The Dreamcast uses a soldered-in, rechargeable ML2032 battery to store the console's time and date settings. The battery recharges whenever the console is powered on. The batteries on most all Dreamcast consoles should be dead by now, so one can desolder the original battery and replace it with a plastic battery holder so the console owner can replace the ML2032 anytime with only a screwdriver. It is recommended not to use the LIR2032 battery type as the Dreamcast does not output the voltage necessary for it to properly recharge.
