[Premium-Rx] WJ 8718A/MFP Battery Rebuild

[Stephous]

Hi Les,

When I look up this part number on the Varta WEB site I get a data sheet for
a button cell. The link from The Battery Store is the same. Is there another
part number? The picture and dimensions on the TBS WEB site are correct
(1.67" x 0.67" x 0.63").

Have you installed these in 8716's?

Best Regards,
Steve

> If this is the same battery used in the WJ 8716 and I think it is,  the
VARTA  55615-702-012 is an exact replacement. They can be ordered from the
batterystore.com for $12.95 plus shipping. Check out this link.
