My Lynx 14 came to the surface today so I took it outside to try the meter, no movement. So I put a new battery in her and tried the meter again, no go? So I went on line to find the proper voltage to make it work. Then I found this article about the camera and guess what? There is a little button to push on the front of it to make the meter function. I put a battery back in and pushed the button, guess what, THE METER WORKS !!!!! And it also makes the needle in the green go ahead thingy show in the view finder?
But I would like to know the proper voltage it uses?

Ron, the big history spreadsheet shows
Lynx 14: 1x PX625A (1.5v) alkaline, but I suspect it's supposed to be the PX625 (1.35v) mercury
Lynx 14E: 2x PX640A (1.3v) alkaline
In the case of the plain 14, a 675 will do, as it's 1.4v, though you will need to adapt the size to the battery well.
