CR2032 battery holder that will fit in a SNES cart?

Do you have a technical question that doesn't really fit a specific console? Want some general info on electronics, hacking, making cookies, etc? Here's the place to ask! Go nuts.

CR2032 battery holder that will fit in a SNES cart?

Post by ArugulaZ » Fri Mar 13, 2009 7:44 pm

I've installed battery holders in Super NES cartridges, hoping to make it easier to replace the battery once it dies. However, the only problem with using a battery holder is that it generally won't fit inside the cartridge... it bulges a few millimeters on the side when the cartridge is closed. Is there a CR2032 battery holder that will fit inside the cartridge case? Any help you could provide would be greatly appreciated!

ya i had the same problem i could not get it to close. i ended up cutting the back of the case so it would close but i then super glued and ducted taped leads to the end of a cr2032 and soldered those leads into the where the battery connects into the game board and then taped that to the side of the case and closed it all up and it works great.
