He's welcome to it if he wants it. I'm not stingy if somebody does me a huge favor.

One question though. How would a 9v Battery hookup fit in? Like if you wanted it to also have that option? Just double up over the same connections? Or is it different?

I've heard they are slow from various places, but have received my orders within a week every time.
