How is the Wii Motion Plus (Included) Remotes on Batteries?

Question being, the Wii motion plus was an ATTACHMENT, which would take more from the battery power. Possibly not much, but being that the motion plus is included in the controllers now, has anyone noticed battiers not lasting as long? Any difference? (I have yet to buy a remote with Motion Plus included)

They should last for more at least a week or two unless you play your system quite frequently. I don't have to replace the batteries too often, but then again, I don't play my Wii that often. My handhelds get most of my time.

Get the energizer inductive charger set. It saves me a lot of time (they come in either a dual or squad charging station).

I remember when I relied on batteries it got annoying, I can't specifically remember how long it took to run 'em dead though.

Oh yea, I def got some rechargeable batteries fo sho! lol. I guess there really isn't a big difference in battery life then. I figured there wasn't, but thought I'd ask since it's basically a must use add on, since it's built in now. I thought maybe that might effect battery life, but I don't really see any complaints. Looks like my question has been answered ;D

How do you replace the batteries in the motion plus controller? I can't seem to figure it out. I charge my controllers overnight and when i go to play, the batteries quickly start to die. I need to replace the batteries but how do you get the battery thing open?
