    Take it to the hardware store and find one that fits man……its just a screw and there’s not really a market for “replacement big muff battery door screws” LOL

    The hardwarestore will have what you need for sure.

    That’s a real addiction :D

    AFAIK the case screws (at least on the old ones) are 4 x 1/4 PH PHL Self Tap screws 18-8 SS
    Mouser has them

    …or your local hardware store (but not mine apparently…I had to buy a bunch off ebay)

    Hmm, I though the topic name would have implied hetosexuality?

    Well there you go?

    The local hardware store is Bunnings who are generally crap. There is a local place which sells fasteners, but I’d have to buy $10 worth of screws, with either a flat or phillips head.

    I think one can buy a replacement battery housing screw for a RAT pedal.
    Getting back to the BMP, I thought that it would be quite common for the battery housing screw to get lost. It is a specialized screw as it has to have a knurled head to allow battery changes without tools I thought someone would sell it?

    Is it possible that BMP users are more anally retentive than RAT users as they don’t lose housing screws? ;)

    Thanks

    …. it’s not a ‘specialist’ screw (like a rat) it’s just a regular self tapping cross head screw.

    Thanks for all the replies, much appreciated. I think it should have a screw or something that allows a guitarist/roadie who’s had a few beers to quickly change batteries.
