    Dude, they have fucked up batteries so bad. I have batteries that are 2 years old, new in packaging that are leaking. Almost every time batteries die in a remote, it’s because they exploded.

      There are definitely two classes of batteries now.

      The batteries sold to oems to go in a product last forever just like they did 20 years ago when they came with “no leak warranties”. Because Roku doesn’t want leaking batteries in their box that sat unsold on a store shelf for a year before the consumer bought it.
