Light Meter Batteries for Vintage Cameras
An exact replacement for older mercury PX625 and PX13 exposure meter batteries that were banned decades ago. Unlike the common alkaline replacements, these are the only batteries to have an accurate 1.35 volt rating to allow older camera meters to expose film correctly. Beware of using improper 1.5V Alkaline batteries which may cause drastic exposure errors (usually by a few stops).
These batteries are required for the auto exposure meter to operate properly on the following super 8 camera models: Canon 814 AZ (Autozoom), Canon 518, Nikon R8, Nikon Super Zoom 8 (aka Nikon 8X Super Zoom), Bolex 160 Macro Zoom, Nizo S800, 801, S56, S560. Many other vintage cameras not listed here will also require these batteries. Be sure to examine your camera for a circular, nickel sized battery compartment. Review your camera manual for details.
