Wand Company Star Trek Communicator: How / where can I get a replacement battery?

Sat, 20 Jun 2026 18:53:19 -0700

My Communicator was left on display on it's unplugged charging base for about 7 or 8 months. The unit would not power up and when I plugged in the charger to charge the unit, the light does not strobe from yellow to red when the Communicator is placed on the charger, but stays strobing blue to green.

Does this mean my battery is damaged and can no longer be charged?

And if so, how or where can I purchase a replacement battery

Thanks....

JBL Flip 3: I dropped my JBL Flip 3 on the ground and now it doesn't work. Help!

Sat, 13 Jun 2026 20:42:57 -0700

So yes, it did happen. My JBL Flip 3 fell on the ground (solid ground, cobbles) and now I can't turn it on. However it does show some sign of functioning. For instance, if I want to charge it (not that the battery is the problem, it's almost fully charged) those battery lights do light up but if I press the power button nothing happens. So my question is, what do I do? Is JBL Flip 3 repairable like... can it be disjoint and fixed or is it a one-piece that is now over with? Your help will be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance :)

Xiaomi Bluetooth Speaker: Bluetooth Speaker not charging.

Thu, 11 Jun 2026 01:00:06 -0700

Hi,

my Bluetooth speaker stopped charging one day. As far as I know it did not suffer any physical damage or anything of sorts. I used to carry it with me sometimes but usually in a bag.

It still has some juice in it because it turns on but after a few seconds turns itself of with not enough battery. LED indicator doesn't even lit up when I connect it to USB cable.

I already opened the device and well everything looks in place. So, if anyone have any idea of what might be the faulty part I would be grateful for suggestions.

It's actually pretty cheap but I am kinda curious what went wrong.

Thank you.

JBL Boombox: Won’t charge. Won’t turn on.

Tue, 09 Jun 2026 21:29:17 -0700

I have spent so many hours trying to figure it out. This is what chat gpt wrote for me.

I’m hoping someone can help before I give up on this thing.

I have a JBL Boombox that will not power on. I completely disassembled it and replaced the battery with a brand new one, but the problem remains.

With the battery disconnected, I tested the charger input. The small DC jack/USB board outputs a steady 20V through the 6-pin connector when it is unplugged from the main board. However, the instant I plug that 6-pin connector into the main board, the charger voltage collapses and I get a small blue arc/spark at the connector. The 20V immediately drops to about 0.5V, which makes me think the main board has a dead short on the input rail.

So far I have found:

New battery installed (no change).

Charger outputs 20V normally.

20V is present on the jack board with the main board disconnected.

Connecting the jack board to the main board causes the voltage to collapse to ~0.5V and produces a small arc.

Battery is disconnected during these tests.

I have a multimeter and can take resistance, continuity, diode, or voltage measurements if someone can point me in the right direction.

Has anyone repaired this failure before? Is there a common component that shorts on these boards (TVS diode, Schottky diode, input MOSFET, charger IC, etc.)? If anyone has a schematic, board-level repair experience, or knows the typical failure point, I’d really appreciate the help before I throw this thing in the dumpster.

JBL Flip 4: Removing Swollen Battery from JBL Flip 4

Sun, 07 Jun 2026 14:10:26 -0700

My Flip 4’s battery went kaput. I researched how to swap the battery, purchased a replacement and was doing great until I realized that the original battery has swelled to the point that I’ve not been able to remove it.

In trying to remove it, the wiring harness ripped off and a little fire started!

I have a certified JBL repair facility two blocks away, but was hoping to get this done myself.

What’s a safe way to remove a swollen battery from a Flip 4?

bowers and wilkins A7: Bowers and Wilkins A7 dissassembly guide?

Sat, 06 Jun 2026 18:38:54 -0700

I have a B&W A7 wireless speaker box that I can no longer power on.

My unit worked very well for a long time up until a few weeks ago when it stopped working. Apparently, this is a power supply problem because there is no current draw for the 120VAC (Totally open circuit measured in the power outlet).

I need to troubleshooting the power supply, but I need to open the unit case to do that and after a very detailed inspection I can not see how to open the unit to have access to circuits inside the A7 wireless speaker system.

So, I need some help to tell me how is the procedure to open the B&W A7 to have access to its power supply to repair it.

Thanks in advance for any help

Bose Soundlink Mini II: Sound link mini 2 not turning on after using the wrong charger

Fri, 05 Jun 2026 01:29:18 -0700

Hi everyone, hoping someone here can help me out.

I made the mistake of using a LiPo battery charger on my Bose SoundLink Mini 2 and it hasn’t worked properly since. I think it has damaged the charge controller or possibly the main board.

I have already replaced the battery and boost PCB board (part number 088772) with a brand new one but nothing has changed. I tried doing a firmware update through btu.bose.com but the computer won’t detect the speaker through the micro USB port. I have also tried multiple button reset combinations including holding the power button for 30 seconds and the forced firmware sequence A, D, V, Up Arrow, Down Arrow but none of it has worked. I have left it on wall charge for a good while too.

At the moment the only thing it does is flash yellow when I hold the multifunction button while connected to power. The computer doesn’t detect it at all through micro USB even with a known data cable. The gold charging contacts seem fine and the PCB looks clean with no burn marks or anything obviously wrong with it.

What I really want to know is whether there is any kind of hardware level reset possible on the main board, and whether this could be a blown charging IC or fuse that someone could identify and replace. Also wondering if the main board itself is replaceable.

Any advice would be really appreciated, I’d love to save this speaker if at all possible. Thanks
