Step 2Hack battery holder
when you buy the battery holder it will not fit in the tin, it was at this point when I thought "NOT COOL" and I went through an hour or two trying to make my own battery holder until at 11:00 I realized "WOW, I'm stupider than I thought!!!" and came to the realization that I could just cut out the center section of the original battery pack (or maybe I was just angry at it and wanted revenge the thing), it worked. It actually helps the lid close better so it won't fall open by accident.
once it's cut, go ahead and dry fit it, put it in, insert the batteries and push it as far to one end of the tin as you can then super glue it in
note on super glue: when using teh uberglue don't close the tin until it is completely dry or you will end up with the fumes drying onto the walls and you get the cloudy look that are in my pics, and also only glue in well ventilated areas so that you don't die
There I said it Now you can't sue me

Interesting, but unrelated little fact, that may already be well known: The fumes are more or less adhering to the oil in your fingerprints, so that cloudiness is palm/fingerprints, I think members of law enforcement use similar methods to get fingerprints off of 'strange' surfaces
