Rules (interactive)
Rule 1- All posts must begin with TIL. Linking to a source of info is optional, but highly recommended as it helps to spark discussion.

Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.
That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.
Posts and comments which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.
Rule 6- Regarding non-TIL posts.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-TIL posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
Rule 7- You can't harass or disturb other members.
If you vocally harass or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.

The stylus for a surface tablet uses one AAAA battery, and it will last for hundreds of hours of use. I wish I still had mine, as my surface tablet was my art tablet and I miss doing art. Nobody pay attention to the fact I was bad at it.
/c/sounding
Lemmy has bathymetry enthusiasts?
I despise and ignore battery powered electronics that don't need 18650s. And i use Arch, BTW. :p
SMH, 26650's are the only thing worth a grain of salt. LFS superiority!
18650 master race
that don’t need 18650s.
Could you elaborate/educate?
Thank you. Wasn't sure if that was a type of battery, and I didn't think that a Google search on just a number would be very successful in pinning it down.
An 18650 battery is a type of lithium-ion rechargeable battery123. The name 18650 comes from its dimensions: it is 18mm in diameter and 65mm in length. The battery has a nominal voltage of 3.7v12and a capacity range from 1800mAh to 3600mAh12. 18650 batteries are commonly used in electronic devices such as laptops and flashlights, as well as in electric vehicles and other high-power applications.
The stylus on a surface pro 7 uses one.
My old Genius graphics tablet used AAA batteries, as it was from the times when Wacom's patents on battery-free pens haven't expired.
Yep, I bought a pack of these, but then i didn’t need them because I didn’t use the stylus enough/stylus had a good battery life, BUT then when I did want to use the stylus I had no fucking idea where I stored those batteries.
Same goes for the kobo libra 2’s stylus
I have a wacom-type pen for a tablet that uses one of those. It was a total pain in the ass the time I was traveling and accidentally discharged it by jamming the button in a tight-packaged bag. Turns out, they are pretty much only available online. No normal shop ever stocks them, not even electronics shops nor radio shacks. Barely anyone even heard of them. Tried disassembling a few 9V's, but all of them were the stacked kind. And with international shipping going 2-6 weeks and me changing locations more often than that, it was an extremely difficult to get hold of them.
When Dan's Data reviewed these, he said something like "even if you use this in space, you are still no further away from a shop that sells replacements than you would be at home"
Where they made by Ubisoft?
They are only sold as a temporary license. Then Ubisoft breaks into your house and takes them away.
Every single 9 volt battery you've used and original Surface Pen.
Only name brand. Take apart a discount 9V and it's just one big pile.
I've only seen the stack one, but I took apart lots of procells
What does your remote use?
I haven't had one that needed anything other than AA or AAA...uh...ever?
What brands are you buying?
I have two vizio tvs and bluray player that all take two aaaa batteries
Edit: just rechecked and they are aaa, not aaaa. I do have a penlight with aaaa though
Yeah, seems like AAA has become the standard. I don't love it. Seems like they don't last as long as AA did.
Yeah, mass is kinda like that i think
Well, I mean, in theory they used the smaller ones because they got the power draw down enough that AAAs could power the thing for about the same duration. But obviously not.
USB-C and solar. It's 2024
That sounds amazing. I've never had anything rechargeable before, and I have moderately new, mid-range TVs. Where are you getting the good stuff?
Now I feel poor. Thanks.
