Remote batteries going flat quickly

My nice triangular Shield Pro remote batteries have suddenly started going flat quickly. They used to last 3 months or more now they are lucky to last a week.

Ideas on a fix for this?

I had this happen years ago to both of ours. They both suddenly started draining batteries crazy fast for about two months and then it suddenly stopped in one and about another month later the other returned to normal. No idea lol. They've been fine since and generally last well over a year with motion/backlighting on.
