TV remote batteries dying

[mjk1967]

Hello.
Picked up a 65" TCL last summer. The factory remote is going through batteries about every 3-4 months....crazy. I don't ever remember changing a remote's batteries more than once a year.

Any feedback?

Does the remote have voice command? They can be on listening all the time using up the juice faster.

You can try some lithium batteries. If you don't use the voice search function, you can unpair the remote and just use it IR. If it's still under warranty, TCL may send you a new remote, but that's probably about average battery life.

This is the most likely!
