Here's some pics of my Kick, in my Galileo --
The 1st pic shows how it sits right at the top of the battery tube, so that center post can contact the battery on the bottom and the battery post on the top side.
The 2nd pic -- see the blue square? That phillips head in the center is what you fiddle with to adjust the setting. That silvery-looking blob at the 8 o'clock position has the little doohickey that gets pushed in, when the Kick is properly inserted in the tube.
The best way I've found for adjusting the position of it in a telescoping mech is, go ahead and put the topper you're using onto the top cap of the mech; put the top cap (with topper attached) onto the mech; THEN insert the kick and the battery in the mech -- because of that floating center pin; if you put the whole mech together before putting the topper on, it will push that floating pin too far up; having the topper in place when you put the top cap onto the mech, keeps that center pin in the correct position.
I think it was DavidOck who taught me all this, in the old vv3 thread -- so hat's off to David!!

I saw those kicker thingys on clearance somewhere recently for $5 or less.
