Pic of the battery:  





Housing Material
Material - Polycarbonates (PC),(tradename - lexan, Makrolon). Polycarbonate is a durable material, easily moldable, workable and can be thermoformed. It has high impact-resistance,   can be used over a greater temperature range. Since, Polycarbonate is highly transparent to visible light, a coating is applied to eliminate the transmission of light.

Dimension = “A” cm long and “B” cm in diameter.
cost - relatively less due to suction force design process


Total cost - approx $200
