The funny thing about that remote and the J-Battery that the remote used was that it was a Duracell Battery from the early 1990s and my dad in order to keep the battery "fresh" (when the remote still worked) would remove the battery out of the remote every once in a while and throw it in the freezer for a few days and then put it back in the remote and it would keep working.

Any ideas as to why that would work or if that really did work to keep the battery fresh?
