Tbh m8, mine isn't heavy on batteries at all, but I do use duracell or equivelent in it.

Either your remote is faulty or you need to buy better quality batteries.

I cant get the fcuking back off the controller ive tried everything within reason even cutting my hand open when trying to hack it open with a knife

[Spennyboy]

m8... hold the remote towards the tv... and the lil plastic pully, push it down and pull it back, and it will come off

yeh, had sky for 2 maybe 3 years... replaced the batteries once or twice. duracell rule!
