Hi Carlos,
Just another take on your problem:
I am currently building a small external box containing a 9volt battery to
replace the A176 in my portable setup.
The costs for this are less than �25 euros.
I can imagine some person that is a more seasoned electronics person than me
also including a voltage inverter in this design.

greetings,

Ernst
