No need for excessive force much less tossing it on the floor. I have trouble seeing how that would help much since the end of the battery cover is level with the end of the remote though the lanyard does give maybe a millimetre of space.
I have limited strength in my hands. I can get most remotes open to replace the batteries with no problem, but not the Kobo remote. The Kindle remote looks like the same design so I'm expecting it to be just as hard for me.
