I have plenty of silver SR44s (357s): Varta and Energizer. So far
they've been fine in the OM-30 and 2Ns I have (6 months-odd).
I'll see how they last in the 2SP if I leave them in. Being an early
one, I have the green flash light, but frankly, compared to the drain of
the other camera functions, I can't imagine that causing a problem
unless you use flash a lot.
