My non-professional opinion would be to expect it would last longer then 2
weeks... lithum batteries usually last for years, and the memory in power-down
mode draws hardly any current.

Urgent Battery Question!!!

2003-09-11 by Mike Walters

I replaced my dead battery on my battery-modified mk1. The battery I 
used didn't have solder lugs, so I used super glue. It actually held 
up for a few months... But I knew it wasn't a real fix, and the wires 
eventually lost contact.

So, I ordered a new 3v Li coin cell WITH solder lugs from Mouser. The 
problem is, I ordered the wrong size. I got 10mm, and I probably 
should have gotten 20.5mm.

My question is this... If I install this small battery, how long 
would it last? Atleast a year or so? I need to use the synth for some 
gigs nextweek, and I can't wait around for a new order to arrive 
because I'll be out of town. Will this battery keep all the data 
atleast 2 weeks?!?

Thanks!

Yeah i dont think you would have a problem,

I would suggest using solder instead of superglue to attach the  
barstard tho!

just my 0.02cents

Best Regards,
