Max Lumi battery replacement

[Arkadius]

Hi all,

It seems like the condition of my battery has brutally degraded.
Not so long ago, my device used to last for one week (in use 5-6 hours per day).
It might have gone down to 3-4 days, but since this week, the battery empties in just a few hours (approx 10% per hour, even in standby mode!), and it dies suddenly when the battery still displays ~15% remaining.
In short, my Max Lumi is now hardly usable, which is quite unacceptable for a device bought 1.5 years ago.

I'm using this device absolutely every day for work, so sending it back to have it repaired is likely to cost me 2 weeks, which I can't afford.
Therefore, I thought about replacing the battery myself. However, I couldn't find any video/topic about the Max Lumi. Maybe all people who tried just broke the device...

TL;DR:

• Is there any advice/picture/instruction on how to take the Max Lumi apart without breaking it, given that there are no mounting screws in this model?
• Which battery model should I order?

Hi,
I don't have a Lumi, just a Max 2, and changed its battery one year ago. You may find some help on this thread :

The Lumi is problaby not very different from the Max 2.
Good luck
