What do you do about adhesive residue?  On particularly hot days this
could become a guncky mess.  Not trying to shoot you down Mark, but I
have not had good luck with electrical tape coming off cleanly (maybe
I'm buying too cheap a grade :-}).  

Try some stretch wrap made for wrapping foodstuffs.  A small patch
that wraps partiall around the case might be the ticket.  No residue
and quite reusable.  You might be the brunt of a few good natured
jabs, but you will not short out your battery pack inadvertantly.
Which, by the way, is made tougher from the get-go as Yaesu was smart
enough to recess the contacts.

Hope this helps.
