It "HAD" 90% of it's capacity that was the last reported by BMS before lock. Lithium chemistry is tricky. 3.55V or little lower is actually good for storage but that also depends on temperature which contributes to cell's aging. Lithium ions loses less when near 0% SOC but still you will lose few percents of it's capacity. This case is unique, most batteries I have disassembled in that state had at least one cell completely dead. In newer laptops there are "pillow" cells and 100% of services I have done were for swollen, puffed cells. Sorry, magic resetter can't fix that. I don't hate the video or the tool but 329 and 229 dollars for 12m license, jesus. Even if I had serviced every single battery in the shop that tool wouldn't pay it self off when comparing to some manufacturers that are making replacements on korean cells(samsung/lg) or japaneese panasonic which are around 40-80 dollars let's say per battery. Even if I could reset all my test batteries if they failed it still wouldn't justify buying the tool. The trick to this tool is that the creator somehow got knowledge of unique passwords for each of families of the chips. Without them tool would be uselless. You have password for chip, you don't need this tool. Wiring and establishing SMBus connection can be done ,other side of the coin is that you need to know commands for certain family of chips you're working on. I still hate battery industry like I hated it before. What battery needs in my opinion is soft lock when something happens and by that I mean there is fault and battery is shut down until cutting off power to the chip, fixing the battery and then chip starts with default values previously programmed and calibrates itself to the battery by using. But no, let's lock the battery because screw you and lock chip with password.
You are my HERO, I doff my hat sir 👍
yep agree with you, not affordable or viable, i hate subscriptions..unlock UN scrupulous battery oem tactics then gotta pay yearly to some other company Iic fees to be able to do it, wtf..tool is brilliant don't get me wrong but NAHHH.
furthermore, there are batteries that not only lock basically per software, but include a smd-device that can be triggered electrically and cause chemical corrosion internally representing a chemical triggerable fuse. you would have to bridge or replace that device and unlock the chip. i don't know if that is used in the industry anymore but i came across such a battery pack.
The device price is paid once and you have lifetime access to the most advanced Laptop Battery Analyzer on the market. The Chip Reset Option is optionable and you can buy it when you want if you want. For 229$ you can repair hundreds or thousands of the batteries in a year, it is the price of 6-7 batteries. More, NLBA1 Software works with EV2400 clone which is only 25$ on Aliexpress, so for unsealing and resetting the chips it costs only 25$ (EV2400 adapter) + 229$ for 12 months. More, if you repair less batteries in the last year you can get 50% OFF for the next year. Is this worse than throwing away good batteries ?
@@stigonutube You don't need to pay yearly, you pay only if you need and when you need. More, if there are not many repairs in the previous year, you can get 50% OFF for another year. As I said above, the software works with EV2400 too, which costs only 25$ on Aliexpress. For unsealing and resetting the battery chips it is really cheap: 25$ EV2400 clone + 229$ License, next year you can get big discount if you reset not too many chips.
Just want to give my opinion on this tool as a lot of people are criticizing it ! I have been working on laptop batteries for approx 15 years and wish i had this equipment back then.This really simplifies the whole process and saves a lot of time,The software developer really deserves a mention as it is so easy to use.People within the industry do realize the value of this tool...like Sorin and have no hesitation paying for it.Remember we all need to encourage the small companies that spend a lot of time and resources to make life easier for us.The right to repair !
sadly, price is insane. 329 usd + 229 usd for 12 months license? why not 500-600 for device + lifetime license.
Add another 129usd for dji batteries lol
Yeah I checked as well and the pricing is expensive.
They're target buyers are repair shops.
@@randomkitty2555 i have repair shop, i just can't justify the price. Most of batteries that come here are worn out but still work even for a minute or two.
@@lordmmx1303 same have large repair shop business n can't justify those $$ with its limited compatibility, add power tools n I'd make fortune!
Considering that many batteries will actually be bad, and the time involved in the analysis/reset process, you would have to reset hundreds of batteries before that gizmo pays for itself. Small-timers like me will have to wait for the Chinese to come out with a cheap copy. And with that pricing, the developer is practically begging them to do it.
I have been using this device for 2 years and I have repaired many batteries. I have made a profession for myself as a battery repair. It is a professional device that you will not regret.
is there any video tutorial that guide how to use it from A-Z
Where can I buy this tool
@bigfishtech3000 700$ for one year and 300$ for every year renewal
Hello
Can it repair locked makita battery bms?
