Introduction
This guide shows how to replace the battery in a ASUS ROG Raikiri Pro controller. If your controller wont turn on, or the battery is draining too quickly, follow this guide for replacement.
A working battery should provide power to the controller. Sadly batteries don't last forever and might need to be replaced. If your battery seems to not hold a charge, or just won't charge at all, replacing the battery might be your best option.
If you realize you have a swollen battery, please handle it accordingly before moving forward.
