Subject: Re: AN1x Battery CR 2450 y vs n

I'm about to have that very same WTF moment.
I just finished replacing a few of the failing keys on a very "used" AN1x I picked up and as soon as I had it all back together I got the Battery Low message. Bah.
I couldn't find a CR2450y anywhere, either so I'm about to see how it fits tonight.
Will report on my progress.
