How to Change a Battery in a Blink Doorbell
I recently had to change the battery in my Blink doorbell, and I was surprised at how easy it was. I’m going to share the steps with you so that you can do it yourself in just a few minutes.
Before you start, make sure that you have a new CR123A battery. These batteries are available at most hardware stores and online retailers.
Step 1: Remove the Front Plate
The first step is to remove the front plate of your Blink doorbell. To do this, simply use a screwdriver to unscrew the two screws that are located at the bottom of the plate.
Once you have removed the screws, you can gently pull the front plate off of the doorbell. Be careful not to pull too hard, as you don’t want to damage the wires.
Step 2: Remove the Battery Cover
Once you have removed the front plate, you will see the battery cover. The battery cover is held in place by two screws. Use a screwdriver to remove the screws and then lift the battery cover off of the doorbell.
Step 3: Replace the Battery
Now you can replace the old battery with the new one. Make sure that the positive (+) and negative (-) terminals of the battery are facing the correct way.
Step 4: Put Everything Back Together
Once you have replaced the battery, you can put everything back together. First, place the battery cover back on the doorbell and secure it with the screws.
Then, put the front plate back on the doorbell and secure it with the screws. That’s it! You have now successfully replaced the battery in your Blink doorbell.
