Battery power for pedals

I made a 18650 battery powered pedal power, with two MP1584EN DC to DC converters that can handle 2A (each) continuous. It works great but changing and charging the individual batteries are a royal pain in the rear. Version two coming soon. I'll just be able to slap one of my DeWalt 20v batteries in and BINGO!

I was thinking of making a production version and selling on eBay, but then I remembered I'm retired and don't like working anymore, lol....

Posted 'cuz of the numerous potential applications....

I had a nightmare gig last week when my power supply died. I ended up using the two channels on my amp and a fuzz pedal for the rest of our set. The fuzz was the only diy pedal I've added a battery snap to.

It could have been a lot worse but it did suck doing the whole gig with no delay and using my amps rather poor reverb.
 
Where does one find these? I have a few Bosch and DeWalt packs that would be cool to use.
Oops, I forget the link, again. I edited it into the original post as well.
