Introduction
If your battery keeps dying then refer to this short and easy guide on how to remove and replace your battery. The device components are delicate so be sure to take care when opening the device. Recommended for this guide are plastic opening tools and a phillips screwdriver. The most difficult part of this guide is locating all of the screws and physically opening the back panel of the remote.
What you need
-
-
Remove the single 6 mm Phillips #0 screw located beneath the sticker near the USB charging port.

Step 6 (disassembly and re-assembly) Only thing to point out is that the PCB on the bottom of the battery holder twists into the holder (small plastic holding feature). This is important to get proper alignment of the Micro-USB connector). When removing the battery holder make sure the PCB pops out of the snap that is on the opposite side from the screw that holds the Micro-USB connector. This avoids putting too much strain on the leads of that PCB.
Wish I read the comments before I did the work - came close to snapping the leads. To anyone trying this, the battery holder is not attached to that small pcb but rather there are small notches that hold the battery case in place. Knowing that will allow you to apply the right pressure in the right places to move it away from the PCB.
