Cr2032 Battery Contacts Slide

I run through a bunch of CR2032 batteries every couple of months. I like these because battery life has been good, and I can buy them at a reasonable price through B&H.

The RAYOVAC CR2032 Lithium Battery (2-Pack) contained two, count-em two CR2032 cells. Absolutely amazing!!. These were purchased as spares, so I have not measured their voltage yet. Presumably, they will produce the rated 3 Volts and will last for 190 to 240 mAh. They are 20 mm in diameter, shiny and light weight and most likely contains some lithium & manganese dioxide so are technically a LiMn02 cells. FYI: They can explode if heated to more than 80 deg. C.

I got this for my spare OM-D battery. It's a little big for that battery but at least it will protect the contacts, and that's what I got it for.

This pouch keeps my batteries safe in my bag, no scratches to battery body or contacts.

do you sell tail caps for the HP8R. The contacts on the inside of tail cap that come into contact with battery has broken.

The best investment I made, much better with electronic contacts.

Mirrorless cameras use up a lot of battery capacity. These holsters allow me to always have a spare battery on hand without lugging around a camera bag or backpack. They easily slide over the ends of most camera straps, I have used them on Peak Design straps, Black Rapid straps, Tamrac straps and few others. The Peak Design Slide strap is the trickiest to attach these to since the Slide's ends are so wide. However, with patience and persuasion you can actually slide these on over the ends. They'll never fall off accidentally.

When the charger arrived, I pulled out two of my spare batteries to test it. Before I installed the plates into the charger, I looked at the battery contacts and got worried, but upon closer examination of the batteries, I saw that there were two recessed contacts (as opposed to the primary visible-contacts) which these plates use to charge the batteries. The batteries slipped into the plates firmly, and the plates popped into the charger. I left the charger unplugged at first to make sure that the LCD showed current battery status. Both readouts came up and showed the status of each battery. I plugged the charger in and let it do it's thing. I also purchased three other sets of charging plates for different battery types, but haven't had a chance to try them yet. If all goes as well as it did this time, I can just look for new plates as I get different batteries.

I discovered that I can't operate the PO-12 in my hand since it puts tension on the batteries, bending the battery positive or negative contacts away from the battery. It should be operated on a firm surface. When removing the batteries, keep one finger pushing inwards towards the battery and use a flat head screwdriver to push the other end of the battery inward and upwards. If the contacts do bend, then remove the batteries and gently apply inward pressure to restore them to their original position. That aside, the price and number of sound variations make this synthesizer a buyer's deal.

Always good to have a second battery. Only thing I wish is that they included a soft pouch or cover for it to protect the contacts.
