Tested with two ezflash junior.
Both are the latest beta firmware 0918.

I put in a new br1225 battery and both discharged in exactly about a month.

In my opinion, it is not a hardware problem, but the latest firmware to solve the rtc problem has a lot of battery consumption.

On average, it seems to consume 50uA.

This is a consumption current that even cr2032 can only use for six months.

The battery on the EZ-FLASH Junior is not only used for RTC, but also for SRAM to keep data.

If you are not an RTC gamer and can reset to the kernel backup saver by pressing the button after each game session, you don't need the battery at all.
