ok thx for the tip- but it is so tight !
So you say there are no screws?
I mean, i tried what you said but it won’t come loose, only plastic starts deforming – that’s why I had to ask you… the plastic is so soft grrrr…
Thx I will try like what U said, hope it will work out

be patient opening the battery. Use a small flat head screw driver and slowly go around the case just opening it a little bit at a time. This can take several minutes to do well, and less than a minute to just destroy plastic.

Hmm, may I suggest …
Hmm, may I suggest if ANYONE is going to play with re-packing Li-Ion batt packs, they:
1) LEARN TO SOLDER PROPERLY. (Too much heat can turn a Li-Ion cell into a grenade) When soldering cells you need to do it fast & good. High blobs of solder means too little heat used. Solder not “flowing” means not clean or needs more flux.
2) Do not try & push the current from Li-Ion battery through self adhesive strips! You bought cells with SOLDER TABS on them…..USE THEM??!!

Sorry about the blurry text and lack of documentation of the process. I can post another video of a dell battery repack (which is pretty much the same thing). I have a very high quality version that i had trouble uploading to youtube.

That was LCD …
That was LCD Soundsystem with “Yeah (Crass Version)”, probably the best artist and hardest tune on this planet. YEAH.
sklarm, thanks for the vid, but the quality of yt videos made for some blurry text. Could you overlay some yt annotations instead? Maybe also add some note annotations on what you’re doing, too
It was a little bit hard to follow when you suddenly added the side cells, didn’t follow what went where. Thanks!
