Sign in to disble this ad
Hi, I just got a Colorsound Tonebender and I can't work out how to get the thing open so I can put a battery in! There's no visible sign of screws and there's no kind of battery draw...
Anyone know? |

Now, i've stumbled into the battery problem. How do they expect you to fit a battery in that tiny gap!? |

I tried sticking a rechargable 9V battery in but it wouldn't fit, when i managed to force it in, it just damaged the battery, bending one of the little metal bits... I've just bent it back so I hope it still works... |

I don't know why there were no screws in mine though...
EDIT: I just tried this thing (I had tried it once before) and it rocks! I love that sound. I'll probably be getting a Way Huge Swollen Pickle MKII when it's out too.
