Q133 battery

2009-11-07 by Malte Rogacki

Hello everyone;

I assume the battery on the Q133 stores the date and time settings in the
Series III. Since my machine has started "forget" those settings each time
it is powered down I guess it's time to change the battery.
However this seems to be a sort of sepcial 3.6V lithium type that isn't
exactly common.

Two questions:

1. Does anybody know the exact type and where to obtain it?
2. Could the battery possibly be replaced with a CR2032 or something
similar? The CR2032 is just 3V, though; however I have had good experiences
with it in other synths.

Thanks and best regards,
