JBL Flip 3 Battery Replacement

[@corvuscoraxcorax]

I used this guide to replace my battery, thanks! Make sure you have the perfect Phillips screwdriver for the job. You will easily wreck these delicate little screws. Also - some of them are pointy and others are square. Make note of which goes where. I didn't have any fancy silicone or glue to close the hole above the battery. I don't think it makes any difference. Good luck. And to JBL: You could build it so the battery is a lot easier to replace. There's no planet B you know.

[@EnzoFerenczyo]

The silicone or glue is there in order to eliminate any vibration, in time you may hear the battery knocking about. The silicone on the wires and hole to the battery is a good precaution to prevent moisture causing corrosion, it will extend the life of your speaker, ain't nothing fancy about silicone, cheap at any hardware store.

[@MasterKoala777]

​@@EnzoFerenczyowill this affect the sound though? I don't use my Flip 3 in moist environments so moisture is not a concern for me.

[@MasterKoala777]

Thanks for the warning re: screws. Otherwise I'd assume they're all the same. I hope your Flip 3 is still fine. I just replaced mine's battery after 7 yrs.

[@spencerjose891]

Thanks for the video. It gave me the confidence to order a replacement battery rather than buy a new system. I was able to follow these instructions and take everything apart very easily. My battery was very swollen so it’s no wonder I was having problems. Cheers

[@akmp4L]

Hey Spencer Jose how did you remove the glue and the black tar to be able to unplug the battery from the circuit? I just opened mine and same issue as yours

[@spencerjose891]

Mr. Moreno I just picked it with needle nose pliers and a flathead screwdriver if I remember correctly. Don’t have to be overly careful seeing as the battery is no good and the silicone has to be replaced.

[@metalhalide4043]

Lithium Polymer (Li-Po) batteries do not like to be stored at full or empty charge for extended time, if not using any electronic device for extended time try to store them at 50% charge (storage voltage) and the Li-Po will last much longer..

[@dorinevesnogueira7109]

Perfeito o vídeo explicativo. Bem didático e, inclusive me deu forças para solicitar pela Internet a bateria para reposição. A questão do silicone, eu entendo que seria para não ocorrer vibrações. Vale a pena realizar essa mão de obra. É uma terapia ocupacional e, quando o produto é seu, você mesmo o fará com mais carinho. Uma dica: dobrar uma toalha para servir de apoio! Em se tratando de uma JBL vale o investimento e dedicação, afinal a qualidade dessa caixinha étudo de bom! Abraço!

[@SURYASURYA-db4no]

Thanks so much for this video... I wouldn't be able to replace the battery without this clear guide. Now my jbl flip3 is as good as new with just merely a fraction of the cost instead of buying a new one.

[@lkhawa29]

Hey, where did u get the battery from and how is it working now?

[@phongpagong]

Music sounded like he's trying to disarm a bomb! Nice!

[@miguelcarvalho12]

😂😂

[@azmodanpc]

Too bad mine had the plastic soldered through and through. The cable was melded on the plastic and the substitution was impossible, unless I drilled a hole in the hard plastic. Lasted almost 4 years but really bummed I couldn't change the battery (swollen). Never mind, I managed to remove the battery without problems, the black plastic made it look like it was a single slab of hard plastic, instead it was the "silicone". Ordered a new battery from amazon, will update if it works as intended :D Battery arrived, followed the guide and it works! Will update on the quality of the battery but I hope I'll manage another coupla years of usage. The sound quality is very good for its size.

[@thegonfx]

Awesome. It was pretty easy to replace the battery following your instructions

[@anacrusis79]

Good video. My batteri was very swollen and impossible to pull out. Had to drill (non pointy hss drill to not damage battery) a 6mm hole to the other end of the battery compartment which could be accessed from the other end of the unit and push it out with an allen wrench like I noticed someone do on a newer model with better access. Got the job done in case someone struggles with the same issue

[@rzely1]

Sounds good; I could not find a proper place to dril with the flip 3..

[@anacrusis79]

@@rzely1 In mine if I remember accuratly there was a screw with a washer in it which I removed and behind it an there was an incline that ended behind the bottom of the batteri compartment which is big enough to fit a drill bit.

[@aloveforsaken]

Thank you very much! This helped me fix my JBL flip 3!

[@bentuinstra4441]

I used a butter knife to get my cover off haha. Thanks for the fantastic video - I have a new life for my speaker!

