Pressed my tv remote control today and it didn't work.
I thought maybe the eneloops batteries needed recharging.
Found out, I had alkaline batteries installed instead and one leaked.
Now I have to try and clean off the leak.
I'm switched over mostly to everything battery operated to NiMh low discharge batteries. But the remotes with them sometimes don't work. My guess is maybe they need the 1.5V whereas the eneloops only give 1.2v.
I may need to invest in some more (I have a few) rechargeable AA/AAA batteries. Non leaking and 1.5V. Thought my battery buying days were over, but apparently not.
