That little box should be the battery box. But what I don't get is....why no retractable cord for the 801?

Nice find! I ordered 3pcs 10440 batteries from Batteryspace.com a few weeks ago, and while the batteries are great, it took them 3 days from receipt of payment just to get my order to UPS. Bear in mind that I live within a half hour drive from them (but they don't allow local walk-in pickup), it took five business days to receive my order - not the fastest turnaround.

This 4xAA battery case on eBay seems like it may have some potential. I have asked the seller to provide some basic information regarding the output current (though I would expect it depends on the batteries you provide), and hope to hear back shortly:

Btw, I got the case AND I GOT THE DEALZ. The problem I got with the other solutions are they are expensive and you have choice with the cheap solution

I hit up slickdeals.net and found a deal. I got 2 packs of 2450 mah energizers (8 battery's) for I think 8 dollars after rebate.

That's 20 dollars for the same .... your gonna get with the kensington. Think for yourself and make it happen. I'm pretty pleased
