How long do sensor batteries last

So only had security system for a month now and the all in one sensor batteries are already dead. Anyone else having this issue?

How is the sensor being used? Is it possible there's an issue with the signal between the sensor and hub, whether strength or quality?

Just using them for doors when they open and close and for motion. But motion is disabled when someone is home. It is rated to last a year. Signal is good the hub is downstairs and doors are close by.

ANy chance a wireless device is nearby the sensor? It could be interfering with the signal between the sensor and hub.

I suppose swapping sensors around could be useful to test.
