Here's how to add the Onyx Studio battery.
It's not challenging. Everyone can challenge.
However, if the product fails, it will not be held responsible.
****************** ** ** ** ** **
I will add the contents.
****************** ** ** ** ** **
We recommend that you use an new battery.
Don't use conventional batteries like the video I made.
Small capacity battery will not be available
In the video I made, I use an existing battery, but it is better to dismantle an existing batter

We had a 1st gen Echo in our master bathroom for listening to music in the morning ruclips.net/user/postUgkxABghAEkaIDGZfHRBH3D3rBrlraNmnC71 and while in the shower. I didn't realize how tinny and awful the sound output on the original Echo was until we replaced it with the Studio. It was a sonic upgrade far beyond what I was expecting. Just wow. I love it because it's like having speakers IN the shower. My friend likes it because the music is so loud that she can no longer hear me singing. So that's a win-win.
I upgraded the battery of my Harman Kardon speaker by applying the same principle but I add 6 lithium-ion battery 18650 Panasonic 3200mah each. and the result were amazing, it can play continuos for 30 hrs for a single full charge. Thanks for this video!!!
I am glad to be of help to you.I hope you're happy.
Dominic Sarmiento nice! Is the charger taking how much time to complete the charge?
Dominic Sarmiento can u do a great video step by step bro
You only need to balance 18650 Li ion batteries when connected in series since you cannot balance them when connected in parallel. What affects the batteries (cells) when they are connected in series is that their internal impedance can vary up to 15% in a lot and 15% from each manufacturer. As the impedance rise then the temperature will also rise which damages the cell over time. If no management is present it may cause the bad cell to fail which can damage the other cells too. But I wouldn't worry in this applikation.
Dominic Sarmiento would really help if you put a link of your batteries
This was very helpful video. I bought a open box onyx 4 for 40 bucks but realized it was producing crackling bass when on battery power (sounded perfect plugged in). I figured the battery must be bad because the power light also never turned solid when plugged in. I ordered a factory style replacement battery and 4 18650 3000mah batteries. I cut the chip out of the original factory battery to repurchase and protect my new 18650 batteries from over charging (they are supposed to be protected but I trust the quality HK chip more then whatever they put in the off brand stuff). I also noticed the original battery leads were much thicker then the new ones so I cut the original harness off the battery and soldered both the leads to the new oem replacement battery and 4 upgraded batteries making a three way connection.
The speaker sounds amazing on battery power now, no more crackling and the power light turned solid after roughly 4 hours of charging. I'm not sure what the total run time will be yet but I'm happy that I have $150 speaker for 70 bucks now with the added bonus of much greater battery life.
I'm glad to be of service to you. My friend used it for over three years. She is a dance teacher. Hah!
That chip is on the battery? Dang I would love to see how you did that.
@@CrunkyOMan83 its right on the top of the battery. Just take a razer blade and gently cut the plastic off and you will see the chip. De-solder the contacts that lead to the battery and you can re-solder your new battery contacts onto it.
@@many8067 hello my friend, I saw you answer someone else about how to make the onyx play louder from battery (like how it's plugged in). Have you found out how you can do that with batteries?
@@caliguy1500 so for my understanding, you cut off the overcurrent protection from the old battery, then soldered that to one of the new batteries (on the top)? Then wired the rest of the new batteries to the one new battery with the protection?
No protection is needed, if you know anything about the electronics you can discover the pins that go to the original battery and you can connect 4 or 6 common 18650 batteries, the charger takes it as a single battery to all (as long as they are in parallel), I have already tried it and it works correctly by cutting both loading and unloading, sorry for my English
Hi. I would like to do my HK like you did. I already disasembled old battery. There is a plate bettween cells - I want to use it and connect to them 4 or 8 batteries 18650. And here is my question to you. If I connect 8 batteries, will the electronics withstand electricity and temperature? Please help
@@robertpiotrowicz6172 hello, the electronics should only support the input, not the output, the electronics take 6 or 8 batteries, as one, there will be no problem, when the electronics reach 4.3v it will cut the load and cut off the discharge when it goes down 2.5v
@@lfclefece Thank you. I allready done work with my HK Go and Play. I used 4 x 18650 Samsung 2600mAh. I connected it to steering board of old battery from HK GOandPlay. I connected 2x(+) to B+, 2x(-) to B-, 2x(+) and 2x(-) to 1xBM (one BM stays free). Now is charging, so we will see how it works when fully charged.
You would remove the original battery when doing this, right?
Thank you, do you remove the original battery but leave the original overproduction electronics connected to the device?
Than add some NCR18650B all in 'parallel' with empty speaker battery terminals (that you've removed original battery from) ?
You are a young genius, thanks a lot for sharing with us how to extend our fun with the Onyx studio.
I'm happy to be of help to you. friend
Added 3 18650 3.7V 2600mAh cells (with protection pcb board for each) using this tutorial. So far going 7h on battery and counting (without pre-charge additional cells). NICE!
I am glad to be of help to you

