1. What are those two unlabeled buttons of the front for? 2. How easy is it to change battery?

2. It's easy to take the battery out and replace it, but there is no stop, so the battery can fall out when the entire battery holder comes out (if you're not careful). This happened to me and the battery fell on the floor. Now I don't see in what orientation the battery should be when a new one is put in (positive up or down).

There is a battery holder that flips out of the upper right hand side. The users manual tells you how to do it. If you don't have one look it up on line.

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

It is simple to replace the battery. You have to unscrew the battery cover, take the old battery out, replace the battery with the same type battery and then replace the battery cover.

I couldn't be easier to remove and replace the battery. Taking the back off is the most complicated part, so if you already how to do that...no problem.

We haven't had to do that yet so I don't know. I purchased this for my son and he absolutely loves it and uses it all the time. He is now in Alaska so I can ask him how to change the battery - but I don't have an answer right now. Sorry

Sorry that I cannot be more help. I like the unit, but I do not know if the battery can be changed.

I have yet to mess with it, but I believe the battery is removable. In the battery settings there is a monitor to see how the battery is working along with a link to buy a replacement one if/when necessary.

There are some guides online to tell you how to replace the battery. It involved de-soldering and soldering, so really only do-able for advanced DIYers. I tried and failed (but learned a lot about soldering on the way, so the $15 I invested was not completely wasted). Of course doing so will also void any warranty, so it's really only something that you will want to attempt if you have nothing to lose.

yes the battery can be replaced, and it is hard to open it up. I had to ask my husband how to do it.

You can get to the batteries to change them. The back piece sticks- the front piece which houses the batteries is removable and can easily be put back.

Actually there is a way to replace batteries, to open unit locate 2 short screws at the "cork" end. Taking those out will allow you to remove brushed metal end. Then on the side is 4 spots of rubber which cover 4 longer screws. Now be careful you don't dump out contents but now the unit halves open up. You will see a battery pack that is connected to a printed circuit board. Either unsolder off the circuit board OR snip and strip the wires and attach new battery which if you search on Google the printed specification of the battery.. Simple

This was not to easy .. As you are looking at display , turn 180 so you are looking at the back.. Squeeze the sides and pull.. Mine was very, very tight... Once that slides out you can see and change the battery...

Yes, the battery is replaceable. The front cover is removable and then the battery slides out.

It's an internal battery. Doesn't seem like it's one that you can swap out. I have had no issue with the battery and it seems to have a decent life.
