Re: Problem with battery contact
On the front of the board (the side with the components) scrape off the blue solder mask near the negative "-" solder pad to expose the copper layer and solder your negative wire to that.
On the back of the board, do the same nearthe hole for the positive "+" pad and solder the positive wire to that.
