I am having the same problem as the OP.

I have had my Express since November 2022. I had no problem until May 2023.

The remote batteries drain about every 10 days.

I do not watch Youtube or use the remote heavily.

I have never used the remote for private listening (if it’s even able to do that).

I watch a couple of hours daily, usually on the same channel or at most 2.

I started Googling on the computer and found this is a common, recurring problem for people.

I hope someone can please help.
