I've been trying to find some information on how to get at the battery in the Golf Buddy Platinum (white) model. All indication are that you have to send it back to golf buddy to get it changed and all indications are that it is very expensive to get done.

I took mine to two local battery replacement shops and they both took the back off and handed it back to me and said they couldn't help me. I gave up on it and bought a Garmin. YMMV.

Thanks for your response. I couldn't find any information on replacing the battery on the Golf Buddy II Platinum (white) so I took it upon myself to take the back off and remove the battery.
jmbernt
I just saw your post this morning. Once the screws have been removed, use a jewelers screwdriver to gently pry around the joint between the case and back cover and it will easily pop open.

Good on you Jim, that does help a lot. It makes this thread a great 'how to' for a battery change as well as a very balanced opinion on an alternative without an angry rant.
Rickochet
Most consumer devices that use lithium batteries have a built in protection board to keep them from overcharging and exploding and catching fire. That is why the company doesn't want the consumer tinkering with it. If you don't properly install the proper batteries you might have issues. I am surprised that GB even sold you the battery.
Gava
Good point Rickochet but didn't sound like it was an impossible mission based on Jim's experience.

I have the same unit with the same questions you had in 2016. Did you ever get an answer?
Feedback
I had the same problem , I sent for a battery and was sent the battery for the platinum which was cheap but different as there is harness across the original battery , so I cut the wires of the harness and trimmed them and tinned them with a soldering iron , I then tinned the contacts of the battery I was sent and then soldered the wires to contacts , Red to positive , Black to Neutral , white to middle , making sure none of the contacts are bridged and separate , then with a heat gun I melted a little blob of plastic over the connections to seal them , I plug it in and hey presto it worked and charged , I will Let you know how long it lasts after a few charges.
