its the battery install. it sucks! i really hate it, i just stripped out one of the four screws that hold the grip frame together. wow it seems that they would engineer a better way of getting to it! maybe ill get out the dremmel and go to work on that grip frame y'all think its a bad idea?

very good idea, but just incase you didnt know it will void your warrenty. Also make sure you dont get too close to the grip screw hole, and dont go over where the grip would cover

Remember it will void your warranty. :)

Make sure you don't cut so much that you can see into the grip frame even when the rubber grip is in place.

If you want to do it, start out just cutting a little at a time.

1. How often do you actually need to change the battery? Not very often.

2. How long does it take to swap the battery? A few minutes.

3. Is it worth voiding your warranty to make it easier to change the battery, when you don't have to do it very often? No.
