061384 061385 061386 063287 Battery Only Compatible with Bose Mini 1 Speaker, 21.46Wh Speaker Battery with No Connection-Cable and No Control-Board

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!!!

Installation was super easy and the new battery fit perfectly. No issues charging it up and now my Bose Mini has a new purpose in life. Only time will tell how well the battery holds up and lasts.

Brought my Bose SoundLink Mini 1 back to life and working as good as new. Easy install!

Update 3: I tried one more time, another battery that does not take the charge, it looks like they just put the deffective batteries back on the shelves and sell them again?Update 2: I gave the company another shot, what I received is a used worn out Bose branded battery, likely a customer returnUpdate: Replecement battery is not taking the charge either. Very frustrating. I need a new battery but wonder if it's even worth trying a third timeThe listing showed 80% 4 and 5 star reviews with a "often returned item". I was hoping to be one of the happy customers, unfortunately I was one of the unlucky one. The battery was dead on arrival and did not charge. Returning, hoping the next one is a good one

Fit well

Easy install with the handy tool included. Made my sound link work again instead of buying a new one, which isn’t the same.

I have two Bose mini 1 speakers that stopped working with a flashing red light after a couple of years of use. Although the supplier's notice states that if the speaker shows a flashing red light, it is a sign of circuit damage and that the battery should not be replaced. Despite this, and due to the cost of the battery, I decided to order one risking losing the money if it actually did not work. When I received the battery I easily replaced it with the Phillips screwdriver that it comes with and after a charging period of about three hours the speaker showed a steady green light, a sign that it was charged, so I put it into operation via Bluetooth and without connecting it to the power source without problems. I had already given up on the speakers but with this successful replacement I decided to order a second battery which I managed to change as well with excellent results.

It brought life back to my 12 year old Sony Mini 1 speaker.
