So carbon-zinc from the 99-cent store is fine. Just don't put them in your mouth because they probably have lead paint.  But do keep the sensor holes and nubs clean. Fat Matt sent me a 5.0 once to "fix" because it read low. The hole had like 5 years of ICK in it... looked like ear wax mixed with dust. Cleaned it and the reading went back up to original. |
