Lost or damaged your battery holder? This White's penlight battery holder is the factory replacement for eight compatible White's metal detector models. It holds eight 1.5V AA penlight batteries and maintains a secure connection to your control box. The holder is designed as a direct-fit replacement for the V Series, DFX, XLT, MXT, M6, QXT, Quantum, and Classic SL detectors.
Why detectorists choose this holder
- Factory replacement fit: Designed by White's Electronics to match the original battery compartment dimensions and contact layout.
- Eight-cell capacity: Holds the full complement of AA batteries your detector requires for field operation.
- Broad compatibility: One holder fits eight detector model families, simplifying spare-parts inventory.
- Secure battery retention: Spring contacts and housing design prevent batteries from shifting during use.
When you need a replacement holder
Battery holders wear out from repeated battery changes, especially when detectorists swap alkaline and rechargeable cells frequently. Cracked housings, corroded contacts, and loose spring tension all reduce reliability. This replacement holder restores factory-spec power delivery. If your detector powers off intermittently or the battery door no longer latches cleanly, the holder is the likely culprit. Carrying a spare in your field kit eliminates downtime when the primary holder fails mid-hunt.