Они боятся постоянной зарядки. Я так потушил батарею на своем Onyx 4. сразу после гарантии. Прибор стоял на зарядке целыми днями, ионгда по 5 дней. Соответственно батарея повредилась. Нужно так: зарядил, и сразу отключил. Ну и до полного стараться на разряжать. Глупо звучит, и суперинженеры сделали так. Но колонка звучит СУПЕР.
They are afraid of constant charging. I put out the battery on my Onyx 4. right after the warranty. The device was charged all day long, for 5 days. Accordingly, the battery is damaged. It is necessary like this: I charged it, and immediately turned it off. Well, to the full try to discharge. Sounds silly, and the super engineers did it. But the column sounds SUPER.
two 21700 @5,000 mah works perfect thank you , young man.
Hi, your 21700 battery is protected?
Done this to the Onyx Studio 6 works great! Only added 3 cause its much tighter.
Do you know how to make the onyx 6 play louder from batteries when doing this upgrade?Like how it's playing from mains. And what batteries did you use?
@@ProfDrTestkees what u mean with play louder ? It wont have more amps just more capacity. I used 3 18650 batteries and put them in parallel
@@CheyyZ_ my comment seems to be deleted. I mean it to play as loud from battery as it does from mains. It seems that there are two DSP modes with one limiting the output by alot in comparison to the one where mains lead is connected.
Excelente video, muy didáctico y sin ningún tipo de música que muchas veces distrae la atención, espero que me funcione en un HK Onix Studio 2, saludos desde Argentina.
Buena suerte.
Thanks for great instructions!!! I was able to fix my HK Onyx 3 model and it worked great!
I am glad that my image is helpful to you.
did you have a dead original battery and added on top of that?
Original battery lasted only for 15-30mins. So, I've decided not to replace it for now. Another 4 batteries were added (4x LG Chem MJ1 18650 High Capacity 3500mAh)
@@1happyfuture1 leaving the old battery will be any effect on new one ?
@@prathaphirantha8752 I haven’t removed the old battery while installing the new ones and it works great. Cheers
recuerda que en la base de arriva de la pila lleva un circuito contador de cargas que este se bloquea a determinadas cargas y bloquea el paso de la corriente a la pila para cargarla en este caso lo que es el blanco y el rojo se ponen directos al terminal positivo de la pila nueva tu lo que estás haciendo es dejar la pila antigua junto con el contador electrónico lo cual cuando se descarguen las pilas que pusiste no te las va a cargar
Compa yo tambn lo ise y pienso q eso me esta pasando xq no caragan bn las que le puse ud que me recomienda que aga ya que le solde una de 2200 mhp ala original y paila siento q no dura como tal las baterias que debo hacer
Thanks for a great video!! Helped a lot!!
I usead an old laptop battery pack that had low capacity left. Opened the pack and found that 4 of 6 18650 batteries were in good condition and removed the original battery in the Onyx speaker and replaced it with these 4 used batteries almost according to your video (one 2-pack had one battery inside tho original position and the other outside on the side).
The Onyx speaker has now been playing for 11 hours on mid volume without no problems (still playing on..)!
So my tip to others, if you have old laptop batteries, check them out, some might be quite good.
That's a good way, man.
Maybe you can use it longer if you're looking for a larger battery.
Congratulations on a successful battery replacement!
Thanks for this! Had a laptop battery kicking around and was able to do this upgrade without ordering new ones. How long does it usually take you to charge?
thank you so much manny! installation was successful
Thank you for the tutorial, after I added 4 batteries in HK Onyx Studio no longer often 2 in cash so I'm happier listening to music for longer, thanks brother good job 🙏🙏🙏👍👍👍👍👍
I am glad to be of help to you
@@many8067 only one question, the charging controller of device is prepared for 5 batterys managing?
The translation is not working properly.
There are some inscrutable comments.
I'm sorry I couldn't answer you.
Thank your friend, you're awesome for sharing!
My harman kardon onix mini speaker had a crash while working, the two internal speakers work well, do not distort and apparently are not damaged, but the two passive radiators or suspensions no longer move and do not emit deep bass, check the passive radiators and they do not They have cracks nor are they detached. The plastic of the casing was not damaged. What could it be? Could it have to do with the sealing of the device?

