When you do call, do ask is there a way to open the case when the battery dies so we can replace ourselves. Thx


I too was curious if that could be done. When I asked last year, this is the response I got: "Very difficult and very time consuming. But it can be done." Here is a picture of the underside. You can see a seam near the outer edge,,, that's where I would probably began the surgery if I needed to get inside the case.


I've done this - it's not that bad. Just cut along the edge/seam and make sure you leave enough to accept a screw to hold a new plexi cover (to keep the new battery in the case). The hardest part is getting the replacement cable the right length so it can be tightened to the new battery terminal and still fit within the case. The replacement battery was a PC925.
