    So I had ordered some 3-AAA battery holders and they arrived yesterday. I took one of them and added an orange wire which is my 3v tap, and then the red wire is the 4.5v line. I should have the circuit built today

    I am in the process of printing a modified wall box to try this out. I have made the changes needed to fit the new battery holder, just making a few tweaks.

    I have posted the new motion sensor box out on thingiverse for anyone interested.
