upgrade a Dominix V2 to a larger rechargeable battery option.  I contacted Ultrasabers who were very helpful initially, but I've had a hard time getting the correct parts as the descriptions were vague.

This is what I was told:

If you would like to upgrade the Battery on your Saber you can do it yourself. We would recommend an 18650 Battery Pack without a Speaker which can be found on Amazon. Keep in mind that you will also need an 2.2 Ohm 3 Watt Resistor so as to not blow out your LED. A 2 Ohm 3 Watt Resistor will work as well but it might get a little warm. We definitely recommend the 2.2 Ohm 3 Watt resistor. You can find wiring diagrams for our Sabers on our Saber Forum here: http://www.saberforum.com/index.php?PHPSESSID=p4oedo0ftn3t78tvv612ublt94&board=9.0.

So, I purchased some 18650 batteries, resistors, a charger, and an "18650 Battery Pack without a Speaker". Amazon has no clue what an 18650 Battery Pack without a Speaker is, so I purchased battery holders that should fit end on end into the hilt.  Unfortunately, Amazon does not sell a battery holder for an 18650 battery that would fit inside the hilt. 

After spending/returning/figuring/wasting products, I'm now thinking of purchasing this:

Thoughts or help before I waste more time/money/effort/products would be much appreciated!
Thanks!
