Introduction

This guide will show you how to replace the battery in the Anker Soundcore Life Q30 headphones. The battery is what allows power and charge through the headphones, so a faulty battery can cause the headphones to become weak or not turn on at all. Replacing this will require you to resolder the replacement battery to the circuit board. Before you begin, make sure to turn off the headphones and unplug them from their charger.

    • Orient the headphones such that the headphone speakers are closest to you, and the headband is furthest from you.

    • Adjust the folding hinge to where the speakers are facing up.

    • Make sure you can easily reach the edge where the cushion connects to the rest of the headphones.

    • Using one hand, hold the right side of the headphones still.

    • Using your other hand, slide the plastic opening tool in the edge along the cushion.

    • Gently pry the cushion off using the plastic opening tool.

    • Set the right ear cushion aside and repeat this step for the left side of the headphones.

    • Remove the four 5.7 mm screws from the headphone driver using a Phillips #00 screwdriver.

    • Pull the headphone driver apart from the headphones.

    • If you’re having difficulty doing so without any tools, use tweezers to get a better grip on it.

    • Lift the drivers out of the headphones.

    • Remove the wires from the circuit board that connect the drivers.

    • Take note of where the wires are connected, as you will have to solder them back to the circuit board.

    • Pull the microphone (circular blue part) from its socket by the connected red wire that is covered in black rubber.

    • Take note of where the microphone is, as you will have to reconnect it.

    • The wire itself is connected to the battery and will disconnect the battery from the exterior piece of the earcup.

    • Unscrew the four 5.7 mm screws with a Phillips #00 screwdriver connecting the earcup to the headphone’s frame.

    • Remove the earcup.

    • Unscrew the 5.7mm screw with a Phillips #00 screwdriver within the green circuit board connected to the battery.

    • Carefully pry the green circuit board and battery off of the earcup.

    • The battery may be glued into place, which will require some force to remove.

    • If you are following this guide to reach the buttons, ignore this step.

    • Remove the wires connecting the battery from the circuit board.

    • Note the placement of the wires you remove, as you will have to solder them back into place.

    I can't believe you left out the most important part. What are the dimensions and mAh capacity of the Battery. Where can we order one? I certainly don't want to begin this job without having a replacement battery, ready to be installed.
