And we know there are always warnings about disassembling a battery.Įven if the circuit board is just stuffed a little into the white foam-looking stuff, a slight poking with a ballpoint pen revealed that its texture is like the toughest type of condensed foam, and the penpoint didn’t dent it. We won’t know enough until someone disassembles the battery, or at least tries to take off the black tape-like covering off the back (the side with the circuit board). The circuit board may cover the whole back of the battery. That was my first thought, but now I realize that’s based on nothing. I may have misled by saying the circuit board was stuffed into the foam. Also another potential Navigon replacement with wires already attached. This battery has 4 terminals and all we have to do is to solder the terminal to the board via jumper wires. A possible substitute that I saw was the battery for a Navigon Pocket Loox N100. It’s sorta irrelevant, but you asked for dimensions: 3.5 cm x 5 cm 1 3/8' x 2' not including the top circuit board part. Top of battery with white paper pulled aside, revealing more of the back tape-like covering.

Next closeup on the white background shows my fingernail holding back the black tape so you can see how the circuit board goes into the white foam stuff (is the white foam the lithium power source?). I didn’t disassemble more because this is a battery that came out of a working Connect whose right button failed, so I plan to use it in another Connect when its battery fails.ĭisassembly entailed removing the two tiny Phillips head screws, then prying the battery off the back–it’s glued on.įirst closeup on the white background shows the tissue paper-looking stuff peels back and you see the black electrical tape looking stuff. It seems to be one solid unit of circuit board stuffed into the battery proper. Like no battery and connector I’ve ever seen. Can anybody post the physical dimension of this battery and the profile of the terminals? Maybe we can adapt an existing cellphone or another battery compatible with another Sansa model.
