Anothe Name for the LR44 Battery?

Many times batteries are the same but come in a variety of different names or number combinations. A lot of times this has to do with which company manufactured the battery. The LR44 battery is no exception. Another very common name for this small watch battery is the 357. The circumference and voltage are the same; the only difference between the LR44 and the 357 batteries is the name.
