π Battery Holder β No Solder Required!Looking for a quick and clever way to connect two AA batteries in series? This is your print!Instructions:Print as normal, but pause at layer 15.Insert a medium paperclip (~33mm long) into the slot.Resume printing and remove the parts when complete.The lid fits tightly, so if it doesnβt come off easily, try soaking the whole part in hot water to soften things upβespecially if your printer or filament isn't perfectly calibrated. I used PLA, but PETG may be a better choice for durability.Once printed:Insert the other two paperclips into the small slots in the lid. These will press against the battery terminals and make contact when the lid is snapped on.Attach wires directly to the paperclipsβno soldering or spot welding needed!β οΈ Disclaimer: This is meant for low-current, low-voltage applications only, and not intended for continuous use. Itβs more of a functional hack than a safe, long-term solution.Happy printing! π§
