I'll try switching up battery brands. The out of the box cells from Ikea were dead in weeks, the store brand ones at least gave me a few months.

- filterfiber 3y agoBattery brands (or even skus in the brands) can matter a _lot_. Related, Panasonic's rechargable eneloop have worked very well for me, I'm kind of excited to see AAA be used in the IOT devices where it can fit. I have a lot less of a problem swapping batteries if I just have a few charged ones on hand and get at least many months in-between replacements.
