    Same brand != same tier of battery.

    There are different levels of battery quality. Adding a $1 battery versus $5 battery isn’t a big difference to OEMS who are buying millions to put in their 1000$ widget. Additionally economy of scale, and they want their remote to last a certain time so they pick a battery that will meet that standard.

    For retailing sales, users want cheap batteries and aren’t really concerned with the batteries actual longevity or quality.

    Check out project farm, I believe he reviewed some batteries a little while ago. You’ll see a massive difference between all of them
