- How many keywords can I cram into the title today, ey? Anyway, I wanted to replace the battery in my Corsair Void headset, preferably with a bigger one. Here's how that went.

Great video! Thanks! I have this headset and it worked really well for over two years but a couple of weeks ago the battery life dropped suddenly and dramatically down to about 20 minutes. I ordered my battery before I saw this video so I probably could have gone bigger but opted for a 1400 which the article said had been used to swap out a defective battery in this headset, so I played it safe and went for the same. Then I googled how to do it and your video was top of the list and I needed nothing else. £15 on the battery or thereabouts - saved me a lot of money on unnecessarily replacing the headset. So thanks again! Very informative!
My Corsair Void Pro Wireless RGB head set died on me all of the sudden. I bought it refurbished 8 months ago paying only $50 on amazon. A new one would have cost me $99 and the refurbished were no longer available. Following your guide, i purchased a precision screw driver for set $12 and a 3.7v Lithium Ion Battery 1400mAh for $14. It works brilliantly! You saved me over $70 and I learned a valuable skill! God Bless! thank You!
My refurbished one has lasted 5years no issues until now with battery
This was helpful - thank you!
My battery was soooo inflated that I almost couldn't get the screws out due to the pressure. It was about 3 times thicker than the one you took out in your video. Crazy to think a chemical reaction like that was happening right next to my right ear. lol.
Thanks again!
same here
Absolutely amazing video, the part where you bring up the 3rd pin being a thermistor is great!
My battery had swollen so much it broke the outer shell, this video was a great help in getting that out and replaced. Thanks for the vid!
Does iCue still report the % of your new battery
2023.
The battery life of my hearing aids is no longer optimal, and this video has made it clear to me that I can replace it and even with a higher capacity one.
Thank you very much for the video, all excellently well explained and detailed.
Thanks for the vid! Been noticing a serious dropoff in batt life the last few months. Ebay searched a "Corsair Void Wireless Battery" and found a 1500mah one for ~20CDN. Worked a treat!
*thank u bro, I found the same battery, it I hope it work fine*
I came across you channel by accident but i'm glad I did as after watching this video I have confirmed that my Corsair Dark Core RGB wireless mouse has a swollen battery and I now have a replacement battery on order on eBay.
I'm very knowledgeable with tech but I never thought of a swollen battery being the problem. I just wish I found your channel before I ordered a new wireless mouse.
I have now subscribed to your channel as your content is very interesting and helpful!
Thanks for that great turtorial. Now i fixed my Headphone and they works. Thanks to you.
Greetings from Germany
This will probably save me a fortune!
I got to learn more in self repair!
Thanks 🙏 managed to change my battery in ten mins because of your guidance. Brilliant.
whats the pin zide? for connector: 1.0mm 1.25mm 1.5mm 2.0mm 2.54mm?
1.25mm
You probably don't need this anymore, but I figured for anyone looking at this now they might
@@MickSkitz thank you sir
@@MickSkitz Cheers! ;)
This might be out of date, but the new one is exactly the same on the inside. Your video helped me with mine and I got a 1950mah battery for it. Works great. Had to fandangle a bit to get it in but it works fine now and last 20 hours lol
Great video, I learned a lot! I hope to put the knowledge to good use upgrading the batteries for both my mouse and headset!
Fantastic video. I was going to buy a new pair then thought 'I bet the batteries are just lipo' and found your video. I'm going to get on this.
This was great. More than just a how to video. I used this as reference to replacing the battery in my HS70s. Cheers!
Which battery did you buy? my battery is dead 😓😓
Hi, great vid, although ive only had my Void a short time this vid is well worth a bookmark for the future.....nice job, thx
This vid just saved me buying a new headset. Followed it to the letter (my soldering is shocking) and now my Corsair Void headset is as good as new. It's a shame I can only 'like' the vid!!
Lovely. Good video and appreciated, I mean it is not rocket science, but it always handy to have someone do a tear down and instructional before going in.
