apple tv 4k remotes drains battery fast

Only had my Apple TV 4K (latest model) for 2 months and all of a sudden the battery in the remote dies very fast. I charged it yesterday day to 100% and woke up this morning it said charge battery was at 10%. I charge it 100 an 1 1/2 hours ago and it’s already at 90. It’s been working great going weeks without charging. Could this be a bug with the latest OS update?


Apple TV 4K, tvOS 14

Have you reset the remote and redone the pairing between your remote and ATV box?


[Again,] I suggest resetting, actually redoing the pairing, of the remote with your ATV4K by following the last proceedure in this Apple Support article: If your Siri Remote or Apple TV Remote isn't working - Apple Support.


My Siri Remote is about a year older than yours. It only needs recharging every 6-9 months.
