Short Circuit Protection circuit design help

Planning on making a power pack consisting of 4 1.2V or 1.5V AA batteries in parallel. I am now trying to create the same type of circuit as the one pictured, or something simpler and better, but to be compatible with AA batteries. Are there components available to make this happen? Ive been researching online and couldnt find any such designs for my specific application at the 1.2-1.5V range. I am not an expert at all with electronics so I have no idea what Im doing. Suggestions for a new, better design, or anything like that would be highly appreciated.

    That’s basically a low-side switch controlled by two buttons. I built and verified something similar. A toggle ON/OFF button. The low-side switch feature can be kept. The schematic in the picture looks like the operational. I would add a capacitor in parallel to the KEY2 to slow down the rising edge when releasing the KEY2.

    @techielew is this issue still alive? Do you need some assistance?