I ended up going for a 1400Mah battery from Amazon. Had the three wires and a plug fitted and next day delivery, the downside being that it cost £15. Still less than purchasing a new headset.... now if only Corsair would fix iCue :)
i've fixed my headset with a 803048 1500mah from amazon since 1year now and still work perfectly thx for this usefull video. The only things you will need to do if you buy the battery i tell is cut some plastic to let the connector out
You rock! for 13.00 USD my headphones are BETTER than new. the inside screws on the battery compartment were quite cheap and difficult to get out. AND my factory battery was swelled beyond belief.....
So THANK YOU kindly
I only wanted to say thx, i replaced my battery today and this 4 years old fine HeadSet will work again for some years now (it was a gift from my girlfriend btw)
Thank you very very much!!!
Got yourself a new sub here, great content. Just the way I like it
Just stopping buy to say I used this video to upgrade / replace a defective battery in my headset. Great guide. I ended up using a 1500 battery and it works great. Had to toss the plastic shell though. I just used some electrical tape in a loop to secure the backside of the battery, and then another strip over the top to really make sure it was safe.
Edit: This will prevent ICUE from recognizing your battery life, so if that is something that is important to you, I wouldn't know how to correct that. Sorry.
Is the battery you bought a two-wire battery?
Thanks for this! Just did mine, the battery was insanely puffed up, over double in size.
Thankyou very much for your most informative lesson :) New battery installed all fine. First time didnt work cos noob me had a dry joint or for whatever reason red wire wasnt making contact. /bow
Thanks matte for measuring and help with finding alternative battery for headphones. After 3 years my battery is dead (I hope it is battery :-)). So I will order the same one as you.
Thank u so much guys! You helped me so much! My Headset died in 3 Sec. so i am so happy. Ly all
Yeah mine is dying in seconds as well. Will be doing this.
I appreciate this video. I think i'm about to replace my Void Pro battery. I took it out and its not swollen, but it doesn't appear to be holding its charge very long. Thanks for the information.
Awesome job! Very entertaining. I loved that headset as well and when I attempted what you did, I botched my headset and had to buy a pair of Corsair HS70s (Which are also great aside from the atrocious peeeeee-yu leather) Cheers
I have the same headset and the battery has gone Kaput on me. I am not very savvy when it comes to stuff like this. Thanks for the walkthrough. New battery Should be here tomorrow :D
Just dropped in to say thanks as I've now replaced my failing headset battery. Mine wouldn't even last 5mins before crapping out. Have to say the state of the battery when I removed mine was shocking, never seen something so bad.
Very well explained! Worked perfectly for me. Thanks a lot :)
superb video i have gone from an hour or less to 4 days on and off,thanks
my corsair headphones have to have a charger all the time every time I plug the charger out then it switches of also it makes random noises if I move slightly is the battery or is the USB charger it isn't the same one that was given to me? Thank you
awesome video!!! thank you for this! have the same issue atm.
my battery survived for 2 years but now it dies pretty fast in about 3-4h..
i was always careful to not use rgb and always wait until its fully dies and then charge it fully and never leave the cable in when its charged... but i guess batteries are not forever! :P
@@Adamant_IT well took about this much time to get a new battery lol... couldnt order it from ebay from where i live sadly. i just installed it and i was wondering should i charge it the same way as if the headset would be new (overnight kinda) or should i just go about until its fully charged (indicated by the green light). would it matter with a replacement battery? you know like first time charge?
Thanks for making this video. I had a similar problem except my headphones only last about 4 to 5 hours. Since I live stream that was annoying. Ordered the 50x40x50.
Here is a link to the battery I ordered. www.aliexpress.com/snapshot/0.html?spm=a2g0s.9042647.6.2.1f894c4d3NCUeL&orderId=104899357111126&productId=32833362713
my headphones only ever last 4-5 minutes :(
in the UK. i just did this and it worked juist fine. Thanks
Nice video, thanks for that ! I'm gonna try it !
thanks! my 3yeard void pro is not working well because of battery issue. I will try here. thanks for kind info about everything I should buy.
can i use one li-ion battery like the default? its cheaper than lipo in brazil :/
On the right side headphone I pulled off the 2 wires connecting the inner right side to the main battery. I know I need to connect them back, but they had a glue like adhesive holding them on. Is this a type of conductive glue I need, or can I solder the wires.
