Battery holder

Hi.

I have a battery holder like this

 

Well, I have another holder for 8 AA alcaline batteries, but without wires, it just have press-stud terminator. 

And I want to build this "robot":

What can I do to modify this battery holder?

or

Just have to buy another one?

 

Thks,

Jorge.

 

If your 8 cell holder has the “snaps” like the one above,

you should be able to purchase a 9v battery connector to add wires to it.

Re: 9v battery connector

You mean this, right?

But, I not found any information about: Add wires to battery holder with press-stud.

I mean any video or pdf or doc, with any “idea” to solder the wires to press-stud connector.

I don’t want to damage the battery holder.


Why would you need to solder to the snaps?

You buy the 9v battery connector and solder to the wires that come off of it.

Re:

I tried few seconds ago, soldering the press-stud connector with female-female cable… cutting both ends.

Multimeter did not show any change.

I mean 0V (with 8 batteries AA well placed).

But, if measure both pole (battery holder positive and negative) it show 12.50V

 

 

some universal adapters do

some universal adapters do have a 9 volt clip you could cut off. like this one:
