Reemplazar baterías Clarisonic
The batteries used to replace the original are Ni-Mh AA 1300mAh just like these in this eBay add, I just got them off eBay 'cause it was easier for me to get them at home and not having to go search for them, but any good electronic store might have them
www.ebay.com/i...
I preferred to get Ni-Mh, so won't have memory effect as the original Ni-Cd that the Clarisonic came with, also when the batteries are completely charged in the Clarisonic charger the Clarisonic should be removed from the charger, the problem with cheap chargers in general is that it won't know when the batteries are charged and keep sending current to the batteries, this over current is dissipated as heat, and the batteries would suffer with that heat and basically break them. The Ni-Mh batteries can cope better by the heat produced by that overcharge.
Talking about the mAh the higher the number the better capacity those batteries have to hold the charge, so basically the Clarisonic will not have to visit the charger so often.
Another important thing is not letting the batteries run out of juice completely as this will also break them.

Las baterías usadas para reemplazar las originales son AA Ni-Mh 1300 mAh como las de este anuncio de eBay:
www.ebay.com/i...
Las compré a través de eBay por la comodidad de no tener que salir a buscarlas y recibirlas en casa, pero cualquier buena tienda de electrónica seguramente las tendrá.
Yo preferí comprar Ni-Mh, porque supuestamente no tienen tanto efecto memoria como las Ni-Cd que venían de origen en el Clarisonic. Es importante quitar el Clarisnoc de su cargador una vez cargado completamente, el problema con los cargadores baratos en general es que siguen mandando corriente a las baterías incluso cuando éstas están completamente cargadas, esa corriente de más se disipa en forma de calor y las baterías sufren con ese calor y básicamente las va estropeando.
Acerca de la capacidad de las baterías, ésta se mide en mAh, de manera rápida se puede decir que cuanto más alto el número de mAh de una batería, mas capacidad tiene, es decir menos tendremos que poner el Clarisonic a cargar.
Otro aspecto importante es no dejar que el Clarisonic se quede completamente sin carga porque esto rompe también las baterías.
Why the heck did they make it nearly impossible to replace the batteries. I guess the 200 + dollars spent wasn’t enough for this company they want you to buy a new one every time they release it. Even ppl are tired of iPhone for the same reason. Thank you sir. I know I am very late, but your video is still useful.
This is great! I have a Clarisonic Plus that I've owned for about 10 years and it finally stopped working. I feel lucky because I see some people who purchased more recently are barely getting 3 years use before it dies.
Anyway, I just got off the phone with Clarisonic and they told me they don't sell the Plus any more. They gave me a coupon for 25% off a Mia.
After watching this video I am going to try and put new batteries in my Plus. I figure I've got nothing to lose since it's dead anyway.
I'll report back if it works for me. I am not handy at all so pray that I don't solder my eyeballs shut or glue my feet to the ground or anything like that.
Thanks for this video!
PATOLA PATOLA mine lasted 7 yrs. and I had bought an extra brush a few yrs. ago, that was I think over $40.00! So much for thinking ahead, now they don’t make them! I’m not handy enough to try to fix it!🤨
Patola, please let me know how this worked for you. I have the plus too and it just stoped working,i bough it in 2012. Ive read the reviews on the Mia too many negatives.
Bought a Clarisonic 7 years ago for one daughter. It still works but rarely used. Bought another one 14 months ago for other daughter that is now dead. Won’t charge at all. What a waste of money. Now after doing a lot of research, I’ve learned that there are other methods of washing that clean just as well as these pricey units without the high cost and without the skin/capillary damage.
They should certainly use a way to change the batteries once they reach the end of their life's, specially not only because it is a pricey item, but because the environmental waste we produce every time we dispose one appliance for a small flair like this
Awesome vid, 1 sub earned. Was looking for a guide to replace the battery in this thing for my grandma, much appreciated!
Clarisonic should be ashamed of themselves, what a stupid design!
Lucy
$240+ down the drain. I will never buy another Clarisonic again.👎🏻 😡👎🏻
Lucy They do this for the sole reason of us having buy a replacement. Rip offs.
Yeah I know. I spent almost 300$ and they ha e the shittiest warranty will never buy again
Absolutely pathetic and expensive product.... barely lasted a few months.
