Casio CZ/ VZ/ FZ - Pro Series

I don't know what the original poster meant, but I can think of 2
advantages to doing it the way it's described.

1. If you use a 9V battery snap, you will always have your choice of
powering it with a 9V or 4 x AA.

2. If you use a 9V battery snap, you will be able to remove the
battery block if you need to.  For example, some cases won't come
apart without taking off the battery block.  Some machines I have,
there's a gap into the battery compartment big enough to feed a 9V
snap through, but not big enough to feed a battery block through.

And of course they make nifty battery blocks that have 9V style snap
connections on them:

I don't know if that's the correct answer or not, but it's something
to think about.
