Einleitung

This guide will demonstrate how to remove the malfunctioning battery from the Sony SRS-X5 Bluetooth speaker.

  1. MUtIhPPaCxEBOXHR

    • To gain access to the 6 bottom screws remove the following. Remove the adhered 4 corner foam pads on the bottom of the speaker using the blue plastic opening tool to reveal the screws underneath. Remove the adhered 2 center plastic squares.

    • Make sure the speaker is unplugged and powered down before doing any work on the device.

    Be consistent with vocabulary. For example, on the first step you used "foam pieces" and "pads" to identify the same thing and it may be confusing for some users.

where can you get a replacement battery

I have searched far and wide and cannot find a source for a replacement battery. Has anyone had any luck finding a replacement battery?

Google ‘srs-x5 replacement battery’. That’s what I did, and found two different places in the US. I just ordered this one for $28, free shipping:

https://www.smavtronics.com/2600mah-lis2...

They have a higher capacity (3400mAh) for $35 , but I opted for the cheaper one since it was significantly higher capacity than the very adequate original (1800mAh). There also seems to be several retailers in other parts of the world. Thanks to Carrie for posting this, I was just about to replace the whole darn speaker, which still sounds as good as new!

My speaker would not power on at all (no lights). Reset button and pwr/- did not help. Seemed odd that the battery was dead as I hardly ever used it on battery. after unplugging everything, then plugging it back in with the battery unplugged, it came on. So perhaps the electronics (capacitor?) needed a draining reset to clear some strange state? …and that was not happening as long as a charged battery was plugged in. I had actually unscrewed/unplugged the speakers before realizing it was working again. Put it all back together and it works fine.
