Hello!
Mark, Jordi is right, the original part number isn't made anymore,
worse luck, but MAXIM does make a drop in replacement as he shown.
They are designed to have a (approximately) five year life time, so
when did you last use your rig? You're what, based in the UK? Farnell
is your best bet there.
Gregg: It was last switched on about 9 months ago, before that it was
used once every few months. If the TOY clock has ever been replaced I'd
be surprised. Is there a way to test the battery voltage on the TOY
clock pins?
I can land a new one off eBay for 10GBP, I suspect Farnell will charge a
lot more but the resulting item will at least be guaranteed.
Brian: Yep, my Alpha PWS 500au takes a standard coin cell.
