These two old Makita 1434 drill batteries have surpassed the end of their life. I was trying to get a look inside so I could replace the cells but the case has no screws, look at the pictures. There aren't any under the label either.
Their Ni-MH, so can I replace them with Li-on? As long as their the same type of cell (possibly C) it should work?
Thank you.

Is this a good question?

Press the button on the side of the battery and pull:

I know I can get them new, but it's cheaper to replace the cells and get more capacity.

@pccheese thanks for the accepted answer and the nudge over the finish line ;-)
Congratulations Mayer!!
That's quite an accomplishment and other than @oldturkey03 , it's (500K) pretty much out of reach for a long time to come.
@mayer congratulations buddy! This is an awesome achievement!

Just a thought, after you get case apart(sonic welded/glued) take lots of pic's to aid in proper reassembly of contacts/wires/etc.
