There is no real need for a complicated adaptor. I have used a small conical spring, like you find in the bottom of flashlights or like these

together with an A544/4LR44 6v battery seems to work fine. Just place the spring under the battery cap with the narrow end on the battery + end.

Why use anything at all when the best battery for the camera (A32PX) fits perfectly without any adapter, spring, tin foil, complicated arrangement of bells and whistles etc. etc.?
