061384 061385 061386 063287 Battery Only Fit for Bose Mini 1 Speaker, 7.4V 21.46Wh Speaker Battery with No Connection Cable and No Control Board (Not Compatible with Mini-2 and Other Models)

I've had the amazing Bose Mini speaker for a number of years now, but in recent months the battery life was declining more and more.I thought I'd need to send the unit back to Bose for repair -- or, more likely, see if Bose gave me a price break on a refurbished unit.Imagine my surprise when I googled "How to replace Bose Mini battery" and found a YouTube video showing a middle-aged guy changing out the battery himself as easy as pie.God Bless Bose! The rubber flap on the speaker's bottom peels off easily from one end, and voila, there's the battery right there, held in place by four screws!Now mind you, those four screws are some of the proprietary -- or at least uncommon -- kind manufacturers employ to thwart unauthorized product tinkering.But darned if the battery the guy said he bought from Amazon didn't even include the special screwdriver needed for those weirdo screws.As advertised, swapping out the old for the new battery was a piece of cake, taking less than five minutes. The only difficulty I encountered was getting one or two of the venerable screws to start turning from their years in locked position, but gripping the little screwdriver handle with pliers and turning did the trick.The new battery clicked right into place. I charged it up fully for a few hours, and wow, is the battery working like a champ! The old battery needed a charge after just five days of 15-30-minute use a day, but the new one still hasn't triggered the "low charge" light after some twelve days as I write this.All I can say is, I wish I could revive other items of my favorite gear as easily and effectively!Two thumbs up!!!

Easy installation and works perfect. Saved a 15 year old Bose! Inexpensive and totally worth it.

I bought this in 2019 and it has worked great for 6 years. The power/volume level is just as good if not better than the original. The battery lasts as long or longer than the original. Super easy to install. I loved it so much, I just ordered a second one.

Update 3: I tried one more time, another battery that does not take the charge, it looks like they just put the deffective batteries back on the shelves and sell them again?Update 2: I gave the company another shot, what I received is a used worn out Bose branded battery, likely a customer returnUpdate: Replecement battery is not taking the charge either. Very frustrating. I need a new battery but wonder if it's even worth trying a third timeThe listing showed 80% 4 and 5 star reviews with a "often returned item". I was hoping to be one of the happy customers, unfortunately I was one of the unlucky one. The battery was dead on arrival and did not charge. Returning, hoping the next one is a good one

This Battery is a decent replacemnt. It works as intended and gave a new life to my old bose mini. As for the capacity, they are claiming that this is higher than the OEM (original battery), this is a little exagerated. The original battery lasted longer than this when it was new. There is really no other battery replacement option out there but this one, as this speaker is more than 10yrs old and all the original replacement parts are nom exixtent.This Battery lasted about 2 days on continuous use before it died, which i guess is better then the 10yr old battery that would only last a few hrs.The build quality and battery fitment is VERY GOOD. I've seen a few reviews on here having issues with the rubber boot not fitting correctly after instaling this battery. Its bc they did not look at the diescription fitment. It clearly list the models of batteries and it clearly says THIS battery is only for bose mini sounlink I (THE 1ST GEN). AS long as the battery model you are replacing this matches the one they have listed then everything it WILL FIT PERFECTLY like a glove even the rubber boot. SEE MY PIC ABOVE

You likely already know that the Bose SoundLink Mini is a very good-sounding personal speaker built to last many years! Sadly, rechargeable batteries eventually wear out. This replacement battery will restore your Bose SoundLink Mini’s ability to perform like new. Strong and steady hands are needed to remove and replace the four screws that secure the battery in place. Once the new battery is in place and the screws are completely and securely screwed in using the supplied tool, the silicone battery compartment cover will snap back into place easily.Update: I bought two of these replacement batteries, which are rated at 2900 mAh. The original batterie were rated at 2330 mAh meaning that they have higher energy capacity than the originals. Thus far the performance of the replacement batteries is stellar!

My 1st gen Bose Soundlink Mini was as good as dead because the battery was totally dead and the speaker was turning itself off after playing for 10-15 minutes (even when power supple was plugged into).Bose does not provide option to get the battery replaced anymore.I bought this battery after going through reviews on many of the 3rd party batteries, and even then I was a bit sceptical about its fitment and compatibility.But this one fits perfect to the "t".Getting charged within standard time, charge indicator on speaker changing to green after getting fully charged. Speaker continues to play at full volume for over 2hrs, did not get the time to check playback time for a full charge. I don't even care, as it plays more than 2hrs straight, and that's all that I need.

Super happy, my 8 yr old Bose was not connecting to Bluetooth, cutting out and eventually not holding a charge. This battery gave it a new life. Easy to install, they supplied the mini screwdriver- very nice. Now I get about 15 hrs of play. Charge quick. Best of all connects to BT immediately. Recommend, saved me $200 + on a new speaker
