Hi all,

I have been hitting dead ends on my search but I found my grandfather's Sears Light Meter

The only problem there is no directions and I can't tell what battery it would use (I have the battery cap its just off in the picture)

Here are some pictures, any help will be greatly appreciated

By the looks of this older meter (can someone say Gossen Luna Pro) and the size of the battery compartment I would say it takes the PX625 mercury battery...
 
I have that same light meter, it takes a PX625, so that means a Wein zinc-air nowadays. The mercury PX625 are long gone.
