Is the battery consumer replaceable?

According to the manufacturer it is not, it's called planned obsolescence. They don't want you to change it because you are not going to buy a new one and it's bad for the business.Technically it is possible to change it, spare batteries are available on Amazon and elsewhere and you will need to know how to use a soldering iron.As one guy with a bloody bandage on his finder was demonstrating how it was done on YouTube, "It is possible, but it requires a bit of skill" he said.

No. I have two Oral B electric toothbrushes. I bought the first one in January, 2008. Still works fine.

The toothbrush is sealed so I don't see how you could replace the battery. You can replace the batteries on the timer / display. I own three different Oral-B models having bought the first one in 2009 and it still works fine without any battery replacement to the toothbrush. The timer / display batteries last for about six months; we use rechargeable batteries. Hope this helps...

Yes, you can replace the batteries. They are a 3V Lithium, type CR2032. Hope this helps.

I do not believe you can replace the battery. I contacted the seller of mine about this and got conflicting info. They lastly told me to pry off the back to replace the battery which I believe will break the unit if attempted. My 2 still work so I have not tried it yet.

Doesn't look like it can be replaced. Can't find a way to access the battery.

Yes. The replacement battery can be purchased at Walgreens, CVS etc. You can easily replace it.

No, its an internal battery, which can be replaced by Sony or a qualified technician.

I believe the battery is built in and I don't think you can easily replace it. But I could be wrong about battery replacement.

It is not replaceable. And the battery life is horrible. Only around 2-3 hours.

It is replaceable. If you use it less than 5 minutes per use a lithium battery should last a year or so.

I haven't had to change the battery yet, but it has 4 small screws on the back,so I'm pretty sure that it is replaceable by the owner.

Yes. Easy to remove. You can replace it by buying another one when it eventually konks out as well. But the battery on mine has been good now for a long time. Havent had to replace it yet.

Yes, the battery can be replaced. I did just that and bought a replacement here on Amazon (12V 5AH Rechargeable Sealed Lead Acid Battery-$15.00). Simple to do. Just remove the screws from the bottom plate, slide the old battery out, pull the wires off and vise versa to install. Took about 5 minutes

I have been on line to try and find an answer to your question and I was only able to fine replaceable recharegeables, at battery superstore. I do not know if there is a standard replacement. hope this helps !

I no longer have my unit, but if I remember correctly, the battery is NOT user-serviceable. At least that is what the instruction manual stated.

You cannot replace the rechargeable lithium battery that comes w/ the unit, however, the battery capacity and life span will hold more than enough charges to satisfy even the most active users. Thank you. IZZO Golf

Yes. I'm not sure if the battery is replaceable by us (the consumer) because there's no obvious means to remove it. I assume Samsung could replace it if it ever became necessary to do so. The included charger is thin and light - very portable.

Hi na,the battery is built into the device therefore I do not believe removing and replacing it is an option. The charge does last a very long while however.
