This is misleading, as was proven by this post showing a Samsung QLED remote with both batteries facing the same way: [Link] NEEDS_MORE_RATINGS(19-3-9) Author

This battery design is not a special ingeneering. The devise requieres 1.5 volts instead of 3.0 volts, that's why the nodes are aligned in parallel connection instead of series connection. [Link] NEEDS_MORE_RATINGS(8-0-1) Author

The claim over "overengineering" is a personal opinión. If you'd want to argue that it is reasonably design "because the mouse only needs 1.2V", you would need to provide a source backing up that claim in order to warrant a valid CN. NEEDS_MORE_RATINGS(0-0-0) Author

The Apple mouse that uses replaceable batteries is not designed like that because of the symmetry but because of the really efficient hardware that needs only ~1.5V to work. [Link] NEEDS_MORE_RATINGS(4-0-0) Author

This is actually quite a common AA configuration: many devices (such as this mouse) only needs 1.5Vs to function, so having two AAs parallel to each other doubles the battery life instead of over-powering the device, and potentially damaging the electronics.

This battery configuration is common and used for doubling the battery's life without doubling the voltage received by the device. Over engineering is an exaggeration. [Link] CURRENTLY_RATED_HELPFUL(23-2-2) Author

NNN The person who made the post is talking about both of the battery’s facing the same direction, when usually batteries would face in opposite directions to each other see source: [Link] CURRENTLY_RATED_NOT_HELPFUL(0-0-1) Author
