Replacing the TomTom Go 720's battery is actually not all that hard as this video demonstrates:
The company that produced the video sells a kit which includes the battery and tools necessary to do this yourself if you'd like. See: http://www.newpower99.com/ProductDetails.asp?ProductCode=TOMTOM+GO+720&Show=ExtInfo I swapped the battery of a friend's dying GPS using the aforementioned kit and all went well. His Go 720 is back up and running smoothly.
Hope this Helps,
aaron

Question i have to ask is 1- how much do you kno9w about electronics and 2- how brave are you. The following WILL void your warranty if you still have one.
READ ALL OF THIS BEFORE YOU EVEN START
1- Based on a poor picture of the unit that i found it looks like two screws in the back of the unit need to come out, might be four screws in there but pic only shows two.
2- With your small precision flat screwdriver push under the seam in the plastic and gently pry the two halves of the case apart, be careful as these units have snap taps under the plastic that you can't see till you get it apart.
3- DO NOT PULL ON THE TWO HALVES OF THE CASE YET. Look under the back of the case since the picture shows what looks like a button or a speaker in the back, this means wires running to something on the back half of the case, Look and see what it is and see if you can find the connectors to these things, should be small white connectors that you will have to GENTLY pull out of the connection bed.
4- Now that you have done that you should see something that looks like a cell phone battery, that's your prize, again look for the connector and gently remove from the connection.
5- replace with new battery and reverse order to install and reassemble your gps device. Hope this helps

The flat cable socket has a locking mechanism - it's a flat piece of plastic above the cable. It's a bit hard to explain, but you need yo pull it gently outwards, then insert the cable in the socket, pushing nicely all the way in, and then push this plastic part in also, in the same direction as the cable, until it "clicks" in place.
