Serious Battery Problem

[SiIV]

I was adjusting my battery contact because a battery was loose, this happens pretty regularly.
However, this time one of the contacts for the negative ends fell off.
This is really bad.
Does anyone know if this is repairable? My gp2x won't turn on

"Fell off" or "broke off" ... big difference .. if you could take a picture, and post it here, it may help ..

Either way, replacement with a coil spring will fix it for good .

If worse comes to worse, you can hack in a 2AA holder from an electronics/hobby store.
