OP OP George Mann Member Joined May 14, 2017 Messages 2,846 Location Denver Format 35mm Dec 26, 2020 #6 OK, so I found out that the company I bought the battery from used a very slow and unreliable service that often loses packages to ship the battery. So I was thinking that 4 SR44's (357) may sub for the battery in question, if they properly fit, and reliably make contact. Has anyone else done this?
