Introduction: Free Nine Volt Battery Clips and Small Enclosures

Recycle your "dead" 9v batteries into something useful and help save the planet.

Step 1: Tools and Supplies

Tools:

Soldering iron

Flat head screwdriver

Supplies:

A 9 volt battery with a metal case (I recommend Duracell)

Solder

Two small bits of wire

Step 2: Open the Case

Use your screwdriver and pliers to carefully pry back the top of the case and empty all the contents of the battery.

Step 3: What You'll Find Inside

What should come out of the battery is 6 AAAA cells, the bottom cover, the top cover, and the case itself. If you had lollipops, a small rodent, and a sock come out of the battery then you may have done something wrong.

Step 4: Making the Battery Clip

Heat up your soldering iron and solder two your two wires onto the contacts on the back of the top cover.

Step 5: The Case

The Battery case can have many purposes. Some examples are: Flashlights, Holders for small electronic parts. Use your imagination. Check out my other instructable on how to turn it into an electric hand warmer/heater https://www.instructables.com/id/Electric_Hand_Warmer/

Step 6: The Cells

For more information about the AAAA cells and how you can use them see kipkays 9 volt battery hack. https://www.instructables.com/id/9_Volt_Battery_Hack/
