How difficult is it to change batteries?

Very easy - has a small end cap that you can put a coin in and turn and this comes right off with easy access to battery.

Easier than most battery operated devices. Turn the dime sized cap on the bottom with a coin, screwdriver, fingernail(?) about a quarter of a turn, the cap pops off and there's the battery.

There are four small Phillips head screws that need to be removed.It can be frustrating to make sure that everything is assembled correctly after replacing the batteries, but it is possible to do so and should not take more than about 5 minutes.

Yes, it isn't really that difficult, but it is a little unique. You have to take out the key part, which is the same way you would change the battery. Then you will have just the old shell and the circuit board. There is a little hole in the front of the circuit board thing (in the yellowish part) and there are two holes about evenly spaced on the green part of the board. What I did was use a metal tooth cleaning device (like a pick) and pried the board out by first pulling on the front slot in the yellow part, then I used the hook of the pick to get into one of the round holes in the board itself and pulled it the rest of the way out. Use firm, but gentle pressure. I figure if I broke one hole I would still have the other one. Just be careful, take your time, and be gentle. I'll try to include a pic if possible.

I installed mine over a year ago and have still not had to change the four "C" size batteries. I installed battery comparment right next to the cabinet door so when the time does come to change batteries, it will VERY easy!

Yes you can...the older models had to be returned to the manufacture but these new models offers this option to change out the batteries yourself

I have never changed the batteries...It has worked well ever since we got it. That's been about 4 months now.

You can't change the battery. It's permanently closed. I don't think you've been able to change the batteries in small calculators for 30 years.

Not difficult at all. Just grasp the battery box firmly and pull straight out.

I did not find the battery difficult to change, but, it is a very small battery, of course. And I am a bit younger. Best wishes.

Yes, a tool is provided to remove/replace the flip cover and the battery. It isn't quite as simple as changing a flashlight batt. but it shouldn't prove to ba a challenge to most.

Very easy! Just unplugs and slides out. I have 4 batteries that I use when I go fly - takes 30 seconds to swap them out.

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.

If you mean to take the case off to change the battery? It's not difficult at all. It kinda just peels off and then goes back on very easily also.

I have not had to change my batteries yet, but I would guess that the batteries would be fairly easy to change without changing the mounting status. My lights have worked flawlessly since I installed them a few weeks ago, and I am extremely happy with them at this incipient point.

I havent had to replace it, but yes, it should be easy. The remote cover has 2 small phillips screws, and its one of htose flat batteries.

Yes, you'll need to remove one of the devices to replace the batteries on the right-most device.It is not at all difficult.

To change the batteries, the back pops off and AAA batteries go in. Simple to do, though the latch on the back may be a bit stiff.
