Fortunately that looks like a common pack sold on Amazon.
It is a common battery pack, just have to make sure it has the plug at the end to connect to the control box. I have two Minelab XT17000’s and they both came with this set up. I borrowed one to use in my Sov.

Are those 4 or 8 packs ?
4 packs
Yes there are 4 AA alkaline battery in each pack so the total is 8 AA total, this is the spare alkiline pack that came with the Sovereigns and a few other Minelabs. I just ordered in the battery holder from Amazon and got the 2- 9 volt hook ups too and connect to the battery pack and hook that up to the connector to plug into the Sovereign that I had to connect in series so it would put out 12 V. It works good and runs great. Now this will not work using 8 rechargeable AA battery because they only have 1.2 volts per cell so together they are only 9.6 volts, but needs 12 volts.
Now what I need to finish this set up is a good coil for the Sovereign to put on it. The new 8 inch Slimline I was going to use, the cable housing is cracked up and falling off, the coil is new and hanging on the wall. Anyone have a extra coil for the Sovereign or know where to get one as they are hard to find.