Thanks for showing. I'm about to buy a used one of these...now I know how to take it apart on the forehand.
I was in fact looking for a battery upgrade as the original has a lousy 5 Hr of playing time before it dies. That would be about the only thing I have to criticize it for.
I agree with you. I use more than 20 hours after battery upgrades.
Thanks man! Great tutorial !
Ok parallel connection! Why did you leave the original battery? Your four batteries are different capacity than the original. If you connect different capacity batteries then it will ruin them. How do you balance them. The original charging system can not do that.
You are right.
It's my fault.
We need to use the same battery capacity.
in parallel you can connect any capacity battery without any additional pcb (2000 mah cell+ 6000mah cell= 8000mah cell)
in series you can't connect different capacity battery (actually you can but whole battery capacity= capacity of the smallest cell(5000mah then 5000 then 5000 then 2000 then 5000 and whole battery will have 5series connections but only 2000mah capacity )
This is a lithium cell, charge is voltage regulated for 4.2V. parallel connection is the right way to do this since the 1 cell parallel charge doesn't care for capacity, only voltage can not be higher than 4.2V.

many8067 can you please explain the more correct way to do this? Also if you remove the original battery and its cage, you might be able to fit two more new batteries. Even longer life
Thanks a lot for the video. Please make a video on how to upgrade Harman kardon Go+Play mini.
I am poor. I really want to try it if I can buy it cheaply.
Do I have to Solder those batteries together? Can I not use a Parallel Connector? Also will I need to use a different Charger?
works perfectly!!! thanks!!

Thank you for Video!! Going to do mine I just purchased.
I am glad that the video I made helps you
Greg Taylor what is the status now of your speaker? after following the video?
Hey Jaymar! I did it, but I added 2 more extra batteries for a total of 6-18650's (all connected to the included 26650 battery) & I have ran this speaker fairly loud all day from 8am to about 9pm & it never ran out of power!! It works flawlessly!! I was going to add 2 more 18650's, but the room inside I wasn't sure if I could add more. I didn't notice any sound difference whatsoever. This speaker doesn't use the inside space like some speakers do. Everything component utilizes it's own design in this thing.
I got this speaker on "Ebay" for $35 bucks & is a Manufacturer Refurb & it looked & worked like new!! I then also purchased 20 Samsung BN batteries from a guy who refurbs battery packs for tools (Dewalt, Milwaukee & other electronics too, etc.), but he also sells just the battery packs with no outer shell. All new batteries, but they are spot soldered so you have to tear them down into individual batteries. I wanted the batteries for 2 of my old vaping mods with internal 18650's to replace. These are top of the line batteries & would cost a fortune to buy them at retail.
So sorry for yakking on, but this works as long as you have all of the original "Circuitry/Safety Chips" in place, it all works out. It won't burn your items or house down!! Very important!! It only draws the power needed & with plenty of "Reserve" from the extra batteries, it has been well worth the price! I also am replacing some other Li-ion devices where my batteries are just not holding a charge like they once did. I just replaced all of my old laptop batteries (battery pack) with the new ones & it holds a charge like new again for that!!
If your a DIY'er or watch RUclips vids to fix things like me, you can bring some old things back to life or add much more run time/life to a product like this. Hope this helps!! Take care....Peace.....!!
QUESTION ! Bateries must be with PCB or without ? If you are soldering the bateries, don`t you fry the PCB ? What bateries do you recomend ?

