Buzz remote and life of the batteries

[lougump]

The Buzz xr4500 remote seems to work well for a couple of weeks with rechargeables, then it seems to start having a mind of it’s own, and starts to malfunction, speeds through channels etc. Change the batteries and then it is okay again for another couple of weeks. Any suggestions?

[Ryu]

try to unpair and pair it again and see if that helps.

Batteries are an issue with the Buzz remoted. Rechargeables don't work well they need 1.4 volts to work properly and rechargeable don't have it for very long.
I will they could fix it.

I put my Energizer rechargeable in April in my BT-200 and I'm at 51% 4 months later with no issues.

try some good brand batteries or try arq-100 v2 remote. looking very promising remote and compatible with buzz 4000+ and essential boxes.

As good as the ARQ-100 is it doesn't come close to the BT-100 or BT-200.And the ARQ-100 works with all models including the 3000 series.

also per video all buttons on v2 are properly mapped for 4000+ and essentials.
