A 4×AA battery holder with press-stud (snap) termination, providing a portable power source for wearable and on-the-go projects. With four alkaline AA batteries, it delivers approximately 6V with 7,000–10,000 mAh of capacity — enough to power an Arduino Uno for over a week.
Rechargeable NiMH batteries (1.2V per cell) are recommended for a more stable voltage output over the battery lifetime, providing approximately 4.8V — close to the 5V many projects require.

Jargon buster
Plain-language definitions for the technical terms used above.
- e-textiles
- Electronic textiles are fabrics or clothing that include electrical parts such as conductive thread, sensors, LEDs, or small controllers. This matters because parts for e-textiles need to survive bending, sewing, and sometimes washing.
- microcontroller
- A microcontroller is a small computer on a chip that runs your program and controls connected inputs and outputs. For this product, it is the part that reads buttons and sensors, drives the display and speaker, and communicates over Bluetooth.
