Can anyone tell me how to wire **broken link removed** kit for battery use? (Please don't say read the PDF data sheet. Trust me, I have.) I would like to use 3 AAA batteries.

Like the guy said on Allaboutcircuits...just give it 5 volts worth of batteries, give or take a little, and see if it works down to 4 volts as the batteries get tired.

Can you take a look at the circuit and help me out with where to connect my battery leads instead of the DC power input?

Connect the batteries to the DC input, then it should work just fine.

First of according to the instructions it needs a minimum of 8V to operate the circuitry. If you want to connect wires the + lead can be connected to the anode of the diode near the power jack(blue square on my addition), the - can be connected to the - of the capacitor near the same diode

Heres what I've got right now, and it isn't working: The positive lead is on X2, the negative on the other DC input hole.
Regulator is bypassed with a wire jumping the two outside holes together, the middle is left untouched.
Also, I removed the LED because I was unsure of polarity and simply bridged it with a wire.
Anything wrong with that? Why might it not be working?
