Some research would suggest that I might actually have quite a small power bank already, even if it is a little bit of a tight fit in the helmet. I’ve got an Anker PowerCore II 1000mAh which measures 9.5cm x 6.2cm x 2.2cm I can’t seem to find anything slimmer in depth than that - so probably best to stick with it I guess!

Belt system for Thigh Armour and E-11 case holster is take shape… Webbing has been measured out, cut to size and ends sealed shut with an iron to stop fraying Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Update time! The lens for the E-11 are both too small so have ordered ones that are a bit larger and should fit correctly. I’ve also picked up all the paints I need for the helmet internals and E-11 as well as cloth for the helmet padding I want to upgrade. In addition, I’ve managed to install my TroopaCoola fan system. Excellent piece of kit, really easy to put into place. Had to try a couple of positions to make sure I could still hear with the fans on and to make sure that my mic doesn’t pick up anything with them running. The set close to my jawline with an upward facing position seemed to work best. The battery I have at the moment is a little larger than ideal, so it doesn’t fit in the helmet very well. Will look at getting something more suitable but for what I had laying about the house, it works fine. Cable management of the system is complete and I’ve removed it in prep for painting the internal matte black once the other upgrades are complete. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Will update once I’ve made more progress Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Unforutantely the hand guards have, overnight, gone back to the old position. I'm going to try heating them and leaving them clamped for longer and this might help. Either way, this is a before/after: Before: After

I also think I've managed to fix the issue with my gloves - This YouTube video was really useful. It suggested heating the latex with a heat gun. I'd only tried hot water before. Once they were heated, i wrapped them in a paper towel and then clamped the paper towel to hold the hand guards in shape. This is the end result: Is this better than before? They are much flatter and now concave instead of convex.

Ab buttons have been removed, cut down and stuck back down with e6000 so that they have 90 degree edges and have correct placement:

E-11 Trigger has now been cut out:

Good shout - had a spare racket grip lying around though, so i've used that for the moment. Very soft! Will use that until it wears out and then source some pipe/tubing

Started to fill the gaps/bubbles on the E11 Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Touch up work started on the E11 - metal looks much better now in my opinion Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Created a stencil and sponged white paint onto it - seems to have worked quite well. Have one of these on each side of the case Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
