Battery & Adaptor configuration
(NB: Battery brand may vary according to supplier availability.)
The original battery for the Yashica Electro 35 series was a 5.6v PX32 but because this used Mercury that gave rise to environmental concerns production of these batteries stopped some years ago. Equivalent alternatives such as a 6v Silver Oxide Cell are available. However, because of the size difference an adaptor is needed in order to use them. I use and recommend the “Brinkman” adaptor.
Why use an adaptor + 6v Silver Oxide Cell?
· Silver Oxide cells last a lot longer than Alkaline batteries.
· Usually a little bit cheaper than Alkaline batteries.
· Heavy users will recover the initial added cost of the adaptor by saving on the cost of replacement batteries.
· Voltage is stable: Once in use the voltage soon drops a little (closer to the 5.6v of the original Mercury Cell) and then remains stable throughout the life of the battery.
· This is the better option for slide film, particularly ‘slow’ slide film, users: ‘If’ practical experimentation shows that exposure compensation is required - using the ASA setting – then that compensation will be both predictable and constant by the use of this option.
