Last year, when my Tesla key fob started saying "low battery", I gamely got out the manual and read how to do it, and changed the battery. Immediately turning my fob into a brick. (Then, stupidly, I performed this very same feat on Valerie's key, which I also bricked, leading to a service call.) Recently, my key fob has been saying low battery again. We went on the Internet, and we discovered that there was quite a lot of superstition surrounding Tesla key fobs. So we applied the following to magic spells: we used official Panasonic batteries, rather than whatever hardware store had lying around (Duracell, it turned out), and we changed the battery inside the car, with all the other key fobs far away.

Seems to work! So the next time somebody's battery reports low, we'll try this trick again.

Separately, I went on my longest bicycle ride of the year, 15 miles, bringing me to 121. Not going to make 166 for the month (which would be par), but I always make it up in the summer. In fact there's been quite a lot more than average bicycling for winter this month. Next month, not going to be so good, because I am going to California for a week in the middle.
