The 1.6" leads can be springyfied by wrapping about half an inch on a large needle. Then the leads will be easy to slip onto the cut off leads from the original battery. The ROM 3 battery holder seems to require what's called a "1/2 AA" size battery. Replacement is easier than for the ROM-00/01; but, you're limited to a particular size, which makes it harder to find good deals at surplus places. Rubywand
