just got a luna pro meter

[back alley]

this would have been easy to think through if i had less of a temper.

i got flustered and put the meter away and it wasn't till the drive home that my head went into gear.

If you REALLY had a temper, you would have fired that meter into the concrete sidwalk. 🙂

The names were different in different parts of the world. If you look up some of the different models you may find a likely suspect.

Joe,

You can always get 625 Zinc Air Wein cells on Ebay for $3.95 each. For some reason I thought the mercs were still available in Canada.

I don't think mercs are available anywhere legally now. The Wein battery is short-lived crap IMO. I had an older Luna Pro and got the $20 converter that fits around a smaller silver battery. If it's something really worth using it should be worth investing in a converter. Pays for itself really quick.

i think the batteries in it now are mercury.
the meter is accurate so i'm guessing they are the correct ones.

wayne, is your converter from gossen?
