The M-1, OM-1, and OM-1n can be converted to use a modern, non-poisonous
sliver oxide battery. I think the meter will need to be recalibrated
because the modern battery is slightly lower in voltage. (1.50 versus 1.55,
right guys?) See the photo at the text "MR9 Battery Adapter" at
http://www.zuiko.com/sales_motor_macro__flash.htm
Why not get a 357 battery for it at the same time?
The business is called "Camtech" in New York State (USA) and I recommend
them. Or call 631-424-2121.
