Using the tweezers, gently lift the tape off of the Power bridge connector. If a new unit comes with a new piece of tape, remove entirely, if not remove and place one corner lightly face down on a clean surface to be used again.
Heya, can you share the details for the battery?

Once free of the adhesive and connectors, remove the old battery from the device.
One step missing…. the end of the orange power connector (the end not attached to the battery) clips into a little socket which is barely visible. You can tell when it clips in by the feel and sound. Make sure that when you put the new battery in, you first clip the connector in before you stick the tape down.
Thank you @Gary Jacobson… that’s a pretty important step that’s missing. I greatly appreciated your comment noting it.
Also, folks should be aware that the battery you get from iFixIt might come fully discharged. So if your Oasis doesn’t power-on immediately (or do anything at all) after replacing the battery, don’t despair! Plug it in, let it charge for a while, and see if it comes back to life. Mine did (after I had taken it apart twice, reseated the battery and then assumed it was dead and ordered a new one from Amazon). Sigh!

Attach the new battery by inserting the end of the orange power connector (the end not attached to the battery) clips into a little socket on the device (it's barely visible). You can tell when it clips in by the feel and sound. Make sure that when you put the new battery in, you first clip the connector in before you stick the tape down.

Be Aware: Your new battery might not be charged, so it may not power-on immediately! After replacing the battery, plug your Oasis in and let the battery charge to full capacity.

Grate explanation. where can I find the battery? couldn’t find it anywhere
thanks
Hi, same comment: great and interesting but I can’t find the battery anywhere…
You can find the battery here
https://www.nextbatteries.com/products/a...
890 mAH Li-Polymer 3.7V 61.60 x 53.32 x 2.78mm
That is not the right battery. It doesn’t even look like the one in the pictures above.
That is a Kindle 8 battery, not an Oasis 8th Gen battery.
The battery you linked is NOT made for the Kindle Oasis, which is what this guide is for.
This is not the right battery for the device.
Careful, this is not the right battery - at least not the internal battery of the Oasis 2016.

The link given was the incorrect battery. Is it available anywhere?
Did you find one? I got mine on Amazon with a little kit for about $30. It seems to be working.
Is the Kindle Oasis likely to still be waterproof after battery replacement? I can sense a bit of a gap in the plastic where I dug it open.
I don't think the original Oasis was ever waterproof.
Please help me find the battery, mine is dead
Thanks for the heads up on that Nat Whilk,
Unfortunately for me the postage cost for delivery to Australia is $US132!!!!

Probably on account of the danger of transporting LiOn
I contacted Amazon and they could not provide me with either an Amazon link or a third party and when I sent them your link they told me to order it and that they would reimburse me the postage cost.
I asked them to give that to me in writing and they did, but I am a bit iffy about dropping $AU230 and praying that they keep up their end of the bargain.
How do you take the cover off the charging cover to replace the cover battery on this Oasis?
The batter can be found on ebay https://www.ebay.com/itm/294095223324?ss...
How about kindle oasis 2/3 replacement battery ?
I used this to change my kindle battery. Very helpful. I wasn't able to open the case with th plastic pry tool. After trying and not getting anywhere, I resorted to a very small flat screwdriver. This worked! Used the plastic tool the rest of the way.
You might be able to find the battery repair kit at https://newpower99.com/products/amazon-k...
Is the tape the main thing holding the battery connector in place? I couldn't feel any clicks when seating it. When I tried charging it I got the flashing yellow light indicating it wasn't charging. I can get that to stay solid yellow if I put my finger on the connector.
Did you break the connector when disconnecting the old battery? I just did the repair and it does click, albeit ever so quietly
Where can I buy this battery?

It would be really helpful if you could show more detail on how the backing is attached to the device, what the latching mechanism looks like in detail, and how to separate it. The technique in the photos might work on a device that has been opened a hundred times before, but on a new one, this guide doesn’t really help me to understand how to open the device.

I couldn't get the back cover off with the tool for the life of me. I wound up using a small flathead screwdriver and gently rubber hammering it in at an angle near the lower left of the raised panel, where it appears there aren't any components to damage. Once one clip is off the rest come off pretty easy with the tool.
