Use a plastic opening tool to loosen the adhesive holding the battery in place and remove the battery by hand.
Where do we buy a new battery from?
Battery specs would be great in this tear down so one can know what battery to get and have everything they need for the repair.
I have these available if you would like one. The specs are 3.75 volt, 5000 mAh nominal. The ones I sell are OEM, used pulls from overstock or upgraded units.

Bad news,
After three different calls to the Ring customer service line (just to be certain i was getting the true honest answer each time) i was told that the Ring stickup 1st generation cam - the one in this section is not available and never was. They suggest that this model was never intended yo be dissected as easy as we know it is. the best we can do is to find someone selling one with a damaged camera and removing its battery. That was how i was able to get my 1st gen stickup back in service again.

No reason to try this, no battery replacement? Have searched the Internet, can’t find a replacement!
Why would they not use the same simple replaceable battery system as the ring doorbell2
Would love to replace the battery, if I could find it online…
We’ll take it as a “No longer available” with no reply to the “Where can I get a replacement battery?” question.
There on eBay the batteries, search B15169 or LC-2017061601, currently only a us seller is selling them but a uk supplier will be offering them soon
I am selling these, if anyone wants some.
I realize this is an old post…
just make your own battery pack that has the same voltage with cells small enough to fit in the space.
The Stickup Cam takes a B15169 battery. These are readily found on eBay for around $20. Thanks for the instruction on removing the case.
Good instructions. Got a B15169 (or compatible, can't tell if it is OEM) battery off Amazon. It looks just like the original (i.e. two smaller batteries packaged into a 5000mAh pack). Also saw similar ones on eBay.
The only deviation from the procedure is that my original battery was adhered to the back panel rather than the main housing of my stickup cam. So the battery came out when I removed the panel. The main housing has two (non-adhesive) foam strips to keep the battery from rattling.
The replacement battery did not include an adhesive strip and trying to peel the old strip off the original battery was not successful. I just reassembled everything without an adhesive strip. There is enough slack in the electrical connector that I don't expect that any vibrations from wind, etc will be enough to knock off the connector, but we'll see.
Once I connected the wire, the unit sprang back to life and re-connected to WiFi. Hope this lasts as long as the original battery.