My Clarisonic has stopped working after 2.5 years... it registers being charged, but won’t turn on. Although I have used it 1-2 times daily for this long, it’s such a simple device to just stop working after that time... especially since I paid $130 for it not including all the replacement brush heads.
Thank you for the great video. You saved me a lot of money today!
Is there any way you can do this for a fee? If we attempt this we'll end up in hospital.
I am so sorry but I think it would not be economically viable, only taking into account the shipping & possible custom charges I think it would probably be cheaper to just buy a new one. I would do it for free if you would be local, but otherwise I would recommend to find an amateur repairman in your friends and / or family, you will probably find someone able to do it for you.
Cris Merton hahah seriously. I need this done to mine too 😂
Cris Merton use leather gloves
Do you happen to be in Washington state?
just cut myself
Thank you SO much. I definitely will replace my batteries and save myself 100 bucks!
Thank you so much for this video. I’m going to get my Dad to fix mine now that I know it just needs new batteries. Thankfully my Dad is handy like you!
Didn't we gloss over the actual battery replacement part?
Thank you! I thought i was loosing my mind for a second.
Ditto! Reason why I chose to watch😣
Could be a SUPERB business opportunity......Clarisonic battery replacements.......if the company is in the same country.....not a problem with shipping it to get it fixed.....
hi! i’m getting a new clarisonic mia 2 & i did my research on Ni-Cd batteries... so it says from my research that i should completely discharge it before charging it AND dont overcharge it. so is your statement in the description that says not to let batteries completely run out of juice for Ni-Mh? just making sure. thanks!
Great video. About to attempt this fix for my girlfriend. Question: Why did you choose to not wipe off the excess silicone before it hardened? I was planning on using hot glue in place of silicone for this repair, but I think the silicone will give it a cleaner look.
I ask about the excess goop, because it seems like extra work to remove it after it's hardened. Also, wouldn't you be left with a jagged edge from the cutting?
This amateur repairman is eager to know your reply!
Sorry it took me so long to respond back, I was just very busy when I first saw your email and forgot about it afterwards. Anyway, just in case you did not do it yet, I just thought it would be easier to cut the excess with a sharp razor edge or cutter than the mess to clean fresh silicone that goes everywhere. And it worked. :)
How often does the Clarisonic have to be on the charger to ensure it doesn’t run out of juice?
Mine is 5 years old, just quit charging.....I guess I will change the battery's.
Hola Nacho he intentado hacer lo del vídeo pero cuando sueldo las baterías el clarisonic me hace una música descendente y se queda en un sumbido permanente. Que he podido hacer mal para que no funcione? Muchas gracias
Good video but I think it is best to wipe the silicone around the edges before it dries. If you cut the silicone with a blade once it dried you could be opening a hole through an air bubble.
When I soldered the final connection the green LED started blinking. When I press the power button it just blinks green 15 times consecutively. I used eneloop batteries and they come charged. To sum it up, is there some sort of reset I need to do, or must I put it on the charger for 24 hours even with charged batteries? You would think it would just work off the bat. I also have not put the back on yet, but don’t see why that would matter. Any help would be much appreciated!
Do uou have to change out the battery if it comes with a charger?
I bought mine 3 months ago, and it will not charge up at all while sitting in the charger overnight.
It is still under warranty so they will send you a new one.
How has the silicone held up to this point?
Hi, thanks for your video. I just opened a Clarisonic Aria or Mia3 and the batteries still had 2.3V. I hocked up a new set with 2.8V now but still nothing. The brush only beeps 3 times and the red light is flashing. What else could I do to fix it?
Your voltage is probably too high. It might have a voltage cut off feature to prevent overload
@@girl6girl6 Thanks I'll try that.
If I knew u could replace the batteries I wouldn’t have thrown mine away. Best brush ever 😩😩😩 the new ones totally suck
I was just getting ready to throw mine away.
My belief is that you should never let any type of battery run out of juice, but then again, I am no expert in batteries, so do as you think is best. Good luck 😁
Tengo el mia smart, pero no tengo el cargador, como le puedo hacer que me recomiendas
compliments, very good job, but I would like to see it works with brush!
