Battery Box can be purchased for a little as $2.50 on eBay.  Or for about $7 on Amazon.  The right-angle power connector can be had at Console5 for about $3.  Simply solder the wire of your choice.  The wire I used was just what I had on hand.  I am getting about 4 hours of play on Energizer Rechargeable batts.  I used to insert them into the unit, but it was VERY tight fit and stressed the Battery cover.  So, now this is what I use.