In short - too expensive. I made a quick calculation that in my shop it would have been used like 20-30(max) times annually. Depending on the fix ratio, but even if it's 100% I can't seem to profit + the labor costs. Maybe if the device was around 100$ and licencing has a 50$/year or 100$/lifetime it would make sense buying it. Same story as the vertyanov and svod chip programmers that got greedy and out of reality with prices. Nice product at all, but sadly will be a niche piece, forgotten in time.
Buy new batteries. Don't scam your customers. You can't repair chemical battery deterioration. .
There is another software, just software that is more complicated and its price is 1000$ per year. Why ? because you can repair tons of batteries in a year. How can it be 50$ per year when taxes are about 50% ? Is this fair for a 10 years work ? It is not like you find such product everywhere, unsealing the chips is not simple. The reset price is 229$, the price of 6-7 batteries, while you can repair hundreds in a year.
@@nipembedded9976 229 + 329 ;) As I said, product is good, don't get defensive, noone is blaming it. It's just not for a regular shops, laying around, bcs price > profit. Again - a niche product for specialised repair shops (battery remarket/repair ones). If you want it to become more convenient for regular (AIO) shops, make other type of subs as #per day $10; per reset $5; per month $30; package of 20 resets $20; etc. More options, more possibilies to gain a client that fits his needs. Also with more clients lower the box price, as your main profit will be subs, don't scare them with high initial (box) price. You need a marketing person, also a public relations person in your team, bcs I follow your comments here and in other videos of your product - you argue pointless other, than be productive, you heat up fast and loose potential clients, also makes a bad impression - be smart, not right on all cause, this is business or a hobby?!? Focus on the product and leave the other business work to more responsive ppl (PR, site, marketing). This is a free advice, take it as a constructive one, don't heat up again and people will evaluate your work.
@@kriswillems5661 The example in the video is bad one. It is good for replacing cells, so you can reenable the chips after. It's not a scam if you fully inform the client and give a warranty. Here in Bulgaria, many of the people can't afford a full battery replacement, especially an original one. So it's more cost effective for them to refurbish the original battery with good replacement cells (LG/Sanyo/Samsung/etc.) and make as good as the original for half the price. The issue is a regular shop will get not more than 20 such a requests per year and only half of those will be realised with a success, so the initial and sub price for this product will stop shop owners from buying it (with current conditions).
@@kriswillems5661 There are many batteries with good cells which are only over-discharged, by pre-charging them and resetting the chip they will work normally.
When this was originally reviewed by Sorin it was a reasonable price, seem to remember about £150 / £170 region. 2 year’s on and developer has doubled the price + the annual subscriptions. Far too much now for the average repair shop to justify payback, and if the developer could even get it to work with power tools (Unlikely due to Makiita and others proprietary chips), that would be another price hike and more subscription cost. He has priced this out of the larger market now or did he try to get greedy? The $10 Coupon code is a joke! he has probably offered Sorin an affiliate cut for every coupon used. I’m not knocking Sorin, he’s a good guy.
"or did he try to get greedy" -- Probably collecting as much as possible for layers. Sooner or later one of the manufacturers will hit him, and hard. They cannot chase no-name Chinese copycats, but there he is - wide open, selling openly for anyone.
The "dishonest sponsored video alarms" went off since the first second of the video. It's close to a scam. That Romanian guy must be a very close friend, because I have never seen Sorin doing such dishonest videos on any other tool.
@@kriswillems5661 i agree... seems a special device for scammers
Everything has now a much higher price than 2 years ago, I didn't increase the profit, the profit is the same as 2 years ago, but taxes and materials are crazy high now. Do not make confusion, the NLBA1 device works lifetime as the most advanced laptop battery analyzer on the market, you paid once and you have it lifetime. If this is expensive you can compare it with Poloso tester which is a joke compared with NLBA1 and it costs more. About the Reset option, it is optionable and you can buy it when you need it if you need it. More, our NLBA1 software works with EV2400 clone which costs 25$ on Aliexpress, so if you only want to unseal and reset the battery chips you can buy EV2400 25$ + 229$ Reset License. This is the price of few batteries while you can repair hundreds or thousands in a year. More, if there is low activity on the reset license in the previous year you can get good discount for the next year. More, there is another software (just software) that costs 1000$ per year, that is expensive not NLBA1 :)
Yea, I just went to buy it and backed out due to the cost of the subscription. 😢
I have a Laptop Repair shop in Nigeria The device is great 👍. I Bought one of it and it saves me cost on battery replacements .it is a must have for All Laptop Repair shops
Pls can I have Ur no.
