Description: Altec Lansing Baby Boom Mini Speaker Teardown....

Steps:

1. Strip/Remove the silicon protector/case and get ready your prying tool.

2. Pry the steel mesh/screen from its sides (make sure not to pry too hard to avoid damaging the steel mesh).
3. Note: Don’t worry, bending the steel mesh is unavoidable, later on you can use pliers to straighten the mesh back into its original form.

4. Use your tweezers to remove/pull those 5 rubber seals encircled to reveal the screws.
5. Note: At this point, by performing this step, you are actively voiding the warranty, and the waterproofing will no longer work, so proceed at your own risk.

6. Use your phillips screwdriver (preferably magnetic) and unscrew all 5 screws.

7. Turn the speaker on the other side and carefully use your prying tool to open the back of the speaker's cover.
8. Note: Do not shove your prying tool too much to avoid hitting or damaging the circuit board inside.

9. This should reveal the back of the circuit board and the battery.
10. If you wish to proceed, using the phillips screwdriver, unscrew the 3 screws encircled and slowly lift the board from its place.
11. Note: Do not use too much force to lift the board as it could break, watch the charging port and the buttons if you are having a hard time lifting the board.

12. Congrats! you are done.
