Hi!

Im working on a project to disassemble this crappy cheap bt speaker and mount it i side an old phone. But ive encountered a problem. Many parts are glued stuck. The battery for example. I dont want to use violence to remove it because it could be damage leading to a nuclear explosion. Any advise in how to proceed?

    If you have access to a heat gun, I’d give it a shot, especially because the battery needs to be removed too. My other suggestions are not the best for removing a battery, though you might be able to get a good angle to wedge the battery off without stretching the components in the battery.

    Consider draining the speaker battery first. I wouldn’t bother, but if you are really worried about breaking the thing it’s worth a shot.

    I’ve taken apart many consumer electronics in my day, and (anecdotally) batteries have not been an issue. I’d say that you are more likely to snap a wire off one of the components or something quite mundane.
