Default FOB Battery Lasts 2 Weeks

Got my brand new '13 JKU Rubi in Jan, and 2-3 weeks later the fob stopped working. Cursed a little, changed the battery in both fobs, and accepted that maybe the fob just had an old battery somehow. Now 2-3 weeks again and the fob battery died again. Looks like its a trend. Any ideas what could be causing this? I've also had my '07 Sahara for almost 6 years now, maybe changed that fob battery 1 or 2 times. I don't think I'm treating my keys any differently.

That doesn't sound right. My fob going on 3 years with no battery change.
