Too many times I've had batteries die in the middle of the night.

I had a little concern about that, but I figure if I change them way more than they need be, I’ll be OK. A new set of good quality alkalines per year ought to be sufficient. Fingers crossed!

I never got a season out of a set of batteries. Not sure why I had so many issues with batteries. Possibly heat related.

Use lithium as batteries, they work at low temps. Alkaline batteries are not designed for cold environments. I have a set of lithium’s in my Honeywell thermo, last set made it well over a year. Only issue is if they vibrate loose while driving. Simply need to be reseated inside thermo.
