Battery adapters to use new batteries to reduce the voltage in my cameras.
The F2AS and EM should not need anything special, just S76 silver oxides.

There are endless listings on ebay. Just search for PX13 or PX25 adapters. There are also Wein (zinc air) cells, the correct size and voltage for older cameras, but they have a short life span of a couple of months once activated.

I bought and have used these...they work fine for the old PX625.

The Amazon ones are just passive metal battery holders. They do not have diodes or micro-circuits to adjust or stabilize the voltage of the new cell. How well do they work with the light meters in the cameras?Just message them on eBay or buy from Amazon , two for $12
They've worked fine for me. It's not like these decades old meters are all that accurate anyway.
Adjust the ASA/ISO to preference, comparing it to a known meter.
Many times I've just used appropriately sized o-rings that encircle the 357/303 silver oxides and approximate the physical size of the PX625.

Most of the MR-9 adapters listed on A* and e* are forgeries. You can get the real ones from Kanto Camera in Japan. Note that they have several sizes, some with voltage regulators and some not. There are good notes on the site for determining which one you need: SALE Battery Adapter

I don't know where you are located, but there is a good supplier in the UK, they ship abroad as well.
