Try smacking it - the battery might not be in full contact 100% of the time :P

Same here. I haven't looked into it though and haven't even tried the other remove that came with it

I'll get off my lazy arse and try that and report back.

my other remote works fine. Confirmed the problem with the remote i use though. Popped it apart and tweaked the metal spring tabs that make contact with the battery to put a little more pressure on the connections. Not alot, just a little bit.

Seems to be working better so far but time will tell.

Give that a try, see if it helps.
