Is the battery compartment one that screws on and off or is it like their "Braun" model that you have to pinch the sides together and pull.

I can't see any way to remove the battery compartment, look like all one piece to me. there's nothing in the instruction manual neither. I'll take a picture of it if that helps.

It's a rechargable battery but I don't see any way to open the actual toothbrush to put in a new battery. My last toothbrush was the same - it lasted about 8 years and I repaced it when the charge wouldn't hold anymore.

You have to destroy the unit to remove the battery. The compartment does screw in and out.

The model I have is rechargeable. I simply set it on top of the stand, which is always plugged into an outlet, and the brush recharges. I don't see any compartment on the device to open.

Just squeeze tabs on either side of the lower part of the handle and pull down. Battery should slide out then slide fresh battery in and your good to go. Tabs are tight at first, but battery will come out.

The cover turns "Counter Clockwise" 90 degrees (to the vertical position), then use a pin or other sharp pointed object at the edge of the cover to lift it off. I see no need to remove the battery since the battery will last a few years. Earl Hendrickson PE

I just bought one today at walmart and I stripped it too, and I was using the correct size screwdriver. Now I am not sure how I am going to get the battery compartment off without breaking it. I would never buy this again. I am wondering why they used a screw in the first place.

I came here looking for an answer to the same question, and A J's helped me get started. But, after looking at the battery compartment more closely, I learned that the trick is to CAREFULLY bend (push more than bend) the metal prongs opposite the plastic clip, and then press down on the edge of the battery nearest the plastic clip - the battery will tilt slightly sideways and you can lift it out.

Take the top and put it on the counter upside down. You will see a round raised area in the center with two opposing tabs. Pull up on one or both of the tabs to remove the large rotating part. You'll see the battery compartment under it.

The battery compartment is secured with screws. Seems to be very safe for small children. I use mine weekly and still love it!

I assume you refer to the remote control. In one of the sides of the remote you will find a hole that seems to be for a keychain ring. If you put put the remote horizontal and look at the side with the hole for the keychain, you will see a wider segment in the groove that separates the upper side of the lower side of the remote. Insert a screwdriver and rotate as if it were a screw that you want to unscrew. Both sides will separate and you will see the battery. After replacing the battery, just put one side on top of the other and press until you hear a click.Please, let me know if this is clear enough.Regrettably I can't send you a photo I assume you refer to the remote control.

Yes, the battery housing comes off the main housing without even a wrench. There is a self threading wing nut type of arrangement that lets the battery housing come off so that the main part is still attached to whatever you have it attached to.

It takes a large/wide, flat head screwdriver. Careful. Don't stab yourself. Insert into one side and go down 1/4" and pry up around the edges. There is a "rubber lip" towards the bottom that keeps everything intact but you must be careful not to go too deep. Keep prying up around the edges, the first time is the hardest. Once you get it out, the battery replacement is easy.

The batteries are in the front top and easy to change. The front top slides off and the battery compartment is located in the part that slides off. It has been a great tie rack. Easy to install and works great!

On the back side, at the bottom, you'll see two little philips head screws, I think you have to unscrew those and then just above those, impressed into the plastic backing, you see an arrowhead pointing upward, you push down and up on that and the back comes off revealing the place where the batteries go. I think this is it, its been so long since I did it, and I use the electrical plug attachment to keep mine running so I don't have to waste batteries. Good luck with that!

On either side of the body there are two buttons.Depress the buttons and separate the back portion of the body from the backs portion.I find it easier to push in one button and use yor thumbnail to partially separate the back then press the other button and finish removing the back cover.The batteries fit into the front portion.Hope this helps.

YES! The door comes off and tucks into a storage slot in the battery pack. It easily reattaches. Have had this grip for about 4months...works perfect...is very solid. Mark

Hello, twist and pull remove from wall. Pull out the sliding door. With small flat blade screwdriver pick or pry the batteries out. I see it looks like a tight fit. I hope this helps.

The battery compartment is right below the top shell. There is a groove at the back to pull up the top layer

You need to pinch opposite sides of the battery flap with one hand and then release the top of the flap with your other hand. If you look at the flap on the back of the battery, you can see the hinges on the bottom of the flap which will help you see which side to release.
