Thanks,

Taken from the Pine64 shop page, there are two types of RTC battery holder available:
https://shop.pine64.com/collections/powe...-batteries
This one takes an two AAA battery
https://shop.pine64.com/collections/powe...um-battery
This one takes a CR2032 battery
Identify which you have and choose your battery accordingly. Both battery types should be widely available.
The next question is naturally "What is to stop me shoving between 1.5 and 3v down down the RTC battery line on the pine64, instead of getting one of those fancy holders?" (meaning I would like to know at some point what the voltage range is of that port - is it 1.5 to 3v? maybe a bit wider range? Hopefully some more knowledgeable can comment on this?