TO VOID ELITE RGB WIRELESS OWNERS:
Our battery compartment is the EXACT same as the regular void's shown in the video, and the void pro's in the comments!
Ordering a 2000mAh 3-pin JST 103450 on payday bcuz screw this 10 hours battery life. Kinda sad that corsair has the AUDACITY to call this "elite" when it's the same freaking headset and internals, just a tweak to the software for larger frequency range.
Our battery, however is a 553450 code, not the 523450 shown in the video. The capacity is the same.
Fantastic walk-through but I have a question about the tools used. Can you share the model/part number of your mini heat gun? The heat gun I have is for much bigger work and not conducive to work like this. Thanks.
My battery starts beeping as soon as I take the charging cable out, I am going to take a look at replacing it, so thanks for this video.
Your videos are very helpful! I have a Logitech G533 headset and the batteries are dead. I only have access to 2 wire Lipo batteries, how exactly do I wire the resistor to the battery for it to work? Appreciate your help!
Hey, thanks for the video. Do you think that a battery with 50x40x4mm will fit?
I finally received my new battery :) I didn't find the mentioned larger 3-Pin version anymore, only with original dimension. So I went for a (nominal) 1800mAh 604050 lipo. It PERFECTLY FITS into the black plastic retention bracket. The part with the resistor works, too. I took 9,6k from the scrap. Re-assembling the right side works best when you take both half-shells in one hand and move the ear-side part with your thumb until the screw-holes overlap. When doing it like in the video, it might mistakenly feel like there is something stuck in between.
Hi dude how did you do that with the resistor?
Thanks, this helped me remove a bulging battery.
Bought a two wire 803450 in error but I managed to remove the mini board from the old battery and attach to the new battery,now three wires are connected and works fine
I got the same problem, bought a two wire and have no idea what to to next, can you show me how could you remove the board from the 3 wire and attach it to the 2 wire?!
hey i'm trying to buy a battery but since i don't solder I'm buying a batter with the plug but i don't know what size plug it should be. there are options for 1mm/1.25mm/1.5mm/2mm/2.54mm , do you know which one? Thanks!!
This video helped me a great deal. Thank you.
A question tho, after changing battery, did the percentage indicator on iCue software reflect the new one? Mine seems like the percentage drains just as like the old battery.
Mine seems to work okay, although I don't run iCue in the background, so couldn't really say for sure. I've seen mixed results in the comments with some people having Meh results and some people having brilliant results - so I think your mileage may vary.
There's always a possibility that the lipo cell you buy is a duff one, or just not very good, but thankfully they're cheap enough that if it really doesn't work, you can try a different one.
did you ever sort this out? I replaced the battery, but the percentage drains just as fast as before
Does the kind of tape you use to hold in the battery matter? Or just any kind of double sided will do?
thanks to your video I fixed my headset kudos mate
Hi great video but you don't mention the 3-pin size - on ebay they have 1mm, 1.25mm, 1.5mm and so on, do you know which one we should be looking at?
Is the white wire necessary? In my country I can only get with 2 red and black wires, i speak spanish sry for my bad english..
Out of curious, what is that 3 pins JST connector called exacly? I need it for a similar project but can't find the part needed.
What happens if you add a larger cell, and that puffs up, too? Will that cause damage to the unit or the wearer?
great video!! i just replaced my battery. But while i replaced the battery the speaker came undone. Now the right side does'
nt work. Any tip on how to reconnect is?
nice just replaced mine while watching thanks dude
I have a Corsair void pro wireless. Had it for a while now great headset, but recently the hinge for the mic arm is coming loose and the mic keeps falling to the lowest point at random. Any idea how i can fix that? Is there just a screw i can tighten if i open it up?
