The batteries died in my bedroom TV remote a few nights ago, it wasn't until I went to replace them did I notice that one of the batteries had leaked and seems to have caused some corrosion on the contact, so until I clean it up I've switched to my Flipper Zero as the remote for it (just need power and audio control, rest is via a Roku stick). Never thought this would be my use case for it, but it worked out perfectly.

A reason why I have switched to NiMH rechargables. They leak less often. I've also grown tired of recycling spent alkaline batteries. Also Energizer has no leak guarantee on some of their batteries. I've got the green ones, Recharge Universal.
