Battery Only Compatible with Bose Soundlink Mini 1 Speaker Model 061384 061385 061386 【Not Fit Mini2/Gen2】

I've had the amazing Bose Mini speaker for a number of years now, but in recent months the battery life was declining more and more.I thought I'd need to send the unit back to Bose for repair -- or, more likely, see if Bose gave me a price break on a refurbished unit.Imagine my surprise when I googled "How to replace Bose Mini battery" and found a YouTube video showing a middle-aged guy changing out the battery himself as easy as pie.God Bless Bose! The rubber flap on the speaker's bottom peels off easily from one end, and voila, there's the battery right there, held in place by four screws!Now mind you, those four screws are some of the proprietary -- or at least uncommon -- kind manufacturers employ to thwart unauthorized product tinkering.But darned if the battery the guy said he bought from Amazon didn't even include the special screwdriver needed for those weirdo screws.As advertised, swapping out the old for the new battery was a piece of cake, taking less than five minutes. The only difficulty I encountered was getting one or two of the venerable screws to start turning from their years in locked position, but gripping the little screwdriver handle with pliers and turning did the trick.The new battery clicked right into place. I charged it up fully for a few hours, and wow, is the battery working like a champ! The old battery needed a charge after just five days of 15-30-minute use a day, but the new one still hasn't triggered the "low charge" light after some twelve days as I write this.All I can say is, I wish I could revive other items of my favorite gear as easily and effectively!Two thumbs up!!!

This battery has a designated purpose. It is to replace the battery in a BOSE SoundLink Mini 1st generation. I took a chance buying it after not using my Mini for years but was not willing to throw it away. I was persuaded to make the purchase after a video review whose main purpose stated to "not throw it away". The included instructions were easy to follow plus they provided the driver for the mounting screws. After charging, the Mini is back. Perhaps a new bluetooth speaker would be better but I saved some cash. Plus I always liked the size and sound of the Mini. I am glad I made this purchase.

So far so good! Fit, worked, charged....easy peasy, let's see how it goes. No complaints yet.

Charged battery to full before first use. Used once or twice a week for about a hour or so and recharged after every use. Sometimes used while plugged in, sometimes not. Battery life was not stellar as the devices needed to be recharged after a hour or so of use while not plugged in. Bought in January, completely dead in June, will not recharge. Not worth it.

Simple replacement. Just four small screws and they send the torx driver with the battery. Perfect fit and charged to 100% in about two hours. Haven’t used yet so not sure about performance, but I’m betting it will work fine. If so, it’s a five star.

This battery fit and worked perfectly for my Bose Mini as described in the item details. Easy to install with the provided screwdriver.

Perfect fix for my Bose! I can use it again! Thanks for including the screwdriver.
