Review on Maverick Professional Digital Triple Line Timer by Jennifer Washington

I liked the idea of this little triple timer with three timers, integrated stopwatch and clock. And for about a year it worked pretty well (though not quite intuitively). Problem? After about 12 months, the batteries began to run out, causing the device to fail. And these are not standard batteries. Yes, the other day I took it, tried to set one of the timers, and the device started to squeak. Then other strange things started happening. I finally opened the battery compartment and found that both round LR44 BATTERIES were STARTING TO CORROSE. After reviewing the manual, I found that the warranty was of course only one year. Naturally.