Hi, what if I just splice 3 to 4 replacement batteries together, wouldn't that work as well just the same?
I don't care how many you do, bro.
Thanks for this video. I know I am asking you this question 5 years after you posted it so I hope you will respond. I am going to buy the 4 batteries to do the upgrade, but should I also replace the original battery with a new one or can I use the old one like you did in the video? My old one is completely dead.
I don't use old batteries. Please throw it away. Please use a new battery. The old battery broke down a year later. After removing the battery, I used it normally. I hope you get good results.
@@many8067 Thank you. Ordering it today! Thanks again!
I have one that I cannot connect to. The power turns on and the "wake up" sounds chimes; however non of the other buttons light up, pressed or not. I have tried pressing the bluetooth + volume up (and then down additionally) for factory reset but that did nothing. I opened it up and all the connections are secure. Does anyone know how to reset or troubleshoot this issue?
I have a question.The Device rolls back to 30 watts when it is running on batteries, is there a way to make the speaker run at 60 watts on batteries as well since we made this battery upgrade?
I am also doubtful about that.If it's settled, I'll write you a few words.
This would be awesome!
I'm trying to fix my speaker since it wont charge, from the 3-pin connector: are both the red and white cables going to plus? (Trying to understand why there are 3 cables)
How many hour of playing time and charging time my friend? With that mod battery
DO MINE! DO MINE! DO MINE! I got lost during the wire connection🤷 Gracias!!
Can you make a vídeo like this for the Harman Kardon Go Play? Maybe in one from a friend of yours? It would be nice to see with 2 or 3 original batterys and use that foam on the cables. But great vídeo man, you helped me a lot
If I have a " go + play " product, I will be happy to make additional battery videos.
But
I can't afford it.

Do you know " dlna "?
Buy a product that supports " dlna "

I had the extreme and sold it to buy a more powerful speaker, bought Harman Kardon then I asked for refund and now I think I will buy Extreme 2
Hey many8067. I exactly followed your instructions. Successfully installed 4 18650 baterries. My question in how long is the charging time? Been charging it for almost 20hrs, Power button indicator si still flashing. Thanks
Michael M
I am glad that the images I made are helpful to you.
The speed of charge is slow, but it takes too long for the high-end model to show how much charge is charging, but the studio does not. Once you have installed a dedicated app, you will notice the charge.

The battery used for this speaker has a protective circuit which can withstand durable charging for prolonged charging. I think six hours is enough.may be :)
Thank you so much !!

are those batteries looked like battery for vaping device?
Hmm... I don't understand what you mean.
@@many8067 I believe hes asking if those batteries are the same ones used in vaping devices as they look to be about the same size
Yes they are just 18650 lith ion batteries.
Yup yup. Sony VTC 6 or even better, 6A, are the best batts for this application. Or go crazy and parallel up 6 x 21700 like the Samsung 40Ts and get 24000mAh. That would be crazy.
Great job. I added battery. After running for a few hours, the power button started flashing red. What could be the problem?
the batteries must has about the same specs and is fully charged before connect them in parallel
I replaced a battery on studio 2 with 3500mah but quality changed. The bass seems to vibrate something too much... what could I have done wrong ?