Just remove the old pcb from the dead battery and put it on the new battery. Very useful video i have just received my headset.
Idk how old are your void pro, but mine are like 2-3 years, it's the same version as you have but in yellow. The point is, how do you manage to have in that condition the earpads? The """leather""" of mine is completly peeled.
I have been trying to buy a new pair (not the official one bc 10$ for two earpads seems fine, but 10$ earpad + 10$ postage it's too much), and I haven't found the right size ones, all of the chinesse ones are too small.
Quick tip, if you only have a jewelers screw driver for little screws like these on any project take a long strip of duct tape and wrap around the handle of screw driver until it's thick as hell then it's easy.
Just got one of these headsets free from a friend of mine he complained on the battery being bad on it & went with a wired headset instead.
I might take the battery out entirely if it doesn't seem too last anywhere close too at least 2 hours, gonna let it charge over night as i had too take off the earmuffs & cleaned them out first with dishsoap & hot water, it ended up removing some of the fake leather but id rather have a clean headset on my head a bit later then putting them on my head tonight.
Extend the wires & make a hole too put the battery on the outside, maybe a 18650 cell might work for that, though i do have a few 3 wire batteries that are from an old 10 inch tablet laying around i think.
Hello there. I hope you can have a teardown and battery replacement tutorial for HyperX Cloud Flight as well.
Hello, greetings from Colombia, I wanted to ask. I couldn't get 3-line batteries like red, black and white; but only 2 red and black lines. In this case, could you make some kind of video explaining how to make this adaptation? Thank you.
just fixed my steelseries sensei raw had for 7 years cord broke cut off bad part patched it back in and bam! now that im on a roll! this is next. mouse works fine headset is next on the list. fixed 360 controller last week. spring fixing.
Would any of you happen to know if theres a way to unbrick this headset?
My little brother plugged them into a socket to charge and put it into pairing mode while doing so, it didnt charge at all and seems to have gone completely flat while still in pairing mode.
Plugged it into my pc and it cant find it, also none of the lights come on at all
Any ideas?
I used two 1000mah batteries that don't have the white communication wire, so therefore i cannot see the battery level and they probably won't shut down with low battery (maybe damaging the battery?), do i need to swap bms from the old battery onto the new one?
I would think this is the same procedure I need to follow for the HyperX cloud flights?
pretty old i know, but in case you see this...how do i wire the 10k resistor in? i tried from the white line in the plug in the headphones, to the 10k resistor, then off to the ground coming off the battery. the headset is acting weird still, lots of weird flashes on the LED. im not sure if its working properly.
Great video, thanks
After doing this over a year ago, how is it holding up charge wise?
Man, I wish I had found your video last night. My new battery came in yesterday and while attempting to replace the old one, the little white wire connected to the ear-cup tore away from the solder joint. I borrowed an old soldering iron from my dad but I've never done it before. Ugh, if only I had know how short the wires were and how easily they can come undone.
Question: I don't have any solder with the gun, unfortunately, but there is quite a bit of it on the joint where the wire was; is it possible to heat up that existing solder on the joint and just re-join the wire while the solder is soft?
Hope to hear from you and thanks for the vid!
@@Adamant_IT Yeah, I ended up trying it last night but no cigar. I couldn't get the wire to stick. I'm not even sure if I stripped it correctly; those wires are freaking tiny. Here's hoping I didn't ruin anything completely by re-attempting it multiple times, heh.
I'll probably see about getting one of those Soldering kits that comes with everything needed and try again at some point. For now, I gave in and ordered another set (the new version of the same one). Always kind of wanted the black one anyway. I mean, aside from the battery being lousy, it's the most durable wireless gaming headset I've found and the only one that hasn't broken at the hinges due to my big head, lol. Maybe once the battery in the new set dies (which will probably be in about the same amount of time, going by reviews, sigh...) I can try to replace the battery again--this time being extremely meticulous about not pulling on the wires.
