    Many battery companies call their batteries something different - but this is a standard size. Go into any retailer and look on the back of the packs - it will have a cross reference section to guide you. Hope this helps

    Try Maplin electronics? They sell batteries a lot cheaper than most places and stock a huge range. If the clock's not too big take it in and the geeks, oops I mean guys, should be able to find you what you need!

    In Belfast, there's a branch at Connswater and another on Boucher Road.
