Please..
Anyone can tell me how to disassembllibretto 110ct battery ?
From a quick search of the archives and an off-list message:

From John Niemi:
PS. I managed to get the pack open with just a few slight scratches on the
visible parts of the battery pack (the part that goes hiding into the
Libretto
is pretty scuffed though because I used too much brute force but that
doesn't
matter :) I stopped to think for a second and used a very slow technique
on the
visible parts of the pack; I slid a very very small screwdriver in the
seam and
used a small hammer to tap it along the seam so that I never had to jerk
the
screwdriver in or out of the seam... I just tapped it slowly and gently so
that
the glue came off and the seam opened in little steps... I really don't
know
how to describe it but if someone is interested I could try to take a few
staged pics of the method I used.
My Reply:
I had a lot of luck cracking the edge by pressing a weak point with a wide
blade screwdriver until I heard the glue crack. At that point I was able to
use my fingernails to start opening an edge. Then I found that I could
insert a small 1/4 inch strip of plastic cut from a credit card into the
opening, and then just pull it along the side to expand the opening. I did
have to take a small flat watch screwdriver to one or more of the corners
though. In the end there was only one very small scratch that's hardly
noticible.
I swapped the contents of my L70 pack into the L100 pack, and didn't bother
to glue the sections together. It fits securely into the L100, and at some
point I may go the road you're going John.
From an off-list email from Raymond:
One thing I do regret is I messed up the pack casing a little more than I
would have liked. It's a lot neater I've found to get a thin, broad chisel,
put it straight into the seam at the back (connector end) of the pack and
push firmly until you hear the plastic crack (don't go too far or you'll go
through the circuit board!), move the chisel along the seam then repeat
(also do this either side of the plastic around the connector itself). Then
use your fingers to pull the pack apart and free the sides then the front
(you might need to get a little screwdriver up into the seams in the end
but try to avoid this because it does mess the plastic up somewhat).
