Default AA-sized conductor (fake battery) wanted

The dowel and wire would be the most easily fabricated/accomplished for most
handy folks, I think.
If some cells are arranged end-to-end in the equipment's battery holder,
placing the dowel version between 2 other cells would eliminate the need for
a more sophisticated top and bottom terminal, which some battery holders
actually require.

Additionally, it's about as lightweight as can be, and durable (won't
collapse or leak, etc).

Better to just cut a dowel to size,cut a slot for a wire from end to
end,fold over the ends,maybe epoxy in place.

Cheap,easy. follows the KISS principle.
