Roku remote battery drain

How often do you change your Roku remote batteries?

I find myself constantly changing them. When I check the old batteries they are something like 1.37 volt each. Effectively not even drained out. Why does the Roku remote need such high voltage?

Re: Roku remote battery drain

Hi @daines13 

Thanks for the post.

Battery life will vary based on usage. For normal use, the remote batteries may last two months or longer. Does your Roku remote support private listening? This may also be one factor for the battery drain.

Please reply here with the serial number of the Roku device associated with the affected remote. It can be viewed by navigating to Settings > System > About. I'll be able to further assist you from there.


All the best,
Kariza
