Re: HP42S batteries Message #6 Posted by Mike Brady (San Francisco, USA) on 29 Nov 2003, 3:01 p.m., in response to message #1 by Michael
Mike ... you want to use long lasting Silver Oxide batteries in your HP-42S verses the short lasting Alkaline batteries ( i.e. LR44). The Silver Oxide battery's type is called a SW44 and are made by alot of battery manufactures. Some manufactures are the "Duracell 303/357" and the "Energizer 357". Buy a backup set of batteries too. Avaliable from these sites too.
