Fob battery
OK. I have purchased my last 2 batteries at Batteries + and they are only lasting 2 months! That is unacceptable . I think it is CR 2025. Where are you all getting your batteries. [my first battery lasted YEARS]

Used Panasonic Cr2025 battery bought at Amazon.
Panasonic CR2025-4 CR2025 3V Lithium Coin Battery (Pack of 4)
Lasted from Feb 10 2016 till yesterday when message pop-up.
Also, i did see another discussion on this forum of using cr2032 instead. There are enough room to fit.
Im planning to use cr2032 next time.
