Eventually the batteries in my carts will go out and I want an easy way to just open the cart and slip a new CR2032 in. The electrical tape method is looking more nasty everyday and when its hot here in Texas that stuff gets nasty and sticky. So I was looking at some of these battery holders : http://shopping.microbattery.com/Part-BH-2032-CH28-Lithium-2032-Battery-Holder-Horizontal-Clip-Mount-28mm;jsessionid=t0lNMfvNJk7Jt8YN2hxhNZPpvxK9gyjbvM 5tGBT26BFbd6VxbywqZqvCnKnhTTH2F0xMG3xL1LCPBMBQSny7 13dF1ZLyq2xLdXCfsNpGsH6TsQsfSTSNkG4qMv32YGnL!-193810589 and was wondering how easy would it be to solder one of these into a SNES cart. Ask for the Gameboy Carts, I'm wondering if this particular one would be too big, so which would be the best for Gameboy, there seems to be a whole lot of coin holders so it's hard to choose. http://shopping.microbattery.com/s.nl/sc.2/category.708/.f

For SNES games, any holder that has pins spaced 18mm should work (that's the space between the battery's tabs).

I don't think that there is a battery holder that would fit inside a GB case.

I thought so,there isn't much room in the Gameboy Carts, oh well guess a Pokemon Stadium 2 data dump is the best option lol. Ask for the SNES, would a 20mm be pushing it? I can't seem to find 18mm and there seems to be alot of 16mm's as well. Thanks for the help.
