| + | [title] Removing Battery from PCB |
|---|---|
| + | [* black] This is what top of PCB looks like. The 2nd photo is after I've swopped batteries. Note that PCB says 'Jaguar-NiMH'. |
| + | [* black] To be super helpful batteries are spot welded together, and to pins, which are then soldered to PCB. Plus the batteries are glued into the plastic PCB support. |
| + | [* black] Note: The PCB is still powered until batteries are removed, so be carefully not to short anything! |
| + | [* black] After various attempts I conclude best approach as to use a small paint brush to apply white spirit repeatedly to gap between the batteries, and between batteries and plastic at sides of PCB assembly. I then left it 24h to do it's work. |
| + | [* black] Then force a small flathead screwdriver (with PCB on a flat cushioned surface so a not to bend it) between battery terminals, and the flat metal pins that are solder into PCB (button end of batteries). You will bend plastic and pins, but you should be able to break the spot welded joints. |
| + | [* black] Note: You can leave the plate at other end holding batteries together in situ. |
| + | [* black] Then using a thin knife blade try and losen the glue between batteries and plastic. |
| + | [* black] Finally using a pry tool in the corners, starting at DC-In connector end of batteries, try and life them out of plastic slots. If you struggling, use more white spirit, and check you've fully broken spot welds. |
