Thanks so much for your tutorial. I followed every step and managed to replace the battery with no problems. One word of warning for those planning on doing this though - Bose have soldered the battery to the power supply board and not all of the replacement batteries come with one pre-attached. I had to desolder the four through wires and then solder them back onto the replacement battery. If you don't have a soldering kit, make sure you buy a battery with a PSB already attached or if you buy one without, take it to an electronics repair shop and get them to do it. Thanks again for the great video though - very good tutorial!

Hi Nicholas, Thanks for this video. I was able to dismantle this damn speaker due to the battery not charging and the speaker itself not turning ON!:( Here's what happened though after fully removing the battery and the power board from the mainboard; looking at the apparent difficulty of desoldering/soldering the speaker wires from the powerboard and the available replacement batteries which seem to be all made in china(the original is Made In Korea)😥, I decided to retrace all the steps recommended by Bose to revive the battery. I then proceeded to reassemble the pieces together but partially; just the battery and powerboard to the mainboard. Plugin the charging cable but lo and behold I got the amber light blinking!!. That's a very welcome and surprising site, to say the least. The battery got charged 100% after about three hours. It's now playing my fav pieces beautifully as if nothing happened:) Thanks again!!

Thank you so much for the tutorial. PROBLEMS I occurred along the way - 1) once I got the battery out it didn't just disconnect I had to pay for someone to unsolder and then re-solder new battery for an additional fee of £25.Then to find out later, at my peril, that soldier, soldered the circuit board backwards. Make sure you the circuit board is replaced correctly. 2) Using the tweezers in the gap of the male connector to reconnect the female connector is a good idea. Saves a lot of time and stress. 3) Replacing the speakers - make sure the wires are tucked away around the circuit board (not on top) and the holes are in line with the back of the cover. I spent a lot of time readjusting why it wouldn't fit. Look at the video and freeze frame to put back correctly. 4) Make sure the rubber around the cover (back/front) is on correctly so, it can easily clip back. 5) Recharging battery - the video shows a low battery (flashing yellow light) and so when pressing the on/off button there's an audible voice that prompts you to recharge however, for me, there was no auditable sound just a flashing red light. So I need a full charge. Overall, Great video! Lots of good ideas.... Thanks!

I found your video useful and I've read all of the comments. I'm going crazy from all the talk about "Mother Boards" though. There is NO MOTHER BOARD involved. There are circuit boards in the speaker assembly. A Mother Board is a board with many long connectors into which daughter boards are plugged. The electronics are on the daughter boards, or in the case of these Bose Speakers, on the circuit boards. A Mother Board is used to connect multiple circuit boards/daughter boards, together.

Bloody hell. Thank you Bose for making things so f*cking complicated for no other reason than planned obsolescence! I have the v1 and the v2, and from what I can see on another video, the battery on the v1 is so straightforward to replace that they could have done it exactly the same on the v2. Plus, I've been owning the v1 for 8 years, and the battery is still not dead, where my less than 6 years old V2 died today, but let's assume I've used it more. Anyway, your video is great, but I think making battery replacement, on any kind of electronic devices, so risky to achieve should be forbidden. How many consumers will have the skills, the tools (your replacement battery came with the soundboard but if it doesn't, you need a soldering iron) and the patience to swap the battery instead of chucking the whole speaker (which is still actually functional) and go buy a new one? Honnestly, this drives me mad.

And after removing the four screws, the battery slides out. Slide the new one in and replace the screws, and you are done. Unfortunately, I followed his instructions to the letter, only to discover, after removing the grills, etc. That the battery connection is built into my unit and all the work, and slightly bent grills was not necessary.

If I had realized the motherboard should have been attached, I would have returned the battery prior to opening the packaging, and at least got a credit on the correct battery.

You must run new solder through old connector then suck it out with the braided wire. Put in new battery and solder new wire through it.

I found a battery in amazon but it has some cables which i'm not sure if i had to weld them to that motherboard, i don't know exactly how that works.

It's borderline criminal how difficult they made that for no reason. They have an access port on the bottom to remove the battery but refused to use a connector.

how did you realize the problem Was a battery rather than other things like microswicth or whatever?
@nickwb2 жыл бұрын
Well, the issue I was having was rumbling noises because the plastic mounting parts on the battery broke from being dropped. But if everything is working fine other than the length of a full charge or the speaker not being able to turn on at all, the issue could very well be the health of the battery. Of course there’s no way to tell without taking it apart and testing specific components. Sorry there’s no easy answer, good luck!

He forgets to say that putting in the new battery requires to take the old one off the motherboard it is attached to which can not be done by just pulling it off. Someone needs a soldering gun to melt the endings and then pull the wires off. Then you will need to succeed passing the new battery's 4 wires into the holes of the motherboard somehow and solder the edges on the motherboard so that they can stick on it.

That depends on where you got the battery from and whether it comes as a battery unit only, or if you manage to find a vendor that sells the battery with a PCB pre-soldered.

Make a video how to run bose sound link mini without battery
@nickwb2 жыл бұрын
Well unfortunately in order to do so you would either have to essentially create an external battery yourself or wire it to a grid which would make the speaker stationary. In both cases it’s worth the little extra money it costs just to replace it; for safety reasons.
