Title: Battery replacement?
Post by: dgalvin66 on January 22, 2019, 01:40:27 PM

  I need to replace a few batteries and remember reading something awhile back that there was  a setup I could change to so I do not have to mess with soldering a battery again down the road. Does anyone have the info on the battery holder that I would solder in place of the current battery?
  I will be doing this on 2 standard boards and 2 super boards, on with the wing board.
Thanks

Mouser electronics,   I use these all the time,  for the 1/2 AA battery,   their part number,  12BH1/2AA-2P-GR.     thru hole pins,  just shape and cut to size , then tin the lead and solder to the board contacts/  never have to solder again.

I've had good luck with these.  They have solder tabs like the original battery.  They're longer than a 1/2AA battery so it can get a little tight soldering it in place, but they work well.
