remote battery easy to replace?

I have not had to replace the batteries yet. There are two very small screws. I believe one would need an eyeglass kit or a tiny Phillips to do the work.

yes the remote battery is easy to install, its a watch type (circle) battery. just remove the back cover and replace as you would do with any other battery.

Hi - No - the battery is replaceable and is under the unit or at the base of the unit.

I have had the unit installed about a year and have not had to replace the battery although I might do that just for maintenance. I also have a garage door opener so I had not thought about the stranded piece. I purchased the Chamberlain opener in addition to the keypad which also programmed easily. I cannot answer the reprogramming questions although I suspect you would not have to reprogram it. I will be interested to see if anyone else responds.

Hi, no it is not easy to replace battery but you can replace battery,the instructions are in the batterypack. The fact that the powerpack will last 5-7 years the powerpack will be able to be replaced with better batteries.

I haven't owned this remote for awhile (I have a new camera), but I think if you look at the battery, it's a large button type and will have a numberon it. I believe if you take the battery to a place like Walmart or Target you can easily get a replacement for it at the jewelry counter or in the electronics section. If that fails, try a battery store like Interstate Batteries or Batteries+.

Yes. On the back of the remote you'll see an indention. With the indention closest to you, move the small tab, on the left, to the right and pull the battery door towards you. You'll see a button battery with a number on it. Replace with a new one of the same number. Be sure to install it with the number facing up, the same way the depleted battery was oriented.

The remote uses an A23 12V battery. Fairly easy to find and inexpensive; usually about $3 for a 2 pack.

You can replace the battery yourself. C Crane has a pdf guide at their website. It took me 5 minutes to do it myself.

The remote does have a battery in it. It's not a standard size, but I would try changing that.

I have owned two of these units and I could never figure out how to replace the battery. It may be possible, if you are more technical than me. I found that the power cords go out, but you can buy very inexpensive new ones on Amazon.

Very easy, just two wires to unclip on existing battery and reclip on same terminals on new battery and replace in box.

I'm not sure, but there might be a small piece of plastic over the battery in the remote that needs to be removed. It would help to keep the battery from discharging prior to use.

The battery is in the bottom of the remote. Pull off cover and push battery in and up it should slide out. If your battery is swollen, a common problem, use duct tape. Attach the duct tape to battery and pull. You will need to get as much duct tape on the swollen battery as possible.
