I have a piece of equipment with a dead BR-2/3A 3V battery with solder tabs (solders to PCB) used to keep settings in memory. From memory, I'd estimate the battery is twenty-years-old, so it's not getting depleted quickly.
I'm finding some quite steep prices for these and wondering if the cost is due to the battery power or its unique style.
If it's just the style, does anyone know of a cheaper replacement that would be more cost effective?
