In this world of recycle and reuse, devices that require button batteries should be non-user serviceable only. Useful battery shape for long, low power draw but increasingly used for cheap flashing lights. Sounds like updated ISO/CE mark regulation required.
Button batteries can kill. I’ve twice just managed to stop my own toddler swallowing the ones out of the digital scale. Thanks for the reminder Eric. Pls share and take care.
