Use this guide to replace a worn-out or dead battery in your Logitech Craft wireless keyboard.
Lithium-ion batteries have a limited lifespan. If your keyboard dies quickly and doesn't hold a charge, it may be time to replace the battery.
If possible, follow this guide after your battery has fallen below 15% charge—this is indicated when the battery light on the top edge of the keyboard is red. While your Craft keyboard has a relatively small battery, any charged battery is a potential safety hazard if accidentally bent or punctured.
If your battery looks puffy or swollen, take extra precautions.
