This is the best video on the internet for trouble shooting and possibly fixing dead DJI Ronin M and Ronin MX batteries. Seeing that everyone who bought this product has had mysterious, failed batteries. I’m really appreciating the extra calming music in this video right now because I’m super stressed just discovering that all of my Ronin MX batteries have simultaneously died too and there are no replacements. Got my gimbal new in 2019 and less than 3 years later it is not supported by DJI. Similar thing happened with my DJI drone … will avoid buying DJI products again.
The best way to crack open the battery is to put in a vice, flat side up, and squeeze it repeatedly. After a sufficient number of cycles, of increasing and decreasing pressure, the bond between halves will break loose. After that I have no idea... Just replacing the cells won't work because it's a "smart" battery and the gimbal requires some kind of data from the battery to even function at all. Good luck with that! By the way, the battery "fix" in some of the videos out there, it won't work if you have bad cells. I dissected the batteries for mine, and they all had two out four cells bad in each, cells that could not be rejuvenated. I've seen videos in which the battery controller was reset, but the gimbal still wouldn't work! One can't help but wonder if dji will abandon yet another gimbal or drone, leaving users with no way to power them and turning the products into a useless pile of junk? Really flakey company.
@@mihaigsm2003 no most of the time the cells turn out to be fine. The TI chip that manages the battery flags a power failure when the battery depletes completely. DJI has done that do make sure cells will not get replaced. resetting the PF in the chip is sufficient to get the battery going again, most of the time. Moreover, the cells are not expensive at all.
Salut. Am 2 baterii de ronin M (arata ca cele pe care le ai defacut), am folosit Ronin M doar o data dupa care am lipsit din tara ani de zile. Acum amandoua cand incerc sa le incarc nici macar nu se aprinde becul vreun pic (oricare dintre ele). Le poti resuscita ? Care ar fi pretul pt. a face asta (pt fiecare in parte)?
The old Battery is not faulty but in hibernate modus! See the fix here! Dji does not know this fix! But disassembly of your battery was not necessary but very helpful to me because I want to upgrade the battery! So maybe we helped each other
@@bantertv9332 I am from Romania, u can send, but is possible to be cells broken , in this case can’t repair. From 10 battery I repair only two, also u can see on video, battery cells are broken.
@@LA-Creative nope,,, got rid of it bought a Zihyun, batteries replaceable, avoiding dji stuff like a plague, but then went out and spent £2k on a dji drone!!! Can’t get rid of them !!
@@daslolo its fuckin nuts. just bought one used today and all the batteries are fucked. crazy. I'm not an electrical wizard so idk what to even do but eat the loss and buy a zihyun crane or something

hi! Can you please help me with dissasembling Ronin Battery 1st gen? 3400mah. Thanks!
Hi, this is the most complete video about this issue. I have 4 batteries all dead: can we make an arrangement to let you repair them?
All most battery have cells broken. Need to change cells. Very expensive !
@@mihaigsm2003So you suggest to move on and buy new batteries, isn't it?

exista vreo posibilitate sa deconectezi celulele si sa folosesti alte baterii cu chipul de la bateria originala?
Da, dacă știi cum sa faci
that makes no sense because most of the time the cells are fine and the board - the TI chip that manages the battery - is blocking charging the cells.
Nice work. can you tell me the title of the background music?

See the fix here!

See fix where without opening?
Thanks for your comment, where can we see that fix, please?

the battery is not in hibernation, it is fully depleted after which the TI chip has raised the power failure flag.
Hi! Did you get this battery working again? If so how?! I need to fix some of these. Thanks for posting this!

It’s crazy how these batteries have randomly died on so many people and DJI does nothing to help. Did you find a fix?

This looks like a 4C LIPO.
Yes
