+[title] Accessing the Battery
+[* black] At this point the core of the bud is composed of the motherboard, a big battery, and a plastic cup that probably helps with the physiscs of the sound but (being glued) will never go back quite correctly in place.
+[* black] Prying the core we finally observe something that is not glued. The battery is a Lithium Polymer 1054 soldered in place (of course). Assuming that somehow you managed to get to this point without destroying everything, desoldering the old battery and re-soldering a new one should be quite feasible.
+[* black] It looks to me that it would be safer and faster to operate directly on the motherboard to replace the battery.
+[* black] Moving back to the stem. It is completely glued. The only way i can conceive to get to that doughterboard is to slice through the entire stem, which would not be really economically feasible.
+[* black] In conclusion these earbuds are completely at "Apple Levels" of unserviceability and irrepareability so, if I can dare to give a score, they would score a 1/10 iFixit repairability score.
+[* black] They are not scoring zero because if the shell wasn't so stupidly build several components could be replaced.
+[* black] I dare to say that if somehow they did not have glue, and if the daughterboard was accessible, they could score a lot higher (maybe 6 or 7), because at that point you could conceive to replace the speaker, the battery, the motherboard, the plastic cup, the daughter board, and the shell with minimal additional equipment.
