Default turn off controller for regular controller and Blu-ray Disc Remote

When you turn off the system does that automatically turn off the controller (for both regular controller and Blu-ray Disc Remote)?

Also, is there any point in turning off the Blu-ray Disc Remote while the system is on? I mean, would it actually save batteries to do that?

Maybe this bluetooth tech is confusing me ... I would assume when the system is off the controller (including B-r D remote) is off too

TIA

Turning off the system also turns off the controller(s).

Don't know if it does for the BD remote. Mine seems like it powers itself down after a few minutes of non use.

Yes, when you turn off the system, the normal controllers will automatically power down too. This does save batteries on the controllers as far as I understand it.

The remote goes into "sleep" mode after a certain amount of time and you have to wake it back up by pressing something.
