Default RE: How to secure receiver and battery

Sorry, I was talking about small open hooks with a screw on one side that you get at hardware stores. Like $0.99 for a pack of them. They come in various sizes and are usually in the hardware dept. You can bend the eye of the hook closed more with pliers if needed. It looks like these except it is an open hook instead of a closed eye.

Cappa, I screw in 2 small open eyelets into the bottom or side of the fuse and then just strap the foam wrapped receiver/battery down with a #64 rubber band to each eyelet. Cheap, easy method, and secure.
That sounds like an idea I might use. What type eyelet? When I searched Tower for 'eyelet' I got the wrong items, I'm sure.
