# CR2032 Toaster

This is intended to slot in vertically into a 1/2AA battery holder seen on many Macintosh computers for the PRAM battery. It will allow the use of the less expensive, easier to find and less leaky CR2032 coin batteries.

This is meant to be used laying flat in the battery holder like so:

There's also two extra through holes to solder wires for other uses.