Ur Brother from nigeria
@@chumatez Where in Nigeria?
very good tool but 560 dollars... more ship and custom duties is a bit too much for a normal shop, maybe for a big repair lab or someone who profit with used bad batteries sold like new.... for us is more convenient sell a new battery and service than repair the old battery
Buy the EV2400 and the reset licence, its the same
@@DR-kk8xl Yes unfortunately the same 😐
That battery is over 11 years old, there's simply no way it will hold a charge for more than a few minutes. In most cases when the BMS gets locked that's a sign you have to replace the cells. The reported health percent will drastically drop after 1-2 full cycles.
If the battery hasn't had many recharge and discharges, it might be fine for a few more years?
This video is totally dodgy. Not technically dodgy, but it's obvious it's sponsored and not very truthful. Anyone with a bit of experience with 11 year laptop batteries knows this and Sorin knows this too. I felt like this about the first video and this video too. I am a bit disappointed because some people will go to buy this expensive tool for the wrong reasons. That said, it might be a nice tool for people that replace battery cells.
If the cells are kept at about 3.7V then there is no problem to store for 10 years. That's what LG reported in their datasheets.
No I think you wrong alexdev. If the battery has been locked for most of that time it will be fine. Being locked has actually saved the internal 18650s. True I have seen this before.
I have an 18 year old battery that lasts 1 hour 20 minutes, it was never used. Just because it's old doesn't mean it's necessarily bad, I have other laptops with 14 year old batteries that last over an hour.
Mrs. Sorin we needed this video from 100 years from today thanks very much i dont know how can i thank uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu
This tool is to expansive in cost for cheap betteries or private individuals. Even an undertaking will not be worthwhile, as there are permanent costs (annually) that have yet to be earned. Not to mention the customer guarantee, since it cannot replace new batteries.

@@nipembedded9976 In part I understand the subscription model, as the newer kinds of battery will need to have their batteries added, but will they be added? Very few will have "repair hundreds or thousands of the batteries" in their lifetime, never mind a year
Analysis without the ability to reset the battery is a bit useless.
The time taken to open replace and measure and close is not a money making vs purchasing a new battery makes it too expensive, especially since the product relies on good will from what appears to be a small one man shop that may not be here tomorrow, and people including me see this as a bad deal
@@karltest1314 We have many customers who bought the device to test their batteries. Otherwise, you will never know what is the real condition of the battery. More, the tester can be used to calibrate the batteries and measure the real capacity. Generating a test report does a lot when a customer complains the battery was exchanged, does not work now and it was working before and so on. Look, I really want to help people to save their batteries, those who have the device can get free resets, we already offer 10 free days to repair as many batteries as they want for free. We want to offer a fixed number of free repairs per year, like 30.
@@nipembedded9976 Please send EV2400 aliexpress link with which your software is guaranteed to work
Most of us hate subscription models, think developer should add more options how he "sells the device"
Eg.:
1. subscription model
2. higher price on start and no subscription
3. buy once at decent price with current version software and every time you want a updated program and new features, you pay once again.
4. per battery unlock $1 / 10 unlocks $15 / 100 unlocks 90$, or price they see economically viable.
Repairmen dont want to pay for something they rarely use, eg. in a month get 1-2 such cases, money wasted. Maybe small shops are not the target for this product...
This is what we have right now: Buy Reset License for 1 year, if you repair only few batteries, not more than 30 then the next year is FREE.
@@nipembedded9976 and what if the second year I use it less than 30 again? Free permanently?
@@confitero2 Free Next Year. The rule applies for each year.
@@confitero2 Next year.
I am very impressed with this tool and the software. I will be buying one at some point. 300-350 bucks is a great deal! You do have to pay to access the reset features though. You get 10 free days of the reset capability with purchase of the tool.
"I bought the NLBA1 device last year in 2021. Since then I use it a lot to analyze the batteries. Thank you guys for such great tool !"
