If you think that battery is a dick, you should have bought one of the name brands I had in a remote or wireless mouse a couple of years back....The damn things were still putting out plenty of voltage and running the device just fine, but were leaking acid like crazy. I picked the thing up while using it, saw the white liquid coming out of it, opened it up and said some bad words.

I can't wait till super capacitors replace AA and AAA cells in remotes, wireless mice, etc!
