Granted many Villagers should not be climbing ladders. That's why I suggested that a neighbor, friend or handyman do it for those who prefer not to climb. With the average home having 6-7 sensors...that's over a quarter million battery replacements that have to be done yearly. Again, if I couldn't climb, I'd rather have a handyman do it for me rather than take time away from our emergency response providers.
I know I may be stubborn (my wife surely thinks I am) but I would think changing batteries should be considered a maintainance item the same as having your dryer vent cleaned which we should be responsible for having done.
