Re: KM A200 - recharging without losing setup?

Neil uses the logical way to remove and replace the battery when the A200's internal is kaput.

Thx to Neil i have the repair manual for this camera and used it to figure out how to replace the super tiny backup battery.

I have pictures of the steps and will post them when i get my son to setup a place to host the photos.

easy to get to, but much care needed to unsolder and resolder the little bugger.

Finding them is tricky too as the only place i found the battery was thru Radio Shack's ebay store.

out of the 4 i bought, 2 were already dead and would not take charge. The battery is about 1/4" wide and 1/16" thick which is too tiny in my opinion for the task.

7-8 bucks i think is what i paid.

I sold my A200's this year as i just never used them.............
