Great post, IMO: In a world of 'planned obsolescence' where devices are frequently bricked by non-replaceable, unmanaged Li-ion pouches that over-discharge and die, the universal AA(A) standard is bliss.

I prefer not buying cheap electronic trash over using non-rechargeable batteries. I urge everyone not to buy every single device that has an LED and every gadget out there, we got a planet to save.
