Any battery of the correct voltage and current rating would work. You need to check the specifications of the battery in use. If it's a 1.5v battery or multiple you could use "D" cells. Battery holders are available on Ebay or at electronics goods retailers (used to be Radio Shack).

The batteries are the BA-1 dry 3 volt tungsten. the spots for the batteries are about the same diameter as D size. So using 2 1.5 v batteries in line does this give you the 3v?
