Is CR2032 battery usable?

Shel

Thinking of integrating a Larson scanner into Halloween costume eyewear.  Planning on ditching the pc board and doing point-to-point wiring.  Battery size seems like the biggest obstacle.  Is there any hope that a CR2032 would have enough poop to run the scanner (maybe in dim mode, narrow scanning mode) for an hour or two?

Hi Shel,

Yes, that will work (for a short time, as you note). We used one, for example, on our Kraftwerk-inspired tie project: http://www.evilmadscientist.com/2011/a-new-kraftwerk-inspired-led-tie-kit/

Coolness, thanks!!
