So I just bought this guy:

and I really don't know anything about it. Does anyone have any info for me? I don't know what kind of battery it's supposed to use or how to wire it, it came with some other parts and a bulb. Any help would be appreciated I cannot seem to find much online. It almost looks like a small 12v sealed lead acid battery would fit and work. Sorry I can't post pics.
 
So it occurred to me that "Big 6 Electric" probably meant 6v battery, so I got looking into it and I believe that is what I need. With screw on terminals instead of spring