Va urmaresc de mult timp si am invatat ff multe de la dvs , va multumesc pentru video-urile dvs , cheers 🍻
I think this is a sponsored video anyway, just like the first video. I can hear in your voice when you're being dodgy. Normally it doesn't make sense to revive years old batteries. The effect is not lasting. You can,'t reverse chemical deterioration. And batteries don't go randomly locking themselves (it can happen but it is rare) At best this would be a tool for people that replace battery cells.
He received the device ( 300+ ) and probably a year subscription for free... if this is not a sponsor... also adamant received the device... reviewed.. and never used ln other videos ( still buying batteries on amazon)

Actually some Dell laptop's batteries in my experience do. The models released after Dell's reputation of exploding Sony cell batteries are especially guilty of this. I've taken apart a number of dead Latitude E6x20 batteries so I can at least use just its shell on the laptops, some are indeed faulty and had one group of leaking cells, others have all good cells, and BMS declared death just because voltage went under 9V. Yes 8.5V over 3 cells isnt ideal but chances are the cells will all work fine after recharge. In fact, if it were a Latitude E6410 battery and its 8.5V, it would charge up anyway and work fine, although with higher internal resistance
It's not actually fixing the battery but the protection board of the batteries which prevents you from using it due to miscalibration.
All components / chips ordered from China have bigger prices now , probably that is the reason that the price is bigger
Very interesting, thank you for your effort to make this video. I have replaced bad cells before, but after investigating, found that the fuse was open. So much time spent opening the case, replacing bad battery and then still not working - so much easier to order new battery with warranty knowing it will give good service.
I received the product as quickly as possible and it was at the level. Thank you very much for your outstanding service😇😇
Yelling at screen, when trying to seal battery, you were hitting Unseal, but the Seal button was right next to it :)
They had me sold on the software but that device at $329 doesn't seem all that reasonable. I can see their approach is offering it to businesses but in my area businesses would find it cheaper to just order a new battery and charge the customer. They should offer these boxes for a lot cheaper and raise the price of the software. Surely it should be able to be replicated with an arduino and a power supply.

@@nipembedded9976 hey mate, you are the developer, right? So, is the EV2400 clone 100% compatible to your device that you are selling for 329$? So, can i do every laptop battery, even the new flat ones with it?
@@nipembedded9976 It will be nice to have a limited /year number to fix for free after you buy the device... let's say 10 batteries /year.... so, i bought the device but I'm not using it to make money, just fix batteries for my relatives, friends...
@@nipembedded9976 Hello, ive bought your NLB device couple moths ago and was impressed at first, but frankly, if i have 20 laptop battery repaired per year plus some work hour each, it doesnot justify its price. And i found some batteries unable to connect with included wires (Asus F553 for example), so for me worst addon to my workshop this year. And that licence policy, frankly, its greedy.
@@DR-kk8xl EV2400 clone is 100% compatible with the Software which is 229$ per year. Next year it could be lower like half if you don't repair too many batteries. Yes, it resets most of the laptop batteries on the market. 329$ is the price for the NLBA1 device box which is the most advanced laptop battery analyzer.
The battery is not fixed for a long time. If you see on the status screen it means in yellow "Unbalanced". This means at least one battery might be bad. So I think the sealed status is coming back soon because the internal controller measures that constantly.
If you read the screen correctly, then you see that the imbalance is only 51 mV. All cells are around 3,4V which means that none of them are bad. Usually, when a cell goes bad it either drops voltage to zero or even reverts it to a negative value, but that's not the case here.
It will balance after charge. If you even have basic knowledge you not gonna ask this question
buy a new battery and rip up old battery and keep good cells... money saved.
Sorin , teardown this laptop battery tester....
I'd only pay the exorbitant price if it could do laptop, PLUS phones, tablet batteries as well as power tool batteries from Milwaukee, makita, dewalt even ego etc. Looking at their forum's power tools , n tablet batteries are not possible, n doubtful power tool batteries been 2 yrs no news or development. When if ever it can do tablet and especially power tool batteries I'd happily buy 10 sets. Until then sadly no not enough money to be made out of it. I have over 400 dead Milwaukee and ego 56v batteries sitting here as cell harvesting only. My main business is laptops phones tablets and more and more power tools.
yea its too expensive you can buy new batteries 10-15 dollar and sell to client 25-30 dollar. i already tried refurbish battery business 10 years ago and it wasnt worth it. back then i used to read out eeprom from working battery and flash it to faulty battery. had my shop for many years maybe i had like 10 customers a year to repair batteries. no money there
Tabs and Tablets batteries use same chips like laptop batteries, bq30z55, bq40z55, bq9000 etc and supported by device. Just check the description.