My clarisonic worked very well for the first 2-3 years, after it stopped functioning, I would repair it, but it is not possible because there is no customer care! what should I do, should I throw it away? I do not think it is right, last week I took to repair a 30 $ blender, because I can not fix a device that costs 5 times as much and it works only 1 minute a day? I went to sephora, checked the box and the sheets inside, there is no written anywhere that, after the two years of warranty, you have to throw it in the rubbish! is a very, very incorrect behavior, not all people can afford to spend 150 $ (and more) every 2 years! for this reason I am trying to alert people who, before buying clarisonic, also consider this issue! please, share this, it is very important that all people who want to buy clarisonic know this problem too!
I had the same problem.
Same here!! It stop after 2 years what a waste of money! Did you write a review, please do it will help a lot of folks
Can you list the names of all the tools you used in this video? Would greatly appreciate it!
Cutter (or razor blade or whatever is called over there) to pry open:www.amazon.com/Darice-Retractable-Razor-Knife-Assorted/dp/B002C12EHM/ref=sr_1_8?ie=UTF8&qid=1472470342&sr=8-8&keywords=cutterSome kind of lever to help you opening while you cut with the cutter, I just used the edge of an halogen lamp I had around at the momentSoldering iron with some core solder to solder the new batteries:www.amazon.com/60-Watts-Soldering-Iron-listed/dp/B0006NGZK0/ref=sr_1_5?ie=UTF8&qid=1472470535&sr=8-5&keywords=soldering+ironAnd Silicone with a silicone gun to re-glue batteries and make the Clarisonic water tight again.www.amazon.com/Newborn-930-GTD-Drip-Free-Caulking-Cartridge/dp/B000BQS5GO/ref=sr_1_2?s=software&ie=UTF8&qid=1472470816&sr=8-2&keywords=silicone+gunwww.amazon.com/08646-White-Silicone-Sealant-9-8-Ounce/dp/B0002GU14C/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1472470862&sr=8-1&keywords=white+siliconeBut you could use one of those tubes of silicone that do not need the gun if you don't have any:www.amazon.com/J-B-Weld-31312-All-Purpose-Silicone/dp/B00M2USVI4/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1472470899&sr=8-3&keywords=white+silicone
Thanks for linking the products. I forgot to include this question in my first comment. What was that bottle of white stuff? And how long did you leave the white stuff on before placing both halves together again?
Jenn that is silicone, not trying to offend, but if you have never seen or used silicone I would ask a friend (that knows how to use a razor balde, soldering iron and silicone) to do this for you... You just apply the silicone, put both halves together and let it cure for 24h. then cut the excess with the razor blade. You can hurt yourself severely with the razor blade if you don't know how to use it, specially when cutting both halves apart as they are thermo-glued together... ALWAYS KEEP YOUR HANDS OR BODY AWAY FROM THE CUTTING EDGE WHEN YOU ARE HOLDING THE CLARISONIC
I just diden't know how to glue the perimeter, the video really help!
Thank you for this video!!!
Thank You
I say it is worth it! Especially if, like I did twice, pay nearly $300 each for this damn thing.
Wow they made that difficult for the customer!
Another genius idea by the manufacturers.I have arthritis in my hands so there’s no way I can get this thing open. Unfortunately it’s going to end up in the landfill. I will never buy another Clarisonic product.
Try taking 6 mg of boron a day
this made me happy : )
what batteries did you replace with?
I bought a set off eBay as I said in the video I just searched for AA rechargeable batteries WITH TABS in order to solder them directly
What state are you in? USA?
I live in Spain (Europe)
I watched this video to learn How To CHANGE the batteries... You kind of skipped that part
Same... like, that's the part I needed...
So, you have to break the seal to change the batteries, and the chance of water getting INSIDE skyrockets!! Whose brilliant idea was that in the design department?? I guess this would be the time to test out the tube of Silicone by FlexSeal. ALSO... you never did show how to "Remove" the batteries!!
Great job you make it look so easy
Looks kinda hard.
Seriously dude?!
No think u I just bought another
throw it away. i did
oh shit, who has time for all that?? I'll go buy another once. Good Bye! No going to slice my wrist trying to replace a stupid battery.
