Something between "Chaotic Good" and "Lawful Evil", I guess.

@nblr Is the idea that it works with a single battery and you can choose either kind of battery?
@timolaine Correct.

@nblr this is absolutely chaotic evil. The dissymmetry and layout of the thing make me scream and I don't even have a clinical OCD. It works in the same sense as the optimal 17 square packing works.
@ska Exactly. The infuriating thing is that it is actually useful design - it even could be construed as "good design" because it physically implements the "either AA or AAA, just one is fine" constraint unambiguously. grr!

@nblr God bless the glorious Mad Bastard who came up with this.

@meeper YES and NO.

@nblr that's some @NanoRaptor shit.
@pawv I fear, it's slightly below that level. @NanoRaptor level would mean fitting the matching battery in:

Obviously you just need a battery type XXX for this.

@nblr I don't see the evil part so def chaotic good.

@nblr something working doesn’t mean it’s not stupid. A AAA battery and a AA battery? The AAA would run out faster needing to be replaced and you have to stock two different types of batteries.
@griffin30007 @nblr
No. They cross over so you physically cannot use both at the same time.
You choose one or the other, and if you only have one in stock, you don't have to go out and find the other type! -
@timolaine Correct.
One or the other but not both. XORing battery placement. I approve.

@nblr Where can I buy this? Asking for a friend.

@the_moep The evil part? well… reading the comments…this design seems to upset some people unduly.

Where does the button battery go? -
@nblr
Where does the button battery go?@corvus That's right: It goes on the square hole!

@nblr Wow very clever! One AA in the middle and a few LR44 on both sides!!

@griffin30007 @nblr you don't need to put both...just one

@nblr
It's a great design. I like it a lot. -

@nblr Looking at all the comments, I would say that chaotic is a given, but the rest is pretty balanced, no evil intention here.
Chaotic neutral seems right… -
