What kind of screwdriver do you need to open the battery compartment?

Youcll need as very small screwdriver. The compartment is on the very bottom and you unscrew it on both sides of the feet. The figure comes with batteries already installed. I've had three of the minions for about three years and I have yet to change the batteries (knock on wood).

We have had ours over a year and not had to change the battery but a small Phillips is what you would want to use.

On the side of the collar box on the collar itself (opposite of the prongs side), there is a rectangle opening with a recessed Phillips head screw. Once you use a screw driver to take the screw out, it pops off and you will see the battery compartment. Pay attention to how the batteries fit in it and replace them in the same way with the new ones. It is easy if you use a small screwdriver!

It requires a very small Phillips head screwdriver to open the battery compartment.

Use Phillips head screwdriver. The screws come off and you can replace with 3 AAA batteries.

All you need is a screwdriver (which is not included. At least I did not receive one).

No. who has a long enough extremely slender philips head screwdriver lying around? that's what you need to take it apart just to put batteries in. search for "screwdriver" among reviews

I do not have a screw driver. It seems to be a rather large battery for a screw driver.

Actually easy. I used a standard screwdriver to open the case, than just unclip battery from the housing.

There are two little tabs on the back side for two battery locations. Just pull on the tabs and it will open.

To open the battery compartment. The way this baby goes through batteries you are going to use it a lot.

This device uses two button batteries and can be found on the back under the small plastic snap door. These batteries are a bit difficult to remove, as they are seated deep in the well and have small plastic "snap" locks holding them in. I used a tiny bladed screwdriver to hold the little plastic snap clips away from the battery (careful: you don't want to break these) and then was able to pry the battery out with the tip of the screwdriver. A pain to be sure, but it can be done without too much difficulty. If my memory serves me correctly, the battery type is DL-2032.

You can open battery compartment by pressing the triangle shaped button (on the opposite side of the on/off switch) and gently wiggling the base off.

You're not able to take the back off to change the battery without a special screwdriver

If you look at the battery cover on the back, you will see a small tab. With your fingernail or something like a popsicle stick catch the slightly pointed end and push it to to battery cover, closing the 1/8" gap, When it touches the battery cover, lift it. You are correct, it's not the easiest one to open.

You need this Tri-wing screwdriver - to remove battery (except for MBP 15" 2009) or trackpad of 2008 Macbook Silver Unibody

My package came with Tri-wing screw driver to unscrew the battery. Other than that, you need regular screw driver to unscrew the bottom of the cover.
