Today was the day to replace the batteries in the Rickshaw that needed replacement at the end of last season. The headlight needed 3 AAA batteries and the canopy needed 4 C cells. The taillights are still going reasonably well on the 4 AA batteries installed two or three years ago.

On a hunch I went to Rite-Aid guessing there might be batteries on sale. It was my lucky day. The Rite-Aid batteries were buy one, get one free, and both packages (4 C and 8 AAA) were priced at $6.49. Nice.

Here’s some video showing the canopy and how the lights and battery boxes for it are positioned:
