I still don't believe that the "premature battery failure" in A1s is common. It certainly doesn't happen in *all* A1s - witness the number of people, myself included, who have no problems at all.
Kurt Grach reported a long time ago that a particular brand of sound card somehow drained power from the backup battery, but I've never seen confirmation of that, either.
Frankly, I tend to believe that the reported failures are due to some other cause, possibly mishandling during replacement. It's easy to short circuit the cell as you plug it in, and that ruins it.
