Need better 8-cell AA battery holder

Does anyone make a *good* 8-cell AA battery holder? One not made of flimsy
plastic that melts when you try to solder a wire to it's terminals? Or,
more prefferably, one that comes *with* red and black wires already attached
to the Positive and negative terminals?

A snap-on cover would be nice too, so it looks like it's meant to be there,
rather than an afterthought...

Thanks,

Dave
