starrett 722 caliper battery type?

[mikecwik]

it works. i didnt purchase the new batteries i just loosened some screws up and it let me slip in a couple of thicker batteries that i did have.

now i have a dilemma that popped into my head in the process. do i really need to put more batteries in to a landfill?

we all could do a little more...or do a little less is the right wording. it can be rather amazing driving around on trash collection day and seeing the amount of stuff thrown away by a household.
