what are the battery spec. that are used , for the replacement battery?

i agree with Michael above , the “fix” here is pretty useless without even the physical dimensions of the battery , or removing the tape obscuring the numbers on the existing battery, so we might have some hope of referencing one before tearing apart a device and having it sit while a replacement battery is coming ,,,, remember some of us live in very remote areas where it takes quite a while to get parts

Also, in step 6, if you look closely at the picture you will see that the author has all but ruined the device by prying from the wrong side, and has pulled the board connector off the board. Pry GENTLY from the front where it connects to the other board so the connector disconnects instead of prying it off the board and having to resolder it.
