[Leica] Handheld meter

[john.o.newell at comcast.net (J. Newell)]

Heh, heh...I buy good batteries, too - usually Everready, but in my 
experience it's hard to buy bad Li button cells unless you go out hunting 
for them.  The Radio Shack cells were usually Sanyo, last I noticed.  It 
doesn't matter for this meter - they're croaked within a month or two.  This 
is true even with nothing pressing the buttons, which was my original 
theory.  It's too bad, because the size and weight are great.
