Well - i hate to butt in here but i can most definitely say that my wristwatch for example
most definitely indicates a dying battery by only moving the second hand every 2 seconds
instead of 1 second
- BUT it moves 2 increments each 2 seconds - but i have no idea if that has any
relevance!

Actually I would find it very odd that "digital" devices would run slower as a
battery
weakens. I mean even my battery operated clocks at home work perfectly fine without
losing time. When the battery "dies" they just cease to function.
