Actually it’s for a clock radio and fire alarm. I can’t seem to line up the hole thingys.
Is it a 9v? Those are a pain, but the connector for that usually has some extra length on the wires so it can be pulled out a bit.
It may be mounted in a slide. I had mine a couple of years before I knew the connector could slide out.
Sigh….no. I got frustrated and quit after 20 minutes.
The battery and the clip/connector have to be, “Perfectly aligned”, I know because all the smoke detectors in the house have 9V volt.
It is only a back up in case of power failure anyway, isn’t it?
No, this is an old one. It’s the only power source.
Pictures of the situation, girlfriend.
Ugh, you poor thing. I have little arthritic hands and I have resorted to using those big-mouth adjustable wrenches to gently squeeze the connectors together.
ETA: look for YouTube videos that might help
