WJJZ1069 Posted March 15, 2016 Report Share Posted March 15, 2016 I recently dropped and NP1 on a shoot, and found a crack on the shell that exposes a bit of the battery near the connections. For now, I've carefully super glued the thing together, but I know that wont last. Is it possible for me to just buy another NP1 plastic shell to re-house the battery? Is that even possible to swap it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glen Deakin Posted March 15, 2016 Report Share Posted March 15, 2016 You could always find a dead one with a good shell and go Frankenstein. Swap out the intrrnal guts. Just be careful opening the good (well dead) battery shell. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Glen Deakin Posted March 15, 2016 Report Share Posted March 15, 2016 Check the usual suspects. Most have a battery recycling bin and sometimes you can find dead np1 batteries but with perfectly good shells. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Abe Dolinger Posted March 15, 2016 Report Share Posted March 15, 2016 I'd ask John Ritter. He runs an excellent battery refurbishing service and he might have what you need. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
