    Quoted from TimeBandit:

    No arguments here. Lithium all the way.

    Quoted from barakandl:

    amazon.com link »
    8 count energizer lithium aa sized batteries for $10.20. Divide by 3 batteries per game = $3.4. Once you replace the batteries three times, you have nearly paid for an NVRAM module.

    I do like the idea of NVRAM and have put in a few of my pins. I think it's just laziness that keeps me from doing it on all of them.

    That aside it's true that those lithiums will last a very long time, and a couple sets will likely outlive me.
