Re: Pilot: No power up

I'm not an EE, but I thought that it was very high potentials (tens of
thousands of volts) like what you get from walking across a carpet in the
winter that damage the ICs.  If this is the case, I suspect that the 2x1.5V
batteries might not be a big deal.  Of course, it can't hurt to be careful.
