Use this guide to replace a worn out or dead battery in a GuliKit KingKong 2 Pro controller.
For your safety, discharge the battery below 25% before disassembling your controller. This reduces the risk of fire if the battery is accidentally damaged during the repair. If your battery is swollen, take appropriate precautions.
You’ll need replacement adhesive when reassembling your device.

I highly recommend pulling off the joystick caps before removing this board, since the joysticky get caught on the other board. Alternatively, one can carefully slide back the mainboard, then unscrew and remove the triggers. Then the mainboard can be lifted up very easily. Accessing the trigger screws is a little tricky this way though.
I wish I had read the comment about removing the joystick caps. My issue was getting the boards past the backs of the triggers. I tried partially unscrewing them and managed to get the board in, but it did not feel like a good process. With the triggers and sticks both in place, this becomes an exceedingly difficult process.

where i can buy battery? I think i get new gamepad with dead battery.
What are the dimensions of the battery so we know which battery to order?
I am wondering where I can buy a replacement battery, I have ordered several off of Amazon, but the connector is far smaller than ones I have found. If the size of the connector has a size that I could reference, that would be great as well.
Hi, do you know what size screw is used for the outer portion? mine is stripped and i need to buy a new one

What you should use is a PH #0 Screwdriver, not a PH #00
