Where would I go to get an external battery box for an older Ovation with the battery located inside? My hands are big and I have pulled up the old style rosette a couple of times going inside to change the battery.

Of course, then I need to find somebody willing to install it......

Paul,
Pick up some adhesive backed velcro and instead of attaching with the single quarter turn fastener use the velcro to get it to stick. Leave a generous tab that can be grabbed using a hemostat (roach clip to everyone else).

And the next time you are on surveillance look for suspects with small hands and they might be encouraged to help you out.

I should have been more clear. I want a battery box with a door on the side of the guitar so I don't have to go in thru the soundhole to change the battery.
