Anyone know of a decent quality battery snap? The RadioShack ones are tormenting me to no end (breaking off no matter how well I solder em to connections). They easily fail on me and I can really use some advice. I'd hate to order something without hearing suggestions first.

Perhaps consider making your builds adapter-only?

yeah, mine are mostly adapter only, but you could make your own? I've pulled apart dead 9V batteries to turn them into clips for my testing. couple of wires and heat shrink with holes cut for the terminals.earthtonesaudio wrote:Perhaps consider making your builds adapter-only?

yes! make your own! all you need is a dead 9V, some thick ass wire, and some hot glue.

Thanks guys, I'll definitely try makin' my own. Sometimes I miss the obvious till it slaps me in the back of my head. I blame too much 70's morning cartoons...
