I have an old "Gossen Electronic Flash Meter Mark II" and need a new
battery, but have lost the old one. All I remember is that it was an
odd battery, not even alkaline. The battery was close in size to a
modern 123 lithium battery, but squared off, not round. Does anyone
have any sources that might point me to what I need? Or perhaps they're
no longer made.

thanks,

Phil

It uses a 504 battery.
I don't know if it is still available though.

I tried B&H and they no longer carry this battery. However, I found it on
this web site!
