       Keep in mind size is only half the battle. The battery must end at 1.35 
  volts, NOT 1.5. A diode must be involved to change this. Also, be aware that
  MOST 625 batteries out there now (alkaline) ARE 1.5...the wrong battery for
  OM-1's.

                                                    enjoy,
