![]() Clean the exposed face of the battery with alcohol and let dry. You could use some of that foam, double-sided tape stuff to give the battery a pretty hard tug. If that didn't work, I'd try a stronger adhesive. You really don't want to hit any of that stuff with a screw or drill bit. It could create a bit of a mess that you'd be unable to clean up without disassembling the camera.īefore putting any screw into the battery, I'd want to be certain I understood the placement of the cells and internal wiring. I'd be leery of introducing any WD-40 into the camera. Luckily, you have detected movement of the battery, thus this is very unlikely. In both cases, usually the amount of force needed to extract the battery is not excessive, but in some cases the cells swell to such a degree that they press against the side of the battery cavity, making removal significantly more difficult. (due to placement of screw, and orientation of cells, 'shorting' the batteries is not really a concern) ![]() ![]() If the battery is 'wrapped', the wrapping may prevent you from 'hooking' anything (no accessible gap between cell and frame), but since the frame is plastic, it is fairly easy to take a small sharp plastic screw, drive it ~1/8" into the plastic frame (usually in the center), then use a pair of pliers (usually even needle nose are not required) to pull on the exposed end of the screw. the 2CR5 batteries are composed of 2 cells in a plastic frame, and if the cells are exposed within the frame, using the spudger is quite easy (it is thin metal, slightly curved and rounded to allow you to 'hook' the gap and pull). ![]() Though how easy it is will depend on the brand. I've used a metal spudger to achieve this successfully. ![]()
