Thanks Eric , yes , I got some 2 “ copper and cut it to length and cut it in 2 pieces , the batteries slide down and stay tight with friction. With the 4 batteries it make the glow plug glow nice and bright. And yes I do seem to remember the print out . Was it for the 3 battery pack or the four battery pack ?getback wrote:Nice !

Good work You have another thread for soldered four cells, but it is better to use copper strips. Battery change is easier.
I made reproduction of 769-3 battery box. 769 battery boxes are bigger I see. I can made a reproduction of 769 type, however it can not be printed on one A4 page, but A3. However home printers can not print on A3 size sheets, so a reproduction can cost a little much more at a printing house.

That would bee a good thing so it would last and not get fuel soaked @NEW222 has a printer and was experiencing with projects at one time , Jason also but seems to bee lost in action ? 
I see now the super has 4 D cells and other only 3 I bet it does do a bright element . I know the 2 cell one I got from some lot purchases is not that good >> I like my panel but it is a pain if your not fueling and don't need the extra space for storage .
