Hello,
Either my web search terms are quite inadequate, or perhaps no one ever wants a conveniently pre-wired holder for batteries connected in parallel.
Tried at standard (USA) sites like DigiK-- and Mous--.
The in-series 2xAA=3V, etc., are even available at general merchandise retailers as shown in this pic from an A---zon listing.
Would appreciate comment.
Thanks for the self-help suggestion, and the product link (my search-terms must indeed have been inadequate)...
