"Flip" Saddle

Having trouble finding a "Flip" Saddle, the ones you Tip up to put the Battery down the back seat. Any tips? Proper name?

It's not the saddle that flips, it's the seat-pin. Most people refer to the seat-pin as the seat-post, but the seat-post is actually the tube that the seat-pin sits in.

Check if it is 27mm (quite common a long time ago) or 27.2mm (still standard for 'narrow' tubes). Seem rare in 27.2 (closest I can see is https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/282369337340), probably impossible to find in 27mm.

If you've got quick release seatpost clamp it is just as quick to remove the post altogether to fit/remove the battery.
