Description
The LR44 is the absolute standard among button cells for analog cameras. It fits countless models from Nikon, Minolta, Olympus, Pentax, and many more. Usually, two stacked cells are needed to provide the 3V operating voltage for the light meter or electronic shutter.
Honest technical classification:
These are alkaline batteries. They are the inexpensive and widely used standard solution. Unlike silver oxide cells (SR44), which maintain a very constant voltage until the end, the voltage of alkaline cells slowly drops over their lifetime. For most cameras (like the Minolta X-series or Nikon FE), this is not a problem because the bridge circuits compensate for it. However, if you want maximum precision over years, go for SR44. For everyday use and as an affordable replacement, these LR44 are perfect.
Note on old mercury cells (PX675):
These batteries have the same dimensions as the old, banned PX675 mercury cells but a higher voltage (1.5V instead of 1.35V). If your camera strictly requires 1.35V, the LR44 will cause incorrect readings. In this case, we recommend zinc-air hearing aid batteries (type 675).
