andrew_overtoom Posted April 24, 2004 Share Posted April 24, 2004 Hello all, I have a dead Metz Nicad pack for a 45 CL-4 that I would like to rebuild and was wondering if anyone knows how to open up the plastic battery carriage the Nicads sit in? I know it is possible -- I just don't know how! :^) Thanks for any tips. --Andrew Overtoom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
olivier_de_lame Posted April 25, 2004 Share Posted April 25, 2004 Hi, I have done it once. Notice I am not responsible for the consequences of course. I removed the back plastic plate of the NiCa carefully. Then I had to remove two screws and un-solder the connections. From then the rest is pretty straigtforward. Notice I replaced the battery of 50mAh with much higher capacity without problem. Regards, (and take care) Olivier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andrew_overtoom Posted April 25, 2004 Author Share Posted April 25, 2004 Hi Thanks for the info. You wrote: "I removed the back plastic plate of the NiCa carefully." Can you elaborate? Is it the top plate that comes off, or...? Thanks, Andrew Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
olivier_de_lame Posted April 26, 2004 Share Posted April 26, 2004 Hi, This is the plate where the contacts are: the part that goes inside the handle of the flash. I remember it was very easy to dismantle it; if I remember well it is simply clipped and with a screwdrawer you can remove it carefully.
