A support for an electrical circuit such as that in a flashlight is provided so as to be powered by a four layer carbon-zinc battery of the type that is normally discarded with the rest of the apparatus used in an instant camera. The battery and housing are shaped so that the assembly is about wallet size and so that circuit may be energized simply by reciprocating the battery within the support.
