RTC battery holder options
#1
Hi , all


I didn't originally purchase an RTC battery holder with my Rockpro64 , honestly not knowing the benefit of having one. Now I would like to get one , however to purchase the one fro the pine store incurs a courier charge of £30 in the UK.
I thought I would be able to find loads of alternative options for such a simple device on ebay or amazon ( although of course I would rather get one from the pine store ) , but it seems a replaceable RTC battery holder is a rare thing.

does anyone know of anywhere I can get an alternative, or possibly know the name of the connector so I can "DIY" a standard AAA holder and add the connector ?

thanks in advance

Wow I can't believe it's that simple , I would have never found this if I had searched all day .

Thank you so much , I'm sure the pine store version is of a better quality but until I buy something larger from pine64 to justify the courier charge , I need to purchase this sooner rather than later.
