there is 3 generation of IXO screwdriver, so check the battery reference by yourself before ordering

Mine was a INR 18650-13P Samsung SDI 076

Internet says it's a 1300mAh 3.7 V Li-ion lithium ion battery

Soldering on the battery can be tricky: don't overheat the battery

► use flux!

► prefer a battery with leads
