Re: Do all Roku’s drain remote batteries so fast?

I am having the same trouble with my remote.  The remote's batteries need to be replaced every three days.  It is a different model than the 3810 so this is a more widespread problem. 

Model: 3800RW - Roku Streaming Stick
Serial Number: YF006Y260366
Software: 10.0.0 - build 4209-55
Device ID: CU3936260366

Re: Do all Roku’s drain remote batteries so fast?

I purchased a Roku Soundbar with a Voice Remote. All I do with this remote is alter the volume. The batteries die each week. This is getting ridiculous. I want a new remote or a remote that does not need batteries to be replaced each week. How do I get a replacement? There is no one to call or email.

Yes, I have 4.  An obvious issue for Roku that has not been resolved.

Can you please provide the serial number of your Roku device from Settings>System>About? I'll be able to assist you further from there.

All I can say is I’ll never buy Roku again.  Bad support, imo they don’t care.

Re: Do all Roku’s drain remote batteries so fast?

I have a Roku Premiere+ Model 3921RW that I bought off Amazon a couple months ago.  My only complaint is that the remote goes through batteries about twice a week.  If I use rechargeable batteries, it's about every 2 to 3 days.  If I use non-rechargeable it's maybe every 3 to 5 days.  So frustrated!!  Why is this happening??  If I am going to have to buy a different remote (perhaps the more basic one that doesn't use as much battery life) then I might just replace the whole thing with an Android based streaming device.

Please...help....

I'm definitely experiencing the rapid battery drain issue - lucky if I can get 3 days out of new batteries.  Model 3921RW.  What do I do?  I don't want to spend money on a new remote.

The serial number for my sound bar is:

R6508E750925

is this the correct way of contacting Roku? There’s no one to speak to over the phone or email with? This customer service system is very strange to me.