[@EnzoFerenczyo]

I haven't tried this replacement yet, but from all I've read many people do not have the skills or tools, or patience. Don't use the cheap tools that come with some of these replacement batteries, they're junk. Get some quality precision screwdrivers, a phone repair set is ideal. You have to carefully think through each step. Never use force, glue can be broken down with heat, but on this speaker, I wouldn't advise it. Slowly breaking the glue seal with a painter's putty knife is ideal. The smartest thing to do would be to sharpen the end and heat it and slowly work it down the side of the battery till it comes free. He does quite well in this breakdown, but I would advise taking the flat ribbon cable off before removing the battery, if he slipped or if the battery suddenly came loose he could have easily ripped the ribbon cable. Be very gentle with the ribbon cable and especially the plug and connector, lift the plastic locking tab before pulling on it. Ribbon cables are very fragile.

[@muhammedithraff2159]

Did the replacement of the battery make anyone's speaker stop having that screeching noise??

[@christopherdeleon3015]

Also wondering this

[@muhammedithraff2159]

Just found out that when my flip 3 is charging the screeching noise doesn't occur but when it's not it happens

[@vicentemorande1558]

[@sandylevine5579]

Anyone know where I can get replacement ribbon cables...the 2 shown at the 2 minute mark.

[@A-Negative]

Thank you! Mine was doing some weird stuff and figured it was battery. Made it very easy to replace the battery!

[@HassanGhazi13]

from where did u order?

[@ryuuzaki24]

strange, I don't know if I have the same JBL Flip 3, but after opening the outer shell, I can't find the three screws to open further. In the parts where the screws should be I only have plastic. Will try to open it up further anyway.

[@ryuuzaki24]

Turns out, I had another model. In my model I had to get the outer speakers out and try to slide the battery out, which turned out to be impossible due to the amount of glue they put. Ended up tossing my JBL Flip 3.

[@KonstantinSachkov]

@@ryuuzaki24 it's another version (old one). Try using alcohol and heat air gun, it's possible 😉

[@ryuuzaki24]

Thanks! Ok, I will try again, let's see

[@duhowlett]

Same here. What a lousy production process... there is glue everywhere!

[@MasterKoala777]

Add me to the list of Flip 3 users you helped. Thanks for the tutorial 🙂. My Flip 3 is 7 yrs old, and it's my first time to replace the battery. When it was 6.5 yrs old, it could still work for 4 hours (10-12 when new). Then one day, it's suddenly down to 10 minutes only. But now it's back. Such a nice and speaker. I hope to get a few more years out of it. PS. I didn't apply any silicone in the hole where the battery cable runs thru. What will be the effect? Will the bass be affected, or anything else?

[@KonstantinSachkov]

@@MasterKoala777 great! Glad for you! This wire may produce some rattling sound on high volume.

[@MasterKoala777]

@KonstantinSachkov oh I see.. I do hear a faint rattling at full volume, or when playing very strong bass. Will add some silicone later. Thank you again sir. 🙂

[@josefierro3466]

donde compraste la batería, no la puedo pillar

[@firstlylastly1410]

Has anyone done this to fix a squeaky playback? My battery on this model will say fully charged but then playback is terrible, becomes squeaky and sounds like nails on a chalk board. Then it automatically turns off. Would it be worth just trying to change the battery, or will I need a new speaker?

[@KonstantinSachkov]

Change the battery.

[@barb318]

Is this the solution for when the Flip 3 suddenly starts “screaming” even though it is fully charged? I’ve used it only very occasionally for about five years, and I’m wondering if this loud, ugly noise that I’m hearing after running it for only about an hour now is a battery issue.

[@KonstantinSachkov]

Possibly it is a battery. Original battery can't live so long 😁

[@cesarriberi5029]

es un pegamento lo que se le pone en los cables de la bateria? Que roducto es?

[@armandeus]

Silicon

Thank you for your vid ! I have 2 questions : what size of tape did you use ? And I have seen on other videos that the battery is often glued, did you not have the problem ?

And what are the white and the black sort of tape you use ^^ ?

[@KonstantinSachkov]

High temperature adhesive tape (yellow) is 15 mm size, link in description. And any thin double side adhesive from local shop.

[@KonstantinSachkov]

@ black tape was originally sealed.

[@benthorney5080]

Is it hard to take off the grill, and can it be damaged by taking it off?

[@azmodanpc]

Use a spudger like he did. You'll have to exercise some traction but it's pretty sturdy (the Jbl plastic, that is), try to use a flat surface so as to minimize the dents.

[@benthorney5080]

@@azmodanpc thanks for the help, but i got it off ages ago

[@azmodanpc]

@@benthorney5080 No prob, every time I try to open one of these devices I fear breaking everything. If the plastic is not too used and old, it's pretty elastic and sturdy.

Есть какие-то отличия по батареям в зависимости от парт-номера ? или важна только модель аккумулятора ? иными слвоами если покупной аккумулятор отличается только парт-номером, но не моделью подойдет или нет или нужно чтобы парт-номер аккуумулятора и модель совпадали 100% или не обязательно - чтобы подошел по размерам, вольтажу, распиновке коннектора и т.д ?
