for anyone who has ESU cab control system or mobile controller 2 how is your battery so far. for me it last but if i don't use the cab controller system for 2weeks the battery is dead and i have to open the back to unplug the battery from controller and then plug it back in order to start charging via usb. i might have bad battery.

I have two of the Mobile Control II for my Cab Control System. The batteries on both will go flat if they are left unplugged and not used for a couple of weeks. They're some of the earliest ones from 6-7 years ago.
I have no problem getting them to re-charge without opening them. Leaving them to charge for 24 hours always brings them back to life. I'm wondering if there's some app on them that uses power even when they appear to be turned off.
I now use a couple of old cell phone chargers to keep them charging when not in use. They only go flat when I forget them on the layout and don't plug them in.
ESU did have replacement batteries last year but I don't know if they still do after the management changes.