@@electricelectronich9979 All these chips are supported by our software.

Most batteries are really defective and cannot be saved with a simple chip reset. That's why this device is overpriced. (Almost) nobody will really make a profit with it, maybe ~5% can be saved with a simple reset, but most of them are simply used up and (almost) worthless junk. Where does this exaggerated price calculation from the manufacturer come from, what is the calculation behind it? This company should calculate realistic prices, then it would certainly generate more interest in this device. The question should be allowed.
Usualy from 10 batteries 7 are dead.

Making a sponsored video and telling it is not sponsored is close to a scam. Sorin knows everything you wrote without any doubt.
Foarte interesant și util mai ales pentru laboratoare.
Și cum ai spus, Sorin este potrivit pentru cei cărora le este greu să achiziționeze o baterie nouă.Și apropo....o mică căutare pe site-urile chinezești arată produse similare la un preț foarte corect și rezonabil

In exit you let the chip unsealed. There's a button in the right of unsealed button, wich can safely exit the boot console.
Thank you for your sharing. The content is very useful
This might look expensive but this device is for repair shops and refurbished battery shops that turn over a decent amount of batteries. The manufacturer is probably building them by himself. He needs to be properly compensated for that. And, yes, if he can sell more than he can produce, he can raise the price, or confront customers with an ever increasing delivery time. Mass-production is not really appropriate, because if the battery manufacturers will prevent this device from working, this device's manufacturer won't be able to sell his stock anymore.
Is it illegal? - Most probably not, because single unprotected 18650's can also still be bought. And certainly not more illegal than what the OEMs do nowadays, in order to prevent any kind of 3rd party repair at any cost.
In the comments, I see people complaining about the price. Well, this device is not for you. It's for repair shops that are able to justify the cost. Not for end users. And what about the license fee? I suppose, you'll get updates for that money. The manufacturer probably needs to pay money for the info on battery chip unlocking and for update hosting, so it is fair to ask for compensation.
But I am still very much against what the laptop and other Li-ion device OEMs are doing here. I also like to fix my equipment by myself. I'd love to have an unlock device like this but I'm not a repair shop, so I can't afford it. But I WILL fix my stuff. I'll visit a repair shop that offers battery unlocking. Or if the laptop is already an older model, I'd cut out or bypass the OEM's battery stuff. There's plenty of BMS and charging circuits available that I could build in. I don't need Windows to know my laptop's battery state. I just need a LED that indicates charging and a LED that shows when it is almost empty. And with the custom BMS comes the custom battery options: Small cells if you only need to be able to finish up and shutdown when mains fails, or big ones if you need it to go for at least 12 hours on batteries.
If you have EV2300/EV2400 and you want to reset a chip, just ping me and I will do it for free. Thanks for the comment.
Unless your a repair shop that does battery repairs every day then this tool is not worth the price for 1yr license. The tool used to be at a very reasonable price but the developer decided to get greedy and triple the price. Do not waste your money, just buy a new battery instead.
I agree
Well, their main target are repair shops and not direct customers

Nice kit! Amazing what it can do.
But HOLY WOWWW! It's wayyyyy over priced!!!
Especially when the main price only allows reset of 10 batteries and you have to pay another, what works out to about $10 per month for more.

Same here.
Easier just to get a new battery, 10-15 quid here for one.
But the idea is good, need to do some research and try to make cheaper solution as this one js just overpriced.

Awesome, all those laptop batteries I bought for customers and all I may have needed is this? OMG!
Could be, we offer free support to people in our community. We can guide you on what is the problem. We can offer you even a longer free period to reset batteries.
Thank you Sorin , you are providing a great service to your subscribers , Greetings from Australia .
Would a shop make enough money off repairing batteries to pay for what amounts to $807 CAD for the inital outlay including 1 yr of battery resets?
Yeah not worth it IMO. Batteries are 15 to 30 dollars and rarely need replacing. Like he said the battery is still good just locked. I tear them apart neatly to get to the battery points and charge the batteries directly for these types of batteries. Hasn't failed me yet and if there is a chance the battery doesn't hold a charge I tell the customer they will need it replaced if it fails again. I usually just charge a small fee for labor and if it does come back I tell the customers that the labor price gets carried over to a nee battery install. Haven't had to do that, so this is not worth it.
