Vallerina 2 #1 August 21, 2002 My Pro-Track batteries are about up (that annoying "low battery" warning keeps yellin at me.) While moving from Purdue to....a location still to be determined, I seemed to have lost my extra set of batteries. I'm guessing no, but is there an easier to find equivalent of the "CR 2330" battery? Or, does anybody know of a jeweler on the south side of Chicago that has them (I think I've called most...but you never know.) Otherwise....I guess I'll have to break down and order some.

freeflir29 0 #2 August 21, 2002 I found this with Google Search... www.cheapbatteries.com/photo.htm Just scroll down a bit. L&B doesn't seem to sell them on their web site. Or you might look for a "Batteries Plus" store in your area. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Keith 0 #4 August 21, 2002 Try a camera store, Radio Shack, WallMart, or even some drug stores (like SavOn) carry odd size batteries.Keith Don't Fuck with me Keith - J. Mandeville Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PhreeZone 20 #5 August 21, 2002 Cheap solution... you can get batteries that are just a tad thinner WAY cheaper. (The numbers on the battery are width then thickness. ie 23 something 30 something) I found 2325's for 2.50 a pair at my local Battery plus. A Nickle shim solves the thinkness issue and I save 7.50 each time I swap out batteries.Yesterday is history And tomorrow is a mystery Parachutemanuals.com Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Deuce 1 #7 August 21, 2002 Whatever you do, be REALLY careful not to lose those two teeny-tiny springs that are on either side of the battery cover. I forget about those little b*st*rds every time, but I've been lucky every time. That is the only design defect in what I think is otherwise about a perfect product.

The 2330's are only $4.00 at the link I put up..... As cheap as $2.00 if you find 50 friends or a DZ concession that needs a set and order 100 at a time.

Dumpster 0 #11 August 21, 2002 Hey Girl! In regards to the small parts that get lost easily- If you spread out a towel and do your work on that, any small parts that fall will stop right there - no rolling around or anything. It's a trick I learned from a watchmaker. His bench was actually covered with a carpet like fabric, but a dishtowel works greaat! C-Ya! Easy Does It Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Vallerina 2 #12 August 21, 2002 Thanks for the tips all! You guys rock! The 2325s work great! Just had to fill in that extra space. I coulda just ordered a bunch, but I slacked and probably wouldn't get them in time for jumping this weekend. But, there are NEVER problems with procrastinating!There's a thin line between Saturday night and Sunday morning Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AndyMan 7 #13 August 22, 2002 I have a spare pair you can have, if you're ever in the area. Otherwise, Radio Shack is fine. _Am__ You put the fun in "funnel" - craichead. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
