Battery replacement how does the flashlight open to replace the batteries

Hi,

please attempt to twist the top or the bottom of the flashlight off in order to open it and the batteries that you've mentioned. Otherwise, you can drop buy your local geeksquad/bestbuy to have a tech do the battery replacement for you.

Thank you.

Many flashlights will have a threaded cap opposite the lenses side that will unscrew providing access to the battery storage compartment.

This is from the Sylvania site

• Dimensions: 2.4" long x 1.7" diameter
• Light Source: 0.4 watt non-replaceable LED
• Internal Battery: Sealed Ni-MH 3.6V 110mAH rechargeable battery

This look like it is not replaceable - amazon sells them fairly cheaply

If the front lens assembly doesn't screw off then the black part of handle may slide or pop out

This is not intended to be a user replaceable battery, although I have found a replacement battery on-line.so that means that SOME people have replaced them. the cost is $9 +s&h. I don't think most camping outfitters would be able to help you with it, But it would be worth a try.

My suggestion would be (if you have one in your area) take it to a Batteries Plus store. They are quite good at replacing batteries that are NOT meant for user replacement.

Best of luck to you.

95-112B - Stanley Tripod Flashlight battery replacement is in the center chamber. Open the three legs, then put your fingers around the bottom part of the center chamber and turn counter-clock wise. Wella put in 3 new AA Batteries.

Without knowing the make and model of your flashlight, it's difficult to know whether you have a product with a replaceable battery. Providing that information would be very helpful.

In addition, you can try taking your light to a specialty batteries store--around here, there's a chain called "Batteries Plus." They have a large number of cross-reference books that identify all kinds of replacement batteries, and they may be able to help you directly in extracting your existing battery pack--or in telling you that it has been permanently sealed into your flashlight. Many spotlight-style rechargeable flashlights have replaceable batteries; conversely, smaller handheld rechargeable flashlights (the kind that look like they'd take 2 C or 2 D cells) are much less likely to have user-replaceable battery packs inside.

Good luck!

A possibility that the batteries have leaked a caused a galvanic corrosive issue, binding or fusing the end cap. See the manufactures instructions for removing and installing batteries.

You have to unscrew the end tailcap. Remember, unscrew it counter clockwise, and when replacing the batteries keep in mind the polarity.

The back, tail cap, should be unscrewed from the maglite to replace the batteries. It can be pretty hard to open as they are generally not opened very often and there's a rubber seal to keep it water-proof. You could try using a pliers or vice but be careful not to squeeze it out of shape.

There's also a possibility that if the batteries are in it a long time that they have leaked and the leaked chemicals have sealed it. If this is the case you may be able to get the maglite replaced depending on what brand of batteries were in it. Maglite have an agreement with the makers of Duracell, Ever-Ready and Ray-O-Vac to replace the Maglite if one of their batteries leak in it.
