Karl Voit :emacs: :orgmode:<p>Okay, one of my 10 <a href="https://graz.social/tags/smokedetectors" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>smokedetectors</span></a> started its low <a href="https://graz.social/tags/battery" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>battery</span></a> alarm tonight. They always start beeping during the night, don't they?.</p><p>Should I continue to buy cheap 9V blocks at the local discounter or switch to rechargeable batteries instead (edit: for the environment)?</p><p>Non-rechargeable: Duracell industrial (1,35€) lasted 3½ years. Cheap batteries (50 Cents) lasted 2 years.</p><p>The rechargeable ones (~5€) do seem to provide just 8,4V and store only ~300-650mAh. Charging via USB cable or proprietary charger. I'm afraid they don't last more than a year and replacing them frequently is tedious.</p><p>Do you have experience with that?</p>
