New blog post!

TICKLESS, a manufacturer of tick repellent devices says that its entry level device should not be opened, and you should not replace the battery. Instead you should throw the device away after six months and buy a new one.

I find those claims unreasonable. And I show how to change the battery in minutes.

@stfn neat!

BTW, does the device actually repells ticks?
