    • Locate the ends of the speaker.

    • Put a plastic opening tool in-between the rubber end and the mesh.

    • Apply a upward force in order to pry open the end.

    • Apply this procedure to the other side as well.

    • Will take force.

    • Using metal tools may permanently mar your device.

    Pry all the way around with the tool as there are “clips” that hold the cap in place all around beneath the cap. Avoid trying to “pull the lid open” from the opening of a half opened lid.

    Stop! Before you proceed, notice the comments at the end of the guide. You don't have to take apart both sides or remove the mesh fabric. Remove just the bottom cap (with the aux/charge plug).

    Then carefully remove the glue securing the circuit board on the sides and gently pull the board out to reveal the battery under it.

    FWIW I had no luck opening these caps with the tools I bought on iFixit (plastic pry bar, metal Jimmy). I had a lot more luck using the flat edge of a butter knife! (it still took lots of work on my UE Megaboom 3)

    • Take the Jimmy and pry up the rubber strip that has the volume buttons on it.

    • You will hear clicks as it pries up, don't worry.

    • Remove all the rubber you pried off.

    • Use tweezers to lift end of plastic retainer on edge of mesh out of its channel.

    • Work the plastic retainer out of the channel all the way around the speaker.

    • Be gentle, it is easy to damage the fabric.

    • Repeat for other side.

    No need to remove fabric or remove both sides.

    • Pull on white strip to remove battery.

    This skipped the step of pulling out the circuit card on the battery charge/aux-in side. Pry up below the gasket next to the large capacitors on both sides.

There is a way to take it apart without all these steps and a complete tear down.

How to ensure it’s waterproof upon reassembly?

This is huge overkill. Only the bottom cap and circuit board need to be removed for a battery replacement.

coryjohnson011 - Replica

I agree. The battery is located on the bottom end only.

Jamin Hu -

^ the person who says that you only need to remove the one end-cap to replace the battery is correct. The process outlined in this article is more likely to damage all the fabric and other end-cap than just opening one end and gently prying it back until you can slide out the battery. FYI, the pull tab on my battery broke right off, and I had to pull it out with pliers.

I completed this repair yesterday using a battery with those specifications and it's working fine so far.

how long does a battery usually last?

Excelente aporte, gracias

I just completely destroyed the opposite endcap trying to get it off when apparently only one needed to come off. It’s probably worth editing the instructions to reflect that

YOU DONT NEED TO TAKE THE OTHER SIDE AND ENTIRE VOLUME PAD OFF. This makes the material look tampered and wavy after reinstalling. Just simply remove the side that has the charging port. You can replace the battery just fine from there. I don’t know why it even bothers instructing you to take apart both sides of the speaker.

You do not need to take the outer cloth layer off to get to the battery.

How to replace a windshield wiper… first remove all the tires to lower the car 6 inches.

Todd Scott - Replica

This guide for battery replacement is totally wrong and misleading. You only need to remove the cap where the UE plugs in. Removal of the other cap will undoubtably damage the fabric and cap as it is glued down at the non battery end. There are other more informative sources on youtube giving complete step by step instructions on replacing the battery.

There are a couple of clarifications that would help this guide - besides what was mentioned before around only needing to get the bottom cap off in order to have access to what is needed for a battery replacement. 1) include pictures of how to remove the bottom circuit board and to clarify that it should be extracted as level as possible to prevent damaging the speaker connector. 2) for the section above that talks about removing the rubber sidestrip that covers the volume buttons, emphasize that you want to dig your jimmy into the grove of the bracket - not simply behind the rubber - as you will simply remove the rubber from the bracket. More pictures would be useful here too - like show the remove end caps + rubber side with the bracket attached (ie inside view)

Can the battery for a Megablast be changed?

Jose Trujillo - Replica

Getting the end cap off was FUN! So much force required but once seeing how it is attached you are actually pretty unlikely to break anything so just gotta muscle through. I ended up using a flat piece of metal that i could grip from both sides (a big metal cooking utensil/spoon). On the side of the end cap opposite to the rubber that runs down the length of the speaker, the flat metal can wedge in between the end cap and the mesh with the help of a spudger I poked in there just to open things up a little. With the flat piece of metal in, my friend held the speaker standing up, with the other end cap flat on the floor. I pulled the metal upwards and slightly towards the rubber strip side. The whole action was like opening a ring pull can. A big pop and it was open and everything inside was accessible for the battery fix.

Got my new battery now. Speaker is working great again.

Benjamin Richardson - Replica

Help I did this and now my megabooom won't charge or even turn on anymore even if I put in the old battery back in. Did I brick it?

msa173 - Replica

This is a sh1t guide. Read all the comments. And also: the D-ring thread does not in any way connect the end-cap of the speaker to the body of the speaker. Removing the D-ring is pointless. Better off using the D-ring to apply force to the end-cap to help remove it from the body of the speaker.

You should sort this out IFixit!

Concur - just replaced my battery in about 10 mins following a YouTube video. No need to pull the whole thing apart, so much easier getting in through the bottom. After all, the power source is always near the power input.

Rebecca Lupton - Replica

Nobody answered yet this question.

If you open the bottom part, does it affect the waterproofing of the device?

Arsène Brosseau-Thiffault - Replica

You defiantly can stop at the remove end cap stage... what I came here for is reassembly. After replacing battery I"m getting a rattle from the speaker housing. I'm contemplating using caulking to seal it back up and absorb the rattle but was hoping to find a better option. If anyone knows where to get that supper sticky foam tape I'm all ears.

Only thought to look at the comments after denting my top plastic pretty badly. Please fix this guide!
