Hover-1 Charger Battery Replacement

Introduction

Go to step 1 ↓

If your Hover-1 Charger (H1-COL) is having problems powering on or retaining a charge, there may be an issue with its battery. Before you begin disassembling your hoverboard, check out our troubleshooting pages that address powering on and problems with charging. Make sure to examine your hoverboard’s charger as well. If the problem persists, this guide will help you replace your hoverboard’s battery.

The battery is held in place with adhesive; some force is required to remove it. Make sure to wear an anti-static wrist strap to protect the electronics against buildup of static electricity. Some screw housings are fragile; they may fall apart when the screw is removed.
