Reuleaux Battery Removal

[dairylandservice]

This is for you guys that are dead-set on keeping the manual reverse battery protection in place that Jaybo has provided (instead of defeating it by grinding or cutting off), and are struggling to remove the batteries from the Reuleaux without ripping the shrink-wrap on your batteries.

Take a popsicle stick (or anything non-conductive) and slightly bevel one end of it with a file or sandpaper and use it to wedge between the positive ends of the batteries and the battery holder to disengage the battery from plastic ring and gently pull out.

Someone may have a better idea......if so I would love to hear it.

yea it seems like the ribbon should be set differently to better get that last battery out, but i have no problem in just pulling on the top of the battery, negative side, and comes out pretty easily for me.

I just pull out the - side first also, never had an issue yet.
