Of course, there's always the 'no battery' option.
I hate batteries on devices. I go out of my way to find devices that don't use batteries. And, when that doesn't work, I try to make alternate accommodations. For example, my battery-less Ikea shades.
It's not the right solution for everyone and I'm not 100% batteryless. But, life is much simpler without those damned batteries, imho.
