I've recently acquired a One Degree spot meter, and need to find a replacement for the 1.35v Mallory mercury cell.
Any suggestions?
Pentax K (the original one), MX, MZ-5N
Angenieux 35mm, Rodenstock 135; Auto-Takumar 55mm, 85mm; Takumar 135mm, macro 50mm, FA 85mm

my Dad uses the zinc/air WienCells in his Pentax SP500 and they work a treat. They do self discharge quite quickly for a single use battery, ~1 year, but if you are using the spotmeter regularly this probably wont matter.
