    Thank you so much for making this video!!! I didn't have a golf tee or double-sided 3M tape, so I ended up hot-gluing a screw to my battery (I made sure to not get the hot glue on anything else). I waited for it to dry and I was able to pull it out!!! 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾

    This worked for me after trying and giving up over and over again for months! I used a 3m command poster strip, cut it in half and stacked it on itself so the “wall” side touched both the battery and the desk drawer knob I used to pull it off. Thank you so much!

    I just got a aftermarket battery stuck in my Fuji XT3, and I used this trick to get it out. THANK YOU SO MUCH for posting this! It saved my sanity.

    thanks for this! I used double sided tape with another camera battery, which covered the entire surface of the stuck, after market Amazon battery. Worked like a charm, really appreciate it

    Thank you for posting this! I almost tried with the tweezers idea but decided it could damage my camera. Found this video and it took me 2 minutes to fix!

    THANK YOU‼️ I experienced a nightmare when this happened tonight. Throughout most of a live show I tried to remove the battery with no success. Then I watched your video, got a small piece of double sided tape and lifted the lever. The battery was removed in 10 seconds!

    a6400 here! Not the same method, but inspired by you, I used a permanently glue and glued it on a screw waited until it’s dry and pull it out

    • @gadgetbeacon
      @gadgetbeacon  Місяць тому

      Glad it worked! Though, I’d caution anyone to just be careful using glue in case it runs over the edge of the battery into the camera’s compartment. I don’t really want any form of liquid in that area if I can help it.

    I used to give the camera a good beat, and the battery comes out a bit, and then i pull it out or used tweezers in a tough sotuation... i think I should try your method next time. Thank you.

    • @gadgetbeacon

      Definitely be careful using tweezers with these!

    Hi Gadget: I use my Dad's old 35 mm Nikkormatt FT2 SLR with the one flat disk battery accessed from the bottom; however, in the future you can always run a thin string or flat ribbon (the kind cake shops tie their boxes with or can be bought at any sewing store or sewing aisle of any Wal-Mart)underneath the battery and up its sides to overhang the edge of the battery compartment like the battery compartments of alarm clocks which come with a built in ribbon to snap the AA or AAA battery out. To change your battery, you simply pull the two overhangs to LIFT the battery out and repeat by underwrapping the new battery with the string or ribbon prior to insertion. ❤Diane, Vancouver, Canada.

    Happened to me just now, really useful vide of yours^^
    I didn't have any tape at home, however, I have a really strong magnet that came with my osmo mobile 4. I used the magnet to pry the battery out.

    • @gadgetbeacon
      @gadgetbeacon  7 місяців тому +1

      Glad it worked! I’d just say be careful using magnets around cameras in general in the future

    Is there specific 3m tape I should use? I see some for less than $10, and some for $40

    • @gadgetbeacon
      @gadgetbeacon  7 місяців тому

      Just make sure it’s a double sided tape! a.co/d/9YMtTMg this is what I used

  • @tomdayton3399
    @tomdayton3399 3 місяці тому

    Genius! Thank you for this excellent tip! I had it out in 5 minutes, and am so grateful I didn't also have to spend 5 or 6 hours on it? Mine was stuck in a trail cam with a CR123A stuck battery, but your technique worked flawlessly! ✅

    Didnt work AT ALL. my camera (Sony) is clutching onto the battery with its life force

    • @gadgetbeacon
      @gadgetbeacon  4 місяці тому +1

      :( sorry to hear that! It takes more force than you’d think. Is the lever to release the battery giving it enough clearance?

  • @HaleySavage-gc8vp
    @HaleySavage-gc8vp 4 місяці тому

    Super glue a piece of paper or something string to it, pull it out

    • @gadgetbeacon
      @gadgetbeacon  3 місяці тому

      Maybe, that could work but you have to be careful. If you get glue past the battery you could have issues. I personally don’t want anything liquid near the internals of any electronics.
