I have one & the battery lasts quite a while (doesn't get used much).
Maybe a different model. Or a different batch. Or different spots on
the quality curve G.

Or different quality of battery as I just posted above. :-)

Many 99c stores sell a flatpack of 5-10 standard 357 batteries for a
dollar.

So I use 2 batteries a year. Or even 3. Im still way ahead of the curve
when SR44s are $3 each

One could not be a successful Leftwinger without realizing that,
in contrast to the popular conception supported by newspapers
and mothers of Leftwingers, a goodly number of Leftwingers are
not only narrow-minded and dull, but also just stupid.
