An 18650 wonāt fit in there unless you remove structural supports which I wouldnāt remove.
An 18500 or a 14650 both fit great. A 14500 will fit right in the AA holder.

all the structure will be replaced by a tube structure for the battery and a rounder (actually elliptical) handle with MOAR infillā¦ we both want ultimate crash survive-abilityā¦ itāll be an all new caseā¦ no frillsā¦ a basic switch, Iām working my way through a low tech mechanical battery disengaging switch, no charger section, no USB, maybe an SOC but maybe notā¦
a simple remote that you wonāt have to think about for a year

I trust you change both sprockets and the chain when that happens

I did not.
The chain itself got replaced not too long ago because the old one was all banged up and some links were stuck which I couldnāt bend out. Never saw any wear on it aside from that. I think Iād burn though many 9T motor sprockets before the chain starts to show wear.

itās your board and your budget brotherā¦ and yeah the wear is understandable, think of the pinion speed and contact area

I did some googling and understand why you suggest that 
I figure esk8 isnāt putting quite the miles, torques, and speeds as a motor cycle. I donāt know the strength of bike chains so I may just be gaslighting myself if my chains are indeed weaker than cycle ones in their own specific useage however I feel confident in that.
I do have a drawer with meters of extra chain though so itās on me haha.

iāve used chains on a lot of crap for a lot of yearsā¦ and when you see a pinion. or a counter-shaft sprocket that fuckkedā¦ we swap everythingā¦ think of how often than pinion is phukking up that chain, and then the chain fukking up your wheel gearā¦
as you well knowā¦ you have a chain drive esk8 and I do notā¦
