I just bought this yesterday and can't, for the life of me, figure out how to install the battery. Can anybody explain that?

The part that you hold in your hand slides off the head part. Kind of like sliding or pulling a knife out of its sheath. Then you can easily see where the battery fits.

Pull down on lower part of shaver near the name whale, it should slide off.

Easy. Slide the grey aluminum housing down, exposing the black main body of trimmer. Battery goes there.

You know when you push up to push the power on? Keep in pushing and the insides slide out.

Assuming you are still looking for an answer... Flip the remote over, and near the bottom you will see the back is marked with an exclamation point inside of a silver triangle. A this end of the remote, you will see a little clip. This is holding the drawer where the battery is installed. Push the clip towards the middle of the remote with your fingernail and then slide the drawer out. Install the battery with the side marked with a plus sign (+) towards the back of the remote. Slide the drawer back in until the clip locks it into place and you should be set. Good luck!

It can be tricky. You basically have to open it up (pushing on the gray button on the top - look at the back, it should say "open") and then sliding out the little battery slot. If you're facing the front of the machine, the battery slot is located on the left hand side, but you can't access it until you pop the thing open. It's also a replacement that's needed, there's no re-charging to be done. Good luck!

Go to youtube and look up the video on how to do it. You'll need to disassemble the blue parts off the old battery and reinstall it on the new one.

Its not easy, and not really clear in the instructions. I had to put the battery in with my thumb on the bottom of the battery and grip the whole housing of the alarm and push HARD. It snaps in. Make sure that you have the battery in with the positive (+) symbol down. I hope that helps, Sorry I did not see this sooner!

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...

Funny you should ask! I just got through changing the battery myself! You have to squeeze the two oval buttons on the side very hard and make sure the front and back face the right way. If you're very careful you should get one side button on slightly ahead of the other. Don't force it or it will break and you'll have to ducktape it back on!

Yeah, it's tricky in that you have to make sure you push the green button *horizontally* towards the battery, and it's kind of difficult to do completely, *before* you pull up on the battery handle to lift it out. Hope this helps.

Push the battery to the right. The left side will pop out. Then pull the battery up. Ta-da!

Before you do anything, make sure you align the battery up with the charger. If you look along the sides of the battery pack you will see to ridges or slots that align up with the protrusions inside the charger. This allows a proper alignment. You probably already did this, but give it another try. Also try it without the radio. Use just the battery. You don't need the radio to charge the battery. It may be easier for you to try the alignment that way. If all this fails, Purchase another charger. Go to 409shop.com, radioditty.com , or even amazon.com to search for the proper charger for your radio. Not to worry, there very cheap. Good luck!!!

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.

That is the only way to change battery is to get the screws out. I haven't had to change mine yet, but you need to get the cover off. Try to make sure you have the right screwdriver to fit so you don't strip the screws.

I had the same problem and had to return the battery. I went and purchased a whole new unit. Careful if you order a battery because if you have to return it, Amazon doesn't let you because it is a hazardous item. I went through a lot trying to return it to the vendor. The one I received was also broken. Good luck.

If I remember right, you had to open the battery door thingy and there was a piece of plastic that you needed to pull out. I could be wrong though. Otherwise maybe try pressing the reset button? Just an idea.

I am sorry, I had the same problem. I ended up throwing it away and ordering a new one! I did not see any way to open it and replace a battery.
