There are the common CR2032 and the LiR2032
LIR Battery Chemistry
Unlike the other chemistries, the LIR chemisty has a voltage of 3.6V instead of 3V. This chemistry is rechargeable, however a protective circuit is absolutely necessary due to the very high energy density of this type of cell. LIR2032 batteries are frequently used in car security systems, memory backup batteries in electronic devices, electronic watches, and many other applications.
LIR Batteries:
Check out second hand/computer repair places. You might find one in an old motherboard?

Not even PBTech sells them.
Are you in Auckland region?

They allow pickup of "some" items from their HQ in Sylvia Park
Edit: Nope see you're in Wellington :/ sorry! Awfully long drive.
ubergeeknz: Are you in Auckland region?
Wellington CBD has not traditionally been considered part of the Auckland region.

Yeah for some reason my eyes skipped over that part :(
Give it time though
Have you looked on TradeMe? I see one seller in Tauranga advertising them for $3.50. If you have them couriered and add a note asking for extra urgency you might have them within a couple days.
Plesse igmore amd axxept applogies in adbance fir anu typos
If you are really desperate try The Battery Cell on Petone Esplanade. Call first obviously.
Is that about size restrictions why you need 2032?
If in urgency and need 3.6V rechargable right here right now - just tear apart any laptop battery and you'll get 18650 cell (of course much bigger size than you need) as a temporary workaround :-)
I've just got one off eBay. I was going to get one off Trade Me but I resent paying more for delivery than the cost of the item.

$29.90 not sure if that includes GST.
