Nike+ Sportband Battery Replacement

Begin by removing the Nike+ Sport-band. This gives you access to the plastic housing so you can begin disassembly.

Finish the disassembly of your NikePlus Sportband by utilizing the metal spudger tool on the short edge to pry the external body pieces apart.

After the cover had been removed, use the metal spudger tool to remove the body of the device from the casing.

Use the metal tweezers to pry the screen casing from the body of the device.

The screen casing is fastened to the body of the device by four clips located in each corner of the casing. Make sure not to bend them.

Flip the body of the device over so that the screen is now on the bottom.

The display ribbon cable is soldered to the motherboard. We were able to peel up the ribbon cable with a pair of tweezers.

Flip the body of the device back over so that the screen is facing up.

Using the tweezers, gently lift the screen from body of the device.

Remove the four highlighted screws from the motherboard using the Philips screwdriver.

Use the metal tweezers to lift the motherboard out of the device.

Continue lifting the motherboard until the battery and its wires are visible. Tweezers can help lift the board enough to expose the battery area.

Gently lay the motherboard upside down exposing the underside of the motherboard.

The red and black battery wires may need to be desoldered from the board. Check out the How To Solder and Desolder Connections guide for some helpful tips on this.

Using the flat edge of a spudger separate the battery from the body of the band.

Then replace it with a new battery, which you can get on Amazon (3.7v Li-Pro small battery 50mah).
