PX27 DIY Help

[ORBITALBOX]

Does anybody have any DIY instructions on how to make a PX27 from 4 LR44 1.5v cell batteries?

I used the cut off end of a Tester Pocket-Pak Rosin Core Solder tube and placed the four LR44 silver cell batteries in it. Then I used a soldering iron to melt the ends over (a small crimp at 6 points) so the batteries wouldn't fall out. It worked very well for me. I do recommend putting Battery Saver by Tender Corp. (or any other conductive contact cleaner antioxidant) on the ends of the batteries.

Thanks. Though a bit technical, but I think I can find the materials you recommended at Radioshack or equal places.

Why not just buy a silver PX27? Saves all the trouble and gives the same result! 😉
