I also don't bother with the cheap batteries. I put the good stuff in the smoke detectors anyway.

SmokeyTheBear said:Mine all talk to each other so when one gets its britches in a knot they all let me know about it. You don't ignore such a sounding off (there are five of them). In addition the batteries only get used if the 'tricity is out. So I get close to full shelf life from them.
Estarrio said:Funny - I was just thinking that I need to change all of my batteries.
I have two strategically placed units up and running. The rest have low or no batteries. I'm going to fix all but one tomorrow. The last one is on a vaulted ceiling and I can't reach it with a ten foot ladder...

She and one of her daughters finally had to remove all the batteries and replace them the next day because she could not figure out which one (or more) were bad. She was not a happy camper.
Does it make me a bad person for laughing my butt off?
