SneakyJoe ENG #StopWarInUkraine's video: Replacing battery in Valve Index Controller disassembly and repair righttorepair

🚩 In this video I'm showing you how to disassemble and repair an Index controller with a dead battery. 🚩 Since Valve and Pimax refused to help me with repair or replacement, and since I just think it's wasteful to spend 270 euros to buy a new controller when you can get a new battery for 10 euros + delivery, I decided to make a guide for all folks who have been using Index Controller for longer than 2 years, and for whom the battery has died. 🚩 You need minimal skills in disassembly and soldering for this repair. Try to find a 3.8v battery, ideally with a thermistor (white wire) so your controller knows when the battery is fully charged. 🚩 This seller on Aliexpress sells the best compatible batteries, according to specs: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005004623412408.html 🚩 My thread on Reddit where I disassemble the original controller I repaired first: https://www.reddit.com/r/ValveIndex/comments/vz0s3a/unwrapping_index_controller_battery_for_potential/ Looks like it's a JST ACHF connector (thanks /u/irateorangutan ) 💲 Like what I'm doing?
