Title

Description

🚩 In this video I'm showing you how to disassemble and repair an Index controller with a dead battery.
🚩 Since Valve refused to help me with repair or replacement, and since I just think it's wasteful to spend 270 euros to buy a new controller when you can get a new battery for 10 euros   delivery, I decided to make a guide for all folks who have been using Index Controller for longer than 2 years, and for whom the battery has died.
🚩 You need minimal skills in disassembly and soldering for this repair. Try to find a 3.8v battery, ideally with a thermistor (white wire) so your controller knows when the battery is fully charged.
🚩 This seller on Aliexpress sells the best compatible batteries, and he also promised they'll add 3-pin batteries in the future. Maybe they'll also adjust capacity and size to match the original battery better - I've sent them pinning and sizes: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/33035659698.html 
🚩 My thread at Reddit where I disassemble the original controller I repaired first: https://www.reddit.com/r/ValveIndex/comments/vz0s3a/unwrapping_index_controller_battery_for_potential/
