I prefer a wad of paper towels and masking tape for batteries on low g
flights personally.
I also change twist and tape wires when I change batteries. That's usually
whenever I don't remember the last time I changed the battery, so probably
< half a dozen flights.

Next, 9 volt battery holders…
You twister guys probably use chewing gum to hold the batteries in place.

Sheesh you guys, this is so complicated! Am I the only one who uses these
to arm the electronics? (Usually followed by a maniacal scream, “It’s
ALIVE!!!) ;-)
