Re: Roku remote draining batteries

Terrible if they don’t replace it just take out batteries after each use and put back when you turn on roku it will extend the life of them really unfortunate seems like a huge problem they won’t acknowledge

Am having the same problem. If I don’t pop out a battery when not being used just for one day the remote will not work. Please help?

I see that many other consumers have issues with batteries draining too fast. Same for me. ONE of my remotes nearly "eats" batteries every few days. It also drains them and leaves a smelly liquid from the batteries in the cavity where the batteries sit. For months now I have removed the batteries at bedtime every day! Help.

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

Here's my info: System: my TV is connected to my wireless     Strength: excellent    My streaming stick serial # is:  YH0076546251
