@guybrush01@sammydog01 Well… It was educational. Not sure what is more bizarre - someone selling these items or how many people must be buying them. And the name of the site.

Not true. Refrigerateing batteries keeps them at a constant temperature which causes them to store longer. Your house/garage can fluctuate temperatures between summer and winter, shortening the lifespane. It’s not the cold they benefit from but the consistency.
@braveit1@fuzzmanmatt@hchavers Refrigerating batteries can lead to condensation inside batteries, risking damage for a minimal increase in battery life.

@Felton10 has Walter been consulted in general or has he been ignored as a minority with such a high ranking position in your inner circle? #birdsarepeopletoo lol
@tinamarie1974 Walter has been consulted on all major policy decisions including all those concerning bubble wrap. I know there are those who are going to give me grief that since Walter and I are male, there is no female input.
@tinamarie1974 I think like me when I learned what GOAT stood for I was excited initially but then when the word “scape” was added in front of goat she soured on the idea (as did I).
Look, I have standards for my color-changing-LED-plastic-eggs. IF I go to all of the expense and trouble of purchasing a color-changing-LED-plastic-egg, it MUST be WiFi enabled so I can change the color from Alexa or my phone. Hard (boiled) pass from me!
Bought a dozen eggs. One failed to hatch. Either the chick has a damaged mitochondria or is still born. Either way, waiting for MEH to respond. Will it be CPR or a burial? The 11 others are excited and miss the sibling.
I have a dozen and love the colors, especially the level where it gently traditions to another color. I, too, had one that doesn’t work, one that works for a few seconds then shuts off, and one that is very low/dull colored (think the battery is going). Waiting to hear back from support.
I have one egg with a bad battery- it’s corroded. I don’t have any replacement batteries. I got the old ones out and ordered 30 batteries from Amazon for $4 but if you really like glowing things you can get 100 for under $6.
I’m not suggesting that customer support shouldn’t help people out but if you want them flashing for Easter it should be very doable.
Update: I decided I really do like glowing things and ordered 100.
@sammydog01 Yeah, I realized too late to edit the first comment, but I was enchanted with the idea of having 100 of them glowing in your yard or wherever. That would be magical!
2 didn’t work, 2 were so dim that I had to put my hands around them to see if they were lit up and 2 I could see the light but nothing like what was advertised.
Echoing above comments. Out of two sets, 2 eggs were DOA. I opened them up. observations:
the batteries are LR41, 3 for each egg
The screws are quite small, smaller than the ones in my glasses
On one egg the screws were wollered out
Both boards were quite greasy
One egg had a battery that had corroded and expanded, breaking the solder connecting the battery clip to the board. I don’t have any extra LR41 on hand and my LR43s would not fit.
The other egg just had broken solder point for a battery clip, fixed that one and it’s back in operation.
when putting the board back in, make sure to line up the button on the board with the ‘button’ on the plastic bottom.
the lights are quite bright without the white egg top to diffuse them. Also, all but two of the light modes are obnoxious.

These are pretty cool. $1 store type item though
Lord, did you guys get this as surplus from Gwyneth Paltrow’s GOOP warehouse?
@guybrush01
Fixed that for you.
@guybrush01 Had to look that up. LMAO. I guess I must have been living in a cave.
@guybrush01 @mehcuda67 Were you sorry you looked it up?
@guybrush01 @sammydog01 Well… It was educational. Not sure what is more bizarre - someone selling these items or how many people must be buying them. And the name of the site.
@guybrush01 @mehcuda67 @sammydog01
I had to look it up too, not very impressive, NOT AT ALL!! Like it’s pretty BEAT imo.
Jus sayen…

Pity the poor chicken that laid them.
@Felton10, Those tweren’t no chicke,n eggs! Them eggs are clearly Goose eggs!!
Aflack 
🦢!!
Eggcelent…
@gogrrl, Copy that, your eggcellency!!
LR41? Really? I’m not adding another battery size to my inventory. If you count rechargeables I’m up to like, 45 already. I’m out.
@fuzzmanmatt Wow! Do you have anything else in your frig?
@fuzzmanmatt Woohoo! I just ordered a 20-pack of LR41s for a keychain flashlight I hardly use. Everything’s coming up Sunburn!
@fuzzmanmatt @hchavers You know it doesn’t actually do any good to refrigerate batteries, right?
@banksnld @fuzzmanmatt conspiracy theorist exist in everything.
@banksnld @fuzzmanmatt @hchavers
Not true. Refrigerateing batteries keeps them at a constant temperature which causes them to store longer. Your house/garage can fluctuate temperatures between summer and winter, shortening the lifespane. It’s not the cold they benefit from but the consistency.
@braveit1 @fuzzmanmatt @hchavers Refrigerating batteries can lead to condensation inside batteries, risking damage for a minimal increase in battery life.
@banksnld @fuzzmanmatt @hchavers so just keep them in a container in the fridge.
@braveit1 @fuzzmanmatt @hchavers Or, just don’t keep them in the fridge since the change in life span is minimal.
Arrive in time for Arbor Day!
Trees, the eggs of life.
Can I still have some ham with those green eggs, or is that out now?
@phendrick
Foiled! This is the type of item that should be saved for a mehrathon.
Shouldn’t that be “clucks”
@hchavers @AnyoneElse
I see no mention of an app or a remote – so what exactly is it that you “click”?
@hchavers, I hear ya cluckin!
It’s called a button, man, it’s not like they’re obsolete
Who thought this was a good idea?
@tinamarie1974 this has @felton10 dyed all over it.
@Felton10 @jaybird well if nothing else we know it is his fault anyway
@tinamarie1974, not
said the blind man [or woman]!!
@tinamarie1974 They should have consulted Walter first-he is my point bird on everything related to eggs. I personally have never laid an egg myself.
@Felton10 has Walter been consulted in general or has he been ignored as a minority with such a high ranking position in your inner circle? #birdsarepeopletoo lol
@tinamarie1974 Walter has been consulted on all major policy decisions including all those concerning bubble wrap. I know there are those who are going to give me grief that since Walter and I are male, there is no female input.
@Felton10 hum, you may need to add your wife in a cabinet position.
@tinamarie1974 I actually offered her the position of Vice Goat before Walter.
@Felton10
@Felton10 she does realize she is the first goat lady, right?
@tinamarie1974 I think like me when I learned what GOAT stood for I was excited initially but then when the word “scape” was added in front of goat she soured on the idea (as did I).
When I saw these I thought for a moment that they were one of those novelty offerings that have been showing up in the Mehrathons.
You had me with cool and hypnotic.

