Roku Ultra remote drains batteries within 2 weeks like clockwork!

My Roku Ultra remote drains batteries incredibly fast I have to keep replacing them. I never use headphones, I don't play games on it or use it for anything other than clicking menus. What can I do to fix this?

Same problem with batteries draining. This is ridiculous. Just post a fix. Clearly this is an ongoing issue. Please advise.

Running thru batteries still about every 2-3 weeks.... finally gave up on support and spending so much $$$$$$....      Have re-chargeables now.... hopefully at some point somebody will respond that knows what's going or cares,  or replace the remote I have or ..... ridiculous IMHO
