You cannot normally solder on the conventional CR2032. If you do manage to get it right, the heat affects the battery and effectively destroys it. It will possibly only last a few weeks before it is dead as well.

Just wanted to confirm the Chinese sensors I bought from eBay did come with dead batteries in them. I opened them up and changed the batteries using standard Duracell 2032 battery and the TS401 read them within 5 seconds.
Couldn't have done this without the information on this page, so thanks one and all.....

As a matter of interest. How did you secure the new battery?
gs-riders:
I cut out just enough resin to get the battery out to make sure it would still be a tight fit. I then bent the top tap right down so when the new battery went in it was making contact, I then used a tiny bit of tape on it to keep the contact. I checked it was ok and working by using my Ts401 before using a hot glue gun to reseal it.
