The Pismo battery is very easy to dismantle and reassemble with no damage, just peal one sticker and squeeze the white plastic pieces with a screw driver, to close it just press both parts together. The cells are easy to replace for someone with a soldering iron. We just need to find a source for Li-Ion cells. Any clues anyone? Joaquim
