A 3V battery is not sufficient. I've tried it before.
Long ago in a universe far, far away, I popped a pair of AAs into a Performa 475 I had. Worked flawlessly for me, the machine held time and turned on without employing the PizzaBox PowerToggle. I don't know if I'd recommend it as a long-term solution, but I also don't know if I'd go buy more than a hundred batteries which require physical modification before they can be installed in a Mac.
