Remote is burning hot

[shildog]

Within 30 seconds of adding new batteries, the remote is actually so hot I can't hold it.  Just under the pad between the back and voice buttons.  It doesn't once new batteries are inserted.

Hey there shildog,

That isn't good to hear! Have you tried reaching out to the Chromecast Support team? If you haven't yet, please fill out this form, so we can escalate this issue further. 

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

Best regards,

Jeran

Thank you, I've seen multiple posts but no replies as to the solution so figured I would ask for help and how to contact CS.  I've tried going through the web portal but it was an endless loop.  Yes, thank you, I have filled out that form and am awaiting a reply.

Thank you for your help.

Hey shildog,

No problem at all! If there is an issue that could be considered a safety issue, contacting support is the way to go, because the forums sometimes take a couple of days to get a response. However, if you have trouble getting a hold of support, the Community Specialists on the forum can help create cases and get you the help you need.

You should have a higher tier of support reaching out to you via email, please continue the conversation there, as this thread will be locked after 24 hours.

Best regards,

Jeran
