Can anyone tell me what battory or battory's go in the 1997 Xantia key fob (IR unit for a VSX), I have to ask as when I brought mine it had two different battory's in it and the one I got from ebay only has one.
After replaceing the ebay one for the same type of battory it has gone flat in just a few weeks, so somthing must be wrong.

For those who don't know the battery number indicates its physical size.

The first two digits indicate the diameter in millimetres and the second two are the thickness in tenths of a millimetre.

Thus:
CR2032 - 20 x 3.2
CR2025 - 20 x 2.5
