No, it isn't! However, it appears that the Bunny is abandoning us. On 
the Energizer web site, the 303 and 357 have disappeared and been 
replaced with a combo 357-303. The good news is that it is a 
'high-drain' design, which is necessary for OM bodies.. The bad news is 
that it no longer has a long flat discharge curve like both the 303 and 
357, but one much like the EPX76, pretty flat out to about 400 hours, 
then tapering off thereafter.

The 357 was essentially flat out to 700 hours. The new battery isn't 
going to give service as long and stable as the discontinued design.
