yes, just solder the + wire to the flat spring battery terminal and
the - wire the the cone-shaped spring battery terminal. Those
terminals put out 6 volts (4.8 w/ rechargables). Is 6 volts to much
for that circit? (I don't think it is, so it should be just fine :))

BTW someone tried a lighting thing called TI-glow...it sucked :p
