    I saw this commercial tonight. Vey interesting. Might have to pick up some next trip to the hardware store.

    There is fine print in there they can use to get out paying anything and that $250 may only cover one way shipping of the full device (talking about a full pinball game) just sending a board may give them to much room to get out of it.

    I doubt you would have to send the whole pin. They just need to see the board and the leaking battery.

    I take that you don't know how far big companies go with marketing stuff like this with there fine print that makes it hard for some to get a pay out.

    Just change your batteries once a year, just like your smoke detectors.

    I stopped buying Energizers years ago because of those stupid bunny commercials.

    Usually the product that is guaranteed not to do something is the one that will.

    Disclaimer (is this really necessary? ) *of course there must not be prior battery leakage, and batteries must be removed from the board when anyPin is installed

    I guarantee that eventually a battery will leak regardless of the guarantee. Or I'll refund the time you spent reading this*

    *time will not be honored

    Years ago, Varta had a similar guarantee.

    We tried to collect on it once when batteries leaked and trashed a motor drive on a Nikon FM2N.

    Varta's answer? We needed to prove that the batteries leaking caused the damage.

    We ended up buying another motor drive.