By the way, in case you need another replacement at some point, I found one that doesn't require the wire fusing (it's pretty small and seems to fit fine from what I can tell): www.ebay.com/itm/AOTU-1500mAh-Replacement-Battery-for-Infant-Optics-DXR-8-Video-Baby-Monitors/123529468658?epid=850293912&hash=item1cc2ee1af2:g:7LsAAOSwNe9cCSyR:sc:ShippingMethodExpress!36330!US!-1
Thanks for the help!
What is the size of the connector of the 3 pins?
Do you have to worry about a thicker battery puffing up over time? Would that cause an issue with it already being a snug fit?
@@Adamant_IT Awesome thank you. I'm looking for a replacement for my corsair currently. Can't seem to find the one you recommended in your video. I'm sure I'll find something similar and give it a go.
Thx for the video!
Do you know if the Corsair Void Pro version is the same battery?
so thanks to this video i fixed my headset the battery was terrible am talking as soon as you unplugged it from its charger it will immediately tell me that the battery is low. so i looked around to see if there were anyone else with this issue. and lucky this channel came to my search in youtube. i did follow the steps and recommendation he gave so i took the best one and chose the 2000mah battery if i remember correctly its a 103450 3.7v 2000mah and this new battery gave me more hours of gaming. and am still going to test over the weekend to see how well it does but the old battery that came in these headsets where horrible. whether you are using the new model or older model like mine and in the video, i recommend replacing the battery regardless, unless corsair fixed this issue with their new model.
is your battery the two pin version? I've got that one but I'm not sure if I need to add a 10k resistor or not
@@xCheatah no mine came with 3 wires if yours didn't adding the 10k is the only option u got the headset will never charge the battery
Man the quality of this video is great. Is there any risk of using too thick of a battery and it exploding because it is too tight against the plastic frame?
It won't explode, but the ear piece won't screw back together properly - you'll break the screw holes trying to tighten it up if the cell is too thick.
My headset displays all the symptoms of a worn out battery, but I opened my headset up and the battery isn't "swollen" at all. Is there still a point in ordering a replacement battery, or is there something else fishy going on? Thanks
So I did this and it works perfectly and the battery lasted so much longer than my old one did. However, after the charge died, it no longer recharges and I can only use my headset when its plugged in. Any ideas?
So in the midst of trying to replace the battery the PCB came away from the speaker and now it's broke. Any suggestions on what I can do with that? Was going to try to take the glue off and see what was underneath and if I could re-wire the pcb on the headset but open to suggestions. at 18:33 is the pcb i'm talking about.
@@Adamant_IT Yea it actually broke the traces of the PCB that go through into the speaker part. At the back of the PCB there are traces that go through a hole in the plastic. I tried prying the speaker off but it's glued in pretty good. If I feel adventurous I might dremel it open and see. I ended up finding a set of headphones on ebay for parts so hopefully I'll have luck with one of the right speakers working. In the past I have also had one of these headphones catch on fire/start smoking from the charge port. The video should be in my channel if you're interested.
I followed this tutorial and upgraded the battery to a 3.7V 2000mAh Lipo Battery Rechargeable 103450 JST 3pin 1.0/1.25/1.5/2.0/2.5 plug. (update: Mine was the 1.0mm. Wonder if I seated the pins wrong??) The first issue I ran into was the plug was not the correct size, so I had to loosen the pins and replace the plug with the one from the old battery. Not very fun. Then I found that actually this battery is too fat to fit in so I had to lay it horizontally not vertically as the other battery was arranged. This way the driver Magnet did not sit directly on the battery. I was not able to close the earphone as before, but I did screw it down until it held in place. When I wear the headset I cant tell that it is protruding. However my biggest problem is that when I am charging the headset it will not fully charge. After hours of charging (5hrs), the battery shows that it is 88% charged, no matter how long it is plugged in. @adamantIT do you know why this might be? It is worth mentioning that I have the Void Pro Wireless headset. I seems to be a model newer than the ones in this video. I can answer any question and share my experiences on my reddit if anyone would like more in formation (Sono81). Or you can contact me by replying to this comment.
