Urgent - Key Fob battery

[Holti]

Hi all,
I'm due to go away today and take the Chimaera but suddenly both the Key Fobs have stopped working. Im guessing it's a coincidence and the batteries have gone (although big coincidence!). Where can I get this fixed today?! Can I just pop out to a watch shop and replace the battery?!!
Thanks

Dare I say it... pop to H Samuel in the high street for a quick battery change. Good for an emergency.

any high street shop that sells lots of batteries should do, Boots, Woollies, ASDA etc.

assuming you have the diamond shaped meta alarm fob

the type your are after is a cr1220 (mines a panasonic battery) like this

What part number's your old battery got on it & where about in the Midlands are you ?

Also, "Staples" have normally got a decent choice (calculator batteries etc)

Or car alarm places, Halfords etc

Maplins also do the various types of battery for key fobs etc!!
