Worked on Norelco BG2040

I used these to change the batteries in my Norelco BG2040 using ifixit.com's manual. These batteries actually fit with a margin of a few mm. I used the pre-soldered tabs as a spring to maintain tension to hold the batteries in place as I bend them in a zigzag pattern. I can't get the charger to 100% charge these batteries yet, but I believe it's probably just a matter of draining them and then fully charging them. And the battery capacity is a few hundred mAh more, so the charger and circuitry might just not be designed to continue charging past the 750mAh that the original batteries had. In general they worked and I didn't have to solder. If you want to replace the BG2040's battery, it will work fine as long as you follow all the instructions in the ifixit guide.

Pros
  • Battery Type: Ni-MH; Battery voltage: 1.2V
Cons
  • Some little things
