I have read a few post whereas Pila owners made note of the battery rattle using lithium batteries. Could one not make a trip to the local Home Improvement Center e.g. Lowes, Home Depot, Mernards etc to pick up the proper PVC Pipe making sure the inside diameter would suffice the lithium diameter and that the outside diameter would eliminate the rattle. Would this set up work for that problem. I think it would. There must be some way you could rig a sleeve so to speak inside the battery chamber?

Would the PVC work ok though providing the correct id & od are predetermined?

Why use PVC? The paper works great!?

I just thought the PVC Tubing cut down to size and with correct id & od to would be more efficient. The paper would suffice also but thought it might be more of a hassle after time?
