I think that the Super Pilot uses a Cds cell which requires a battery roughly the same quality of meter you'd find in a Spotmatic KM or K1000. I think that it _requires_ 3.5 v batteries, my old Luna Pro does.

Hi, Lon, I ~think~ the Super Pilot requires a battery, so maybe it is a bit more sensitive that the Pilot. They seem a good little meter, from your comment and others, so maybe that'll be my choice for an inexpensive meter. thanks, frank Lon Williamson wrote: > I think my Gossens are the regular Pilot: don't need batteries. > Despite being old, they're all within a half-stop of each other, > and meter about like my TTL meters do. > > They're not good in dim light.
