Follow this guide to remove or replace the battery in a Keychron K10 Max Wireless mechanical keyboard.

The battery powers the keyboard during wireless use and allows it to operate without being connected by a USB-C cable. If the keyboard loses charge quickly, will not turn on in wireless mode, shuts off unexpectedly, or has a swollen or damaged battery, the battery may need to be replaced.

Caution: If the battery is extremely hot, swollen, puffy, or emits a strange odor, do not attempt to remove it. Swollen batteries present a higher risk of fire or explosion, and the fumes may be harmful if inhaled. Review the What to Do with a Swollen Battery guide for more information.

Before you begin the repair, turn off the keyboard and unplug any cables. Be careful when handling the battery, and avoid bending, crushing, or puncturing it during removal.

  Lay the keyboard face down on the workspace.
  
  Use a 2.5 mm hex screwdriver to remove the eight 4.5 mm screws from the back case.
  
  Carefully separate the front frame from the keyboard and set it aside.
  
  There is a clear shield that sits right above the arrow keys. This shield is to diffuse the LEDs from the keyboard, and it can fall out easily. Just remember to put it back if it does when reassembly.

  Slide the keycap puller over the keycap until it grips underneath.
  
  Pull straight upward to remove the keycap.
  
  Sometimes the mechanical switch itself comes with the keycap. Just remove the switch from the button and reinstall the switch.

  Remove the 19 keycaps to access the screws underneath.
  
  The photo shows the only keycaps that need to be removed. Mechanical switches do not need to be removed for this repair.
  
  Use a Phillips #1 screwdriver to remove the thirteen 7.5 mm screws.
  
  Carefully lift the number pad side of the keyboard plate
  
  Do not fully lift or remove the plate yet. A ribbon cable is still connected underneath.

  Use the wide end of a spudger to push on the connector tab to slide it out of its socket.
  
  Do not pull on the cable wires. Pulling on the wires may separate them from the plastic connector and permanently damage the cable.

  Use the point of a spudger to push on alternating sides of the battery connector to "walk" it out of its socket on the I/O charging board.
  
  If that doesn't work, use a pair of tweezers to firmly grip the sides of the connector and pull straight away from the socket. Hold the tweezers closer to the connector to get a better grip.
  
  If you're having trouble, try rocking the connector side-to-side to loosen it.
  
  Avoid using pliers with sharp teeth. They can slip and cut the battery wires, permanently damaging the connector.

1. crwdns2955114:07crwdne2955114:0 Battery
  Do not bend, puncture, crush, or aggressively pry against the battery. A damaged lithium-ion battery can leak, overheat, or catch fire.
  
  The battery is held down with a simple adhesive that covers the entire bottom of the battery. Use isopropyl alcohol with a syringe to loosen the adhesive.
  
  Tilt the frame slightly to help the isopropyl alcohol flow underneath the battery. Once you get an edge lifted off slightly, start applying more isopropyl alcohol under the battery.
  
  Be slow and patient while removing the battery. Just keep applying small amounts of isopropyl alcohol to weaken the adhesive, and give it time to soak in before prying.
  
  Do not force the battery loose, as bending or puncturing a lithium-ion battery can cause it to leak, overheat, or catch fire.
  
  Once the battery is removed, place it adhesive side up so it does not stick to the work surface
  
  If the adhesive remains intact, it may be reused during reassembly.