@sammydog01 Giddy up!!!
@sammydog01 Is that from Career Opportunities? Brad worked in that store before he stole the briefcase from Marcellus Wallace.
“3 LR 41 button batteries”
Thanks for making it an easy nope.
But why?
Neat, now I don’t have to dye eggs this year!
I’m surprised I didn’t hear from the guy who loves Purple clucking, "Do they have purple eggs
"
🟣, “I Love 
Purple!”
For all the basic chicks just tryna be eggs-tra.
This simply amuses me.
@cinoclav Not Kosher
@cinoclav Not even sure what that is, but it looks nasty.
@Felton10 Looks like floured chicken strip being dunked in an egg wash to me.
@cinoclav @Felton10 It is 2 forms of boneless chicken.
Nice, should arrive just in time for Easter 2022
Wifey wants to know if they vibrate?
Appears that’s the deal breaker.
@technec I think this is what your wife is looking for?
https://www.amazon.com/egg-vibrator/s?k=egg+vibrator
@technec literally my first thought. I had to look twice at the late hour the deal pops up!
Any guesses how long the batteries last?
@Seeds LR batteries can last 3-5 years if new in some products
Eggscrement. How many bowls of rice did some poor slob get for manufacturing this bunk?
Is the chicken for sale?
Furiously poring over content to see if there’s an Easter Egg in these LED eggs…
Look, I have standards for my color-changing-LED-plastic-eggs. IF I go to all of the expense and trouble of purchasing a color-changing-LED-plastic-egg, it MUST be WiFi enabled so I can change the color from Alexa or my phone. Hard (boiled) pass from me!
I raise chickens, and this seems like a great way to prank my kids. Ordered!
Ordered! I could put them around for a after dark hunt
meh scraping the bottom of the chicken coop…
From a Chernobyl Chicken?
@somf69 Those chickens are fine. It is the ones from Pripyat you have to worry about.
@somf69 @yakkoTDI What’s the half life of a Chicken Kiev?

Will these get here before Easter?

I missed this one, is it going to be available elsewhere?
@Fuzzalini
They’re at sidedeal.com. I can’t seem to copy and paste the link. Use code MEHRATHON for 20% off
@sammydog01 Thank you, I already found them and bought them. Too bad I missed the coupon. Thanks anyway.
@Fuzzalini @sammydog01
I just got some on Sidedeal, and the coupon code still worked!

Bought a dozen eggs. One failed to hatch. Either the chick has a damaged mitochondria or is still born. Either way, waiting for MEH to respond. Will it be CPR or a burial? The 11 others are excited and miss the sibling.
Several of mine are dead. Is it possible to change the batteries?
@fieldsnyc You can pop off the base and remove 2 tiny screws. Then the whole light thing comes out and you can put in new batteries.
@fieldsnyc @sammydog01 What kind of batteries do they take?
@fieldsnyc @Fuzzalini LR41, 3 each
I bought three sets. Two were fine but in one of the sets, two of the three eggs didn’t work.
I have a dozen and love the colors, especially the level where it gently traditions to another color. I, too, had one that doesn’t work, one that works for a few seconds then shuts off, and one that is very low/dull colored (think the battery is going). Waiting to hear back from support.

Update: I decided I really do like glowing things and ordered 100.
@sammydog01 Wow! It would be cool to see a picture of them all lit up, if you’re willing to show us.
@sammydog01 Or did you just mean 100 batteries, not 100 eggs?
@Kyeh Just batteries.
@sammydog01
Yeah, I realized too late to edit the first comment, but I was enchanted with the idea of having 100 of them glowing in your yard or wherever. That would be magical!
@Kyeh Now I want 100 glowing eggs too.
Perty extra large eggs that shine in the basket. Require physical on. Auto off.
2 didn’t work, 2 were so dim that I had to put my hands around them to see if they were lit up and 2 I could see the light but nothing like what was advertised.
Echoing above comments. Out of two sets, 2 eggs were DOA. I opened them up. observations:
@fibrs86 I replaced the batteries in my broken one and it’s still broken. It’s rusted in there and I doubt I can fix it.
@sammydog01 Since one battery was corroded can you clean off the contacts? Of course if the board is really corroded, it’s probably a goner.
@fibrs86 I tried- sometimes it flashes a few times before it goes dark. Maybe I could fix it- I’ll put it in the pile of things I should try to fix.
Love them. Bought 2 sets to put in Easter baskets. Both sets worked.
