Hello,
I am looking for a battery replacement for the Beocom 5 telephone. I refuse to get it repaired by B&O's service in NY as there is no attention to detail or customer service.
If I can find a battery I can get a tech to fix it.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Mail it to Atlantic Systems in Hanover, MA. B&O authorized and they charge much less than the NYC repair centers.
Thanks for your help. Anyway to identify the battery and find one?
The battery and the back of the telefoon is one piece.
I assume that the battery can be removed and replaced.......if not, is the two piece replacement available. Sounds like I may be fighting a losing battle.
The back cover and battery are one piece. I don't know if you can buy this but you'd need to upgrade your Beoworld membership to gain access to the service manual as well.
I replaced my cordless B&O phones a long time ago with a $50 VTech one from Best Buy, which is superior in just about every imaginable way.
You are screwed. I sent mine to Boston B&O, as I couldn't figure out how or get the Li-ion 730 mA batteries/ backs. After non in house repair and alleged new batteries, they still die after 22 min. of use off the power source. They also have to be reset after a storm, as they power off. Want to buy 4 cheap? I plan to take MediaBob's advice.
You need tool 3459463 and back with battery 3160583. Instructions are on p.21-3 of service manual.
