Yup, Ray, yer right.  As a follow-up on this issue, and for the archives, I 
bought an "O-ring" from Canadian Tire that makes an SR44 the size of a 
PX625A.  For anyone else wanting to do this, the "O-ring" you want 
should have an outside diameter of 9/16", and inside diameter of 3/8" 
and a width of 3/32" and you just stretch it 'round the SR44 before 
dropping the battery into the battery slot.

For me, this is a temporary fix because John H. is going to send me a 
plastic sleeve to glue into the battery slot.  (Thanks, again, John!)  If you 
have access to any plastic material the same size as the above, I 
suppose that'd work.

Regards,

Chris
