Are the batteries difficult to change?

The batteries are very easy to change. Easy as changing the batteries in a flashlight. If I can do it, anyone can!

It has two lights that each take 3 button batteries. Yes, you can replace the batteries.

I have not had to change the battery yet. I make sure I turn the switch off as soon as I am finished computing. However the switch is hard to see and is easily forgotten.

It is not difficult to change the batteries o. This either. The mechanism can stay on the bike while the batteries are being changed. I hope this helps.

Yes, the batteries are replaceable (but not by a typical user)- you must disassemble the unit and have soldering skills. I've replaced mine almost yearly. It takes about an hour, but is cheaper than using the Electrolux option.

Yes, but you must take the back off, not a pop out battery, still very easy to change...

Not difficult at all. Just grasp the battery box firmly and pull straight out.

To change the batteries, you need a very fine phillips screwdriver. It is like doing surgery, easy for something to slip out of place.

I installed these locks in my house about eight months ago. I have not changed any batteries yet. The battery replacement is not hard. You have to unscrew the lock but don't have to take it all apart.

I have never changed mine. I have had to change the battery once in over a year.

Yes. The only thing I've found tricky with these is getting the battery compartment open. Once I figured it out, it wasn't too bad. Don't forget to turn them off when you aren't using them -- the battery will run out! (I use them at work and accidentally left them on over the weekend. Luckily, I had a spare battery in my desk!)

Connie, I'm honestly not sure. We tried to pry it open, because you can see a battery in there. I suppose you can change it- if you can get to it! Seems impossible to open.

The batteries are difficult to get in and harder to get out. I haven't have a problem. Be sure the batteries are facing the right direction and try to turn them a bit to be sure they have good contact.

I have had mine for almost 6 months and have not had to change the batteries.

If you want to get into taking the unit apart (disassemble it), then yes you can replace.. there is no 'open door' to change the batteries.. you need to solder-desolder the old (and new)-replace-- reassemble.. otherwise you can't..
