[Elecraft] Securing a battery in EC1???

[gehringc at charter.net]

Guy,
I have used a small strip of 2 1/2 " sheet aluminum.  Bending the aluminum at right angles to fit the battery, then leaving 2" tabs over the edge of the battery with velcro on the tabs and velcro on the case.  The velcro locks the aluminum strap to the case holding the battery firmly in place.  I may have a digital photo of the arrangement.
