Voice remote pro won't charge

We're having the same dead battery issues other Roku users have mentioned. We bought 6 of these expensive Roku Voice Remote Pro units (not to mention our large collection of older battery-draining Roku remotes). We were hoping to finally be done with replacing drained AA batteries, but only 1 of our 6 USB remotes will still take a charge. To add to our frustration, the Roku website is very carefully designed to prevent any attempt to contact Roku support. I finally broke down and checked this Roku Community forum, assuming that many other Roku users must be experiencing similar issues.

How can we get these 6 expensive Roku remotes repaired/replaced?

    Hi Community users,

    Thanks for reaching out to the Roku Community!

    Here are a few things to consider when charging the Roku Voice Remote Pro:

    • To charge it, connect the small, micro-USB end of the USB charging cable to the charging port on your remote, and connect the other end to a standard USB power adapter.
    • The status light (on the back of your remote) flashes slowly when charging and changes to solid green.
    • A full charge takes roughly 3 hours and lasts approximately 2 months under normal use.
    • Heavy private listening use drains the battery more quickly.
    • Your voice remote can be used while charging if necessary.
    • Make sure you are using the cable that came with the remote and that you tried using a different power adapter and power outlet.

    If the issue still persists with the Roku Voice Remote Pro not holding a charge, please let us know along with any additional information you may have that would be helpful for our team looks into this problem. Kindly include the serial number of your Roku device that is paired with the Roku remote so we can assist further.

     

    Best regards,
    Mary
