battery pack holders

Hi all: Where can I get good quality AA battery holders in 4 cell
configuration. I need them in the 4 square mounted style, such as radio Smile
#270-383
I can't get any amperage at all out of the El-cheapo radio shack ones. I
tried new AA alkalines and still cant get enough amp output to work
properly. I only need 250 mah output, and cannot get that out of the RS junkers.
I have found my robot problem to be the battery pack/holder. if I use a
solderd nicad pack I can run the robot. as soon as I go to battery holders,
the robot wont run.
Thanks all.


Very respectfully, your obedient servant.

    Look at the Keystone aluminum battery holders.

    www.parallaxinc.com had the best of the battery holders.
    They have a heavier guage wire that works a lot better.
