Hi Ummagumma1969,
Thanks for reaching out here in Roku Community.
We're more than happy to look into this further. May we ask what Roku remote you have, a simple or voice remote? Have you tried to re-pair your remote to see if it helps? What troubleshooting steps have you already taken to try to resolve the issue?
For reference on how to re-pair your Roku remote visit this page: How to fix your Roku voice or simple remote that is not working
We'll be waiting for your feedback.

I have 7 Rokus through TCL tvs and sticks. All have battery drainage issues. Please acknowledge the problem and solve it. I've tried all your troubleshooting ideas numerous times and nothing works. I'm going through battery weekly, sometimes more often. It's ridiculous. FIX it, please!

Again, do something other than your standard response. We have a problem, you've known about it for years and you continue to do nothing. Terrible!

I have 2 Roku 3941 RW units where the remote eats up batteries every 2-3 weeks. The Roku units are only 3 months old and we watch TV maybe 2-3 hours a day at most. I use the Duracell Copper top alkaline batteries.
Can this be corrected or a fix for this issue?

I have the same exact battery issue for a looooong time with multiple remotes and have tried numerous tips on these threads with no luck. What are my options here? I like my Roku but this battery thing is slowly becoming a dealbreaker. Is my best solution to use a competitor's product?
