If you run out of button batteries for your stereo remote, just replace it with a AA, some tape and some spare wires.
I was. For the 80th time. Decided to do something about it. Wooden shim + electrical tape + shiny tape for visibility.
If you don't understand that title, just mullet over for a minute.
From the submitter:
So I get up today and the kids are up before me watching TV. That's fine, it Sunday, got to sleep in, figured I go check my email and puts around online for a few. Later I go into the living room, to turn the TV so I can start watching Game highlights before the Super Bowl, but can not find the remote. I mean I searched everywhere. The usual places... In the couch cushions, under the couch, behind the couch and behind the TV.... nowhere to be found.
