Ah! The voice of experience; reassuring even when it only confirms what 
we already suspect is the disappointing truth. ;) Thanks, I was afraid 
it was purely a pry-and-pray job. Those extrusion-point-looking 
depressions in the outside casing that I originally thought were screw 
heads were the biggest giveaway, I assume there are support structures 
for the internals opposite those? (Rhetorical question.)

I tend to be a visual thinker, I'll feel infinitely better about this if 
I just have a mental picture of the insides and what I'm going to be 
poking at before I try to "force" (scary word) the casing. Do you 
perhaps have / could you take pictures of an opened one to share, 
assuming it's not already glued back together? (PLEASE don't crack it 
open again just to take photos for me. I'm just being paranoid, the 
battery I'm planning to work on _is_/ /a completely-useless-as-is spare 
anyway, if I break it while trying this then I'll have my own exploded 
model to guide me in working on the other one.)  ;)

Thanks,
  -FeRD

The batterycase is glued. I opened my battery case with an sharp knife on the 
sides. Force is also required.
If your work is finished, you can glue the 2 parts together.

Regards Steffen, waiting for accu-cells.
