Radio Shack has them. Take it with you, often they have several numbers for the same battery.

it is a 3volt lithium button cell,RCI part#EX08N41405
Possibly transferrs to a # like cr2032,Walmart jewlery counter would be another good source.

the stock batt.s have solder tabs on them too.
They are not the standard CR2032 tech291 talks of.
(They are of the same voltage and size tho.)
I soldered jumper wires at the PCB location and
remotely mounted a PCB battery mount(from ratshack) so changing out the battery in the future would be much easier!Some have done the 2AA
or 2AAA battery trick also.It's totally up to you.
Good luck.Slim

i have the two aa mod done to mine and it is simply the only way to go! forget and leave the power knob on and your not out a 4+ dollar lithium battery plus the time changing it! pop the bottom cover off and swap the two aa's!
