    • De-solder the old battery circuit from the old battery.

    • You will need this circuit, so be careful not to damage it!

    • De-solder the battery circuit that comes with the new cell, and solder the battery circuit from the old ring battery to the new battery. This will convert your new cell to a cell compatible with the Ring's charging circuitry.

    • Make sure to observe polarities. The solder pad with the red wire next to it goes to the '+' poll on the battery, and the solder pad with the black wire goes to the '-' poll on the battery.

This guide was very helpful for me and allowed me to save my Ring Pro. The only thing I would say it is missing is a better description of how to get the black connectors off the board (two of the orange circles). They are extremely fragile and must be dealt with carefully. The first one I removed shattered and cost me additional work during the reassembly. The important part I learn is to not apply any force to wires themselves (don’t lift from the cabled as described). I found the best way to get the connector off the board is with a very small knife slid under the connector. I followed underneath the wires with the blade to slide it under the connector. Once the blade is under the connector you can gently pry it up and it will be reusable. lifting from the wires caused my connector to fall apart.

This is the battery worked for me. basically you are looking for a 200mAh 3.7v cell.

Hi, glad this fixed the issue for you. I will try to fix the article with better instructions on removal of the connectors. I do believe, that using a knife could be dangerous.. electrically speaking. Believe it or not, the ring is still quite active when it appears dead. The battery in mine still had 3.5v on it. When the unit gets below 3.8, it cuts off, but still has plenty of power. If you use a knife, it will short the pins on the connectors and possibly destroy the electronics, especially if the battery hasn’t been unplugged. I do believe that there is a better way than pulling on the wires though.

Just edited, and I used your method, but used the plastic spudger instead of the knife.

I've found the old battery type is: FT60205P/300mAh 1,14Wh 3,8V 3C.

Was your's also this type? Because u use for the new battery a 3,7V with a capacity of 200mAh.

Hi Hendry,

The old battery from my Ring was also 300mAh 3.7V. The reason I replaced it with the 200mAh is I couldn’t find a 300mAh battery small enough to fit at the time of replacement. 200mAh or even 100mAh would probably do just as good since the ring is only powered for about 3 seconds on battery (while the circuit to the door bell chime is completed).

Hendry,

Did you find the exact battery that would fit in the ring pro?
