both suit BA/BF but may also fit others(batt size in an EL looks similar, haven't looked at an AU), the batt cover was made to suit the std batt dont know if it will fit a different batt, once i get 1 made i'll be able to see how or if it fits other models.

haven't worked out a price for the batt cover yet, have to see how long it takes to make & how the prototype turns out