I know I am late, but I just recieved a 2000mAh 103450 and I plugged it in, but I doesn't charge and I don't get any feedback whatsoever, did you guys have to do something else than plugging it in?
I have this headset, and unfortunately I was adjusting the mic arm from the inside and the driver cables both got torn out... I'm not sure how to and even if it is possible to reconnect those cables but I would appreciate any tips for advice.
Instead of cutting the wires, i soldered the cables directly on the Protection Circuit (PCB). It is even possible to unsolder the protection circuit from the LiPo battery and attach it to the new battery. (be very careful, avoid short circuits) But be aware, that handling LiPo batteries is always a risk (danger of fire or explosion), you need to know what you are doing.
I need to replace my USB port and thanks for this bro
I'm using a temporary 606090 which I of coursed wired externally using the 10k resistor mod to the thermistor, and after doing this, I'm getting a hiss on the right ear, and I'm thinking this might be because of the wiring I'm using or maybe the 10k resistor is inducing this noise...
Any solution?
Never ended up ordering a battery here but looking around atm just remembering it again, think a logitech g900 replacement battery would work ? 51.30 x 33.80 x 6.60 mm measurements 1000 mah which is fine imo but not 100% sure what the plugsize is yet on the g900.
You didn’t get the 504050 1500mah battery you were talking about? Aren’t both batteries you ordered 803450? Would the 504050 one have fit inside the plastic bracket?
I noticed that I, too, have the iCue issue of not display battery status. Will the new battery stop charging and turn green when fully charged? I have been charging the new battery all day and still blinking amber.
Update, after a few days of being on the charger and periodic use, iCue finally decided to start recognizing the device and the indicator light now displays green when above 90% as intended. Cheers for the tutorial on replacement!
Your video helped me a lot for 2 years when I changed the battery !! I bought it in 2016.
Maybe you can help me now ?!
I accidentally dropped it on the floor last week (I forgot I had it on my head because it's so comfortable) and now it only works on the left side! I've opened it on the right and everything's plugged in, so what could be wrong? coil? magnet? I can't imagine a cable breaking during a fall. If you can help me that would be awesome ! Because it is charging I see the RGB on the right ... just no sound :(
I have done the same whit my Void Headset, but i have added 2x1000mah battery's in parallel one where the original battery was and one in the electronic pcb side , giving me 2000mah. Last few days before i have to charge them.
Bad advice regarding the thermostat - it will regulate charging, based on battery temperature. Also, depending on the plug, you may have been able to either remove the pins from the plug and attach the new battery without solder and heatshrink.
Did anyone try using the ressistor instead of the thir pin. I have a spare battary I could use here but its only got two pins.
so i see its been 3, nearly 4 years, since this upgrade. not sure if you have these headphones anymore but im curious. Did the upgrade last long term? i mean, did you have any issues down the road from the upgrade that caused the headset to stop working all together? did the other components handle the increase in power? also, did you notice an increase of heat, since it was a bigger battery? Id like to do this upgrade on my Void Pro SE Headset, bcuz you're correct, these things are super comfy. thanks @Adamant IT
Still going strong 👌
I'm more likely to replace the headset for the sake of having something newer and more modern at this point. Although last year I replaced the ear cups as well, which really helped with lasting comfort.
My Batterie has 3.6V, The LED is dark and the headset is dead. Do you have a hint for me about what can be defective, and if a repair is senseful?
Thanks for this great video. I saw as you opened the mic attachment. My void wireless headset's microphone arm does not hold it's place anymore. It's either all the way up for mute or if i slightly move it forward it falls all the way down. Any idea how to bring the tension back into it?
Hard to say without taking a look... it sounds like something is sitting correctly, and it needs re-assembling again.
@@Adamant_IT I'll pull it apart soon and take a look. The upgraded battery life looks like a fun project of it's own too lol.
