Nothing makes us happier than a device with an easily replaceable battery. We feel the engineers at Nest Labs must have been thinking of us when they added these numbered flags showing three easy steps for battery removal.
We dutifully follow the steps to remove the battery:

Step 2: Pull the battery.
Step 3: Unplug the battery connector.
Step 3.5: Profit???
