    I have heard that Lithium batteries have a flat discharge. A coin cell may last longer a 3 volts than several alkaline at 1.5. The alkaline will start showing a voltage drop as soon as it is used.

    Dave,

    Thanks. That is good to know for future design reference. According to the app note that I mentioned above the discharge rate of these Lithium batteries is pretty flat.
