Batteries?
Message #1 Posted by Mike Brady on 16 Oct 2003, 12:26 p.m.

I've had difficulty finding alkiline and silver oxide batteries at local retailers, and some battery web sites are outrageously expensive. Anyone know if the site, www.sr44.com , is a good source for batteries? Any suggestions?

Have had good success with the batteries I got from that source. Used them in HP-20S, HP-32SII, and HP-42S with no problem. 12345 to delete.

I recently ordered some calculator batteries from BatteryMart.com. Their prices seem very reasonable if you order 5 or more of a given type. I paid $1.38 each for some Eveready 357s.

Any good camera shop will have SR/LR 44's. What does it matter what they cost, given the infrequent replacement? ...unless you do a lot of printing of course.

I bought replacements for my 32S at Radio Shack, bit pricey but I seldom change them.