Not at that price
To expansive. 🤗
The device price is paid once and you have lifetime access to the most advanced Laptop Battery Analyzer on the market. The Chip Reset Option is optionable and you can buy it when you want if you want. For 229$ you can repair hundreds or thousands of the batteries in a year, it is the price of 6-7 batteries. More, NLBA1 Software works with EV2400 clone which is only 25$ on Aliexpress, so for unsealing and resetting the chips it costs only 25$ (EV2400 adapter) + 229$ for 12 months. More, if you repair less batteries in the last year you can get 50% OFF for the next year. Is this worse than throwing away good batteries ?
@@gadget_hack 15 to 30$? You mean cells, not batteries, i think? Good new batteries, with good cells cost approx. 50-65$ where i live, so the customer would pay 30$ 100% and not having to buy a new battery. And i have this situation more than 5 times per month.
Mrs. Sorin we need a video how to change battery cells and how to test it please please please
Rightly said Sir, Poor Countries, Poor people cannot afford , your kind heart did sense love for Poor people, God bless you ❤️. SIR
BE2Works program, CP2112 adapter smbus interface to usb, and benchtop power supply.
dont forget to mention that software cost $350 and cp2112 now cost $50
@@electricelectronich9979 and that be2works is the worse Reset tool with awful support. Most of our customers are coming from be2works.
also bulb, wires, many questions without answer on their forum, just check their forum activity and our forum activity.
It is very interesting...It really helps us to know first the health of battery...Looking forqard for more guides and hoping sooner we can buy that someday. Thnak you Sir
I don't know about expensive.
300 for hardware that's fine, it needs things to work reliably, you want precision, you get a charger and a cell equalizer.
200 per year is 20 dollars a month. Customer comes in, says battery won't charge, needs new battery, isn't that old. You say "hey I have this tool, diagnostic, it may fix your battery for quite a while, only 10 dollars for the diagnose (and fix if it works). If not, we order new battery.
You think you can't sell this twice a month? If you don't get 2 iffy batteries a month, ok, yes, you shouldn't be getting dedicated hardware.
More, we can offer free Reset License period if there is low activity with low number of resets. We can offer for example 20 resets for free in a year.
@@nipembedded9976 bro tell me more about this free reset for those that have the device
@@ahmadisa1094 Now are you interested in ? Just continue to buy Chinese clones :)
Thanks all nlba1 team
Next tool would be to run live distro that directly speaks to the battery via the BMS interface that´s already in the laptop.
I don't think that would be possible, which is why you need the external device.
Sorin 😂you are amazing. Ready to get online with the update’s and I get 4 movies from you. I will see later I have to work 😂 thank you
Great video man. What a cool device. Thanks for letting the repair community know.
Lovely. I want one. But mostly I find cells are dead which makes the system bms lock out. What about password protected chips? BE2works is software that can do similar. But I tried and failed with 1 bat I tried with that software.
I also never managed to reset at least one battery with be2works. Their support is also very poor. Look, if you have NLBA1 I can give you free Resets.
One of the best acquisitions for our organization. If you are a hobbyist, this is not for you. For a service center that repairs batteries, that's it. Inexpensive price for the tester and for the program. Intuitive control and constant technical support.
Одно из лучших приобретений для нашей организации. Если вы занимаетесь ремонтом как любитель, то для вас не подойдёт. Для сервисного центра, который занимается ремонтом батарей, самое то. Недорогая цена для тестера и для программы. Интуитивное управление и постоянная техподдержка.
This guy is my new hero
Thank you Sorin. Greetings from Lagos, Nigeria. Your tutorial is highly educational, if there is anything amazing in the video is the level at which you sounded so real. I must confess this device and software is really fantastic, though the price is a bit high for me. I would like to know if same device will work with new generation laptop battery. i have some of them that would not charge despite the fact they are not puff or swell up.
I like to order it, but we in nigeria have issue with dollar rate. is too cost for us!
Great video, could you please give me some advice? I have the same problem you show in the beginning, but with a more modern Li-ion battery. But the strange thing in my case is this:
In the beginning of this week the battery seemed to work fine. Only thing was, when the laptop was turned on, it lasted a reasonable amount of time but when the laptop was turned off, the fully charged battery was drained to 0% overnight. I again charged it, it could be used normally, but when turned off, the battery was drained after a couple of hours. I repeated this a couple of times and now the battery is dead exactly as in your video.
