If they have any sense, they just chuck it and ship you a new one. You can't afford the labor to crack a blinkie open just to put a new $3 battery into a $3 device when it's probably RF welded anyway.
Probably true, but it's their call, and it doesn't matter to me whether I get a new battery or a new unit.
Their instructions tell me to include the mount and USB cord, which I don't have. I hope they don't mind.