So, Do you mean we should direct connect cable from new battery +/- to existing cable with existing battery right?
Thank for advise.
Remove the existing battery.
And connect only new batteries.
Use the original charging cable? Charging time? Until the battery is full
thank you so much, I have succeeded in following your instructions ..
but I have a question
1. I use 18650 3500mah 2 pieces so the total is 7000mah, how long do you think I can fill it up?
2. How do I charge?
does it have to be turned on to charge it? because if it's not turned on, the power light doesn't blink
1. The exact time is unknown. However, the device installed with 4 3,200 mah batteries was used for more than 10 hours.
2.2. If you have completed the installation normally, it will be charged with the original charger.
@@many8067 thank you for your quickly respond ..
for problem number 2, can I charge the battery if the harman kardon position is not on ??
because if I charge the harman kardon battery when its position is off, the indicator light doesn't blink. But when charging the battery when the position is on indicator light blinking..
@@user-ke9ob3wh6k In my case, charging was done normally.
If the speaker is plugged in while it turned off the red light doesn't blink. It's steady, when fully charged it turn off.

has it anyhow affected the acoustics of the speaker? i'm concerned about changing the airflow inside the speaker such that it is different to the designed one and therefore passive radiators wouldn't work properly.
I know what you're worried about.
but
I don't think it's possible to use it to make it easy for you to use it.
So far, there seems to be no sound quality degradation.
Maybe it's because I'm not sensitive.
itll sound tinny anyway, on battery power the unit only uses half power, mostly the subwoofer looses about 50% power when not plugged in. @Rofl Copter
Doesn't matter the amperage of the batteries? must be 3.4000mah?
You may use a different battery capacity But you have to use a protective battery.
What if I used a high Amp battery's like u would use for a vape
Could you possibly help.... my speaker was running fine. Then I used an old charging cord not original and I believe it had a short in it. I believe it might have caused a short somewhere on the speaker. Now it will not turn on at all. Not even when plugged in the the original charger? Any ideas or suggestions please
Onyx uses 19v. Maybe you couldn't keep it. I'm afraid it's not working. I'm sorry. I don't know how to fix this

Remove the main battery. And connect four new batteries in parallel. I don't need bms. Even if the main battery is running normally, you need to remove it.
I see that the battery is not removed in your video. How come? Thanks for replying.
@@many8067 how do I remove the main one? Simply remove it and keep everything else as it is? Charging light is not blinking, therefore I assume it is not charging.

I'm so happy to be of service to you, buddy.
hello why it is 3 wires in the battery?
Kool video! However lol i do not wana experiment with batteries. Is there a way i can buy the exact factory batteries for replacement?
Thank you for a video , as for you , will 26650 fit in there >????
I have never used 26650 batteries.
Perhaps the battery is too big to fit.
I think 18650 batteries are appropriately sized.
High capacity 18650 batteries
recommended not to be used
The product lacks durability.
Can i remove the original battery so i can install 4 pcs battery like you have used in the video. Will it affect the system if I removed the wornout factory battery.
I think there will be no problem.
I connected 4 batteries like the video to a new (not original) battery. However, when I put the volume on max or nearly max, the speaker shuts off and then it will not turn on again, unless I connect it to the charger. Does anyone know why this happens and how I could fix this? It is really annoying when being from home and the speaker won't turn on anymore.
First, I'll show you how to check if it's broken.
First of all, buddy, I'll show you how to make sure it's broken.
Please make sure the batteries are connected in parallel
2. If you're connected in parallel,
Remove all batteries and connect only one new battery (one battery alone will make the speaker work)
3. If it doesn't work, try connecting another new battery
4. If it works, connect in parallel with a normal battery only.
5. If it still doesn't work, the board may have broken for a reason I don't know.
My harman kardon was damaged when connecting the direct current, it no longer turned on and the Bluetooth button stays on, I already removed everything and left it as it was before and still does not work? What can be?
I think it got shorted while connecting the wires. The pcb appears to have been damaged.
Hi ! Why are you recommending now to remove the old battery ? I mean even if it is dead , since the other batteries are soldered in parallel to the original, even if the original is dead we just lose 2500 mah right? Why would it stop working ?
I can't tell you in detail, but the capacity of the old battery is different from the new one, so I think it's going to break down, and it hasn't broken since I removed it.
@@many8067 ok so you removed it and kept the 3 pin protector included for another battery?
hi.red black and white wire..what and where do we connect the white wire to if we remove the old battery?

