Advanced battery power management my ass. I refuse to buy extra batteries simply because the power management is unreliable and the battery tabs break. I'm surprised that I'm the only one whose derailleur drains its battery completely in less than a week, just hanging in the rack. Hopefully my third front derailleur is a charm...
