[Milsurplus] TS-352

[J. Forster]

Some batteries are made up of standard cells. For example the BA-2 is made
up of 15 "AA"s.

What I did was make a custom cardboard box out of light cardboard (from
the back of a writing pad) and put the cells inside. Painted OD it looks
pretty original. Pics on request.

Actually I used Radio Shack battery holderts, so it doesn't have to be
remade over and over.

Best,
