EZ-FLASH Omega Battery Replacement
Channel: makho
Date: 2020-11-02

The EZ-FLASH Omega has an internal battery that is required for the RTC functionality. If that battery dies, you'll have to reset RTC every time you boot it. All other functionality will still work as expected. 

This particular unit AND battery were provided to me to make this video. I don't have any recommendations on where to get a new battery. If you want to replace the battery, you will need a TABBED CR1220. The battery MUST be a tabbed variant. You cannot just pull the tabs off and tape them to a new battery. Search "Tabbed CR1220" on your favorite junk vendor and they should have what you need. 

It looks like digikey doesn't carry the tabbed variety or I'd link directly to those. I don't see any other source other than generic no-name cells on ebay and aliexpress. I've spoken with RGRS and they are looking into procuring a small stock of these batteries. I'll add a link if/when I find a good source otherwise.
