Title: Enhanced MPU battery Post by: cowboygames on November 16, 2010, 04:32:23 PM Hi All, I picked up a set of boards off EBAY and the Enhanced MPU board doesn't have a battery in the holder. This would be the quarter size one that's usually a 3v on a 502 or 504 board. The holder looks like it either uses a double stack or single thicker battery. Can anyone tell me what it's suppose to be? Thanks in advance for the help :3-

Thank you

Click to enlarge if you wish to... The CR2450 is just a touch wider but thinner and is rated at about 60 mAH more than the CR2354 with a wider temperature range. Good find! But does it fit? :244- >>> Title: Re: Enhanced MPU battery Post by: cowboygames on November 17, 2010, 12:46:38 AM Thanks Bunker. I think it'll work fine, damn thing's just a little to wide to seat all the way in the holder :37-

Title: Re: Enhanced MPU battery Post by: cowboygames on November 17, 2010, 12:52:15 AM It's like a millimeter(maybe 1 1/2) to wide is the problem. :60- I'll pick up a couple 2354's, just want to get my boards swapped and make sure the slot gods will let it work :136-

The batteries are thinner on these, but I can get them at Radio Shack for like $1 ea because my brother-in-law owns it. The 2354's are web order only at $6 plus shipping and no discount
