: I recently got a used Sekonic light meter. Anybody know what kind of battery it takes?

Peter:

Well, it used to take a PX625 1.4v Mercury Battery. But those batteries have been banned due to their mercury content, and have not been available in the US for a few years.

The ONLY alternative battery we have is #SA990120 Wein MRB625 1.35v Zinc Air Battery for $4.99, specified as a PX625 replacement.

For further assistance please call us at 800-334-3549 x42 or 312-421-6000 x42.
