Review of Shaver Battery Pack fits most Norelco models & others

I would definitely discourage the average person from attempting a battery pack change at all.If you have a mechanical knack, some electronics experience and access to a tiny soldering pencil (3/32" 700 or 800 degree tip), it is doable.On my Norelco 6885XL, my steps were: 1) Let the shaver run to discharge the old battery pack.2) Remove 2 screws holding the two halves together and take the two halves apart.3) Use needle-nosed pliers to slightly bend each side of the spring clips inward, then up.4) After you get the two spring clips off, use electronics side cutters to cut the leads of the bad battery pack about 3/16" above the plastic cradle and remove the bad battery pack.Do not attempt to de-solder the bad battery pack's leads from the printed circuit board.That takes a lot of expertise and special equipment and if you don't know what you're doing, you'll ruin the PC board.5) Bend the leads of the new battery pack into a `V' shape so that when the new battery pack is in the cradle, the new leads are against the old leads in the PC board.6) Solder the new leads to the old leads, re-install the spring clips, put the two halves of the shaver back together, and charge the new battery pack.
