If I understand correctly, you just want to be able to power with a 9v battery? You’ll need one of each of these (or equivalent):

Then check out the wiring diagram for the Kliche (page 5 of 6) to see how it’s hooked up:
Hope that helps
Edit: oh I think I see what you’re talking about. Looks like it doesn’t take the standard dc barrel jack on this board nor the standard audio jacks. Sorry, haven’t built one of these yet. I’m sure your still be able to do it, I believe the dc jack required still has the sleeve for battery negative you could solder too, then you’d just have to figure out which post on the audio Jack you’d need to wire to. I’m sure someone else could clear that part up.
Edit again: now that I’m looking at that particular dc jack, it may not have the additional v+ to battery -looks like the third leg is a directional… now I’m confused as well.. we need someone who knows what they’re talking about.

So, it’s probably not to difficult, however you’ll have to forgo having the jacks mount to the board, and wire them up instead. Personally I wouldn’t mess with it.
If memory serves the inside pads (closest to the middle of the board) of the jacks are the tip, middle are the ring and last are the sleeve. As for the DC I I’m not sure. It looks like the square pad is the ground (sleeve), and the pad closest to the output jacks is the ring. But maybe check that if you have a multimeter handy.

Nice. I was worried that would cause the battery to stay active when the input was unplugged. Go to know.
