My Anker A7908 is having some issues and I wanna take a look inside, but I'm not entirely sure where to start with taking this thing apart. I don't want to just start prying an pulling in random places. Does anybody have any suggestions?
Is this a good question?

Manufacturers love to hide screws under rubber feet. Try prying that rubber base off.

You were right. Thank you very much!
Hi! I got the screws out but I'm not seeing a good place to be able to pry the bottom off. What did you do once you got the screws out?

@printedwaffles, after that there is only one tiny part that may still stick a bit.

Thank you, I'll give it a try soon. Did you use a plastic/rubber/metal pry piece to get that to pop out?
I'm pulling it apart because the battery is toast. Do you happen to know the right type of replacement battery for this thing?
Thank you! Very much appreciated!

Important in my effort to get the bottom off - there are FIVE screws in the bottom!
I was trying to pry off the bottom after having removed screws on four sides and it wouldn't budge at all. Only by luck did I realize a fifth screw was hidden under the glue strip.

Now that I have it apart I was able to check the battery. It's at roughly 4 Volt, so fully charged, but it still won't turn on. Any tips? The only light I get is the red light when connected to a charger. the on-off button or the others aren't doing anything.
