My bad, the AAA holder takes two batteries, I've edited my earlier post.
@pfeerick: you could, quite easily and conceivably, fashion your own holder, or indeed use any holder you liked to hold a 3v battery to power the RTC.
To those not wishing to spend any money yet wanting the benefits of a RTC, I would strongly advise against soldering directly to a battery and directly to the board. Use an appropriate holder and connector.
Direct soldering could damage the battery, the board, and/or yourself.
