great video thanks. I wasn't able to remove the battery with my bare fingers despite having nails and pushing it backwards as suggested in the video. At one point, I felt like my nails were separating from the the rest :( Eventually used a big flat screwdriver to push the battery backwards, which worked.
That's interesting. I made this video when one client had the battery cradle detach from the PCB, which is the one that I soldered back in this video. Given your experience, I think we can now appreciate why that happened to him. Thanks for giving us a head's up on this, and thanks to the original client who patiently waited for me to fix his unit. Although I have also had one faulty temperature controller, fortunately, I have not had any reports of the roughly 100 or so Pills I've shipped since then succumbing to this same problem.
The fist minute and forty five are the most relevant in terms of taking precautions to not damage your new RAPT Pill.
