John,
If you are looking for 11.4mm x 5mm button cells (**357, **44, *76
depending on the chemistry and drain) Radio shack sells 6 volt "n"
sized batteries which contain 4 cells. They might even offer the
choice of alkaline or silver oxide, it's been a while. Not as cheap
as your pointers but might be fresher.
Bloody expensive as hell for those things from rat shack and at those
prices I wonder how much they do move.
My caliper battery went dead and I went by rat shack and IIRC it was
$6.95 for one from them.
Lived with the flashing display and ordered 10 of them from one of the
battery places online for about a wash after shipping.
Even the grocery store had a 3 pack of them for less than that.
Pardon, but I think of rat shack in terms of desperation :-).
Take care, Vikki.