Hi many8067,
I have read almost all your comment,
I haven't owned HK Onyx Studio but planning to buy one.
so you suggest bought the Original HK Onyx Studio (Onyx Studio 1),
Instead buying studio 3 or 4?
My question,
on sounds Quality is it the same 1-4?
is there any different listen on Aux vs Bluetooth?
Thank You Very Much.
Alfred Tambora. Onyx 1 has only bluetooth and battery is pour like 2 and 3, however 2/3/4 has minijack connection and microhpone for calls, but 3/4 are restyling and better sounded, only onyx 4 has more than 3 battery hour in use.
DanV thanks man, just bought last week the HK 3 and it last 4-6 hour when playing song on volume 25%
Actually it sounds great 👍
Sorry for the late reply.
To my mind, the studio series had the same sound quality.
But the latest version is definitely in good shape.
But it is fully available with Bluetooth.
Because aux has poor sound quality
I recommend studio one.
But I don't care what kind of product it is unless the purchase price is a lot different. :)
Hello, I made exactly the same arrangement, with the difference that I also changed the factory battery and I left put 5 of 2200mAh. Now the battery lasts about 8 hours, the problem is that I can not use it connected to the power because it automatically shuts down. What problem can it be ?, I can only use it with charged batteries. Please help me
Sorry for the English
Did you use a protective battery?
I use a translator. I can't give you a detailed answer right now. Can you take a picture and send it to me? I need a lot of pictures. many8067@naver.com
My friend.
What you want to say
Are you saying that you can't hear sound when you connect the power supply?
i wonder if you can do a video about update firmware for this Harmon Kardon speaker
I'm sorry. I can't do it.
Excuse me, there are two plugs on the back of the device. One is normal plug and the other is mini usb. I charge the battery with the normal plug, but I don't know what mini USB is. You have connected four batteries, can the charging module charge four batteries?
Unfortunately, the USB port only functions for OS updates
@@ramrocker1004 He's right.
I don't understand, if you leave the factory battery the voltage is doubled?
I never said that.
Does this damage the speaker in any way long term or damage while charging it after adding additional batteries ?
No. Batteries in parallel like this output the exact same voltage as just one battery. They just add capacity. But I would order a new replacement battery pack and buy cells that match the pack exactly. You shouldn't mix and match old and new batteries in any device.
@@MS-gn4gl however you saw him use the old battery too. You would recommend removing the electronics on that old battery (so that you can use the propitiatory connector) but remove the old battery?
also your unit emits an annoying hum from the tweeter if you approach the ear ???
I don't think the lines are fixed properly. Secure the line properly with a double-sided tape.

