battery replacement

New cell installation

Battery replacement is the process of removing a depleted or failing battery and installing a new one.

The term applies across scales—from swapping AA batteries in a remote control to replacing a car battery or the sealed battery in a smartphone.

The phone's battery replacement cost more than a new device.

Services offering battery replacement have grown as devices increasingly use non-removable batteries.
