Graphite chassis was designed for the battery to run down the center. I hope you are not chopping up decent white battery cups :!:

Then why are the holes even there? Are they for something else?

right now I'm using a set that have the ends cut off-- it requires using Velcro on the bottom to keep it from sliding out of the boxes... :?

I'm considering fabricating some new ends out of aluminum that will attach to the cut nylon boxes, or fabricating entirely new aluminum ones.

agreed-- why are the holes there? After all, they line up perfectly with the battery boxes. The only thing i can think of is that a 6 cell 'hump' pack might have worked...
