FYI, alkaline batteries are quite magnetic and, if placed close to your
compass, can cause a deviation.

Found this out on the Skywagon some time ago, with extra batteries in the
glove box, at least a foot and a half from the compass. I generally use
Duracells, for which this warning applies, haven't tried others.
