I'd been trying to figure out a way to mount this hailong pack to my RBF Cruiser (Root Beer Float, see this build thread), and there wasn't enough room on the seat tube, and I didn't want to hang it upside-down on the top tubes.

Instead I came up with this little doodad that allowed me to connect a straight battery mount to a curved surface with hose clamps.
See photos below for the rough build progression:

I intend to make the design parametric so I can size it to any downtube. I'm also considering whether to sell them online, but will likely provide a few common configurations of the STL file for free on thingiverse.
