Bybee Audio tweeks. IQSE

At least Mr. Bybee was not being deceitful. He would have no reason to. You claim the battery will only last one year. How do you know? I thought the device just came out. 

I agree about questioning the one year statement. Have the batteries in your wood QSE died? 

You can't compare it to a watch battery. That is the only source of power for the watch.

The batteries in my Clever Little Clock (which is built on a Casio travel clock) last at least five years with standard Duracell batteries, maybe ten with Quantum batteries. Batteries are longer lasting across the board than they used to be. I’m pretty sure my Casio G Shock battery lasts at least five years. It certainly wouldn’t make sense if one had to replace the battery in a Casio every year. Give me a break!

I always thought active meant the device had its own power supply, no?
