They are sometimes uses for the CMOS battery for computers.

typically early CMOS generations or any application that uses small current draw over a long period of time, such as wireless alarms, wireless doorbells [before the A23 cell models]. Present CMOS [if you hasn't seen before] usually use 2320, 2050, 2026, 2302, etc button cells

despite its rarity and cost, they are used in some flashlights [such as the tektite trek lithium]

Thats what I was afraid of. No sense in ruining my light. Thanks!

My understanding is that they can only cope with very low current output. Are some of the above example high current ones?
