I have a digital device which uses those little "flat" batteries, in my case type CR2032. They used to last for "years" - at least one year as LCD displays consume very little power.
The last time, I kept the receipt dated January 30th, so I got only 32 days out of the pair of batteries.
I intend to complain, and buy replacements from a different store.
There is a chance that there is something wrong with my device - hopefully the change of suppliers will help me determine the facts - maybe old stock from current supplier (Canadian Tire). Hopefully, there will be more than one manufacturer in the market.
Anybody else noticed a deterioration in the performance of these small-but-expensive batteries?
