Decision about taking the clear wrap off a 30Q

[Bimmerboy]

I have a SF C2 bored for 18650 but my 30Q is just a little too tight. It gets a little stuck in there without enough free movement for reliable operation. Trying to use it with a Sportac triple. Could'a sworn I had a bored 6P to try, but can't find it. May have even sold it and don't remember.

The 30Q has a clear wrap over what is I assume to be the original light raspberry sherbert colored wrap. The clear also looks to be holding a white plastic ring around the button top to minimize risk of anything shorting. Question is... does anyone recommend against taking off the clear wrap? It may give just enough clearance to freely move back and forth, but wondering what the experience out there might say. Safe enough?... lol.

Don't everybody answer all at once. 😜

I've decided against taking the wrap off. It'll see use as a backup to the other 30Q in a Viking Pro, or in some other way. It's a nice cell, so I'm not gonna' risk messing it up. I'll eventually find a way to use the triple.

Best to err on the side of caution with batteries.
