How can I change the battery and what size? I bought 6, 4 are working, I love them. I really don't want to send any back, I want to make them work.

I ordered one and it didn't work at all....so i replaced the battery (at my expense) and it still did not work. I sent the comment to the seller....no response. I wish i could tell you if it worked or not.....

I have 2. They do not work. I would never buy these again. Do you think that this is an endorsement of these batteries?

Very easy...turn the device over..there is a round cap with a slot in it..place a coin in the slot..turn it counterclockwise..the cap will pop off.. pry the battery out taking notice which side of the battery is facing up..replace the new battery the same way.. replace the cap. It is a good idea to check the battery in both the sending and receiving units..I own 3 of these.. and 2 of them had weak old batteries rite out of the box.. I really like them.

I was in the same boat bought 3, they went bad sent them back to were I bought them. I liked them so much I bought another 3 thinking I just got a bad batch but within a month they stopped working so I sent them back also. Great idea and they worked very good when they worked and that was not for very long. If I was you I would pack them back up and send them back to the place you got them from, call first though.

First I would look to make sure there is no plastic stuck to the connectors. Also you should be able to take the original battery and the yesoo battery and verify that they are the exact same size as for the length. If all checks out good contact yesoo and I am sure they will assist you and replacing or refunding your order. Hope this could help!

I've been pretty happy with mine. Quick readout but I couldn't figure out what type or how to replace the battery. Mine still is working. I bought it last November.

I havent had any issues with my battery and ive had it since september of 2012. I suspect the battery issues are probably more due to over charging, im traveling a lot so i dont have a lot of time to leave it on the charger too long. Anyway, to answer your question, I myself dont have the answer but I did a search on it and found this. www.fixya.com/support/t13198485-philips_norelco_bg2040_change_battery it has a bunch of useful information. looks like you can change it but youre going to have to do some soldering. sounds fun.

My apologies for the delay. I have never had to change the batteries so I have no idea how to help you. I will contact the manufacturer for details. Thank you.

Mine were the ones that did not work only after a few months. I cannot answer your question. However if they are not being used the batteries should not be draining to the point that when you need them in a real live EMERGENCY they don't work! You don't have the luxury of stopping to switch out the batteries. My units are being replaced, but if this happens again I will certainly be calling Wagan again! These are new on the market and in my opinion maybe they shouldn't have been launched until ALL of the bugs were worked out. Not let consumers be the guinea pigs!

New batteries did not help? Mine have been working fine. You can take it to any recycle bin in your area or put it in your own recycling bins for pick up. If you haven't had it long and new batteries don't work, I would contact the company who makes them.

I ordered this battery and it does not work for me either...I have no idea why but it is not the same battery shown when I ordered it. I actually never knew it did not work - because I only use it on the desk and it is plugged in. I really feel that I need a refund.

To be honest I did not discharge them first. I put them in the bays that worked. I had problems with a few of them. I now just tried the bays that did not work worked, but with a different kind of battery. There is something wrong with mine. Bummer

The battery can't be replaced by you. It needs to be sent in. As for how long they will last before replacement, i don't know. A long time probably. I've only owned one for a few months so i can't be the judge on that. But my friend has had his for a few years and he uses it a lot. His is still working fine on the original battery.

Gary, I would love to answer your question but the truth is I'm still waiting to get the 6 I ordered 2 months ago. I think I'll have to order from somebody else and chalk these ones up as a loss. Sorry I couldn't help. -Wayne
