Wink Dead Battery or Batteries?

I was amused to see this post. Frisky, our very low mileage first year Scion, hasn't had its battery changed, and since it often sits for as long as two weeks without firing up, for about half its life I have expected to find it unresponsive one morning. Finally, last week, when I clicked to open the door, nothing happened. I used the key to gain access to the hood latch, but everything lit up and Frisky cranked as usual. I was only a little surprised to see that both our key fobs had dead batteries.


FWIW: It's fairly easy to change the 2016 coin cells, and no reprogramming is required.
