Like I said, it's easily a great deal more robust than one that was never munted. Not sure why that isn't apparent... Originally the flimsy plastic base was slightly reinforced by a flimsy bit of ally sandwiching the plastic by three bolts. Now there's a 3mm bit of ally plate running all the way across and along under the retention clips, and the three bolts are holding the glue ridges in compression (because I did it with washers in place) against the tube. It's solid as fuck.
Pretty sure the melting point is above what's necessary. Especially now that I soldered a wire inside the battery which was just twisted together for some reason, and had started to melt its way through the bottom...

Not sure its the intention of the hobby hot glue thats the logic hurdle here, champ.
All fun and games until theres a 4kg battery flying about a busy CW1 or deciding to eject and cause a spill in heavy traffic.
