Everybody here gets a few batteries in their Christmas stocking for
the smoke and CO detectors, and they get changed out on Christmas Day.
I do the batteries in the clocks when they quit.

Take care.

With the changing of clock time coming up. I like to put new batteries
in all the clocks. I have about half dozen clocks around the house. I
do the clock batteries and time set at church, also. We have about 25
various clocks at church.

Yes, about this time of year. I like to dig out all my various bug out
bags, fanny packs, tool boxes, cave exploration bags, clothing
pockets, and every other nook and cranny. Change the batteries in
various hidden and sequestered lights.

Of course, the smoke detectors, too. I was talking to my Dad over
lunch. he says his detectors beep when they need a new battery, which
can be as long as two years. I think waiting that long is false
economy. I really reccomended he replace the batteries every year.
Cheaper than fire damage. Eveready alkalines (I think?) at Home Depot
in the multipacks, work out about a buck each. They also have good
price on AA Energizer. For the clocks. It's also wise to push the test
button on smoke detectors. I've had them stop working, and the button
test is important.
