Has anyone managed to replace the battery? If so, what type of battery is it?

The battery in these packs are sealed lead acid AGM (absorbed glass mat). I've replaced the battery in another unit and it wasn't that hard. If you have the pack that looks exactly like the one in the picture here, it's battery is 3.875W X 5.875L X 3.75 H and is rated as 18 amp-hour. With that info you can go to dealers like "Battery plus" or "batteryspec.com" and match up another. When I changed out the battery in another unit, I added some padding as was on the original which cushion the battery keeping it from rubbing on the housing as it's carried or rattling slightly. The battery alone should only cost ~1/2 the price of a whole new pack, so it will save you some (but cost you the time to do it).

I have not had to replace the battery for the last two years. Since the price is so reasonable, I would purchase a new one instead of replace the battery. It is nor worthy replace the battery. I hope that help.

I haven't had any problems with the battery. It lasted about 2 years. It was a little tricky changing the battery. I just used a small micro screwdriver to push it out withput moving the metal piece holding it in place. Then I slid the new battery under it. I hope this helps.

Unfortunately the battery is not replaceable unless you take the unit apart yourself. There's a couple of youtube videos discussing this but it may be more trouble than it is worth. The sides of the unit are glued together and need to be heated to be taken apart.

I personally have not replaced a battery and have not had the opportunity to do deal with that question. If you are able to open it, you should be able to see the battery and get the number or size from the existing one inside. I hope this helps, but I am not the expert, just a casual user, contact the maufacturer or go on line to e-how and pose that question and hopefully you will be able to get an answer.

I have not tried it, but since you purchased one, try unscrewing one of the ends and see if the battery is removable. it takes a special battery which should last you a long time

I guess that's possible, I have had no issues at all with mine. I believe if you go on their website or call them, you can order a new battery.

the battery is not designed to be replaceable. I have read that some people have opened the back and found that the battery is soldered in.

It is a built in Lithium battery. So, I'm assuming no way to replace it. They are asking me to assume the charge of shipping and send a $9.95 check for possible repairs because mine stopped working. That would probably be what you would need to do if yours needed a new battery. Since I've had mine less than 6 months I'm not a happy camper. Probably will not send it back. (This is their idea of a guarantee, I guess.)

It appears that the battery replacement is glued together by the factory. It seems that it was never intended to be serviced. The low cost of this unit would not make it cost effective to repair it. I'm a professional technician.

No, this battery is NON replaceable, unless your really lucky.. You can take it apart and remove the battery but you can't find the replacement for it anywhere. I took the one I have to a batteries plus store and they had never even seen that type of battery before. Even a google search brings up some asian website that would cost way too much for it. It's some type of proprietary battery UNIDEN used for this monitor.

I have owned two of these units and I could never figure out how to replace the battery. It may be possible, if you are more technical than me. I found that the power cords go out, but you can buy very inexpensive new ones on Amazon.

It is simple to replace the battery. You have to unscrew the battery cover, take the old battery out, replace the battery with the same type battery and then replace the battery cover.
