There should be a voltage printed on the battery itself but generally speaking
all batteries of a given size are the same voltage.
I've had excellent luck at the dollar store, usually find button batteries in
packages of 5 or even 10 for $1. Works well for not commonly used electronics
like my digital caliper.
Silver Oxide is better than alkaline, but they're interchangeable.
If it's not so old (less than 30 years), it might take a higher voltage lithium
cell, but those are usually larger diameter and you won't find a 1.4-1.5v
battery that will fit if it's lithium that you need.
You don't want an air activated hearing aid battery, those things have a very
short shelf life once you break the seal on them.
