SNES Save battery replacement suggestions?
SnesGuy:
Decided to do all the RPGS I bought recently and haven't played yet.
Well 4 out of 6 of the boards don't give me enough room for the style battery clip I'm using.
Going to check radio shack but I don't have any hope for that.
Any suggestions on Style of clip?
SnesGuy:
Went to radio shack and they didn't have a single coin battery holder. Not surprised.
wiggy:
I use these
They can be added right to the board if you're crafty. I'm writing up a little how-to and I'll toss it on my blog when it's done (it's really straightforward).
SnesGuy:
I had thought about using those originally. Just wasnt sure how i would install them. Mine are just a bit too thick if installed on the board. Might try taking a dremel to one and see if i can get it to fit.
Would really like to get em done before xmas. One of my family members is getting me a retro duo portable :p

Here's a pic that I lifted off of google. I like "A" best personally, and they tend to have the best fit and look on the board - you can grab them off of eBay. I've also seen pics of "B" and they work great as well if you don't mind the cream color. :D "C" is the one Wiggy showed you and that works great as well. Sucks that "D" is the most common and the only one that doesn't fit on the board. ::)
