Remote Control for Chromecast TV batteries dies after about 3 days.

I brought Chromecast google tv last year from last few months the batteries started draining every 3 0r 4 days. First I thought it might be the batteries and brought new pack of Duracell and same thing happened with them as well. This is happening for last one month I already changed 6 pair of batteries in last one month.

 

When googling I see lot of people complaining about the same issue such as @Bob Caffrey in this forum and in reddit. Is there a solution for this?

Hey there Anil1,

I apologize about the late response, thank you for being patient! Were you able to figure out that battery issue? If not, I'd be happy to help out, let me just ask you some questions about what's happening:

  • What is the firmware version of your Chromecast and Chromecast Voice Remote?
  • Are you using AAA 1.5 V alkaline batteries?
  • What troubleshooting steps have you already tried?

Also, make sure to replace all batteries at the same time. Do not mix old and new batteries. Do not use lithium-ion or any other batteries with rated voltage above 1.5 V.

 

I look forward to your response, and if you have any other questions or concerns for me, please let me know!

Best regards,
Jeran
