JBL Clip 4 Speaker Disassembly

Clip 4 shells are clipped and glued for water resistance. Heat and plastic tools beat screwdrivers as chisels.

Approach

1. Remove carabiner/clip accessories.
2. Heat seam lightly.
3. Work a thin pick around the perimeter.
4. Disconnect battery before touching the Bluetooth board.

Safety notes

Puncturing a swollen pouch battery is a fire hazard—stop if the pack is domed.
