minus-squareilinamorato@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·6 months agoThat sounds amazing. I’ve never had anything rechargeable before, and I have moderately new, mid-range TVs. Where are you getting the good stuff?
minus-squareilinamorato@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up3·6 months agoI haven’t had one that needed anything other than AA or AAA…uh…ever? What brands are you buying?
