thanks, used video reference to cut a hole in the plastic below the slide cover and change battery without dissasembly
make sure to not touch any metal inside, lift the plastic and prry at it slowly with pliers
remove main battery and power of course

Do you have to remove the whole keyboard or is it possible to open it by unscrewing only the bottom cover?

[@SonnyIbibo]

@@vukbojovic7504 the location of the RTC battery requires getting to the main board.

[@vukbojovic7504]

Never mind. I just cut the plastic above the battery and taped it back. Much easier.@@SonnyIbibo
