Replacement batteries for Starbeam

[Constant (David)]

Having installed my Starbeam I beheld the wonders of Tele Vue innovation, unfortunately, I left the light on..... Having looked extensively about on Ebay I couldn't find the strange little battery that powers this wonder.

Where can you find a Duracell XL DL 1/3 Lithium battery?

Is it a DL 1 3N battery - 3v lithium ?

You can get them online or from battery specialists but rarely at supermarkets, pharmacies.

However if the housing allows it (and doesnt short out) you can just stack 2 x LR44 or LR76 style batteries and get the same voltage.

In Melbourne or online -

Many thanks for the prompt rely. I have ordered and ordered locally so my beautiful StarBeam will be up and working again!

I went through this a few months back. You can also piggyback two 1.5V button batteries and it appears to work.

I sourced a few spare D 1/3 batteries. If you're in Melbourne and desperate for a replacement, you're welcome to one of mine.

I used 2 x A76 from memory..... LR44 is the same
