    How to check

    I would like to replace battery cells in a battery module of Lenovo Yoga Tab2 10.1 .( It is a tablet).
    Here is a video how to do that.

    But not sure if it is co easy.
    How can I find out if it is necessary to reset any chip on PCB in the battery pack? ( there are only 3 battery).

    no need to reset, but solder wire to battery is not easy and can damage battery

      Thanks for the reply. But how can you be so sure that NO reset is needed?

          Do you mean you have a practical experience with that Lenovo Tablet?
          Can you recomend where to buy the cells? I heard eBay is not good because of fakes( quality)

            Years ago I tryed to replace battery pack and was indispensable reset or reprogramm chip inside pack with philips protocol and an external hardware, I read that with this type of lenovo no reprogramm is needed, it's a common solution for other brands or it's an exception ?

              when u have totally killed battery, than u have GREAT chance that needs reset because that battery must know to NOT CHARGE/WORK. if your battery work just a little, u have big chance that after replace of cells it works ok

              but why doing this kind of work when complete battery cost 25e?
              i better buy complete battery and if u really want than replace cells on removed battery

                jasko_jacker: I have not tried yet to relace the battery, so not sure if it is an exception.
                But what do you mean byI read that with this type of lenovo no reprogramm is needed. Did you have a similar Lenovo?

                  How can I charge that battery pack?
                  by razenxd
                  Hello,
                  it's not a laptop/desktop related question but I figured that someone here will have the right knowledge.
                  At work we use a few Aldebaran(now Softbank/United Robotics group) Nao Robots which they use some custom 6S li-on battery packs.
                  Nao robots tends to draw from the battery even if they are shut down, and the BMS tends to be a little aggresive, if the pack stays on a turned off robot for 3 months it's gonna lock and will refuse to charge.

                  Now, I have noticed a few things.
                  The "dead" battery, while connected to charger and NOT Charging will...

                  Milwaukee M18 HD12.0 (12 amp hour battery pack) unbalanced failure charger refusing
                  by sam_sam_sam
                  I have two Milwaukee 12 amp hours battery packs that have an issue with battery cells very unbalanced these are probably over 4 years old and been heavily used in the past but now get occasionally used heavily and when I went to use the grinder tool the battery lost battery battery power very quickly so I decided to open it up and found some battery cells voltage from 3.6 to 4.1 no wonder the battery charger was not fully charging them 3 out of 4 LEDs were on meaning that it was only 75% charged

                  So I have put them on the battery testing machine to drain each battery cell down to...

                  Dell E6400 PT434 type Battery Charging Stuck at 1%. Battery Pinouts?
                  by Bowline
                  My question pertains to understanding the control circuity inside a Dell PT434 type battery used in Dell E6400, E6410 and other Dell notebooks?

                  Does anyone have a circuit diagram for the inside of a Dell PT434 battery and/or a description of how the control lines work to control this battery?

                  My reason for asking is I have a battery which I cannot get to charge beyond 1% in a Dell E6410 or E6400.
                  The LED bar graph charge indicator on the battery shows one LED lighted when the info button is pressed.
                  I have tried multiple different Dell power adapters. My Dell...

                  by sam_sam_sam
                  I have bought this Zener Diode for this project what size and wattage resistor value do I need to use to get near 50 watt output
                  I bought this from an eBay seller but unfortunately they only had one

                  I bought three from Vetco Electronics these are Sylvania ECG5185A 9.1@10w A to Stud what size and watt resistor do I need to use to get near 10 watt output
                  I bought three of from them to also make battery packs with this output power limit in mind

                  I want to use this battery pack and turn it into a 9.1 output battery pack output to eliminate using 9 volt battery...

                  I have had this battery backup for at 2 to 4 years now and the battery when bad and this is weird battery size it is the same length as a 12 volt @ 7 amp hour battery however the depth of is not the same as a 12 volt @ 5.5 amp hour battery

                  I have several battery packs that are A123 batteries cell so I bought a lipo4 BMS balancing protection board for these batteries and I have a configuration that is 4S 3P these battery packs were 3S 2P so I reconfigured them but left the tabbing on one side of the battery row of battery cells and re-tabbed the other side to the configuration that...
