Mercury Battery Replacements

[John Robertson]

MR 9 + silver oxide 386
I have been using these for about five+ years in my Leica M5 and CL with no problems.
The Wein cells were a pain in the **** especially as the CL battery chamber is inside the camera.

I ended up buying some zinc air cells. Put one in with a bit of foil and it seems to work fine. Just got to see how long they last.
Thanks for the advice