I bought the replacement battery from Battery Boys. Cost me $80, and now the back reflex is gone. I am thinking to return the battery.
Hi, do you thing I can put one battery holder for 4 battery ? Do you thing it can be fit ? So I can connect the +/- straight to the oem wire without any
Standard battery holders will typically require you to install the batteries in series, where the positive end of the 1st battery connects to the negative end of the 2nd, and so on. He connected the batteries in parallel, where all the positive ends are connected together, and all of the negative ends are connected together. There is a very significant difference between these 2 battery configurations. In parallel, each battery has its own unique path in the circuit, independent of the other batteries, and as long as those batteries are the same type of battery and rated for the same voltage, they should charge and discharge without a problem. In other words, if you hooked up four 1.5 volt batteries in parallel, the total voltage from the battery pack is still just 1.5 volts. However, if that same four-pack of 1.5 volt batteries were connected in series, the voltages of the batteries add together giving you a 6-volt battery pack - which could be a major problem if you connect it to a circuit only rated to handle 4 volts of EMF. The original battery pack will tell you what kind of battery it is (Li-Ion, NiMH, etc...) and the voltage it provides to the circuit. All of that being said, an easier option is to search online for a straight-up single replacement battery pack, then there are no worries.
How long does it take to charge the battery completely? and How long does it take to discharge it?
Discharge maybe around 15 hours and charge maybe 4 to 6 hours.
Hello, Many. I tore my back reflex rubber. Any Idea where could I buy the back vibrating sound reflet. Until I opened it, I always had a belief that this was a woofer!
The battery price you bought seems to be too expensive. Above all, I would like to express my condolences.
you can buy speaker glue (flexible glue)
Hello is very good but. im thinking about the power bank solution any idea ?
All-Express is selling a 19v battery bank. That’s $70.
It's expensive. It's bulky. It's unnecessarily heavy.
not compact.
If it's hard to add a battery, you can use a battery bank.
I want do it for the LG SJ7 soundbar, it just have 5200mha!
Is it safe to use 18650 battery with high ampere output?
Not at all.
It is important to buy good quality products.
Panasonic Samsung LG products
Question how can i by pass the charger module mt harman kardon doesnt charge the battery it can only play when its pluged in
I also would like to know the answer to this
@@puddud4 i figured it out i cut the charger wires off and taped the red and black on the battery ran wires out and i just charge the battery direct now and it works good
Why the wire of battery when attached to harman battery is getting heated?
Please use a thick wire.
It could be a poor contact. Make the solder stronger.
Do you think I can use 26650 batteries instead of the 18650 batteries? Do you think there would be a problem as far as changing the 26650?
I don't think there's a problem. But I don't think it fits the case. The price will be higher.
Available for $27 for 10pcs at Aliexpress
Thank you for your help and fast reply
Does this use the same battery charger?
yes
Sorry I can't really see it that well. Are you adding all the batteries in parallel or series or what? What's the total voltage and mAh?
All batteries are parallel. 3400 mah x 4 ea.
Parallel because you want to keep the voltage the same and increase the amps. If you were to do it in series it would increase the voltage and keep the amps the same.
Just discovered this video. I hope I will still get a reply. I found a 19000mah battery online do you think this is okay? I mean to replace my HK OS's old battery?
eBay sells the replacement battery for it now, just snaps on.
Yes but is to expensive...
My battery is dead, it only runs for less then half hour... Don't I have to replace it instead of just add more battery?
Please remove the existing battery and work the same way. It is not difficult. We recommend adding more batteries. It's available for more than 12 hours.
Can this be done with rechargeable AA batteries like energizers or Duracell??
no no no no only 18650
The brand name is:Hartman / Kardon.
no its not x)
No. Just no. It’s my name.
Hello, i have changed batteries for 2pack and 3 pack without stab, genuine battery have been taken out, used just controller. New batteries does not charging now, could you recommend something?
I think the original speaker battery needs to be functional, not dead. Same as a car battery, the engine will not start when trying to start on power cables if your battery is dead .
@@razvanchirculescu Remove the old battery.
Connect only new batteries.
It'll probably work normally.
Hey, is there any way to replace the 22650 with a small usb power bank or something that i could recharge with usb, assuming I repurposed the rear usb port for charging. My battery on my Onyx 4 is giving me little more than an hour now. I have a few small, 5000MAH power banks (at least bigger than the standard battery) and wondered if i could swap in one of those or if the amps/voltage wouldn't be sufficient. Im fine with wiring but suck at circuit math. I love this speaker but i hate not being able to recharge via usb or not even use a power bank when it does die. Does anyone know if a power bank could be used?

Because it is a 3.7v battery, I think it will work if I install the module of the cell phone battery bank.
Thank you for you reply! So, wire this to a usb connector and run it to the power input of the bank?
