Encase the motor…use two brass studs to go through the hull to fix the casing to it, and use the studs to pass the battery through??? No need for wires then. Wing nuts/ rubber washers inside. Battery feed on crimp-on eyes on the studs. Easily removable. No external bits to see when on display.

You would think they would tell us what might be likely to happen!

I looked at small wnd up radios on Amazon but they were going out of stock as I pondered.

As we only food shop once a week we generally have more than 3 days supplies.
