It will be a miracle,if I pull this off. And you will get all the credit-great video!

So I have to retract my statement. You are exactly right. I have the Bose Mini link Generation 1

So I'm not quite sure but I was able to take the four screws out of the bottom of the battery housing and the battery just popped out. So there's really no need to take it all apart like that because you can just undo the four screws on the bottom you just pull it out just thought I'd try to help you out but I appreciate your effort

Looks like a huge pain in the bum, mine would never go back together properly

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.

JBL is so much easier!!!

Just cut the ribbon and splice

This is exactly the video I needed. Thanks a million.

Very helpful. Thanks. Where can I get a battery that won’t explode?!

Anyone needing a battery have one available

Thank you good video, thanks for speeding it.

Crap. This is t the easy replacement vid. I have this type of thanks for the vid. Looks simple.

+200,000 views? I think there is something wrong with the battery.

Ridiculously complicated job, video makes it look even harder.

Only video I’ve been able to find that actually works!! Perfectly done and very quick and easy. Thank you so much!!

YOU OPENED IT THE WRONG WAY BRUH 🤣

At 4:10 my whole white thing broke off with the tiny metal parts in it. Will soldering them back on fix it? They are so small, do you think it needs a really thin wire?

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!

Finally a nice clear video on how to do this. Thank you!

I love the way you talk and explain more than that your video camera shows perfectly I love all that you said and did keep going boy and thanks for your help

Cheers, btw "orientated" is correct British English!

Nice

Thank you. The amount of prying I was doing felt like I was going to bend the aluminum lip. I appreciate this tip man 🙌

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.

Thank you 👍👍👍

Great video Nicholas.You should be an instructor for Bose. Where did you get your battery with the green board already attached. The ones I’m seeing do not have the board. Thanks again for the great video. Bill Brown

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.

They really didn’t want that battery replaced, did they? Good tutorial.

Thank you! Got my bose working again! Greets from Brazil

Since you are getting rid of them could you just use that sharp needle point tool and poke it into the rubber and pry it out?

Bro, I've been trying to turn these out for the last 20 minutes. I searched for another 20 minutes and with the 2 minutes of your video, I got them all out. Mine were burned in place haha

Lol like the many others, I was trying for quite a while to remove these dang things. I appreciate the video.

Thanks for this video. Helped me out a lot. 👍

In other words buy a new speaker

Yours has been the best video on the topic. Thankyou Sir!

I need battery

Este bato hizo puras pendejadas, no me da confianza XD

Hi sir I need bye Battery can you help me please

Yeah this damaged the metal and bent the metal support ring.

Nicholas, you are so good at explaining something so complicated! You almost convinced me to try this ridiculously complicated battery replacement. But alas, I read your comments about Bose repair service that costs $55, and I wimped out! Off to Bose it goes! You are a phenomenal teacher, and I hope that you are doing something with your gift. Not too many videos posted... a shame! Seriously incredible help video! Kudos!

Great video. I succeeded with your most helpful guide. Small note: Bose uses T8 sized torx screws (you said 9 early in the vid). Cheers!

Thanks bro for Sharing your Video Watching from Philippines

It is better to use a pair of side cutters, grab the site in rule it out there is a notch, or you can grab the seal and roll it out no banging

Hey Nick 😊 thanks very much for your video! I managed to get my battery replaced today and it has worked out well. The battery I ordered did not have the small circuit board attached so I had to solder the wires from the new battery to the old circuit board (not easy for an amateur like me 😂) but I’ve managed to get it to work and it still sounds great. Couldn’t have done it without your help 👍🏼👊🏼. Cheers, Mike

Thanks for the vid, but my replacement battery arrived with no connector or PC board. on the ribbon cable. There was only a ribbon cable with four bare leads on the end that would need to be soldered. At that point, I said, "screw this," and abandoned the idea of using the speaker unplugged from power.

Hey. This is a terrific video. BUT ..... Before you take the grills off etc. Take the screws out of the battery. Newer models of this speaker are a little different. 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.

it just rips. no matter what angle i try. I think mine are so old and worn the plastic wont stick together which explains the oil leaking. found a few rips when i first looked. maybe going to try a rubber dissolvant or something because i cannot pop them out like this. its into pieces now fml.

I am deeply disappointed by the design of the circuitry housing, which I find to be inadequate and hindering repair. I purchased my Soundlink mini 1st generation for INR 16,800, along with an additional INR 3,800 for the pouch. I cherished this device, even writing an independent review after four months of use. Unfortunately, it now appears that the battery has failed, indicated by a blinking red light when I attempt to charge it. Bose no longer services this model, and the necessary battery is unavailable or prohibitively expensive from online sources. This experience has soured my opinion of Bose and other tech companies that produce such poorly constructed devices. I believe it is time for consumers worldwide to voice their concerns and consider boycotting Bose products. An independent agency should conduct a thorough audit of such practices. It is regrettable that a company of Bose's reputation has failed to meet my expectations.

Very Helpful! Thanks
