Don,
I didn't mean that your specifications were incorrect, just that electronic devices are "designed" with more flexibility that you might expect. I did a quick search for a comparison chart, but the closest I found was this statement from wikipedia, "...In zinc-carbon or alkaline types they produce around 1.5 volts per cell when fresh. Other types produce other voltages per cell (as low as 1.2 volts for rechargeable nickel-cadmium, up to around 3 volts for lithium/manganese dioxide)...."

If you can find something with the same specifications... or close, you should be fine.

(repeat disclaimer) ;-)
