    I just received two of these battery holders. Title says AAA, description says AA, they are indeed AAA, so the description is incorrect. They look very sleek and appear to be of solid construction, can't wait to use it in my project.

Look elsewhere

These are very cheaply made. The batteries will not make reliable contact unless a shim is inserted between the metal contact and the plastic case on the end opposite the wire leads.

Worked like a charm

I was working on a project that required some toying with voltage and amperage supply, and these battery packs are perfect for that. They were pretty good quality and I had no issues with them. I'd recommend them for projects for sure.

Defective Contacts

I ordered several of these and all of them are defective. One or both of the positive terminals do not make electrical contact with the battery terminal.

The gap is tiny - I needed a magnifying glass to see it - but it's there. I would upload a photo if I could.
