Hi All,

Long Time Since I've been here. Sort of went on a Home Assistant Tangent.

What got me here was my Welding Helmet!

Just cracked the Recalcitrant Open & am Seeing EXACTLY what's Picrured above.
The Helmet is a Lincoln Viking with a 700G ADF Filter Module.

Exact same PCB & Newsun Cells.

Looks like Cr2342's are rare, as I'm finding almost Zero Search Hits.
Could go with CR3032's, but based on the smaller size, I'd guess they'd have a shorter life.


Cheers

Phil.
