Apples AirTagsand virtually every other Bluetooth trackermight last you a year before you have to change the battery.
I know this because all my AirTags are dead, and I always forget to buy new batteries.
Thats why theElevationLabs Time Capsulefor your AirTags is so appealing.

It promises to make your tag last 10 years instead of one because it uses AA batteries.
Otherwise, the construction is incredibly simple.

You remove the Airtags backplate and battery, then screw the two halves of the shell together.
Still, the normally coin-sized Bluetooth Tracker will take up more space than usual inside this case.
Its a bigger and heavier rig than the AirTag by itself.
You also need to consider the quality of your AA batteries.
In its blog post, ElevationLab recommended Energizer Ultimate Lithium batteries to maximize the battery extenders shelf life.
Either way, you shouldnt just leave the batteries in the shell and forget them.
Youd be wise to periodically take the shell apart to check on the state of the box.
Lesser-quality alkaline batteries may start to leak after a few years.
The Time Capsule is sold out on ElevationLabs site, though you cannab oneon Amazon.
