Hi all, can anyone tell me which directions the AA batteries go in a CAb 1L remote? If I turn the unit over and take off the battery cover with the top of the remote facing up and away from me there are three battery slots. From top to bottom which direction does the + or - face for each one? Can't see or feel the +/- pictures. thanks

Top battery positive is left.
Look at the little battery pictures molded into the plastic.
GRJ, those are what I can't see. As per the post above the top battery is positive to the left. Do the batteries alternate, ie. left positive then right positive, left positive, right positive? Or do they all face the same direction?
The picture above is correct.
Usually...there's a springy neg contact and a fixed pos contact. I've kind of noticed...
I'm curious why you can't see the battery symbols stamped into the battery compartment!
Yup. Small spring clips on the negative side.

Because the batteries were in the way.....
Hi GRJ, the reason that I can't see the pictures of the batteries under the plastic cover (or the images posted on this thread and entire site for that matter) is that I am totally blind. Usually, I can feel the spring clips but these are pretty stiff and are hard to tell the differnce merely by feeling them.
thanks
That's an excellent reason Frank, I obviously didn't know that! 
GRJ, no probblemo my friend. That is why I was asking if all the batteries face the same direction or alternate in direction since I can't see the images folks have posted here. thanks again.
The batteries alternate.
So with the back facing you and top up.
Very top most battery the positive faces left.
Next battery positive faces right.
3rd battery down from the top positive faces left.
The 4th and lowest battery. Positive will face right.
