Connect it to your pedalboard's PSU and your favorite PNP or fuzz circuit. When the external power is switched on/off, so is the battery!

Apart from my obvious failure at finger-painting....

What are those standoffs in the pCB?

It keeps the assembly from rattling around in the enclosure. There are standoffs on either side of the pcb to "suspend" it in the enclosure.

The drill template will also have markings for holes in the event you want to secure the standoffs to the enclosure, but as you can see from Figs build, it looks cleaner without them.

They should be here soon, they're on the way.

What size standoffs did you use?

I used 20mm on one side and 5mm on the other. I imagine several combinations with the same total would work. Robert pointed out that smarter people would have painted the other side of the enclosure for convenience when changing the battery.

Thanks. I suppose those are standard M3 threads.

That's correct.

My Battery Bitches ... erh Battery Box Micro PCBs... arrived yesterday.
I also ordered the Kemet relays from PPCB, blindly, thinking they were for the BBMs.

No worries, as I needed the Kemets for the Basic & Intelligent relay bypass boards anyway. At least with having the latter and the Kemets, I'm not entirely unintelligent.

Looks like I need to order a couple — *squints, but gets out the magnifying function on the so-called smart phone*—
... A-4.5W-K summink or tuther thingerjiggies.
