How do you put the battery pack in the metal case? Is there a special screw drivwe in a triangle shape to do this? If so what do I order?

You have to take off the edge brush then take out the four screws in the bottom that hold the plastic base onto the unit. Once you remove the bottom, the battery is right there and easily accessible. When swapped out just put it back together and give it a good charge before you use it.

The battery pack fits right back in to the vacuum cleaner compartment without any tools. It should just pop back in. I think the black straps on the sides go down but I will look at my vacuum when I get back from traveling next week and write you how to do it.

There is a panel on the back that, most likely is for the battery pack, which is a Li-Polymer battery they describe as "built in". You will probably have to contact OREI (orei.com) to find out about replacements. A quick search did not find any third-party products available.

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!

There are 2 battery compartments on the underside of Pete. they both have a tab, AND a small screw to secure them.. you will need a very small phillips screw driver to get the screw out. Hope this is helpful.

I keep the battery in the charger indoors. That only leaves the gun itself, so I ditched the case. I wouldn't keep extra tubes in the case anyway, for fear of getting grease all over the place! It's a great unit BTW.

Yes its the case plus emergency battery. I believe its the conventional lithium battery, if thats what u r asking. U cant remove the battery inside because it's designed this way. It could've been a good accessory if it had not had those problems (my review). I hope i was helpful.

***UPDATE*** According to Joel Koury, the battery is glued to the casing, hence not replaceable. Thanks for the update.--------------------------I would say YES. It's not like Monster would make a proprietary battery. It probably uses a standard 18650 lithium battery or something that is very similar and available to purchase from battery vendors. From the looks of it, there are two circular rubber disks (not the four rubber feet) that cover the screw holes on the bottom of the unit. Remove those rubber disks and unscrew the base. That should give you access to the insides including the battery. ***UPDATE*** According to Joel Koury, the battery is glued to the casing, hence not replaceable.

On either side there is a very small indentation underneath the red plastic. You can put a screwdriver or something in there and gently push the red plastic piece off the black backing and then install the battery. Then snap the red plastic back on the black backing. Hope this helps.

Okay, it's a little tricky and hard to see if you look at the black rectangular part of the device where the LCD screen is. You will see on one side a very small little tap sticking out right against the metal. Push that in and a tray will pop out on the opposite side. Insert the battery with the flat side of the battery facing the metal ruler part. Hope that helps!

I have only been able to insert the batteries one way. The plastic shapes on the inside are designed so that the bulge on the positive side of the battery fits just overtop of a mold, while the smooth side is tight against the edge of the container. If this is reversed, the positive side does not fit in, and the flat side juts over the mold so that the cover cannot close. I would personally recommend keeping only your charged batteries in the case, and using a rubber band or something to bundle your discharged ones until they are replenished. Or you could buy more cases and label them. That would look much better actually.

You will need to take a dremel and slightly modify the battery pack. There are support molds on the pack that need to be ground off so that the pack will fit the radio. It is an easy mod just have to look at the radio and the battery together to see what needs to be done.

I have been using batteries but I see an opening in the back which may be for a usb cable. I didn't have one it fit.

This from their website:"Question How do I change the batteries?AnswerThe manual shows you how to do this. Unscrew 4 screws at the corners (below the silicon covers), unplug the battery pack and insert new one. We are working on creating a neat battery holder so you don´t need to find a sealed battery pack.Question What type of batteries do I need?AnswerType : NiMh - rechargeableSize : 3 x AA sealed "

you can fix the battery yourself. if you have about 10 mins and a soldering iron. 1.use a small razor knife, work around battery casing cutting through the glue. corners are the hardest part. dont cut all the way through. be careful not to cut your pinkie and use care when trying to open casing. Just go slow and dont force anything. you need the old casing!!!!after opening clean off ledges on casing. the batteries have a part number on them. go on line and buy a couple. under $3 apiece. use solding iron to remove and install new one/ones. note how they are wired up and install same way,,, put back together and use just a dab of crazy glue. peace you can fix the battery yourself. if you have about 10 mins and a soldering iron. 1.use a small razor knife, work around battery casing cutting through the glue. corners are the hardest part. dont cut all the way through. be careful not to cut your pinkie and use care when trying to open casing.

It is very easy: Undo the little screw located at the back of the case, open it, and carefully remove all the components (one by one) from inside. Keep an eye on the original position of these components so you can put them back in the new one. I would recommend to replace the battery as well. Once you finished installing the old components into the new case, just tight up the little screw and that's it!... It is ready to go.

There is a panel on the cube that slides off to expose the battery hole. I cannot say exactly where as of the three that I purchased, none last more than a month and that was a while ago. Sorry.