Before using the laptop this week, I hadn't used it for half a year. Half a year ago the laptop got very hot during a download and then I turned it off and put it to the side (it's not my main laptop).
I think either my battery was somehow faulty or there is some other hardware faulty in my laptop, that causes battery drain over night. Do you know what this might be and how I can try to repair it? Thank you. (I already ordered a replacement battery, I did not know you can fix Li-batteries. So in the best case I replace battery and it works. But I am asking for the case where my laptop is damaging the battery, what could I do to find out)
A wonderful device worth investing in. Thank you and stay well.
Looks much like the TI EV2300 with Gauge Studio Tool or BQStudio, cheap knockoffs of those on aliexpress...
I think you did not get it. ALL the chips are well secured, how do you pass the security ? NLBA1 does it.
Sorin, please make a teardown of that device! Let's create a cheaper one! ;)
In Brazil this costs 2900 Reais including taxes, I prefer to have my customer buy a new battery, since we don't have lots of battery jobs to justify the investment.
2900 with ONLY 10 days for resetting chips, it's not viable.
Thanks for sharing this was very interesting
Wow thank you very much sir, where I can able to buy that battery programming tool?
Love your energy, keep going strong !
he seems like a cool guy
Nice video, i have this tool, i am very happy to use to repair battery for DJI drone. very good price for licenses DJI and laptop battery.
I still feel pretty bad about this video and the replies of this company. This is a dishonest video. I am an electronics engineer. I design the stuff you fix. You will not miraculously fix hundreds of batteries with this tool. Most batteries go bad because of detoriation, not because of a chip that blocks for no reason. This company should sell the tool for the right reason, and not just sponsor a dodgy video with false claims. The tool is mainly intented for analysis and chip reset after cell replacement. It will not fix hundreds of batteries by only pushing a button. The designer of this tool is probably an engineer too and must be aware of this. I would expect more honesty.
You cannot replace cells on Lenovo batteries without the device from this video (as LEnovo decided to lock the bms). Of course it is intended to help with replacing cells. But Sorin is not into the replacing cells business. You know Sorin is having a personal way of repairing things. Calling this dishonest is stupid, sorry.
@@silviuguseila2552 Read the replies of the creator and listen to the video of Sorin, both seem to suggest you'll fix lots of batteries just by pressing a button and this while Sorin has never used the tools in any of his videos to do so. I respect Sorin and love the dodgy-ness of his techniques. It shows he has lots of experience. But when he's promoting a tool in a totally illogical way and he says it's not sponsored (which is obviously not true - given the exaggerated claims) - well, that's just one step too far.
@@silviuguseila2552 So you're saying, Sorin buys the cheapest UNI-T bench multimeter on the market. He buys a cheapest hot air station. Both are tools he needs all day. But for repairing batteries, he's buying a super expensive magical tool + yearly subscription out of his own money - and he claims he's going to make money from that tool (and this while he never replaced battery cells). You must be pretty naïve to believe such a thing.
@@silviuguseila2552 The video is total bullshit. The reported health of the 11 years old battery was high, just because the controller reported it to be healthy. It's meaningless. To know the real health, you've to go though a charge/discharge cycle. This takes time. Sorin knows this for sure. It's all fake. This battery is not fixed.
@@kriswillems5661 almost all hateful comments are yours. You seem to have an agenda or a tooth to pick. It is obvious Sorin is a tech geek and he presented the same level of enthusiasm with other hardware in the past. He buys the cheapest? What is wrong with you, why you make all this fake stories about him? Look at how many people critisied him for buying a thermal camera that is too expensive... He explained he has plenty of multimeters, he just needed one that would have PC connection to show the display on the youtube screen. It is hardly the cheapest, btw.
And why do you keep talking about the license, the guy explained he is offering free 10 days, free 20 unlocks per year pr even more if you ask for them.
Seriously, while ypu are entitled to your opinion, the way you push your comments on and on and make accusations without any sort of proof make your opinions totally not worthy of attention.
Is this device unique and very usefull as a battery analizer? Yes, Sorin has never seen another one. Yes, I have never seen another one. Is there something else cheaper? No. So what is your point?
