The main types of battery compartment are detailed below: 
Integral Battery Compartment

Lidded Compartment
Case with battery holder moulded into the base section and separate clip-on lid for easy access to the batteries. The lid can also be secured by a fixing screw, e.g. as required for medical applications

.........................................
Lidded battery compartment with battery cradles
Lidded Compartment
with Screw-in Battery Cradles
A large aperture, moulded into the the base section, is used for mounting screw-in battery cradles. The cradles are available for different cells e.g. 2xAA, 4xAA, 1x9V etc. A clip-on/screw-on lid provides secure access to the batteries
AAA, AA & 9V cells
.........................................
Plug-in battery compartments
Plug-In Battery
Compartment
For application which require
frequent re-charging, for example, data logging devices. The plug-in
