My impression is they don't last very long once exposed to air, but certainly
are convenient if not overpriced. You could buy a boatlaod of hearing aid
batteries and use a #9 O ring (see links within the link below below) or get
the MR-9 adapter from John. http://www.zuiko.com/index_016.htm
I think his CLA may include the schotkey diode in the meter circuit that is
essentially the same as the adapter, but nothing then to lose. There may be a
very small metering error with it that is probably not worth worrying about
except maybe in some critical slide? shots---John will know. I recall Tim
designed a small circuit that restored spot on metering, but I'm not sure if it
gets into many cams--fun project though.??
