  Hi Darrell,

     Seems to me it is a CR2016 with spot welded leads on it. I have =
used both the CR2016 and the CR2032 with good results. As I recall, =
there may be a thickness problem with the CR2032.  I buy them with spot =
welded leads for under $ 2 from DigiKey in the States. They have a great =
variety of 3 volt lithium batteries. Some have plastic insulation on the =
edges which is a plus. As I recall the plain CR2016 goes for about 38 =
cents. If you clean the nickel surfaces and are fast with a small =
soldering iron, you can solder your own leads on them.
  Used to do that. Do overheat the cell though.  Hope this helps.

                                                                         =
