Mi Problema

The battery failure warning came up after 358 cycles with a max charge capacity now running at 3613 (Max rated is 6700). I would always need a power-supply nearby as I'd need to plug back in within an hour or so of running.

Mi SoluciĆ³n

You need to press down firmly on the pentalobe to get it to turn as they are held in with Loc-Tite (blue). Once you break the seal, they all come out easily. I think the total time to replace was around 15 minutes? Really easy. I replace it with a A-Stock battery. It was around 95% of a new one. Should I have spent more on the "New" battery? Let's see how the life is.

Mi Consejo

No real tricks to this. Perhaps it would be smart to add loc-tite back to the screws so they don't work themselves out later.
