Elvie disassembly battery access dead battery revitalize procedure

Elvie disassembly to get at the battery or fixing internals. You will need a T9 and a common screw drivers for disassembly. Cellphone disassembly tools work better by not marring the plastic shell. Go very slow when removing the retaining plastic ring only allowing enough give to slide it out. Once it is broke it is broke, no replacements unless within warranty. Putting it back together is in reverse and everything should snap back in place. Parallel charging to revitalize the battery brings up the voltage so that it is recognising that there is a battery to charge. You can look up "parallel charging" for more technical information. I used speaker wire and using enough strands to fit the plug and touch the positive wire to the positive side of battery and negative wire to negative side of battery for a few seconds. Any 3.7v battery will do. Then test to see if the Elvie charges. I have another video that bypasses the disassembly and goes straight to the parallel charging via mini USB attached to a 3.7v battery. Hope this helps. Comment if this helped you out.
