Have ya figured out some sort of cover or strap to hold in the batteries if, for example, you keep the pack in a bag ?

Thanks for the pics!!
.... The original charger for a N800 says DC 5 V. However measured it's 7.2 V, which is reasonable because it must LOAD. 5V may load but slowly. However be careful ! Don't be surprised if after a day or so your battery starts heating or something. See earlier threads. You could of course boil an egg or someting if its happens.

Her's what I'm working on. .... I want to promote the dynamo from my bike. Might work / not work : It's 6 Volt AC . A bottle of wine for the first working specimen. (Appellation d'Origine Contrôlée VDDW: Very Dry Dutch White Wine)
