I haven't run across one of the "rechargeable remotes" yet, but it's my understanding that the battery is "much like its cellphone counterparts" in that after a while, the battery loses its ability to accept a charge, retain it and discharge it properly. In other words, the batteries in the rechargeable remotes have been known to be defective or to fail after a period of time.

Is your remote battery replaceable?