Hi Bro ! May I know the brand name of machine that repairs battery? Does it work on high generation laptop battery?
I have two campuses that I service as an IT of a school district. Do I need a 'reset chip' to unlock the battery if it's not charging? I hate to throw away batteries if the battery is still good. If not, then I would like to purchase this device.
Sorin you didn’t noticed the seal button 😂
Nice, Good Job Legend Sorin 😃
Great tool, I use it mostly for hobby/personal use!
Ale cena jest jakaś z kosmosu.
That is a very good review and share of priceless information thank you again Sorin
Great tool but why do I pay for license every year since I've purchased it once ? How much will be the license cost.? I see it says free 12 months reset license.
Good day i like your honest opinion on the unit the day i have the money for the unit i am buying me one.thank you very much
thanks, it actually let me through so i could download it.
The NLBA is awesome, BUT for a small repair business like mine, it is way too expensive for the reset feature! It was $229 for one year unlimited reset, but, like all greedy companies, they have already raised the price the price to $269! I may get 5 batteries in a year where I can reset the battery to fix it but there is no way I will make that money back. The company should have an option for buying reset per battery, maybe like $5 for reset per battery for smaller repair shops. I am just so sick of greedy companies. Yes, it is a great tool but not a good company or owner. GREEDY
Pay per battery is not an option since the batteries cannot be counted due to technical reasons (some yes, but not all, 50%/50%) and the logistic to create licenses for battery number, invoices, support, etc leads this option to unfeasible.
شكرا
That’s a cool bit of kit. I wonder if that’s the problem with my Asus laptop. When I take the charger out the screen goes black but it’s still on.
This tool can be used to clone batteries, reading and writing eeprom is the best feature.
what about built in battery , is there any solution to revive the battery , can we use the same box and connected to usb or something like this
here we usually break the case to open using banana oil, check cells voltages, if some cell is bad replace it for another USED cell and short circuit some pin that will unlock it. I'm from brazil by the way, and yes we are poor
OMG! Thank you so much bro!
Unseal. Unseal. Unseal. SEAL! 😂
If design capacity is 5200 mah 6 x 2600mah cell battery and i replaced with 6x 3600mah cells for 7200mah capacity
Will i need to change the design capacity value for the battery to actually use the new capacity?
Will it fully charge/discharge properly or will it be shutting off charge/ discharge early based on design capacity.
Or would the higher initial capacity just keep the health counter full for longer (over provisioned capacity)
Depending on the chip, you need to edit the FCC or to relearn it.
thank you so much
I had a HP that said it had 300% capacity battery charged but dies immediately if mains is unplugged. I'd bought a new one anyway and pulled the old one apart. 2 of the cells had blistered and leaked the other 2 appeared ok and charged via external charger but when attempted to use them they dropped all voltage. So in my case a replacement was the only option.
@Mr Guru If you have NLBA1 device I can offer free Resets, yes FREE.
hello sorin, this tool can reset macbook 2015 higher batery ?
Do you only get do many battery resets and have to purchase more ?
Good info please keep it up. Thanks for Video.
what equipment do you use ? How much? I would like to fix my battery using IC bq2060, May you answer me , please?
Just check the description of the video, you will find the link there
This is an old reveiw, already been done by yourself and others
what a pretty device.. love to have it
Nice Video again Thank you Guru
Good job
hello, can is use with tool´s batteries? thank, very good👍
Very good tool but very expensive !
Not really, you pay the tester once and you have it lifetime. More, we offer free resets if there are not many, if they are many and you earn money we want money too :)
Excellent tool !!!
very expensive tool for the possibly money you can do with it.
Interesanta jucaria asta, multi arunca bateriile ca ei cred ca se strica
Thanks for your sharing
Good job mate 👍
Very professional tool
Maybe battery sellers (eg 'BetterBatt' in Australia) can benefit most from this tool to check & reset and batteries returned to them as defective, and to check & refurbish defective original batteries customers send to them as trade ins or recycling.
No idea if this device can be used on chinese replicas
@@laboratorioassembler No, I don't offer support for poor Chinese chips, it is a time-wasting.
Absolutely amazing work!
SEAL BUTTON ON THE RIGHT
hello
i have cp2112 and trying to unlock my laptop battery toshiba, but i cant find program to do that
CP2112 like EV2300 are just adapters, they do nothing. You need to buy a good software to operate them.
