The file '4 AA Battery Holder Pack V3 3D Printer Model' is (stl,zip) file type, size is 1014.2KB.
Improved battery holder, holds 4 AA batteries. Uses snap lock lid and spring contacts.
I'll add build details in post processing once version 2 of this finishes printing - if you need details sooner check out my Gutter Downspout 180 Joint project on how to use filament joints.
BOM:
Optional nut and screw if you need a more secure lid but after testing I found built in latch to be sufficient
Files updated 9/4/2020, tweaked some of the fit issues and added a snap on type connection to the bottom, I'd still glue together the bottom and the case but this might hold without glue
Updated 9/5/2020, improved fit issues with the bottom, added (+) / (-) indicators and clarified wiring routes
Updated 9/9/2020, minor tweaks to bottom and top
Updated 9/10/2020, caps were too small for larger diameter wire and post were too flimsy to hold cap in place, revised caps to be larger and use glue on installation
