tatetate Posted February 13, 2016 Share #1 Posted February 13, 2016 Advertisement (gone after registration) Hi This might not be new question and perhaps might have been discussed over and over again, What batteries do you guys use with MP? and where do you source them for? Whats the lifespan like? Thanks in advance. T Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

indergaard Posted February 13, 2016 Share #3 Posted February 13, 2016 Duracell Photo 1/3N Lithium Battery: https://www.duracell.com/en-us/products/camera-batteries/duracell-photo-n-lithium-battery It cost $3.99 a piece and has lasted me almost a year so far, and still going strong... I purchased 5 at B&H while visiting the US. So I'll be set for many years to come. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
semi-ambivalent Posted February 13, 2016 Share #4 Posted February 13, 2016 Duracell 1.5v. 303/357, equiv. to: SR44, LR44/SR47/A Stack in two instead of one thicker battery. They seem to meter just fine, last about a year and, more importantly, I have found them everywhere from my local Safeway to nowhere-ville gas stations. s-a Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
sarav Posted February 13, 2016 Share #5 Posted February 13, 2016 Duracell Photo 1/3N Lithium Battery. it lasts 5/6 months. I actually use a couple of MP only. If I'd probably get back to digital ones, batteries would last an year or more, I suppose. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ShivaYash Posted February 16, 2016 Share #7 Posted February 16, 2016 Advertisement (gone after registration) I'm using SR44 and they are not the same as the cheaper LR44. The meter will respond differently. I opted for Duracell made in America cells. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chuck Albertson Posted February 19, 2016 Share #10 Posted February 19, 2016 Always carry a spare. Lithiums last a long time, but their performance doesn't taper off when they run low, they just die. I've learned to pay attention when the MP's idiot light comes on. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
