Replacement Battery for Vision W

[Nekazoo]

I have search Hi and Low for a NEW battery for my Zen Vision W.
Anyone know if you can buy a Creative Vision Battery CPA-BA0002 and remove the four screws and install it on the Vision W back cover? There seems to be all kinds of CPA-BA0002 available but they only have 4 latching slots and the W has 6 slots for the connection???? Or do you know where you can buy a W battery all the sites listing them say "out of stock" and I have been to at least 50.

I was told by a supplier that you can remove the battery from a Creative Zen Vision back plate by removing the four screws and carefully reattach it to a Vision W back Plate the same way...Does anyone know for sure if this will work. There are lots of Creative Vision (no w) batteries for sale.

Nekazoo,

There's a similar thread:

I used a battery for a Creative Zen Vision. Had to make two additional holes in the new battery. Been more than a year. Still works, though the battery is starting to act up now. I plan to redo it; hopefully batteries for Creative Zen Vision is still available.

Hope this helps.

Dont Do IT! Do not cut your plastic housings!
Buy a Zen Vision battery. Take it out of the housing and replace the battery with your Vision W.
If anybody needs instructions I can send them to you.
If I could figure out how to post photos I would put them up for you.

The moderator should leave this post up because hundreds of people are in the same boat.
