eggwise Posted August 3, 2012 Share Posted August 3, 2012 This may be a stupid question as the blurb from Crown states that you have to "remove batteries from any games, toys and electrical equipment." I've taken AA's etc out of the kid's toys, clocks, remotes etc... but what about those piddly LITTLE batteries that are included in some toys when you buy them??? Eg....toy planes, power ranger stuff...you know...the kind of toys that have "sound effects" and flashing lights. I've tried to remove the batteries out of these...but they are a pain and some of them i just can't remove. Please help....it's driving me nuts :twitcy: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NicF Posted August 3, 2012 Share Posted August 3, 2012 I wouldn't worry about it. We didn't remove any batteries from anything. I've not actually unpacked anything and checked it's still working yet (only got the stuff delivered late yesterday) but I don't see why it shouldn't be okay. I think the advise to remove your batteries is more about the possibility if them leaking than anything else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ali Posted August 3, 2012 Share Posted August 3, 2012 I think it's more if they leak which will give you ruined toys that you won't be able to claim for on insurance if they've asked you to remove the batteries Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fleabo Posted August 4, 2012 Share Posted August 4, 2012 We left batteries in most stuff. I put a piece of paper between the batteries in the bathroom scales to stop the scales endlessly turning on and off during transit. What a cheapskate eh?
