Yes, the graphite battery is designed for the thumb screws. I don't mind those because your battery will never come loose. But, the fig disadvantage is for me was losing one of the thumb screws. The third item on your list the 4-40 screws with the holes for a body clip are a good alternative if you can find them. They take a very thin body clip.i
