MPD battery holder not holding batteries tight enough. #2

The Memory Protection Devices battery holder used in rev C is not holding the batteries tight enough. This is causing issues with power supply ripple/processor lockup upon the board hitting a hard surface.

Switching to the old Tyco Electronics battery holders from rev B fixes the issue.

MPD has released a new battery holder series called the Snap Dragin. This holder consists of a base and a battery cover which snaps into position. This design is currently under consideration for replacing the battery holder.
