I am using SR-44 silver batteries and I checked the meter against my FT-1 and it was the same. Since the SR-44 are smaller in diameter and also thinner, I made a sleeve out of 5/8" O.D. plastic pipe and used a brass washer for a spacer. even though some say it is not necessary. It works very well in the TC's. If need be, you can take the top off of the camera and adjust the variable resistor above the pentaprism until the meter matches a meter known to be correct.
