Jim, you didn't read the requirements. All of the ones I saw on the that
web page are open. He wants the cells to be out of sight, out of mind.
Once in a blue moon, I see them for sale surplus.

I've seen the Bulgin ones. I like the 4-cell model (drawer is nice feature).
But it needs to be 2x2 config (2 pairs of 2 cells in-line).

ask a question here if I hadn't done that already.

How hard would it be to make a plastic box to slide one of the open
ones into? 6 pieces of plexiglass, a hinge, maybe a latch, and some
plexiglass cement. Nothing to it!

For that matter, you could make a form from a couple of sticks, and
warm up a piece of plexiglass to wrap around the sticks, and voila!
Battery holder!

Good Luck!

Yeah, I'm guilty of that a lot too. I seem to have a talent for killing
off a thread.

Get a broken Garmin II/II+/III/III+ and chop it up (down?)

Last resort is to assemble one like you suggest. First I thought I'd exhaust
y'all by asking if there's a source for a single holder of 4x longitudinal
form-factor.

It's no too difficult to make your own.
I make custom cases using Delrin plastic and the spring and tab
contacts salvaged out of old remotes and such.
