Does anyone know where you can order a plastic 9v battery holder with
a snap off cover that flush mounts in a project box, guitar body,
etc?
It would be like the AA battery holder in this Synsonics Terminator
guitar except for 9v...


There are a few he

$16 for a battery holder!!?#$

Bring your Vaseline.

Do you have any better suggestions for what Mad Sci Jr. wants?


Maybe "Figure H" here..?
http://www.mouser.com/catalog/630/1742.PDF

And it's only $4.


It doesn't really lend itself to mounting in a guitar body like the
examples he gave but it might work for what he wants, and why didn't you
say so in the first place, why did it take someone else goading you in
to it after you made some snide comment about someone else's positive
suggestion?


Because I figured someone else might have the wits to look in the Mouser
catalog "in the first place".I had assumed that everyone checks
Mouser/Digikey,etc. My bad.
That was the first place I looked,and the first example I found.I'm sure
there are other sources,if ya look around a bit.

$16 for a battery holder is robbery,IMHO.
