Never heard of that, I'll give it a shot 
I have a digital tire pressure gauge. The batteries as I recall were LR44. Fine. I have a box of the batteries that were labeled the same as in the digital gauge. The ones in the gauge were fatter!! Unit took three of them. Unit would nearly take four of the current batteries, but not work with just three -loose batteries.
Wrote emails to three different people at the Chinese importer/company. The only knowledgeable response was a woman who said my unit was 7 years old, was surprised the old batteries had lasted this long and just buy a new unit. Of course, I bought a new unit. There is a national small battery distributor about three miles away (very expensive, so I don't use it.) I am curious and so I will take the old unit, old batteries and new batteries there for a look-see.
Just a reminder that not all the PRC manufacturers are with it.
