I use a split metal washer, but you can also use o rings, and I have heard that a "nest" of copper foil works as well.Aluminum foil works well also

I have just resurrected my old Canon EF and Canon F1 (from the mid-70s) which I haven't used for over 20 years. I'll be sending them for a CLA but the original specified batteries (Mercury PX 625 1.35V) are no longer available. Anyone know what can be substituted that will give accurate readings and function just like the old mercury batteries?
My apologies if this has been covered in an earlier thread but I couldn't find it. And yes, the EF along with the original F1 are in my opinion excellently constructed cameras. I stopped using them only because I switched to medium and large formats.
