Gary, I had my wet noodle-o'-nine-tails at the ready when I detected geekspeak used in place of English, but you retracted faster than I could whip a noodle.

However, don't expect a 675 zinc-air cell to last very long: typically its life will be less than 1/2 that of the zinc-air 625 Wein cell.<

Are you sure? I've examined the Wein cell pretty carefully and, to me, it looks like nothing more than an ordinary 675 zinc air cell with a metal collar to bring it up to 625 diameter.

Anyhow, I had 675 zinc air hearing aid batteries in my Canon FTbn and Canonet G-III QL17 for about two months, and the OM-1 for almost a month. I'll report back with their demise.
