You can try Unicell at Sim Lim Square. As far as I know, it is one place that you can find many odd batteries there.

hi, you can always use a 4LR44 batt, which is 6V. i see it at various shops here and there, in price range of $4 to $6 each. i use 4LR44 batt myself.

Kiari, LR44s can be gotten anywhere from supermarkets to HDB lelong shops to just about any watch or electronic store that sell button cells.

LR44 is different from 4LR44. The latter is slightly longer in length compared to 4 x LR44 stacked up, so you'd need a metal spacer(roughly the size of a small button)

i was at a photo lab @ bras basah yesterday to collect my bronica scans. the old gent in the shop (probably the owner) told me abt the stacking of 4x LR44 button batteries into the bronica. the only problem, as mentioned by him, was that there might be a gap between the battery contacts.

he did recommend me to go to sim lim too to find the batt. lets see if i can find it there.

i can't rmb which shop exactly, but could find at simlim. i also saw at a kodak developing shop at vivo basement. i also use the 4pc LR44 batt method- just masking tape them together and add a spring (cannibalised from some old torchlight) behind to fill up the gap. any metal spacer from battery holders will work fine too.

i was wondering for the longest time whether i can stack the lr44 into a 4lr44. luckily managed to find a place selling the 4lr44.

update - those interested to get the 4LR44 battery like me, i found a local ebayer who sells it. quite reasonable too and it works on my bronica. yah!!
