LevNet does not require a battery, so it will never get used up.
What advantage is there to having a device that is powered by premise wiring, if you can't get the wire there?
If there is no wire at the secondary location at all then yes you do have some problem, but at same time you do not necessarily have to extend wiring all the way to the first location like you would with a three way switch circuit, just grab whatever is nearby and send your signal over existing lines. Now a true wireless system does have the advantage of no additional wiring necessary, and some of what is out there today is probably better then what we saw 20 years ago. One of the most common things I have seen is the wireless door bell buttons - most of them I encounter do not work, may be more then one reason why, but I would guess dead batteries in the majority of them. You can press that button all day and nothing, knock on the door and they answer it
Stored energy (in the compression of a spring or raising a weight against gravity) is called potential energy.
Energy of motion (a moving weight or spinning flywheel for example) is kinetic energy.
One form of igniter stores energy in a spring as you push the button, transfers it to kinetic energy of a plunger as the spring mechanism trips, and then transfers that kinetic energy to electrical energy when the plunger hits the crystal.
"Kinetic" energy is energy "of motion".

Sorry, I had it wrong, and I did know that information but somehow had one of those moments where something just did not seem right about it.
I still have no problem with bringing it up and hashing it out even if I make a fool of myself on occasion - keeps us all on our toes with this kind of information.
