There should be an extra compartment in remote controls which stores new batteries so that they can be replaced quickly. The extra compartment can then be refilled with recharged batteries for the next time. The flat batteries can be recharged by a USB on the device the remote's for.

Most remote batteries last their shelf life. So the spares would be flat (or nearly so) when the time came to swap them out. |

[neelandan] - these are apparently rechargeable batteries. [11thly] - why not store the new batteries within the device to be controlled (which is larger than the remote and has power available to keep them charged)? |

I actually don't agree with him. I think it'd be better to have a remote which slots in like a wiimote recharger, but that's part of my universal inbuilt battery agenda which i never quite get round to mentioning on here.
I also think remotes are to some extent the spawn of Satan. |
