Any tips for getting the #*%($& bottom on the battery case? I haven't been able to do it yet.

Yes I can help. Hold light upside down and twist the entire base counter clockwise

You have to turn it to get it open to close it or lock it back you have to line it up with the markings inside with the ones on the inside of the cover , it's kind of tricky but once you get it down pack you will have no problem opening n closing it again .

Think everyone has this problem. Below the display is a small button like protrusion, push in on that and, volia, the battery door opens on the other side. The plus side of the battery goes down in the holder. You'll love this guage, it works great.

There is a tiny tab that you have to push down when removing the wire from the battery. try using a pen to do so. It is located between the wire and where the metal clip connects.

Turn it bottom up. Then look for a square depression in the plastic bottom. Look real close in good light and you will see an symbol that shows what direction to push and slide to open the compartment for the battery.

Open the case like you are replacing the batteries and there is a black sliding switch. I think there are three settings. Slide it to the desired setting and you should be good. Good luck.

Take battery door off, there is a small knob in there. Use a small screwdriver. The seconds are not marked off. Just have to estimate.

I hope you didn't already buy this. I bought it and left my battery in it for 24 hrs and when I checked out it was only on 1% ! I'm not sure if it's suppose to let you know if it's charged or not b/c mine didn't come with instructions but my charger didn't let me know !!

screw bottom off. put battery in. screw bottom back on. if it works, hooray. if not, try flipping the battery. battery should be 50% or newer to get the best experience. if it still doesn't work, you may have an d.o.a... contact your seller.

Just squeeze tabs on either side of the lower part of the handle and pull down. Battery should slide out then slide fresh battery in and your good to go. Tabs are tight at first, but battery will come out.

I was able to replace my battery. But right now its always blinking on one bar. It seems to be charging now though so I will be patient and let it charge. Hope fully bars will return. When its charging the bars blink right? Mine doesn't do that anymore. @Richard L How did it strip the battery case?

Remember that the + side faces up which means the whole side of the battery is the positive terminal. The negative side faces down and from the looks of the battery case that button is very thin so with the button down on the plate, the test bar should easily contact the case.

Unscrew the battery case, the part with the button. There's probably a tag or plastic between the batteries so it didn't get turned on by accident during shipping

turn your laptop upside down, the long strip at the top holds the battery. just lift it up and out and than replace with battery. What you are seeing is the actual battery itself, or rather the outside.

I had the same issue. I am going to try to use a different five prong screwdriver to unscrew the battery. Good Luck!

Yes I found that it took a bit of time and patience to wiggle the battery out of its slot. I actually took two thin wooden wedges and was able to get the tip of each one both sides of the battery and slowly nudge the battery out of it's slot. When I put the new battery in I put some duct tape on each side of the base and fashioned a handle so the next time I could more easily pull the old battery out of its slot. It is just a matter of having a thin strong implement to wedge in the small openings on the side and work the battery out of its slot. Good luck

Hello Brian,The instruction should be on the back of the black box. Please remove the plastics on the battery terminal before using the battery.Thank you
