can the battery be changed when goes bad

There are four tiny Philips head screws on the back. It's likely that removing them will get you access to the battery. I don't know how easy it is after that and I don't know if removing the back will void the warranty.

I own the hand held unit not the watch and I don't think the battery in the hand held unit an be easily replaced by a lay person

Not sure I would recommend you contact Customer Support. I used my all season without any battery issues.

You can buy batteries and change them. It is pretty easy, unless you are within the warranty period I don't think any store will take it back

I have not had to change the battery yet. If you have a Batteries Plus in your area, I would suggest you take it there just to get their advice. That is what I will do.

I don't think there's any easy way to get into this thing to change the battery, but you won't need to think about replacing the battery for a LONG time. Battery life is VERY good on a single charge (about 25 hours), and if you really need to run it longer than that between charges, you can plug it into a car charger or AC with an appropriate "power only" adapter.

It is a built in Lithium battery. So, I'm assuming no way to replace it. They are asking me to assume the charge of shipping and send a $9.95 check for possible repairs because mine stopped working. That would probably be what you would need to do if yours needed a new battery. Since I've had mine less than 6 months I'm not a happy camper. Probably will not send it back. (This is their idea of a guarantee, I guess.)

Yes, replacement batteries are available, but not for the purpose of swapping out of to extend ride time. If the battery were to stop holding a charge it can be replaced.

There are some batteries that can be replaced. There is apparently another internal battery that can only be replaced by sending back to factory. It is claimed to have a long life.

The battery can't be replaced by you. It needs to be sent in. As for how long they will last before replacement, i don't know. A long time probably. I've only owned one for a few months so i can't be the judge on that. But my friend has had his for a few years and he uses it a lot. His is still working fine on the original battery.

Not without a lot of effort. There is a metal flap in the bottom that can be bent open and the battery taken out. Good luck finding a replacement of that size and voltage.

You don't change this battery, you recharge it. If the battery has failed it will need to be returned to the manufacturer.

I've had my Gardena for over a year and it still has a strong battery. Therefore, I haven't tried to change the battery so, I don't know about replacing the battery. Sorry.

Yes, you have to hold in the button. I don't see a way to replace the battery.

Yes, make sure to follow the instructions on charging the battery or it will need to be replaced. �

the battery is not designed to be replaceable. I have read that some people have opened the back and found that the battery is soldered in.

The battery is removable, so as long as you can find a similar version of it, you can replace it.

No. You'll need to buy another battery for it. Be VERY, VERY careful with the key/latch that's used to lock/unlock the drawer that holds the battery. It is more fragile than it should be and the slightest amount of pressure in opening or locking it will likely break it. If anything were going to be the Achilles's heel of this device - that would be it.

No it's not replaceable but the battery won't stop holding a charge for many many years. By that time you will have moved on. Also It has an internal overload shut off so you won't fry the battery.
