    • Make sure that the OontZ Angle 3 is powered off before starting the disassembly.

    • Use the plastic opening tool to remove the rubber caps from each end of the speaker.

    Where do I buy the OontZ Angle 3 Motherboard?

    • Use the plastic opening tool on one of the corners to separate the bottom piece from the speaker, and then remove the piece.

    I bought this 6 months ago, it works pluged into power source, but once unpluged will not work. Even being left on charger over night.

    Also i pluged it in the red light is on but glows dim then bright. Is this normal?

    I bought it off Amazon brand new

    I cannot believe I am unable to find one video to show how to properly open up the speaker to fix the female port.

    I WAS VERY HAPPY with my speakers untill the ports malfunctioned a year after purchased. No warranty and NO illustrations ABOUT opening the housing without damages using PLASTIC TOOLS AS RECOMMENDED .

    So now I have great speakers that are now disposable since I cannot open the %#*@ housing.

    Great product until it is charged ONE too many times.

    • Begin by removing the bottom piece, revealing the inner compartment with the speaker cables and battery.

    • Remove two (2) 11.7mm Phillips #0 screws from each side of the speaker plate.

    • Locate the soldering points for the battery on the motherboard face of the speaker.

    • Use a soldering iron to carefully disconnect the battery from the motherboard.

    • Learn more about soldering here.

    • Remove the battery from the inside compartment for replacement.

    • Be careful when soldering the new battery into the correct position on the motherboard, as a bad connection can cause the battery to overheat or catch on fire.

    Don’t break the solder - cut the wires by the old battery and connect wires from the new battery to the wires still connected to the motherboard.

    just did exactly this. Make sure to reuse the protected circuitry off the previous battery or use a protected battery.

What is the kind of battery used? Thanks!

Rodrigo Lopez -

Hi Rodrigo, the Oontz Angle 3 uses a rechargeable 2200mAh lithium-ion battery. Happy Fixing!

Kelsea Weber -

can i upgrade it to 4300mah?

klien klaus -

the one that I have has a "circuit board" attached to the battery. Is this what controls the recharging? If so, where do you get the battery with these?

Rob -

Hi Rob,use soldering iron disconnect the circuit board which come with old battery you going to replace, and soldering iron the disconnected circuit board back onto your new battery. The so called circuit board is to protect the battery from over discharge or over charge. Hope this help.

2200mAh lithium-ion battery...... is it the 3.7?

thezestyitalian1 -

Do you know the watt hour rating for this battery?

Kristen -

If you don't know the watt hour rating, can you tell me whether this battery is 2200 mAh and 3.7v?

Kristen -

One can also replace the battery with what looks like a 18650 lithium-ion sized battery; they range in size from a minimum from 2,200mah to 3,400mah; so technically one could also upgrade the lithium-ion sized battery up to the maximum 3,400mah size and thus upgrade oneself from 10 hours continuous play to 15 hours of continuous when one uses the 3,400mah sized lithium-ion battery instead of the 2,200mah lithium-ion battery.

Is it going to fit another battery (2 in parallel) to increase capacity?

ziziTop top -

Mine works as long as its pluged in to an out let. I unplug it even after charging all night and still no charge and wont work. I have had this maybe 3 months i bought it off of amazon brand new. I love the sound it put out and the loud volume. But the battery im very disapointed if that is the issue. I also noticed that as it is pluged in the light goes bright to dim in a repeated pattern is that normal?

Can I use 18650?

Alvin Jan Untalan -

Can you tell me,where i can buy a battery?

Novita Wulansari -

Love the sound on my Angle 3 plus but now not able to take a charge. Purchased it in april of 2017 and have only had to charge 1 x that is how little I have used it. Now will not charge. The battery itself is quite expensive considering I only purchased the speaker for 25.00 new. And then to have to solder some pieces when replacing the battery - is expensive considering the original cost is just not cost effective. Wish the batteries lasted long. Why didnt they just build the unit with a 3,400mah size battery. disappointed

Mines just shows a white light when plugged up I’m not sure what the problem could be! When unplugged it does nothing at all

Recently replaced the battery in my OontZ Angle 3...you can use up to a 4400 mAh battery....with 3.7v. Can find all kinds of battery variations on Amazon. Follow the above directions....it's an easy fix and you DON'T need to solder your connections...cut plenty of wire & twist it up & use shrink tube over the connection...then charge it fully before using. Works like new and runs many many many hours!

I used this battery because it was cheap: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0BJVRZGML?psc...
