This battery lasts the life of the router under the operating environmental conditions specified for the router, and is not field-replaceable.
But who determines its lifespan?
Knowing there is a battery set to fail and I can’t simply replace it makes me physically uncomfortable. Enough so that I’d rather it not have RTC.
Thanks Cisco.
Maybe. It’s a thin looking clip and not soldered to the board very strong. Prolly be OK if op can remove the battery without the clip breaking from the board. I’m guessing it will come off when op tries to pry those spot welds off the battery.
Oh, re-soldering to the board? Absolutely. Re-soldering to the battery? Nah.
Yeah. The battery could just get some pressure and a little piece of tape to hold it in place.
