what charges the remote?

If you're talking about the key, I don't believe it gets charged. It has a lithium round disk shaped battery that you need to replace if it goes dead.

I think it's the BMW keys that get charged when in the ignition. There are no metal contacts on the mercedes smartkey.

Mercedes recommends chaning the batteries out 2 times a year.

Yes. The BMW key is a great idea. BMW also uses their keys to pull data about the owner for service needs, etc.

Seems to be hit and miss as far as the battery goes. On our S, the first smartkey battery died within the first few months. We replaced the battery and has been working fine since then (2-3 years).

So I wouldn't worry about it too much and the battery is really easy to replace.
